All about Aquaborn Eco birth pools

It is at the heart of the Aquaborn ethos, that when it comes to pregnancy, labour and birth, all mothers need to do what is right for them. To do this, mothers need to be given all of the options and information to help them make the birth plan that is best for them.

Aquaborn was created to provide a much needed solution for women who wanted to birth their 'own way'. Often women are herded into following a path through maternity care and hospitalisation of the pregnant mother and their choices about when and how they give birth can be limited. It is often the more informed mothers who opt for alternative routes. It is a fact that an ever growing number of women feel that other alternative birthing choices such as home birth and water birth, better suit their innate requirements of having natural and gentle births.

This is certainly true for the founder of Aquaborn Catherine Taylor. A physiotherapist by profession, she has always felt our bodies know what to do when it comes to child birth, and being active, healthy and being in tune with our bodies is part of this wonderful process.

This is such a unique and amazing experience and it is essential that women are offered the tools to have the birth they want. Aquaborn wants to provide alternatives for women by providing cost effective solutions for water birth, empowering women to make their own choices, reducing fear factors surrounding birth and promote the active birth processes which can help progress labour quickly and with more ease.

We hope you have a wonderful birth experience.
