Birth Prep Coaching

2-Hours of extra support

This is a session either via Zoom or face-to-face to review the principles and prepare for any type of birth. It includes preparing for the birth, mind-body connection, calming the breath, relaxation and visualisation, and the partner’s role in the birth. It is also an opportunity to review the tools and techniques learned in the course, and is tailored to your personal circumstance. A private 2-hour session costs $525  It is recommended that you only book in for this if you have already done our full Transform Your Birth course.

Caesarean Birth

Tracey also runs private caesarean preparation sessions. These sessions cover specific topics relevant when having a caesarean, such as: preparing for the birth, the role of the mind in birth, breathing physiology, relaxation and visualisation, and the partner’s role in the birth. Basically all the helpful tools from the Transform Your Birth course but tailored to a c-section. A private 2-hour session costs $525. When booking, you can specify that it is for a caesarean birth. 

Private Sessions

These private antenatal sessions are available for people who are high profile, private, or have specific needs and would prefer not to be in a group situation. Your private session involves 10 hours of childbirth and parenting preparation, utilising the specific teachings of Transform Your Birth, tailored to your circumstances. They can be offered face to face or via Zoom, and times will be scheduled by negotiation. The cost for these sessions is $2750.

FAQs

When is the ideal time to attend Transform Your Birth?

We see couples in all stages of their pregnancies; however, we find it is most beneficial for couples to come in their second trimester or at the beginning of their third trimester (approx. 30 weeks). This will allow enough time before your due date to practice the relaxation activities assigned to you by your Transform Your Birth Educator and fit in a Transform Your Birth pre-natal catch-up group visit. 

If you’re feeling particularly anxious about birth in your early pregnancy, please feel free to attend earlier. We also offer opportunities to revisit our birth classes prior to birth. 

If there is a higher chance you might need to have a caesarean section, please contact us before enrolling and we can assess your needs and potentially offer you an alternative form of birth preparation specific to your circumstances.

What to do when your preferred class is full

If your preferred Transform Your Birth class is booked out, please contact the office to be put on the waiting list as there may be a late cancellation. For any queries about class dates please email hello@transformparenting.com.au. Include your phone number, due date, and preferred appointment date in the email.

Is this course suitable for planned cesareans?

If you are planning a cesarean section, we recommend booking a private 2-hour session with Tracey. This session will cover specific topics relevant when having a cesarean, such as: preparing for the birth, the role of the mind in birth, breathing physiology, relaxation and visualisation, and the partner’s role in the birth. A private session costs $525.

What is your Refund Policy?

A non-refundable deposit of $150 is payable upon enrollment in the Transform Your Birth course. The remaining balance is refundable up until seven (7) days prior to the commencement of the course. A refund of the balance after this date will be considered in exceptional circumstances such as premature birthing, and is at the discretion of the Course Facilitator.

Do you offer Payment Plans?

Payment plans can be arranged for families struggling financially. Please contact hello@transformparenting.com.au after enrolment if you wish to organise a payment plan for the remaining $400 amount. Please note: A $30 administration fee will apply and all payments must be paid prior to commencing the class.

Can I claim on Insurance?

Tracey is a registered and accredited Childbirth Educator, however Private Health Insurers generally don’t provide rebates for Childbirth Educators, only midwives. We recommend contacting your health provider to check if it is claimable. You can then contact our office at hello@transformparenting.com.au to obtain a detailed invoice if required.
