Jo Everatt
Founder of Antenatal & Baby, British Midwife and Lactation Consultant (IBCLC)
Jo has been qualified as a midwife for 35 years with a wealth of experience embracing all aspects of maternity care spanning across 5 different countries. Core-team labour ward in a busy city hospital, working with refugees in areas of conflict, home-deliveries, and teaching and preparing realistically for what is to come, are but a few of Jo’s areas of expertise. She qualified as a lactation consultant in 2011 and alongside teaching has found this area of care to be her busiest. Her aim is to empower patients so that they feel confident and informed for the journey ahead. She teaches from a base of sound academic knowledge and clinical experience having delivered hundreds of babies. Good preparation is imperative and she offers this in the form of versatile online, onsite or hybrid prenatal courses and breastfeeding workshops. She offers private breastfeeding consults online thereby extending her loyal support and expertise in many other countries.
Eilise O’Grady
Midwife and hypnobirth teacher
Eilise is a dual-qualified nurse and midwife. Qualifying as nurse in Dublin in 2019 from Dublin City University, she had a desire to become a midwife and work with women and their babies. She then completed a Higher Diploma in Midwifery from Trinity College Dublin in 2022, and worked as a midwife on the labour and delivery ward in the Rotunda Hospital, Dublin.
Eilise is also a qualified KGH hypnobirthing teacher. She offers on-site group prenatal classes and 1:1 prenatal classes in the home, where the aim is to prepare you for labour and birth and for the initial postnatal period with your baby. As a hypnobirthing teacher, Eilise offers 1:1 hypnobirthing courses which are focused on letting go of any fear of labour and birth, and in turn building your confidence as you enter into the labour process and birth your baby.
Eilise is currently training for her IBCLC. She recently moved to Belgium from Dublin, Ireland and is now based in Ixelles
