​​Hi, I’m Joy - your local birth preparation expert!

 

For over 20 years I’ve supported parents across Central Scotland (and beyond) to prepare for birth, navigate early parenthood, and find calm after anxiety, fear or trauma.

​

My antenatal courses and 1:1 sessions are relaxed, practical and completely judgement-free - because there’s no “right way” to do pregnancy, birth or parenting.  There’s only your way, and I’ll help you feel confident in it.

​

Whether you’re excited, overwhelmed, or just full of questions, you’ll find a safe, supportive space here.
