Feel Calm, Confident & Prepared — From Pregnancy Through Early Parenthood.

Personal, partner-inclusive care led by experienced NHS midwives

Why Families Choose Baby On Board UK

A calm, personal, midwife-led approach to pregnancy and early parenthood — designed to help you feel confident, supported and truly prepared. Not just informed.

Led by experienced midwives

Real NHS midwives sharing practical, evidence-based guidance — not facilitators or scripted sessions.

Small, supportive groups

No lecture rooms or big classes. Just relaxed, friendly spaces where you can ask anything and feel heard.

Time for your questions

Every family is different. We make space for your concerns, your choices and your birth plans.

Practical, real-life preparation

Hands-on tools, coping strategies and honest conversations — not information overload.

Ongoing reassurance

We’re here beyond the session too. Support doesn’t stop when the class ends.

Calm, confidence-building approach

You’ll leave feeling clearer, calmer and more in control — not overwhelmed.

We finally felt confident after our course — it was completely different to larger group classes.

You’re pregnant.

You might feel excited, overwhelmed, unsure, or all three at once.

You’re being looked after by the NHS, but appointments are short. Questions build up. Decisions feel rushed. And sometimes, you leave feeling more uncertain than reassured.

That’s where Baby On Board UK comes in.

Founded by experienced midwives Amy Gibson and Carly Gudgeon, Baby On Board exists to bridge the gap between NHS maternity care and the support families actually need: time, explanation, continuity, and calm.

We don’t replace NHS care.

We support you alongside it, helping you feel informed, confident, and grounded as you move from pregnancy into early parenthood.

This isn’t just about classes.

It’s about guidance through change.

A Pregnancy-to-Parenthood Journey

Baby On Board is built around one core belief:

When parents feel informed, supported, and listened to, everything feels more manageable.

That’s why our work follows a clear pathway, meeting you where you are, and supporting you as your needs evolve.

Start with Clarity

Early pregnancy can feel disorienting. There’s information everywhere, yet it's often lacking context.

We help you find your footing.

Through clear, evidence-based guidance and accessible resources, we support families who are:

Early in pregnancy

Beginning to think about birth

Unsure where to start

Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting advice

This stage is about orientation, reassurance, and understanding, helping you feel less lost and more steady.

Prepare with Confidence

As pregnancy progresses, questions become more specific, and preparation matters.

This is where our antenatal education and specialist workshops come in.

- The First Class Journey™

Some families want more than preparation alone.

They want continuity.

They want someone who knows them.

They want space to talk things through properly.

This is where the Baby On Board First Class Journey™ sits.

Personalised Midwife Support, Beyond Individual Sessions

The First Class Journey™ is a high-touch, continuity-led pathway designed for families who want ongoing, personalised midwife support alongside structured education.

This is not a bolt-on.

It’s not a generic upgrade.

And it’s not for everyone.

It’s for families who:

  • value an ongoing relationship with a trusted midwife

  • want consistent support across pregnancy, birth planning and early parenthood

  • need help interpreting options and making informed decisions

  • want emotional reassurance alongside clinical expertise

Within this journey, families receive:

  • comprehensive antenatal education

  • personalised planning and decision-making support

  • feeding and sleep guidance

  • continuity with midwives who know your story, preferences and concerns

The defining feature is the relationship.

Instead of repeating your story at every appointment, you’re supported by a consistent midwife team who understands you and walks alongside you as things evolve.

We introduce this gently on the homepage because it’s not an upsell.

It’s simply an option for families who want deeper, ongoing support.

Sleep questions don’t start after birth; they start during pregnancy.

Our newborn sleep education helps you understand:

What normal newborn sleep actually looks like

How sleep develops in the early weeks and months

Safe sleep guidance

Gentle settling strategies

How to build positive habits without rigid routines

This is not sleep training.

It’s realistic, biology-led guidance that supports both baby and parents.

Workshops are available in Kent and online.
