About

About Ceri

Ceri Elms - Hypnobirthing and holistic birth preparation guide

I’m Ceri, lucky mum to 2 wild children, Jack & Poppy, who are my muses & the reasons I set up Sunflower: to create the classes I wanted when I was pregnant & when I was a new mum in need of support & looking to connect to 'my people'.

 

 I am lucky to live in the stunning Brecon Beacons with my husband, kids, dog & cat. Being surrounded by the healing power & beauty of nature everyday supports my own wellbeing, & inspires me to weave nature or seasonal elements into my sessions & circles.  I love the mountains, the woods, the sea & the lakes, this is where I feel most alive & most at home.

 

I love celebrating the Wheel of the Year & finding ways to do this with our little ones is so important as we are nurturing a life-long love of nature & a desire to protect our planet when we share this wonder with our children. 

 

One of the best pieces of parenting advice I ever got, & often share, is 'Get outside or get in or near water' - I firmly believe this is true for mums as well as babies & children. Everything feels better on, in or near water & nature reminds us of beauty, to be still & to be grateful.

I’m an antenatal, hypnobirthing, pregnancy yoga & postnatal teacher offering accessible birth preparation with an holistic focus, alongside a continuity of care with nurturing baby classes, nature sessions & children's yoga.  

I want you to feel calm & confident, excited & clued-up, to feel respected & attuned with your mind & body, to know all of your options & to have realistic expectations about pregnancy, birth & beyond.

 

I’m here to help you achieve that through knowledge & sharing powerful yet simple techniques to help you to understand, listen to & trust your body, mind & instincts by tuning into your inner wisdom & guide. Let's work together to inform all of your choices in pregnancy, birth & matresence.  Join our welcoming village of support for all mums here in the beautiful Brecon Beacons. 

I am proud to also be one quarter of The Mamau Collective, a group of perinatal guides who have come together to offer you a maternal village of support through our combined expertise, skills & passion for holistic wellbeing for all mums. We deliver Mother's Circles, Pregnancy & Postnatal Retreats & pop-up events throughout the year. 

I welcome collaboration with other motherhood, birthing & baby, toddler & children's wellbeing practitioners & groups, & love partnering with other local businesses & organisations to support mums & parents in & around the Brecon Beacons & South Wales.  Recent collaborations include Flying Start Powys & Playworks Project Powys, & Sarah Haile Photo & Black Mountains Forest School.

Please do get in touch if you wish to find out any more about my classes or how I can help you prepare for birth or support you in your matresence (transition to & evolution of motherhood).
