Baby's Breath Prenatal Yoga

As a Yoga Teacher, Labour & Delivery Nurse and Lactation Consultant, teaching Prenatal Yoga allows me to blend my passion for yoga with my experience supporting women through pregnancy and birth. Classes are held in a private home studio - a peaceful, supportive environment where expectant mothers can ease common discomforts, build strength for the journey ahead, and develop breath awareness for focus and relaxation.

Integrated into each class is birth education, offering practical knowledge and tools to help you feel informed, confident and prepared for labour and the postpartum period. This is also a space to connect with other women, share experiences and explore questions about pregnancy, birth and early motherhood.

Classes are small, lighthearted and informative. Prior yoga experience is not needed.

Prenatal Yoga classes are typically held weekly on:
  • Mondays 6:30pm - 7:45pm
  • Wednesdays: 6:30pm - 7:45pm
  • Fridays: 12:30pm - 1:45pm
  • Saturdays: 12:30pm - 1:45pm

Private sessions are available on request.

 

Prenatal Yoga for Couples:

Private sessions are offered in our home studio for expectant couples to learn and practice breathing and movement specifically for labour and birth.  This is a great opportunity to connect with your partner to help prepare for the journey that lies ahead. These sessions are full of helpful tips and information to help prepare you for your big day.  Sessions are booked by appointment - please contact to schedule.

Baby's Breath Postnatal Yoga

 This Yoga class will invite both gentle movement and stillness and provide you with a bit of "me-time" amidst all the demands of motherhood. There will also be a focus on community as you (re)connect with other new moms in a supportive environment with the opportunity to share and gain insight on anything "baby and motherhood" related. Whether your baby was born more recently or longer ago, this class will suit your needs and you will leave feeling restored and refreshed!

Postnatal Yoga classes are held most Saturdays from 10:30-11:45am.

Baby's Breath Mom and Baby Yoga

Mom and Baby sessions are offered throughout the year. In this class you will explore gentle movement while connecting with your baby. This is also an opportunity to meet new mothers and their little ones and feel a sense of community as you navigate this new stage in your life. Yoga experience is not necessary and feeding, changing diapers, consoling crying babies is all part of the class - so please, no worries!

Breastfeeding Support

As a board certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I have helped support mothers in their breastfeeding journey for over 30 years. Breastfeeding is a natural process but can also present unique challenges for new mothers. Support and guidance during the first few days and weeks after birth provides the greatest benefit and chance of success - this is my specialty! Whether it’s a difficulty with latching, concerns over milk supply, or simply the need for an experienced assessment and encouragement, I can help you and your baby get off to a great start.

 

Breastfeeding Education Session

Group prenatal breastfeeding education sessions are held throughout the year to help you prepare and understand what lies ahead. Join in to feel more prepared for your upcoming breastfeeding journey! You will learn tips for latching your baby, how to tell if your baby is getting enough, learn all about antenatal hand expression and so much more! These sessions are interactive and allow for the opportunity to ask questions to a certified lactation consultant.

All participants receive a colostrum collection kit.

Sessions are typically held every other month on either a Tuesday or Thursday evening from 7:00 to 8:30pm

Next sessions are scheduled for:

Tuesday June 23rd

Birth Preparation

Bringing another human being into this world is a BIG deal!  How your birth story unfolds is not always within your control. Having had the opportunity to support thousands of mothers through labour and birth, I will work with you and your partner to help you feel more calm, confident and prepared for your birth experience.

Private Session:

Each session typically runs around 2 hours in the comfort of your home. During this time, we will discuss what you might expect in those last weeks of pregnancy, the day of the birth as well and what to expect in those first days with your newborn.  Your session will be tailored to your needs and can include:

  • Information on the different stages of labour
  • Breathing and relaxation techniques
  • Pain management options
  • What to expect in your birth setting
  • Possible interventions during labour and birth
  • Caesarean births
  • Breastfeeding
  • Newborn care
