Pregnancy support in Newquay

Pregnancy Classes, courses and experts for expecting parents to nourish, connect, learn and prepare for this new season of life

Pregnancy is a transformative experience filled with excitement, but it can also bring moments of uncertainty as your body and mind prepare for motherhood. I’ve curated a list of local options that can help you feel empowered, informed, and connected to a supportive community. Whether you’re craving gentle movement, educational workshops, or a space to bond with others on a similar journey, I hope you’ll find something that resonates with you.

I am not affiliated with any of the below (apart from my own offerings as a birth & postpartum doula and pregnancy yoga) — but hope this list will serve as a one-stop shop for your pregnancy service needs in North Cornwall.
