About me
About Debra
I am a mum of 4 who is lucky enough to be doing my dream job! I am passionate about what I do - I love to teach antenatal, baby massage and family first aid classes. It is a pleasure to be involved with so many families at the start of their exciting journeys and then to see them grow up – I’m still in touch with families from my first course 20 years ago!
​
My vision is simple to share this precious experience and expertise with you so that you can really feel informed and empowered as you start out on your family life.
​
babymatters is a culmination of over 20 years of training and highly specialised ante and post natal experience. I trained and worked for the NCT before I started babymatters so I could concentrate to provide the best possible local antenatal and postnatal support.
