Birth’s Leslie Knope
You made it!
I’m Frankie, and it’s so wonderful you’re here. I’m so excited for you, because if you’re here it means you’re ready to take the path less traveled, and take control of your birth prep. A bit about me:
I’m the Head Bitch In Charge of Devon Birth Co, and it’s my mission, my dream job, the thing that makes me sparkle, to spread the good word that birth is tough but so fucking beautiful.
I didn’t really align with any of the “popular” titles in the birth world, doula, antenatal educator, hypnobirthing teacher. They just didn’t quite fit. So do you know what I did?
I said fuck it. And made my own title. My own role. My own place in this crazy birth world. And so, a birth prep specialist, and on occasion a birth guide, was born.
So what’s it like to work with me, the best damn birth prep specialist in Devon?
Well, kinda like that. Supporting you to say fuck it when it feels right, and making your birth your own.
Until now you’ve been told birth is a terrifying hellscape that you’re lucky if you make it out alive. That it’s nature’s “mistake”. Maybe you’ve been made to feel like a silly, naive, little girl for daring to hope that your birth could be something different.
You’re a bit scared, you’re worried because you have a low pain threshold and you’ve heard it’s the most horrible, painful experience. You’re scared that the worst might happen if you don’t fall into line and do whatever the “experts” say.
Scramble those thoughts up and shoot them out like a snot rocket, because it’s time to recalibrate your mindset.
Working with me is feeling the fear and doing it anyway. It’s mastering your perception of pain. It’s naming the beast you’re scared to think about and banishing it to the shadow realm. It’s passion, joy, beauty, emotion, curiosity, tough love, nurturing, evidence backed, Raw and Real birth prep.
Birth is tough babe, but you’re tougher. Let’s effing GO.
Real Deal Birth Prep
“I’m so scared to give birth, it’s going to hurt and I have a low pain tolerance! Plus my aunty said when she had her baby that baby got stuck and she had to have an emergency c-section, what if that happens to me”
Sound familiar?
Once you get pregnant, the outside noise gets louder and louder, and it feels almost impossible to not be scared to give birth, let alone excited (and it is actually possible to be excited to give birth, I promise!).
Let me ask you this: how much do you actually know about birth? What’s going on in your body, the choices you have, your rights?
It’s okay if the answer right now is “not very much”, been there, done that, bought the t-shirt. When I first fell pregnant, I didn’t have the faintest clue how to have the birth I wanted. I figured it was enough just to turn up and hope for the best. Long story short, it wasn’t, and I’ve learned so much since then.
It’s not about mechanics, you can spend 10 minutes on Google and understand the mechanics of birth.
It’s all the other stuff. The mindset stuff. The trusting yourself stuff. The feeling fear (a normal human emotion, btw) and doing it anyway stuff.
Because here’s a home truth for you, your fear is holding you back. But not anymore.
I’ll give you the tools you need to transform the way you feel about birth, and show you how to use them.
No more 2am Googling, or doom scrolling and saving every “birth hacks” video you can.
After our birth prep sessions, you’ll be feeling excited and ready to take on anything birth throws at you. You’ll know exactly how to roll with the pain, and how to call the shots.
Just real and raw birth prep with no bullshit.
The nitty gritty:
