Parenthood is a complex yet extremely rewarding world.

Unfortunately, the nurturing of the postpartum parent is not often addressed.

The transition into parenthood is a phenomenal experience. It's so exciting, however it can also feel demanding, overwhelming and full of uncertainty – amongst the beauty and joy it brings with it. This is a universal phenomenon, but the nurturing of the newborn parent is not often addressed.

The 'Being a Parent' course is all about you as the newborn parent.

Replace the anxiety & overwhelm with confidence so you can smoothly transition into Parenthood.

Be armed with the knowledge with what to expect in your early postpartum days, your Fourth Trimester. The course focus is on the emotional, physical and relational changes that come with the transition into parenthood.

Kind words

"Very relatable as new parents"

MJ & Steve

Thank you so much Pip! Very relatable as new parents .

"Great discussion about what's normal"

Sarah Rankin

It was great to understand what's 'normal' during the postpartum recovery period. Pip facilitated the zoom call well, it's not an easy thing to do! She encouraged discussion, while not putting people on the spot when they didn't want to talk. Thank you very much for an enjoyable session in our Parents Centre class.

"How hard being a mum is"

Michelle S.

Topics that were discussed increased the awareness of how hard being a mum is. The slides and Fourth Trimester discussion were great. Pip was also really lovely and open.

"Really informative"

Kaus

Thank you, really informative. Appreciate your support.

"The challenges of motherhood"

Amy Gardiner

Pip was fantastic, she made us all feel at ease so that we all felt comfortable to open up and as a result we got a lot more from the session. Sharing what we were finding difficult as a group was great, it helped us to see the challenges of motherhood. I appreciate her reaching out to me after the session to check I was OK too.

"Made me more aware"

Sam

This made me more aware of the tools and resources available to me and my baby. Thank you.

"Great class, super helpful!"

Emma

Great class! Thank you so much. It was super helpful!
