Childbirth educators need to impart and facilitate knowledge and awareness to clients in preparation for pregnancy, labour and motherhood. This requires a holistic understanding of the whole childbearing experience, and a dynamic approach to sharing that knowledge. Written by an experienced National Childbirth Trust teacher, this unique book covers every aspect of antenatal and parentcraft education, emphasising group work and reflective practice. The practical approaches are given a sound theoretical underpinning, and the book is evidence-based and well-referenced.
