VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean)
Planning a VBAC and want to feel confident, informed, and supported? I offer personalised VBAC antenatal sessions designed to help you prepare for a positive and empowering birth experience. Together, we’ll explore your birth goals, talk through your previous birth experience, and build your knowledge with evidence-based information tailored just for you.
Whether you’re birthing at home or in hospital, this one-on-one session will guide you through what to expect, how to prepare, and how to feel confident in your choices. We’ll cover VBAC safety, creating your birth plan, comfort strategies, and how to work with your birth team.
Sessions are available in-home (Gold Coast, Tweed & surrounds) or via telehealth.
Medicare and private health rebates may apply.
