Meet Louise Connor — midwife, pregnancy yoga instructor and Girls Gone Strong Certified Pre- & Postnatal Coach.

Birth Ready Collective brings together my experience as a midwife, my passion for pregnancy yoga and my work as a Girls Gone Strong Certified Pre- & Postnatal Coach.

I have eight years of midwifery experience, supporting women through a wide range of pregnancy and birth experiences. I also hold Girls Gone Strong certification as a Pre- & Postnatal Coach. I believe preparation can include more than physical movement: feeling informed, supported and connected can also matter as women approach birth.

Birth Ready Collective is now focusing on online pregnancy yoga and birth preparation, bringing this experience into a programme you can access wherever you are.

My aim is to help women feel confident to move, make space for themselves and feel supported through pregnancy and life after birth.

Midwifery experience

Me as a midwife — over eight years’ experience.

This photo shows me in my midwifery role. My experience supporting women through pregnancy and birth is a big part of what I bring to Birth Ready Collective. It informs how I teach pregnancy yoga and how I approach practical, thoughtful birth preparation.

I combine that clinical experience with my work as a pregnancy yoga instructor and Girls Gone Strong Certified Pre- & Postnatal Coach, bringing movement, preparation and support together.
