Hello!

I’m Sam, I am an Antenatal Educator, Doula, Breastfeeding Peer Supporter, Hypnobirthing Instructor and founder of The Perinatal Academy.

After I birthed my daughter I became completely obsessed with birth and supporting parents through this major life transition. After my own training journey, I knew exactly what I wanted to create for other people like me who want to begin a new path and career supporting parents. That is modern, inclusive education with real depth, and most importantly, long-term support while you're actually in your community doing the work.

When you choose our training, we won’t tell you to just ‘manifest your birth business’. We give you launch strategies, SEO training, marketing workshops AI guidance, a step by step business course (on top of the core training) business mentorship and so much more!

I have the most AMAZING team here. We are so proud and passionate to train and mentor you, budding Antenatal Teachers, Doulas and Hypnobirthing Instructors with honesty, humanity, and a lot of support that continues long after your course ends. Every one of us is working with parents day in and day out, we live and breath our guidance and we love it!

This journey is life changing. Sounds big but I mean it! It is work that fulfils you and genuinely fits around your family life. It’s transformational! And we love love love to be a part of it with you.

There’s a whole community waiting for you here and we can’t wait for you to be a part of it!

What’s waiting for you inside our training…

Our courses are built from lived experience, as well as textbooks. Every educator is actively working with families right now, which means what you learn is relevant, current and rooted in real practice. We teach you how this work actually looks and feels, with ongoing support and mentoring from our amazing team who have stood in your shoes!
You are not left to figure things out on your own. Alongside your training you’ll receive guided mentoring, space to reflect, ask questions and grow in confidence. Support continues long after your course ends, through our community and collective spaces.
Your certification is accredited by FEDANT, an internationally recognised body, meaning your qualification is respected both within the UK and overseas.
This work is personal as well as professional. Many students begin the course thinking they are learning skills, and leave having experienced their own growth too.

We hold so much space for both, you will learn and unlearn as you move through the first year of your training and birthing your business into your community. We love being a part of it with you
We believe perinatal education and support must reflect the diverse realities of the families you will serve.
Throughout your training we explore cultural awareness, systemic bias, inclusive language and respectful care across different communities, identities and family structures.

This work invites you to reflect on your own lens too, this is so important, we are all always growing and developing in this work.
If you study with us you will join The Perinatal Collective.

This is our busy growing community, and we offer SO MUCH to support you personally and professionally ongoing.

Workshops, resources, socials, a place to ask questions, cheerleading and virtual hugs whenever you need them
We don’t just train you to do the work, we support you to step into it. From pricing and packages to visibility, boundaries and finding your first clients, we guide you through the early stages of building your practice within your own community.

You’ll leave not only qualified, but clearer on how to begin, grow and sustain your work in a way that feels realistic.
