Ana Bradley - Pregnancy, Birth & Beyond

✨ Welcome! I am Ana Bradley—a qualified Perinatal (Ante-/Postnatal) Educator, former Daisy Foundation teacher, BBC Breakfast guest, and mother of four—and I run Pregnancy, Birth & Beyond to help expectant parents feel calm, confident, and genuinely excited for birth and early parenthood.

I provide evidence-based antenatal classes Stretford and Urmston parents trust, welcoming couples and solo expectant mums from across Stretford, Urmston, and South Manchester into friendly, supportive small groups.

Whether you are looking for Active Birthing Classes, comprehensive birth preparation, or practical newborn care, I offer realistic, non-judgmental education tailored to your choices.

My Current Classes & Workshops:

• 🧘 Active Birthing Classes: A gentle 6-week term for expectant mums from around 14 weeks of pregnancy, combining movement, pregnancy yoga Stretford and Urmston mums love, active birth education, hypnobirthing techniques, and guided pregnancy relaxations (held at Humphrey Park Community Centre in Urmston).

  • Option 1: Book the 1-hour class for £60 per term.

As a first-time parent, it is completely normal to feel anxious about labour, feeding, or how your birth partner can best support you. This class is designed to take the fear away, answer every question, and build a reassuring local community. You can even access my free online resources for extra guidance on breathing techniques and feeding!

If you are wondering where to find hypnobirthing classes South Manchester couples recommend, how to prepare for labour with a birth partner, or where to attend baby care and infant feeding workshops before birth, I am here to guide you every step of the way.
