Here what our customers say...
Chryselle & Finley
Before joining Tam’s 'Beyond Birth' course VIP program, I was overwhelmed by the conflicting information from online sources and well-meaning friends and family. It was hard to know what to believe and what to do. Tam's course clarified everything in an unbiased, evidence-based way, explaining all the options and helping me choose what was best for my baby and family.
I was also uncertain about which topics to educate myself on before the baby arrived and what challenges to expect postpartum. Most advice I received was vague and unhelpful, often tailored to others' specific situations. The course provided clear areas to focus on, and even if I didn't need everything immediately, I knew exactly where to find the information later, which helped me feel confident and more at ease. It was like having a trustworthy Google search in my downloads, which was incredibly reassuring.
Before accessing the course, I felt unsure, anxious, and overwhelmed by all the conflicting advice and 'helpful hacks' on social media. Now, I feel so much more confident. The course and workbook covered everything I needed to know postpartum, and the personalised advice given in the support sessions with Tam helped me figure out what was best for me. Having those sessions gave me an extra level of support where I could ask questions without relying on Google was invaluable. It has helped me make informed decisions based on current evidence, making me a more confident mum.
The course has allowed us to focus on bonding as a family and enjoying the little things instead of worrying and feeling uncertain. It helped us plan ahead and avoid conflict in decision-making, leading to more realistic expectations and a more enjoyable experience together.
For anyone on the fence about working with Tam, having her and her course by my side was incredibly reassuring. The postpartum phase is full of uncertainty, and it's too easy to turn to Dr Google and worry more. Those middle-of-the-night questions are all answered in Tam's workbook, saving you from bothering your midwife at 2am or waiting for a doctors appointment. It's truly like having the most helpful friend in your pocket, and it’s more than worth it.
