Lizzie began her birth career training as a midwife, where she noticed major gaps between antenatal education and parent outcomes. Knowing this is where she needed to focus, she turned to researching this gap.
Fast forward, 1000’s parents and births, and decades of research. Antenatal Training International and BirthWorld were born. Specifically designed to create a new generation of antenatal educators and deliver childbirth education and perinatal support that makes a real difference.
She is excited to finally compound all her knowledge and complete her Ph.D. in Perinatal Mental Health Education using BirthWorld as the research base.
Lizzie’s first book, “Calling to Career,” shot to Amazon bestseller status within 15 minutes of being listed, and she has plans for another 3 – her way of making as much of her work as accessible as possible!
