“I’m now 38 weeks pregnant and my husband and I are getting very excited! We’ll probably have more to say about how the Bradley method prepared us for labour and birth once we’ve actually been through it, but what we can say now, is that Lillian’s support, positivity, passion, excellent teaching and rigorously designed course content have been invaluable part of our pregnancy journey (especially in these strange times with the pandemic still ongoing). We started the course when I was at 29 weeks and didn’t know anything about labour, childbirth or newborn care. After only two weeks, we were already amazed at how much we’d learned and how much calmer we felt about the prospect of the labour and all the many things to prepare for. At first, we weren’t sure how the classes would be over Zoom, but it was just as easy to connect and learn online as in person. The classes with Lillian were such an essential part of our journey through this pregnancy, giving us confidence and helping us to now feel prepared and calm. The classes are not only packed with important knowledge, but engaging and fun, mixing videos and varying the content so that you have time to integrate all the information. We also enjoyed the session with Felipe, and hearing from past students about their experiences of labour and birth. We really looked forward to the classes every week, and can’t recommend them enough to any expecting couple, particularly, but not only, during these times when there are less resources available to expecting couples. Thank you Lillian!” ~Tasha & Jessy, Norwich
“Lillian teaches a really fantastic course, with a great workbook and fun activities in class to really help the material sink in. Now armed with in-depth knowledge about the physiology of labor, relaxation tricks, and coaching tips, we feel ready for labor – and everything that comes after it. Thank you Lillian!” ~ Clara & Sultan, London
“The course is wonderful. We learned a lot about pregnancy, labour and breastfeeding in the course. The sharing of some formal students makes us more confident for the coming labour. One comment is that sometimes it is better to ask students to take turns to answer questions. We are not used to answer/ask questions proactively.” ~Chandler & Jane, Southampton
“My perception of childbirth has changed from seeing it as a fearful experience that I couldn’t possibly achieve to a natural experience that I am so excited and positive about. I feel the Bradley classes have really deepened my knowledge about the antenatal period, childbirth, breastfeeding and aftercare. We are so happy to have made this investment (which was more than worth the 12 weeks). Thank you Lillian.” ~Ash & Linda, Southampton
“Thank you very much for all your time and wisdom. I am so glad we found the Bradley info when we did helping us to prepare. Without having gone through those exercises in the book I would have been completely unprepared and out of my depth!” ~ Catherine & David, London
“The course was very informative with lots of examples and exercises. I don’t even know how I could have thought that by simply refusing painkillers I would have a natural birth! We learned so much from Lillian…I am now fully confident that I can have a natural birth, empowered by the knowledge and with the support of my wonderful husband.” ~ Tunde & Ken, London
“We can’t thank Lillian and this course enough for helping us go into labour feeling so empowered and prepared! Because of this course I understood how to mentally and physically prepare my body for giving birth and my husband was prepared to coach and encourage me through labour as well as advocate for our chosen birth plan. Knowing that he and I were equally educated, prepared and completely on the same page regarding how we wanted the birth to go brought me so much peace during the main event. He was able to advocate for me and help me stay focused on our birth plan because he knew what was happening in my body rather than being a nervous bystander. Our birth would not have gone as smoothly and calmly had we not taken this course.”
