South Manchester Antenatal Classes with `Sika

For parents in and around Greater Manchester

Hi! My name is Sika and I am a practicing midwife based in Greater Manchester. I qualified as a midwife in 2019 and since qualifying have worked within a variety of different settings within the NHS. I currently work in the community providing antenatal and postnatal care to women and their families.

Outside of work I love nothing more than a dog walk followed by spending time with my family and friends usually with some good food!

I truly love being a midwife and being able to provide evidence based knowledge to empower women and their families to make informed choices about their care.

I am so excited to be a part of the village midwife team and meet local families in the Greater Manchester area!

Upcoming Course Dates

Greater Manchester 1:1 Antenatal Courses at your home: £50/hour

We cover everything from The Village Midwife antenatal course but in a 1:1 setting. This means it can be tailored to you and what you want to cover and can work around your schedule because we usually teach the course at your home. The 1:1 course involves birth prep for a variety of different birth experiences, birth preferences for different scenarios and how to advocate for yourself and your birth partner. We also cover active birth and the biomechanics of the pelvis, caesarean preferences, and how to care for yourself during the postnatal period. We cover baby care including safe sleep, feeding baby (and all of your options/potential challenges) and how to dress/bathe/care for baby!

The 1:1 course is fully personalised which means that if there’s an aspect of antenatal prep that you’d like to cover more in depth or an aspect you’d prefer to leave out then I can work the course around you.

How long does the course take?

We can usually cover this in 9 hours (3 sessions of 3 hours each) but can tailor the length/amount of sessions around what you need! If you’d like to just do birth prep but not postnatal/feeding then we can usually cover this in 6 hours. Likewise if you’re happy with birth prep but want to discuss postnatal care/feeding/baby care specifically then we can usually do this over 2 sessions. Just let us know what you need!

Where do you cover?

I’m available to teach within 45 minutes of Chorsley, Greater Manchester
