Partner Power: Building Your Support Team
from The MAMA Podcast Hosted by MAMA Academy
In this episode of The MAMA Podcast, Heidi Eldridge, Founder and CEO of MAMA Academy, is joined by Sallyann Beresford, The Ultimate Birth Partner, to explore the important role birth partners can play throughout pregnancy, birth and beyond. Together, they discuss how partners can move from simply being present to feeling confident, informed and genuinely involved in the birth experience. Sallyann shares practical advice on preparing for birth as a team, communicating with maternity professionals, advocating for the person giving birth, and understanding the choices available throughout pregnancy and labour. This episode is part of The MAMA Podcast’s new Expectant Parents Series, created to help parents and their support networks feel more informed, prepared and confident throughout pregnancy and birth. The Expectant Parents Series is proudly sponsored by Fletchers Solicitors, supporting MAMA Academy in helping families access trusted information and feel empowered throughout their pregnancy journey.
