Having problems with message search?
Michelle, could I book a place please? I'll be going more in my capacity of antenatal teacher, than parent, but will probably have a baby in tow. Are there any creche facilities on the day/arrangements for kids?

Hi All,
Firstly I would just like to welcome to some of the new members that have recently joined this group.
Now I want to tell you about the forthcoming Sheffield Homebirth Conference which is taking place on the 29 March, at St Mary's, Bramall Lane, Sheffield. There are local midwives and others coming from all over the UK to share their skills and knowledge and even the Head of Midwifery in Sheffield wants to come and give a local update.
There will be a raffle on the day which includes a birth pool in a box and kit, 2 pregnancy and birth homeopathy kits and a hypnobirthing course. There will be taster sessions running over the lunch period including Natal hypnotherapy, osteopathy, Chi-Reflexology, Massage, Reiki and Seichem, Reconnective Healing and Indian Head Massage. Not to mention the fantastic agenda we have planned as follows:
