• You’ve been told you may need to be induced and feel anxious about what that means for your birth experience.
• You want to understand the medical reasons for induction and how it might affect your labour and delivery.
• You’re feeling uncertain and want to be fully prepared for all potential birth outcomes, including a possible induction.
We can feel prepared for, calm and confident about the conversation around inductions - making it about your choices.
Do you want to understand the reasons behind why induction might be recommended for your birth? And feel confident accepting or declining?
Nobody can predict what will happen. But, you CAN face decisions with knowledge, feeling in control and with strategies to make it easier.
Our course explains the reasons for induction and helps you weigh your options, so you can make informed decisions with confidence.
Do you want to explore techniques to help your body adjust and respond effectively to induction?
Knowledge is power. Understanding how your body works and the things you can do to make your own experience better is so important. Too often, we're taught that birth is a process that happens that we have no control over, especially with inductions - but there is SO much we can do to stack the cards in our favour to make birth and recovery easier.
Do you want to feel confident and prepared for the induction process and what to expect during labour?
We've been taught that anything could happen in labour, so why prepare for it? Just let the Drs do their jobs, they know what they are doing...
But to learn what
could happen, and how to navigate these things with tools and strategies is the best way to prepare. To feel confident the the process and your body.
An induction is an invitation for your body to go into labour...it might be reluctant to play along. But we can decline the invitation, or encourage our body.
You might have been advised to have an induction, or you may be thinking ahead to the inevitable conversations at the end of pregnancy, inviting you to an induction. However you birth, you can achieve an amazing, positive birth, on your terms. And when you have a positive birth, the early days of parenting are that much easier.
We'll take you through everything you need to know when preparing for having a baby by induction. How to keep any feelings of stress, anxiety or loss of control to a minimum! How to navigate the maternity system to get your desired outcome.
The way you birth impacts your early parenting journey. It can take a while to find your confidence, especially when also recovering from an induction, and maybe the believe that your body "couldn't go into labour". Taking control of your own journey is so important - because 9/10 your body isn't given enough time.
Start your journey off confidently, having taken control of the controllables when it comes to pregnancy, birth and recovery.
We should all feel confident, prepared and in control for any birth situation.
There are certain things in this life that we can "wing" and get away with it, but birth and parenting works best with planning for all situations. This Induction of Labour mini antenatal course will guide you through everything you need when thinking about induction. Helping you to plan for appointments and giving you a whole host of tools to use in your body.
This induction of labour mini antenatal course is available online, on-demand. Taking you through what to expect from appointments and assessments, navigating the maternity system, breathing and movement techniques for a more comfortable pregnancy and induction.

Birth Partners
Birth partners are so important we have a whole module just for them. To prepare them to support you fully for the whole pregnancy and labour, and after birth too. To help them understand their recovery and transition into parenthood and how an induction might impact this.

“I felt completely in control for the entire 26 hour labour – I just felt so calm, the breaths were incredible and the consultant commented on how she couldn’t believe I’d refused an epidural. I felt confident enough to question and on occasion challenge recommendations of the midwives so that the birth ended up being as natural as possible! A very positive experience to look back on. Thank you!!”

“We were so glad we chose this course. Comprehensive without being too overwhelming, and really set us up to feel prepared and react calmly to the inevitable hiccups of birth and the first days with a new baby.”

I know the power of good antenatal education, I've been a hypnobirthing, active birth and antenatal teacher since 2014. I have created this course to incorporate the best there is to offer.
I came into this business after a difficult birth experience with my first, and wanted to find a different way for any future babies I had. The information I'd received at my NCT Antenatal Classes didn't prepare me for the realities of giving birth in the NHS. And I've discovered during the past 10 years that other popular antenatal courses also don't prepare you for the realities - they focus more on the social aspect, which I spend a lot of time focusing on after baby has been born.
I discovered through my training, how amazing it is to combine hypnobirthing and body mechanics science. Safe to say, my second birth experience was a world away from my first – and one I still smile about now, 8 years on! And what I didn't anticipate is how much better my postnatal and parenting experience was, because I'd had a birth where I felt in control.
What I learned is that when you do proper research ahead of time and put together a properly informed birth plan, when you understand the birth process and how to work with your body, when you have a whole bunch of tricks up your sleeve for coping with labour sensations…you can turn any birth journey into a positive one.
Yes, the course is entirely online and on-demand, allowing you to complete it at your own pace, whenever it’s convenient. It is designed into small sections so its easy to dip in and out when time allows.
The course is designed to be flexible and can typically be completed within 3-4 hours, though you can spread it out over multiple sessions. There are some recommended movement and relaxation elements that are designed to be done daily if possible - but simple techniques that would take 5-10 minutes and are really helpful to ease discomfort and aid relaxation and sleep.
Everything is taught by Jilly, a experienced antenatal and postnatal teacher. My training has been centred around teaching clients about birth, and I'm not a midwife so I don't have to abide by NHS policies. This allows me to teach you in a completely balanced way, putting your needs ahead of the system.
There's a whole section for birth partners, giving them their own tips for induction, the different stages, things to look out for, getting them used to the breathing techniques and most importantly giving them practical tips to help you in pregnancy, during birth and in the postnatal days too!
You'll have immediate access to our digital on-demand course with access for 12 months from purchase. You’ll have 12 months ongoing access to downloadable resources, including checklists, recovery tips, and guidance on caring for your newborn after an induction.
The course includes detailed information on induction preparation, why it might be offered, what alternatives there are, what to expect during the procedure, tips for labour with an induction, your choices, the difference between induced labour and natural labour, recovery tips, emotional support.
While the course is on-demand, there are opportunities for Q&A with CubCare experts through scheduled virtual consultations or group forums.
It’s recommended to take the course during your second or third trimester, but you can start anytime that feels right for you to feel prepared for what an induction might entail.
