Wild Hare Antenatal: Monthly Workshops
Wild Hare’s monthly workshops offer a calm, supportive space to explore the parts of pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood that often get overlooked. Each session focuses on a single theme — from identity and induction to complex birth, newborn sleep, partner skills, and birth planning — giving you time to slow down, reflect, and build confidence in a way that feels grounded and manageable.
These workshops are small‑group, emotionally intelligent, and rooted in evidence. They’re designed for anyone who wants clarity, reassurance, and practical tools without pressure or judgement. Whether you’re preparing for birth, navigating early parenthood, or processing a previous experience, each session offers space to breathe, ask questions, and feel more connected to yourself and your growing family.
Pricing - £30 per person

5th May
Identity & Motherhood
A steady, nurturing space for anyone in pregnancy or early parenthood who feels the quiet (or not‑so‑quiet) shift in who they are.
This workshop gives you time to pause, make sense of what’s changing, and reconnect with the parts of yourself that can get lost in the noise of early parenthood.
Together we explore identity, values, and the emotional landscape of becoming a parent — so you leave feeling more grounded, more yourself, and more able to meet this new chapter with clarity and compassion.
23rd June
Understanding Induction
A clear, balanced session for first‑ and second‑time parents who want to understand why induction is offered and what it actually involves.
We look at the reasons induction might be suggested, the different methods used, and what each one feels like in real life.
You’ll leave with a grounded sense of your options, the questions that matter, and how to make decisions that feel right for you and your baby.
7th July
When Birth Gets More Complicated
A calm, supportive workshop for anyone feeling anxious about unexpected pathways or hoping for a different experience after a previous birth.
We explore what “more complicated” can look like in real life, the choices that still belong to you, and the ways you can stay grounded and informed even when plans change.
You’ll leave with clearer understanding, steadier confidence, and a sense of agency you can carry into whatever your birth journey holds.
A realistic, reassuring guide for anyone approaching birth or finding their feet in the first few weeks postpartum.
We explore what those early days often look and feel like in real life — the feeding, the sleep (or lack of it), the emotions, the identity shifts, and the practical rhythms that help you find your way.
You’ll leave with grounded expectations, simple tools that actually work, and a steadier sense of what’s normal as you and your baby learn each other.
4th August
Navigating the Early Days
A gentle, practical session for anyone in late pregnancy or the first weeks postpartum who wants to understand what normal newborn rhythms really look like.
We explore early sleep patterns, feeding cues, soothing, and the instinctive behaviours babies use to feel safe in the world.
You’ll leave with grounded expectations, simple strategies that support everyone’s rest, and a clearer sense of what’s normal as you and your baby settle into life together.
1st September
Newborn Sleep & Behaviour in the Fourth Trimester
6th October
Partner Skills for Birth
A confidence‑building workshop for partners who want to feel clear, capable, and genuinely useful during labour and birth.
We explore practical tools that make a real difference — from physical comfort measures and positioning to emotional support, advocacy, and reading the rhythm of labour.
You’ll leave with a clear sense of your role, the skills to support your partner through each stage, and the confidence to be a steady, grounding presence on the day.
3rd November
Birth Planning & Decision Making
An empowering session for shaping flexible, meaningful birth preferences and understanding the options available to you.
We explore what matters most to you, how different choices can shape your experience, and the questions that help you stay informed along the way.
You’ll leave with a plan that feels personal, adaptable, and rooted in your values — and the confidence to make decisions that feel right for you, whatever path your birth takes.
