Looking back through the photos we’ve been sent over the years always fills me with gratitude.

These are just some of the births we’ve been privileged to support since 2006. Behind every photo is a unique story of strength and love and the incredible moment of meeting your child.

To every family who has trusted us, shared a photo, or told us their birth story — thank you. It is a privilege to play a small part in such a special time in your lives.

Seeing your beautiful babies and proud smiles never gets old 🤍

If you’ve got a TENS birth story & photo you’d like to share, we’d love to hear from you 🤍

6 convos you need to have before baby arrives 🤍

1. Who’s handling what at home when we’re both tired?
This is really about teamwork and expectations. Newborn life isn’t 50/50 — it’s more like ‘who can do what, when it’s possible.’ Talk through the non-negotiables (dishes, laundry, rubbish, pets, meals). The goal isn’t perfection, it’s staying on the same team — and remembering that ‘good enough’ is more than enough for a while. Things will be slower and messier, and that’s okay.

2. How are we handling food when no one has time or energy to cook?
Will you meal prep, use freezer meals, or do takeaways sometimes? Who’s in charge of snacks, water, breastfeeding support food? Hunger and tiredness quickly lead to overwhelm, so a loose plan helps more than you’d think.

3. What does nighttime actually look like for us?
Will you both wake? Do shifts? If breastfeeding, what does partner support look like — nappies, settling baby, water, keeping lights low? Agreeing ‘we’re both in this, even if roles look different’ changes everything.

4. Who is allowed to visit, when, and for how long?
Visitors can be lovely… or draining. Decide early: no-visitor window, short visits, or text before coming. And who can say “not today” when you’re too tired to decide?

5. What do we do when one of us feels overwhelmed or touched out?
There will be moments where everything feels like too much — crying baby, no sleep, sensory overload. Agree on your ‘reset plan’: walk with baby, handover without questions, or five minutes alone in the shower. Catching it early makes a huge difference.

6. How do we stay on the same team?
New parenthood can slip into ‘me vs you’ or keeping score. Check in with each other, speak gently when tired, and remind yourselves you’re both adjusting — not competing.

You don’t need perfect answers. Just the conversation before you’re in the middle of the beautiful chaos. 🤍

Such a lovely way to learn to settle baby 🤍

You don't need a cupboard full of baby gadgets to connect with your baby.

Sometimes the most meaningful moments happen when you simply slow down, switch off the distractions, and focus on each other.

My Baby Sensory & Massage Course is designed to help you understand your baby a little better, build your confidence as a parent, and learn practical ways to soothe and settle your little one.

Together we'll explore:

• Gentle massage techniques that support relaxation, digestion, and sleep
• Sensory activities that encourage connection and development
• Ways to recognise and respond to your baby's cues
• Practical tools for those unsettled moments
• A welcoming space where you can learn, ask questions, and meet other parents

There is no pressure to get everything right.

Just an opportunity to spend quality time with your baby, learn some new skills, and leave feeling a little more confident than when you arrived.

I'd love to have you join us.
Next 6 week course: 4th August - 7th Sept
