Happy Birth Secrets is all about sharing inspirational positive birth stories and info to help you prepare for a great birth.

Birth is…

  • Hard

  • Messy

  • Raw

    (And so much more!)

But it can be a positive experience!

Hi there, I’m Minnie.

First of all, a huge congrats on growing a tiny human (if you're at that stage already)!

I’m a mum of two amazing girls, qualified antenatal educator, writer and founder of Happy Birth Secrets (also on Instagram).

After having two great (but plan B) births where I genuinely felt amazing afterwards - like Super Woman - I’m passionate about helping pregnant women and people feel informed, empowered and confident for a great birth too, no matter where or how it unfolds.

I’m a bonafide birth nerd and have a Diploma in Antenatal & Early Postnatal Education and am a member of the Federation of Antenatal Educators (FEDANT), UK. With a background as a journalist and editor for a range of health, kids and other publications and a career in communications, I’m also a big believer in the power of stories as a way of passing on ‘secrets’ (need-to-know info that can help you have the best possible chance of a great birth). Happy Birth Secrets is my way of combining these two loves.

I’d love to hear from you - you can email me or see my Contact page for more info.
