Thank you for the most amazing antenatal classes- we not only feel empowered now, but each class was nurturing, informative and a safe space to ask any question; which is so important for first time parents! Please share and recommend “Bump and Bloom.” We are so grateful and appreciative 🧡❤️✨

I really liked the antenatal classes. They were explained in a simple, clear way and I felt comfortable being there, . Even the little things, like the refreshments, made the whole experience feel a lot more relaxed. The hands-on workshop was definitely the best part for me. Practising everything instead of just listening made such a big difference. It helped me feel more confident and a lot more prepared. Overall, the classes were well put together and I’m glad I went. I’d genuinely recommend them to anyone who wants something helpful and not overwhelming during pregnancy.

I attended the antenatal classes with Maryam and also purchased the full bundle — and I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I made during pregnancy. Even though I’m outside of Leicester, the online 1-to-1 sessions worked perfectly. Maryam is incredibly warm, knowledgeable and genuinely caring. She explains everything so clearly and creates such a relaxed, supportive environment where you feel comfortable asking anything. The sessions were packed with useful, evidence-based information, and the bundle has been so helpful to revisit whenever I need a refresher. Each session left me feeling more confident, less anxious and much more prepared for birth and early parenthood. I’m so grateful for Maryam’s support and guidance. I’d highly recommend her to any expectant parents — absolutely worth it!

"The information provided really helped me through labour as I wasn't given alot of information through my midwife during my appointments. It made the labour process alot easier and it was great to have the additional help and support postnatally too. I was signposted in the right direction to get my son diagnosed for his tongue tie which improved feeding.”

“It was my second pregnancy and I wanted to go for a VBAC which isn’t easy with so much self doubt and anxiety but Maryam was at my rescue. She guided me throughout my journey helping me overcome my anxiety and stress of having my baby the way I wanted it to be. Also she helped me in healing after with the stitches and other stuff.”

"Maryam visited me at home shortly after I gave birth to my daughter. I really appreciated her kindness, reassurance, and practical advice on breastfeeding as I was struggling so much on latching and feeding due to a C-section. She made me feel at ease during a time that can feel and was so overwhelming as a new mum. We also spoke on a few occasions afterwards at social gatherings about my birth experience, and she was always warm, approachable, and genuinely interested in how I was doing. Her professionalism combined with her caring nature really made a positive difference❤️🩹"

“I was very lucky to have had Maryam as the attending midwife to my planned caesarean section. Any questions I had, she always had the answers and with so much empathy and knowledge. No question was too silly and I felt totally at ease every step of the way. If I were to have more children I would purposely seek out her advice and expertise x”
