Wendover, Buckinghamshire Postnatal Course
A recent testimonial from a client doing our postnatal course in Wendover:
"Don’t be afraid to boast about what Sophie offers the course that no one else does…. She’s a midwife, a mother, a sleep coach and guru of all things slings. She’s warm, approachable and a fountain of knowledge. That combo is very hard to beat."
The Village Midwife Postnatal Course on it’s own: £185
The Village Midwife Postnatal Course plus a postnatal visit with Sophie: £250
You can also pay by £85 deposit below and pay the rest after your baby has arrived
You can also book on an additional ‘new mum check up’ with Chrissie Edley, specialist women’s health physiotherapist when booking your postnatal course. This means you get a special discounted price of £80 which you pay Chrissie directly. Her appointments are in Halton and Princes Risborough!
What’s the postnatal course all about?
The postnatal course takes place on weekday mornings at The Village Midwife HQ in Wendover - but of course with the babies!
It primarily gives you the time and space to discuss you and your postnatal recovery and the transition you’re going through – everything else is about your baby, but this is about YOU! We reflect on how you’re doing in a supportive group of other local mums with similar aged babies. Partners are welcome to some of the sessions, but there is no pressure to do so, if you’re back at work.
We now have the option to book either the postnatal course on it’s own or the postnatal course plus a 2 hour check in session once your baby is born with Sophie - find out more about these below. These are very popular and booking it earlier means you get priority over any new clients once your baby has been born as I have limited availability - when we arrange a time that works well for a visit!
In Buckinghamshire our postnatal course is 10 sessions long and spans from 4-8 weeks after baby is born until your baby is 6 months old.
It involves:
a session with a counsellor to discuss postnatal emotions and the transition to becoming a parent
a slings & carriers session plus free sling hire for a month and ongoing support with slings as your baby grows
a session on babies’ sleep and how it changes in the first year plus simple strategies to help
a session with a local lactation consultant and cranial osteopath on feeding where you can ask any questions you want to and discuss your feeding journey
a baby massage session with a local baby massage teacher
a session all about self-care with a local life coach
a local nutritionist talks about postnatal depletion and what to prioritise in your diet in the postnatal period
The amazing photographer I work with takes photos of you with your baby - to make sure you get in the picture!
Regular check-ins throughout the course and a chance to reflect on how you’re doing at all stages
Plus you get ongoing support from me with anything you need!
When you do a Village Midwife postnatal course, you also get access to one of our first aid sessions at a discounted price with Sammy from Happy Hearts First Aid, find out more here
“I originally booked the postnatal course as I thought it might be useful but actually it has been one of the highlights of early maternity leave. It gave us a safe and judgement free place to come where I didn’t have to worry if he cried or needed feeding or changing and gave me a reason to get dressed and out of the house in those early weeks of parenthood. I really looked forward to each session. Thanks to doing both courses I now have lots of Mum friends that I’ve been meeting up with which has been invaluable.”

Session with Sophie (Midwife)
This usually involves feeding support, help with anything to do with your newborn such as tips to improve sleep/settling, a chance to debrief about your birth experience (for you and your birth partner) plus any help with postnatal recovery you need - plus ongoing support via WhatsApp! If you add this option on when booking, you get priority booking for a postnatal visit from Sophie and book this in via a calendar link once your baby is born. You can also book this in during the postnatal course if you want to go through feeding, using different slings and carriers in a 1:1 setting or if you want to have a birth debrief
