Hi! I’m Aimee!

100% recommend this course! Just finished our sessions with Aimee and feeling much more prepared for birth and looking after our baby! Aimee has so much knowledge on all aspects of the course and it’s very engaging. No judgement and a realistic outlook on everything. Met some amazing couples and got a nice network of mums to keep in touch with. Thank you Aimee!

Leighton Buzzard Antenatal Courses with Aimee

Antenatal courses for parents in & around Leighton Buzzard and surrounding Bedfordshire villages, plus hypnobirthing and 1:1 antenatal courses at your home

Hello! My name is Aimee and I have been an NHS midwife since 2014. I love all the different aspects of my job, each shift is different, exciting and I never stop learning! I am also a qualified Hypnobirthing teacher. I currently live in Tilsworth with my partner and two little boys!

I am extremely passionate about ensuring that women and birthing people know their options and feel supported, no matter what their choices are for birth and beyond.

I am thrilled to be working with Sophie and The Village Midwife team to bring a community to our area, where people can gather information, meet others at the same stage of life as them and enjoy the magic and excitement of bringing new life into the world together!

You can find out more about The Village Midwife antenatal course here!

For information about the course dates or to enquire about 1:1 antenatal course/support options, you can email Aimee at aimee@thevillagemidwife.co.uk

We attended Aimee’s antenatal classes in Leighton Buzzard and absolutely loved them. We were initially booked on for NCT and they were cancelled last minute but I’m so pleased they were because we got the opportunity to complete The Village Midwife course. Not only was Aimee extremely knowledgeable, she was empathetic and had no bias even with a midwife background!

She made us feel welcome upon entering the door and this continued for the whole duration of the course. I reached out to Aimee with a pregnancy concern that had been missed by a midwife and from her knowledge and experience she suggested to get checked out which resulted in a hospital admission so I’m very grateful for her amazing expertise!

The information was always informative and Aimee always made it personal to those who attended to make it relevant to our experiences. We learnt so much and a key for us was knowing our rights during labour and medical advice and this was all thanks to Aimee.

I would fully recommend this course in a heart beat - Aimee you’re amazing!

We had a great experience with Aimee for our antenatal classes. Very attentive, knowledgeable and provided me with confidence in my first pregnancy journey. Answered all questions and created a respectful and open environment for people to share and ask questions (even if it may have seemed like common sense). Would definitely recommend to all first time mums or those who want a refresher.

Lastly, the classes have created a little network with other mums and couples who partook so it’s great to have others to lean on and talk too (as well as Aimee) going through the same thing and to be able to meet up for lunch and coffee!

Fantastic course, fantastic teacher!
My husband and I completed a Village Midwife antenatal course with Aimee. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and when it finished we felt so informed and much more confident about our upcoming birth and being able to look after our child once they arrive. Aimee was just wonderful, we can’t thank her enough. She was always so warm, friendly and approachable, and imparted her vast knowledge without pushing any agendas. She always invited questions and went out of her way to provide the most useful answers. Aimee was so kind in giving us support outside of hours too, always providing comprehensive information in a positive way. The course was well-structured and the information provided was invaluable. We were sad when the course ended, but left with new friends made. All our thanks go to Aimee and The Village Midwife. We would recommend this course to everyone.
