Ethos


I believe in positive birth, in whatever form it may take.

I believe in the power and strength of women.

I believe that women should have autonomy over their bodies, making choices that are right for them at the time, free from coercion or bias.

I believe in the magic of oxytocin and that if gently nurtured, this shy, delicate hormone could transform women's birth experiences everywhere.

I believe that evolution has made our bodies capable to birth our babies, and to do so with (actual!) love.

I believe in dispelling the myths told for generations, about women's capabilities and ability to birth.

I believe that there can be many complex life experiences, events and histories that can contribute to someone's choices in their healthcare - making people's choices different. As long as choices are well informed, I believe that they should be respected by others, without judgement or coercion.

I believe that the body and mind are intertwined.

I believe that being active and working with your anatomy, your body and your mind helps your baby to move through you and into the world (water helps with this!!).

"Each time a woman stands up for herself, without knowing it possibly, without claiming it, she stands up for all women."
