Recently done a taster session of Natural Labour & Birth and we really found Louise easy going and informative. Being first time parents, it is a bit overwhelming all the online classes advertised on social media but glad to book the bundle classes with TheHonestMidwife

100% reccommend
Louise makes the classes super informative and fun. My husband is not normally one to sit through anything like this but he was actually looking forward to all of her classes. We learned a lot and as first time parents we feel like we are going into our birth with all the information we could have learned beforehand. Her classes are very easy to book in as they are super regular (unlike nhs etc.) I can only reccomend her classes, worth every penny!

Absolutely worth it, sad my bundle is over!
I have just finished the Labour and Birth Essentials Class Bundle and absolutely loved it. 100% worth the money. Induction class and Feeding class were my favourite, very very informative, especially as someone who knew zero about feeding a baby. I am a bit of an introvert and couldn't fit in the NHS run baby classes due to work scheduling so found the flexibility of these classes perfect. Baby is due 10th May, and hoping to do a couple more of the postnatal classes when I get the chance, eg, weaning and sleep etc. Thank you so much for the info and support Louise!

Natural labour class
First antenatal class, wasn't sure what to expect really.
Found the class really good and informative, Louise explained things clearly and well. No sugar coating things, she was honest but not to a point that I'm terrified of what's to come.
Husband watched too and he found the parts about birthing partners and what to do in early labour helpful

Free Natural Labour & Birth class - Recommend!
We attended the free Natural Labour & Birth class and were very impressed. The class was very informative, easy to follow and the "chatty/humorous" approach kept us engaged. We have experienced a few online, free antenatal classes by another company and felt that sometimes we were being "talked at" and often "zoned out". I do hope The Honest Midwife classes are soon funded by the NHS as we would love to do more, however cannot afford to do all we would like to. Thank you for your time and knowledge.

Excellent antenatal class
Excellent antenatal class! So many practical tips on labour and what to do at each stage of labour, for example when you need to go to hospital. Very engaging speaker and lots of props to help understanding! Thank you

Greatest experience and knowledge
I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the invaluable experience I had attending your Natural Birth and Labor class. Your expertise, warmth, and dedication truly made a difference in my journey towards childbirth.
I particularly appreciated the comprehensive approach you took in covering various aspects of natural labor and birth, from understanding the physiology of labor to practical coping techniques and postpartum care. Your emphasis on empowering parents with knowledge and confidence was truly inspiring.
The interactive nature of the class, with opportunities for questions and discussions, fostered a supportive environment where everyone felt heard and validated. Your ability to address concerns with patience and compassion created a sense of trust and reassurance among the attendees.
Furthermore, the resources and tools provided throughout the course were incredibly helpful in preparing for the birthing experience and beyond. From relaxation techniques to birthing positions, I feel better equipped to navigate the journey ahead thanks to your guidance.
Overall, I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to participate in your Natural Birth and Labor class. Your passion for supporting families during this transformative time shines through in every aspect of your teaching. Thank you for empowering me with knowledge and confidence as I prepare for the birth of my child.

Louise was FANTASTIC
Louise was informative, and had a great sense of humour. Me and my partner were well informed about natural labour and birth. We also loved the diagrams and how she wrote on the screen...it was fun.
Thanks Louise!

Absolutely amazing class by Louise
Absolutely amazing class by Louise, so much relatable guidance and examples and such a fun sense of humour! Really understood everything thoroughly and I’m now excited for labour rather than petrified!! 2 more classes booked can’t wait!

Great Class!
Had such a brilliant experience! Louise was very informative and we loved her relaxed attitude. I wasn't sure what to expect as it was a free class, but it was really helpful and I've now signed up for two more of the classes. Louise put us at ease from the very beginning and explained the process in a way which made it easy for myself and my husband to understand!

Pregnant with my first baby and really no idea where to start, this session was a great introduction and taught me very useful things already!! We will definitely be booking more classes. I already feel more relaxed.
