The Birth Collective

*This is not goodbye*

Really it’s… ‘we will see you soon… let’s stay in touch ‘❤️

When we launched The Birth Collective in 2020, it was with the intention to improve access to trustworthy, relevant information for birthing women and families as they navigated the health system and became parents.

We hope we have fulfilled this goal and provided you all with something worthwhile, valuable and enjoyable. We are grateful to all our contributors for sharing their expertise. We’re extremely proud of the platform we have created, especially, when we were able to provide support during the pandemic.

Over the past few months however, we have become increasingly aware that with our young families, our jobs working in the NHS, and other commitments, we just don’t have the time to continue to support and to grow The Birth Collective, in the way it deserves. So with great sadness we’re announcing the birth collective is saying farewell as a business.

We understand that this may cause some concerns, especially if you have subscribed to a course from us recently. Don't worry, you will continue to have access to your courses for 12 months from the date of purchase and we hope that the courses provide you with what you need to prepare for your birth. You are also welcome to reach out to us if you need to over the coming months.

As individuals we remain good friends and we’ll all be still around as we each pursue our own paths:

Brooke is currently based at a busy London Hospital. You can follow her  where she provides a range of information on women's health, pregnancy and her journey training as an Obstetric & Gynaecology Doctor

Leah has created the most incredible Online Pregnancy Yoga Plan. She is coming to the end of her maternity leave and will be returning to the NHS in October. Be sure to follow her

Carrie offers a range of in-person and online birth prep, hypnobirthing, postnatal support & women's circles. She continues to work as an NHS midwife part time. You can reach her via

We want to thank you for being part of this community and coming on this journey with us!

With love & gratitude,

Leah, Brooke & Carrie # # #

Welcoming yet another new member to our team…

Here at The Birth Collective, we are creating a space for evidence-based information which on our social media pages is free and available at your fingertips. We want to support you all through the journey that is motherhood. Whether that be through our instagram or page or if you’re a subscriber to one of our many courses. We pride ourselves on having evidence-based material, created by professionals working within the NHS with years of experience in the area of birth and beyond. Our latest addition to the team is no exception…

Eloise will be joining us as our ‘Resident GP’. Her role will include creating relevant, evidence-based and really useful content for you all around postnatal health for mum and baby. She will also be doing some Q&As for us around women and newborn health. We are so so pleased to have her on board officially, although she has been guest posting for us for a few months now :)

Eloise works as a GP in London with a specialist interest in women’s health. She has also worked in Obstetrics and Gynaecology in Australia and is currently training to be a menopause specialist. She wrote the ‘Postnatal health and Wellbeing’ leaflet for the Family Planning Association and is in the process of writing a new leaflet about newborn health.

Eloise is a mum herself, with 2 girls aged 4 and 1 who have taught her masses and keep her busy. She has learnt a lot from her own experience of having babies and is keen to try and raise awareness of postnatal health and wellbeing.

Having a baby can be the most exciting and special experience but it can also be daunting. Eloise has set up an Instagram page to raise awareness about the postnatal period and provide relevant information and useful resources. She feels passionately that the postnatal period should not be forgotten and nobody should feel alone.

Do you have any questions for Eloise?
