Burton Real Nappies

This event was the brainchild of Helen who runs local business Burton Real Nappies.
“Over the last 2 years I have frequently found parents are upset they are unable to attend our daytime events due to the work commitments of either themselves or their partners and thought a more social evening event would be perfect for them”We hope this event will give parents the information they need to make an informed decision on what nappies they choose for their child and will also bring together the best Staffordshire has to offer in terms of advice, baby classes and more and it is something we can replicate at a later date!”

Want a better birth? Then you should have a doula!
Good support by a trained birth partner throughout your pregnancy and labour makes a world of difference – dramatically lowers the risk of caesarean section, reduces the need for an epidural and most important of all, lets you stay in control and have a truly positive and empowering birth experience.
I believe that ALL women deserve a better birth and I specialise in previous birth trauma, VBAC, home water birth and first time parents.
I am a mum of four children and it was a natural birth after 3 previous caesarean sections made me realise that child birth could be amazing for every woman if she had the right kind of support and knowledge.
I am a member of Doula UK, I have public liability insurance, a current enhanced CRB check and have a long list of previous clients whom you are more than welcome to contact for references.
Independent midwives are fully qualified and registered midwives who choose to work outside of the National Health Service, in a self employed role. Midwives support women and their families through the life changing experience of childbirth and care for them throughout the antenatal, intranatal and postnatal periods. Independent Midwives provide this care on a one to one basis, forming a trusting foundation for an excellent relationship and smooth transition to parenthood.Within my role, I work very closely with another local Independent Midwife and together we offer a smooth service.
Claire Jarrett will be attending along with her colleague Amanda Garside.
