Village Offerings
It Takes A Village
At Holding Her Space we are passionate about ensuring our village is equipped with the tools they need to feel nurtured, listened to and better informed for birth and beyond. Pregnancy and Birth are significant rights of passages, through millions of years, for many cultures around the world. One of many delicate transitions from girl to woman, womanhood into motherhood, boy to man, manhood to fatherhood to name the most prominent.
Educational Pop Ups
Our Pop Ups give our community an opportunity to be up, close and personal with our team providing on the spot support, signposting, advice and information. Find us in community centres and hubs, events, clinics and more!
Birth Prep Courses
Education is one of our most essential and impactful tools as birth workers. We understand the value of being ‘aware’ during pregnancy. The awareness of your rights, awareness of your body and its changes, awareness of your environment and its impact on the birthing body, understanding of the maternity system and navigating through it, and awareness of your emotions, feelings, and hormones helping you or hindering you during birth.
A mother’s intuition is her greatest gift during pregnancy and birth, and a little added awareness can go a long way. We provide courses to inform mums about their choices, resulting in safer and empowered births.
Our courses include information on the following:
- Places of Birth
- Natural Relief Options
- Boundaries during pregnancy and birth
- Cultural and Traditional Birth Techniques
- Birth Planning/Preparing
- Supportive therapies
- Birth physiology
- A Doula's role during birth
- The importance of Debriefing and Counselling after trauma
- Traditional Postnatal Recovery
