About PowerBirth

No two births are the same. We give you knowledge and strategies to navigate your birth, your way

Right now, you may be feeling:

➔ Worried that you don’t know what to expect during labour and be wondering how you’ll handle it when the time comes.

➔ Unsure about what’s on offer to support you in labour, whether this is with or without medication.

➔ Unclear on what to expect and be craving a deeper understanding of the process.

➔ Worried about making the right decisions for your birth and whether you’ll be able to advocate for yourself in the birth space.

➔ Concerned that your birth partner won’t know how to support you effectively or might feel unsure about their role in the process.

We get it. We’ve got you. 

You will learn:

✓ The essential roles of your birth hormones 

✓ How to set up your environment to positively impact your labour

✓ The different stages of labour and specific strategies for each phase

✓ How to reframe contractions and understand the purpose of pain and intensity 

✓ Your options for working with pain, both natural and medicated

✓ The different ways you and your baby may be monitored in labour and the pros and cons of various approaches 

✓ Optimal positions for making space in your pelvis

✓ Key breathwork techniques to help you increase relaxation and work with pain 

✓ The specific roles of your birth support person and how they too can build trust in the process and be confident in you

✓ Realistic insights into potential complications and what to expect should they unfold 

✓ Tips on how to advocate for your birth choices and working collaboratively with your chosen care provider 

✓ Research backed strategies for supporting your newborn baby adapt from womb to world

Whether birth has you feeling excited, uncertain or even scared, your feelings are normal and valid.

Here’s what we want for you:

➔ A positive and memorable birth experience, regardless of how the experience unfolds.

➔ A deep connection with your body and to learn to trust how strong you really are. 

➔ For both you and your support partner to feel well-prepared, knowing each of your roles and how to show up for each other. 

➔ Strategies for working with pain and intensity, ensuring you can approach your birth with practical tools and a sense of control.

➔ The confidence and skills to communicate effectively with your birth team, ensuring your preferences and needs are understood and respected.

➔ To look back on your birth experience without regrets or ‘what ifs’.

What are PowerBirth families saying?

  • I just finished the Powerbirth class in Melbourne with Jade. I left not only feeling empowered and informed, but actually looking forward to my birthing journey and curious to see what my labour and birth will be like, and so excited to meet my baby. It is a very scary journey to embark on, but I feel so much more prepared after attending Powerbirth with Jade. Thank you!

    Michelle Wilson

  • If you’re looking for a birth class, look no further!! Very informative and incredibly empowering. We felt ready and confident for Bubs arrival after visiting the PowerBirth Class. Highly recommended.

    Miriam Daicos

  • These classes book out for a reason! I highly recommend the in-person PowerBirth class. The session is extremely informative for soon to be parents and covers all areas of labour.

    Kayla Kettle

  • If it wasn't for this workshop I wouldn't have had as much belief in myself to be capable of birthing in such a way and so for that I cannot thank Beth enough for the most moving and life changing experience of my life. If you are after factual, concise and education with up to date information and presented by a true professional then this is for you. Beth thank you from the bottom of our hearts for what you empowered us to be capable of.

  • Great class! When you go to one of these classes usually you feel overwhelmed with all the information given but Beth made it so enjoyable and easy to understand! She also gave us a take home pack we can refer to incase we forget anything. My partner also found it very informative as Beth gives your support person great tips and information to get you both ready for birth! Highly recommend!

  • Yes. Booking covers you and your chosen support person.

  • While PowerBirth does address unplanned caesarean birth and what to expect, the primary focus is on labour and the different birth outcomes that can occur along the way. Therefore this isn’t the best resource for you if you already know you will be having a caesarean birth.

  • As part of this course, you receive access to our online ‘Breastfeeding Basics’ class, which provides an overview of breastfeeding and normal newborn behaviour. However, the main focus of PowerBirth is on providing you a comprehensive labour and birth preparation offering that deep dives into what you need to know to set yourself up for a positive experience.
