Postnatal recovery just got easier.
Clear, trustworthy support for postnatal recovery is hard to find. Like, really hard. We know, we’re mamas too.
That’s why we created a bite-sized online course, available via web and app.
Our aim is to support and empower you to not only fully recover from birth, but feel and function better than before.
We launch September 2020, sign up below to get updates.

+ When can I start the course?
Anytime. If possible, it would be great to start during pregnancy so you start becoming familiar with the self-care principles and can creating healthy routines straight away. Our nutrition and relaxation modules can be started as soon as you have given birth whereas some of the movement and massage exercises you will need to wait until your 6 week check. However, there is plenty content you can do to relieve aches and pains from feeding and holding baby straight away. Our tips & tricks section is also filled with advice from other mamas to help get you through those first weeks.
+ How long is the course?
The course is deliberately broken down into short modules, meaning you can follow it at your own pace. We decided to make all of the content available to you as soon as you buy the course so you can pick and choose where you want to start, and personalise your postpartum journey. You will learn self-care tools that will help you for life, and all of the content will be there for you especially if and when you decide to have another baby.
+ I don’t have any childcare, how can I do the exercises?
All of the videos are bite-size in length, so you can fit around a napping baby or whilst they are entertained on a playmat. Some of the videos you can even do whilst wearing baby, so you still feel like you are doing something for yourself on the most draining of days.
+ I’ve never done yoga or Pilates before, does that matter?
Not at all. All of the routines are open level and offer variations to meet you where you are at.
+ How is this programme different from others?
This course is designed by three mums, experts in their fields who through their own journeys into motherhood saw how many mums struggle to find time for self-care, and the negative impact this had on their postpartum recovery.
This course is the only one of it’s kind that truly takes a holistic view on postpartum recovery. It’s not just focusing on pelvic floor and core - although yes we talk about this a lot - but gives you the information to create your own self-care toolkit that you will not only speed up your recovery time, but will support your health and wellbeing for years to come.
