Birth Savvy’s Pip Wynn Owen is passionate about promoting the importance of childbirth education and good quality antenatal classes in Perth. As such, she regularly appears in the local media and in online and national publications.
“It’s time traditional antenatal classes in Perth’s private hospitals lifted their game and helped couples make truly informed decisions about their childbirth experience. Too many women and their partners are left shell shocked after becoming victims of the cascade of interventions. I hear the phrase ‘If only I had know that before,’ too often to ignore. Women and their partners need to educate themselves so that they can have the confidence to know what is right for their bodies and babies.”
