The birth of your baby is an important and special time, becoming new parents is both exciting and challenging. At Birth Talk we offer a range of private courses and workshops, which promote choice and options for birth and parenthood. Our sessions are all led by practising registered midwives with many years experience of childbirth education. If you would enjoy meeting other new parents to be in small, friendly and informal groups to share ideas and develop skills with a midwife or two on hand, Birth Talk is for you.
Here at Birth Talk we can provide Yoga for Pregnancy and Beyond, and in association with Hands on Holistics present a variety of complementary therapies together with baby massage.
All our courses, workshops and therapy sessions are held in a purpose built studio, designed to our own specification. The Birth Talk studio is a light, airy and comfortable contemporary space overlooking landscaped gardens located in Old Knighton, Leicester.
