4th Trimester Workshop FAQ's

What is the best gestation to attend the workshop?

I recommend coming in your second or third trimester but really whenever suits you is fine. We've had women come in their first trimester + women come postpartum too. What's more important is that you recognise the importance of preparing for the fourth trimester + place priority on finding time to learn

Is the workshop only for first time mums?

No, we have many women attend who have had a baby or babies before. Normally they've decided to come for a refresher or they found some of what we discuss difficult + want to be better prepared

Can my partner come?

From time to time we've been asked if partners can come, sure - you're welcome to bring your partner with you, please select this option when booking your spot. Be respectful + don't take advantage of this option, it is for partners only, not for a friend!

What is the difference between the online + in person workshop?

Our online workshop is ideal for those who don't live locally to Hamilton or don't want to attend an in-person session {but I am very friendly}. Some of the reasons people prefer an online workshop are;

Timing - the timing of our face-to-face sessions don't line up with your availability or you'd prefer to do it in your own time or there's difficulty finding the time that suits both you + your partner

Location - you may not live in Hamilton where our face-to-face workshop is heldBed rest - you may have been put on bedrest for the remainder of your pregnancy, therefore this is a great option

Comfort - we're not all comfortable in small groups so taking the workshop online from the comfort of your own home may be your preference

If you have any further question you can contact us HERE

What if I can no longer make it?

All payments are non-refundable except in the event of pregnancy related medical issues - in which case a full refund will be provided minus a $25 admin fee. Please notify us if you're unable to attend 48 hours prior to the workshop commencing

If the workshop doesn't fill or we're unable to proceed due to COVID restrictions you will be notified at least 48 hours prior to your session. You will be offered a spot at a future session or access to our online workshop or a full refund. Should you choose to take the workshop online you will be reimbursed the price difference

The 4th trimester workshop was great and so worth doing. Packed full of information about what to expect in the first few months after baby is born. My husband joined and got a lot out of it too, I think he came away in awe of what a woman's body can do but also an appreciation of what we have to go through postpartum. Thanks Renata!

My husband and I recently attended this workshop and found it very beneficial. After completing antenatal classes at another location, we found we still lacked information on the 4th trimester. We loved Renata's workshop as she provided us with alot of clear tips and advice for us to use once our baby arrives. We found Renata down to earth, friendly and very knowledgeable, which created a warm welcoming environment for us to feel comfortable asking questions. Would highly recommend this workshop to all 'about 2 be' new parents!! She also bakes delicious cookies too! Thanks Renata

My partner and I attended this workshop and absolutely loved it. The session was honest, practical and informative - really inclusive too, and open minded. We got a lot more out of two hours with Renata than eight hours of antenatal classes, so we feel really lucky to have found out about this workshop. Renata explains things really clearly - great structure to the workshop, and she has a very personable and inclusive presentation style that makes it really easy to digest and remember lots of important info. Great sense of humour too. She also provides an excellent workbook with all of the information from her slides so you can take notes and have everything you learned available when pēpi arrives. Awesome snacks too. Thanks so much Renata, we are so appreciative.

My partner and I are so pleased we attended Renata’s workshop. We actually found the workshop more beneficial than attending antenatal classes! This is because we found the content super informative, and Renata also provided some really practical “hands-on” advice which I’ve found that no one else really gives (other than my LMC). The workbook is really handy and professionally presented, and we also really appreciated Renata’s “down-to-Earth” and relaxed, yet informative style of presenting.

My husband and I really enjoyed the 4th trimester workshop. I surprisingly knew a lot of the information already, but it was really helpful to learn more and for my husband to learn about the challenges we would face. We loved Renata's honesty!

I'm so glad I went to the Fourth Trimester workshop. Renata is amazing and so natural at what she does! She covered so much about life with a newborn while keeping things fun and lighthearted. I'm a second time Mum and I wish I had done this before my first baby. Would definitely recommend!

Brittany B.

So glad I decided to do this workshop - it was packed full of information about the fourth trimester (that no-one really tells you about), and gave me some really valuable tips on what to look out for, and how to help myself get through a new and tricky time. Highly recommend - thanks Renata!

Stacey K.

Thoroughly enjoyed the night! Was very insightful and loved the format it was presented in. Would highly recommend to first and second time Mums. Worth the trip from Auckland!

Ange

Fantastic I was told by a good friend that she had done the workshop and loved it. So went along and feel the exact same. Renata is so genuine and real about the 4th trimester. And really put me at ease and feel like I can ask for help when I need it because the 4th trimester is a big deal. Do it for yourselves mamas you deserve it x

Holly

So valuable! I am so pleased that I attended the fourth trimester workshop. Renata packed so much information into the few hours, the majority of which hadn’t been included in my antenatal classes, that I now feel much more prepared for the next phase! The atmosphere was welcoming and supportive, and Renata was incredibly knowledgeable while happy to answer any additional questions. I would 100% recommend this workshop!

Samantha

4th Trimester Workshop Would recommend this workshop to all first time mumma to be’s. I really enjoyed this workshop and learnt a lot. The content covered went into detail on the things people don’t tell you when you’re pregnant. Renata was so engaging and easy to listen to!! Feeling much more prepared for the 4th trimester!

Helen

The Best Workshop Ever for Mums! I would recommend this workshop to new mums, or even 2nd, 3rd or 4th time mums. As a Mum to one, I had the awesome opportunity to attend the Fourth Trimester workshop with Renata and I absolutely loved it! I really wish I would have attended it for my son. The workshop was fantastic and very informative about everything from the birth, feeding, recovery and so much more. The environment that Renata creates is very supportive and it was great to hear the other expecting ladies’ stories and advice. I felt so prepared for having my 2nd child and even used and remembered the things we had covered in the workshop. And the goodie bag is fantastic!

Julia

The real stuff! The fourth trimester workshop is so worth it! As a first-time Mum-to-be - it was so refreshing to listen to Renata share a realistic take on what those first few months of the parenthood adventure can be like, rather than such a focus being solely on the labour/birth. The informal/intimate setting made engagement really easy and Renata’s genuine passion as well as her nursing/midwifery experience gave me a sense of real trust. I’ve taken away lots of tips and signs to look out for making me feel that much more ready to tackle Mum-life. Thanks so much for seeing the gap in the market for this - loved it!

Fourth trimester workshop I was lucky to win tickets to the fourth trimester workshop and wow it was amazing. I felt like Renata covers all the important topics and it feels like your just having a good yarn with a friend. She has a great energy and you can tell she is also speaking from heaps of experience. I already have 1 child and I would still definatly reccommend this to people if it’s your 3rd or 4th! Heaps of great information that I hadn’t heard before. I also enjoyed how Renata talked about some topics that aren’t usually covered in antinatal like bedsharing safely and post natal depression. Great night highly reccommend! Xx
