Biography

Hi, I'm Karen.  Following the beautiful births of my two sons I became a Childbirth Educator and Prenatal Yoga Teacher. For about 20 years I've worked with pregnant, birthing and postnatal women and their babies and families. I've taught pregnancy and postnatal yoga classes, active birth and breastfeeding workshops and many Calmbirth courses. I've attended births as a doula and shared the highs and lows of pregnancy, birth and parenting with over a thousand women and couples. Helping couples achieve a positive birth experience is my passion.Calmbirth offers so many solutions for couples seeking the ultimate childbirth preparation course. The material is a delight to present to the couples who attend my courses, as we delve into the possibilities and wonders of calm, joyful childbirth.From a mother who attended my Calmbirth course: "Before commencing the workshop, I was easily influenced by other mothers' negative birth experiences, which would instill self-doubt in my ability to birth my baby naturally and without fear. Calmbirth has been instrumental in giving me the direction of the type of birth my husband and I want, and the tools to achieve that goal, which is a calm, positive, natural birth. One of the concepts of Calmbirth is that the birthing process is a team effort, which consists of you, the mother, the father and, of course, baby. I would wholeheartedly recommend this workshop to any couple. Karen is also an amazing teacher, and so passionate about ensuring that mothers have a positive, calm birth experience. "I invite you to join me in Noosa on the Sunshine Coast with a small group of couples for a relaxed, fun and peaceful couple of days sharing in the Calmbirth experience.  It will change your birth and change your life - for the better!
