The best childbirth educator in Cairns is Vanessa Johnston - a midwife, and part of our faculty for the Graduate Diploma. She is a wonderful woman, who knows the Cairns scene intimately - please email me privately if you need her contact details - I am not in my office today and cannot access them easily while on the road.
Cheers
Andrea

Got a woman in one of our support groups who has a pregnant sister who is petrified of needles. She has even had hypnosis treatment to alleviate her phobia but it didn't work. Anyway, she has birthed one baby fine but was in a great deal of pain and wants to avoid the pain and is now saying she wants a caesarean. Her sister has tried to explain that a caesarean is far from pain free but she doesn't seem to get it.
Anyway, in a desparate attempt to help her sister avoid a CS, this woman wants to know about other pain-free options in birthing (other than drugs). Her sister is in Cairns. Are there any Active Birth Yoga classes there or hypnobirthing professionals, birth support services up there that anyone knows of?
Cheers,
Cas.
