ABOUT US
Meet Dawn
Hello, I’m Dawn.
With 30 years of experience as a midwife, I’ve had the privilige of supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and those first days with a new baby. I understand the highs and lows this journey brings, which is why I created A New Dawn—to offer calm, practical, evidence-based antenatal classes in a relaxed, friendly setting. My classes are warm and down-to-earth, giving you space to learn, ask questions, and build confidence as you prepare for this exciting new chapter.
I’d love to welcome you and support you on the journey ahead.
Our Preparing for Birth and Beyond course is designed to help you feel confident and ready for what’s ahead.
Week one
Week two
Week three
Week four
Understanding labour, when to go to hospital, and what to expect
Pain relief options, coping strategies, and what really works
Infant feeding - breast, bottle, or both - exploring what suits you

Preparing for Birth and Beyond one day course
We've condensed our four-week course into a single day of evidence-based practical skills, and calm preparation.
This day is perfect for people who can't commit to a four week course because here at a new Dawn we understand life is busy!
- Labour & Birth, what to expect
- Coping strategies for labour
- Infant feeding
- The early days with a new baby
A Day of Discovery
“Dawn was an absolute gift during one of the most precious and vulnerable times in my life. She brought a calm, reassuring presence that instantly put me at ease. She is approachable, kind, and genuinely attentive — no question ever felt too small, and she always took the time to listen and explain things clearly. Her knowledge and confidence made me feel safe and supported. It meant so much to have someone so steady and encouraging by my side after giving birth.”
