Nicola has been so welcoming and provided all the science behind any and every recommendation. She had time for everyone on the course and didn't judge anyones personal preferences. A great course, very well put together and I finished feeling well informed, ready and confident for my birth experience to come.

Nicola is so knowledgeable and up to date with current scientific research to provide you with the best information possible. She is also excellent at conveying the information so that it is easy to understand and made the classes feel very relaxed and welcoming!

Just completed the labour and birthing antenatal 4 week course and I feel extremely prepared for my upcoming birth. Nicola is very friendly, professional and has an amazing wealth of knowledge on all things Baby. The course is packed full of information that you will fully understand what to expect and that you are able to take control of your birth every step of the way. Very educational and empowering, excited for my next course Into to Breastfeeding.

I completed all four of Nicola's courses and I'm so glad I did. My birth didn't go to plan at all, but I felt prepared enough that I was able to make informed decisions throughout the whole process. Nicola makes you feel empowered to make your own choices and I like that she backed up all her course content with scientific knowledge. Initially fearful, my breastfeeding journey has gone smoothly so far and I'm sure that is down to the knowledge, tools and reassurance that I gained from the course. Thank you Nicola!

I came to Nicola with fears about giving birth. She provided a calm, judgement-free space to share exactly how I felt. For me, she struck the perfect balance between being adaptable and open, and being reassuring and steady. The information and hypnobirthing tracks she offered helped to prepare me for the c-section I hadn't planned on having. It might sound strange but I actually enjoyed the c-section in the end! Without Nicola's help it would have been a very different experience, and I'm forever grateful to her for her part in that. Any time I tell my birth story, I recommend Nicola!

Nicola is amazing and so knowledgable and reassuring with practical and no nonsense advice. We took her antenatal courses before the birth of our first baby which helped us feel confident going into the unknown! I felt so positive about labour and birth and thanks to Nicola’s guidance, when things didn’t go to plan, I knew I was prepared for the unexpected and could be open minded. She really went above and beyond when I reached out after the birth with helpful advice on breastfeeding and where to seek more help and guidance. We would recommend all of Nicola’s courses to anyone preparing for childbirth, breastfeeding and wanting to prepare for the arrival of their new baby.

Nicola helped me build the confidence to view labour in a positive light. I would recommend this course to any expectant mother! Thank you so much, Nicola!

My husband and I recently attended a few of Nicola's antenatal courses online (labour and birth, breastfeeding, baby care) and I'm so glad we did! We're expecting our first baby and now I feel so much more prepared and that I understand different options and can make informed decisions. Nicola is so knowledgeable and explains everything with evidence extremely clearly and impartially. She also allowed space for questions and discussion and I would absolutely turn to her for help and advice in the future. Thank you Nicola!

I joined Nicola’s antenatal class after a recommendation from a friend. Nicola was warm, welcoming, helpful and made me feel like no question was too simple or stupid. Her teaching style is down to Earth, with lots of time for discussion, and interactive exercises as well. Since then my husband and I have also joined the baby care and breastfeeding classes with no regrets. We feel 100% more prepared as first-time parents and absolutely recommend these classes to others.

I decided to join Nicola's session at MAMBA UK as, despite this being my 3rd baby, I just felt I needed some more confidence and knowledge having been a while since my last baby. It was brilliant. Loads of very valuable information, some a refresh but also lots of new stuff. Always delivered in a friendly, relaxing environment. And all despite being an online course. I was actually really surprised how well it worked and how well we have all supported one another. I now feel more empowered and better able to face the rest of my pregnancy and birth. Thank you so much.

Nicola was so helpful and supportive when I had concerns with my baby daughter's complete lack of routine. She is experienced and knowledgeable, without being judgmental and provides such practical, evidence based advice. I implemented the changes she suggested over the course of a week, and the difference in my daughter's sleep, and in my stress levels, has been remarkable. I wouldn't hesitate to contact Nicola again should I need more guidance in the future!

I found Nicola to be a really helpful guide before our little one arrived. The schedule was flexible and doing it in bitesize chunks once a week rather than over a weekend made it easier to focus on the material. Going in I knew absolutely nothing and she was very patient and knowledgeable and always took the time to acknowledge me and the role I would play as partner both during birth and afterwards. It really put me at ease for the whole experience which was to come. Thank you!

Nicola put together a bespoke course which included hypnobirthing and active birthing. She tailored it to support myself and my husband. My birth went completely differently to my plan but with Nicolas excellent course and support I still ended up with a very positive birth experience despite what could been considered quite traumatic. Additionally the support she has provided postnatally has been invaluable. Highly recommended

I approached Nicola toward the end of my second pregnancy as I was suffering from anxiety relating to my experience with my firstborn around post natal depression and not bonding in the early weeks. Nicola suggested using Rewind hypnotherapy, this really helped me to put the experience behind me and to feel much more positive and in control going into hospital. She’s incredibly experienced and knowledgeable, as well as kind and supportive and I felt very at ease opening up to her about my fears. Thank you Nicola!

I can’t rate Nicola highly enough. As a first time mum, in a pandemic where Antenatal classes/care were almost non existent, Nicola helped me enormously to navigate the first few weeks with a newborn. I was extremely anxious for a number of reasons, and Nicola helped me to get things into perspective - she was an incredibly reassuring presence. Even though sessions had to be done on Zoom rather than in person, I always found Nicola to be wonderfully engaged, friendly and nothing was ever too much trouble. She has also taken an interest in how things have gone since our sessions finished, and I know that she is only at the end of a telephone if I ever need her in the future. Thank you so much for all your help Nicola!

I can’t recommend Nicola at Mamba enough! I’m a first time mum, in a pandemic with little to no support. I was struggling with sleep deprivation - badly! I’d brought sleep programmes, read books, watched videos, googled and googled - and got mixed advice which baffled me and stressed me out, trying to follow this strict, ridged routine. ...until I was recommended Mamba! Nicola was so incredibly helpful, kind, relatable and put my mind at ease straight away. Implementing the advice, I saw improvements after only a few days! Nicola video called me every few days and replied on text super fast (even at evenings - sorry Nicola!) No question was too small or silly. I also received some breastfeeding and calming from anxiety support from Nicola, she knows it all! Thank you so much Nicola, you’ve given me the biggest joy of getting some sleep and being able to enjoy being a mum again. I can’t recommend you enough!

I cannot thank Nicola enough for her help over the last couple of weeks. As a new mum I had developed insomnia. It was starting to take over every day life and ineffective confidence and enjoyment of being with my son. Nicola has given me the tools to address the anxieties I had been feeling. She is always there to help and replies quickly too. I cannot recommend her enough.

Nicola is wonderful!

My husband and I had recently a 5 hour workshop with Nicola. I am going to be induced into labour as I developed hepatic cholestasis during the pregnancy. I was extremely worried about the whole process. Our meeting with Nicola left me feel very positive and prepared for the birth process given the circumstances. Nicola also answered to all our questions, reassured us and made very good recommendations. Ioana&Chris

Empowering, Educational and Supportive 💕 I am so grateful to Nicola... from her way with words to her boundless enthusiasm! As a first time mum, birth and beyond seemed rather scary; Nicola allayed all fears... no question too strange, no time too short, and every session was something I looked forward to... If you’re thinking about embarking on a MAMBA education journey, you won’t regret it - the education has been priceless, the support unlimited, and I feel ready for the next stage of Motherhood 💕
