Modern antenatal classes coming soon to Cheddar, offering expert guidance and hands-on support throughout your pregnancy journey. Prepare confidently for labour, birth, and beyond with our personalised, up-to-date approach! I’m Lily, a mum of two boys on a mission to help families have a positive and empowering experience as they prepare for their birth, babies, and beyond. During my first pregnan

cy, I enrolled in an antenatal class and although I made some wonderful friends, I soon realised I was unprepared for the realities of labour, birth, and early motherhood. My goal is to empower families to step confidently into this next chapter of life, equipped with the knowledge and tools they need—without the midnight Googling!

Such special words from a truly special couple. I think this sums up so much of what I want people to get from the course.

To understand birth without feeling frightened by it. To know what your options are. To feel able to ask questions and advocate for yourself. And, ultimately, to finish the five weeks feeling much more prepared for birth and bringing your baby home.

Thank you Amy & Josh. I’m so pleased the course gave you that confidence 🤍

The next course starts this November in Cheddar and bookings are now open. If you’d like to come along, you can find all the details through the link in my bio.

Preparing for birth and parenthood doesn’t have to feel lonely 🤍

It’s so special seeing a group of local parents come together, who are all preparing for the same huge change in their lives.

Antenatal classes are, of course, about learning. Understanding birth, exploring your options, practising practical skills, and feeling prepared for those early days with your baby.

But they’re also about connection. Having people to chat to, laugh with, ask questions alongside and have in your corner once all those babies arrive!

Building your community while you build your confidence.

Come and join your local antenatal & hypnobirthing course in Cheddar.

✨ Friendly, relaxed group classes
✨ Evidence based information
✨ Understanding labour & birth, exploring your options, hypnobirthing, breastfeeding & newborn care
✨ Confidence for you and your birth partner

Next course starts in November, we’d love to have you there.

3 things I’d do differently if I was giving birth for the first time again…

1. Stay at home for longer.
A lot longer. I was so excited to meet my baby that I rushed to swap my home comforts and cosy environment for somewhere unfamiliar.
Knowing what I know now about birth physiology, I’d enjoy as much time at home as possible without feeling the need to “get” anywhere or “do” anything.

2. Stop thinking.
I was so in my head, I kept thinking about how I was told “upright, forward and open” was the best position to be in despite my body screaming at me that it wasn’t what was comfortable. I’d allow myself to move intuitively and instinctively, trusting my body to move freely.

3. Lock myself in the bathroom.
There was a point towards the end of my labour where I remember thinking, I just want to lock myself in the bathroom. Doing it again, I absolutely would. I’d give myself space, time to be alone, get grounded, regroup and have the privacy I was craving to allow my labour to unfold undisturbed.

The more I learn about birth physiology, the more I realise my body was trying to tell me exactly what it needed. I just wasn’t listening.

There is now just one space left on August’s Antenatal & Hypnobirthing Course (for a birth team of two). 🤍

Classes are kept small, with a maximum of 6 couples, so there’s time for every question, lots of discussion and a lovely sense of community by the end.

If you’re pregnant, live near Cheddar and are due over the next few months, I’d love to welcome you. The course begins on Monday 3rd August.

Side note… can you hear my son shouting “Mummy!” in the background? Wondering why I was standing there talking to myself! 😂

If you have any questions at all, just send me a message. I’d love to chat.

Bookings are now open for the last course of the year! Ready to feel prepared, confident and excited for birth and parenthood? Join us in Nov/Dec!

Due before then? There is still time to join us in August!

Here what you have to look forward to:

📚 The Birth Plan
Where will you give birth? What are your pain relief options? What happens if you’re offered an induction? This class gives you the knowledge and confidence to make choices that feel right for you.

🎉 The Big Day
Understand what’s happening in your body during each stage of labour, and learn practical tools, techniques and positions to help things flow more smoothly.

🧿 Hypnobirthing Workshop
Evidence shows hypnobirthing can reduce pain, shorten labour and boost confidence. Most importantly, it helps you trust your body and stay calm, however birth unfolds.

🤱🏼 Breastfeeding Workshop
From the incredible benefits to the common challenges, positions and tips, this class gives you everything you need to get started with that liquid gold.

🐣 Newborn Care
Your baby is here, so what next? Learn the essentials to care for your newborn with confidence and avoid those midnight Google spirals.

Floating pregnancy relaxation is back with a bang 💥

Join us next time in the beautifully warm pool and take the weight off, quite literally. These sessions are designed to help you unwind, ease aches and pains, and feel lighter in both body and mind.

✨Lighter body, calmer mind✨
Water supports your bump, easing pressure on your back, hips and joints. A guided meditation helps you switch off and connect with your body and baby.

✨Better sleep and more energy✨
The combination of warmth, buoyancy and gentle movement helps relax tight muscles, reduce swelling and boost circulation. Leave feeling refreshed, with improved sleep after evening sessions.

✨Perfect if you are considering a water birth✨
These sessions help you build positive, calming associations with being in warm water, which can be really helpful if you are planning to use a birth pool on the day.

✨A friendly space✨
Each session is quiet, calm and deeply relaxing, with time to float, breathe and chat. You do not need to be a strong swimmer. The pool is shallow enough to stand and suitable for all stages of pregnancy. It is also a lovely chance to meet other local mums and take some time just for you.

There are limited spaces available, book yours at lilyandlife.co.uk. Hope to see you there!
