Improving Maternal Health Outcomes

Chantal's aim with Mama’s at HOME is to empower YOU to be active throughout your pregnancy and post partum journey and invest in some YOU time and fun with or without BUB. It launched in 2020 after the birth of her first daughter and has helped countless women in the Northern Rivers and nationally (online).


She wants to make access to an exercise professional CONVENIENT, ACCESSIBLE and AFFORDABLE for all Mama's and Mama's to be. The platform boasts 40+ workouts for pregnancy which are safe for pelvic girdle pain. It boasts week by week exercises for each trimester. The post natal platform has over 40+ workouts for from 6 weeks post birth to advanced rehab as well as a rehab rehab post natal program to follow so you return to exercise and movement safely.

Since working within women's health and being on her Mama journey she has been astonished by how many women fail to return to exercise safely and movement and have issues down the track. 


The best way to explain it is with a Marathon analogy.


You normally train for a Marathon for 9-10 months before completing it right? Then why wouldn’t you train your body as it undertakes the biggest event it will ever undertake over 9 months for childbirth and the period of healing thereafter.


Pregnancy and the post partum period is the same as a Marathon but realistically it is much longer (Realistically the full journey is 2 years from conception to recovery post).


For 9 months your body goes through incredible changes and it is moved and stretched to grow another human. It is important to strengthen and exercise safely through it as the body adapts. Straight after giving birth your body needs the same amount of time to heal from all these changes physically and physiologically. This healing period after birth can be up to 6-12 months with a gradual and safe return to exercise to ensure you heal right and there are no complications down the track or for future babies. Look after yourself now for your future self!


The classes are designed to be low impact and focus on all the little muscles that are often forgotten and become weak if not targeted. All exercises are safe for core, pelvic floor, pelvic girdle and targeted.


She'd love to have you join. See you on the MAT

I can’t recommend Chantal’s pregnancy Pilates enough! She creates such a beautiful and welcoming space for mums to be. Classes are a perfect mix of challenging and relaxing and I always leave feeling amazing. Chantal is also great at modifying the classes to suit the needs of each mum to be. I can’t wait to continue classes once bub is here! Xx

Molly

Mums and Bubs

As a physiotherapist myself, working in women's health, I can attest to the fact she taught all exercises with precision, ensuring proper form and technique while also offering modifications for different levels of ability and stages postpartum. She assists juggling unsettled babies and offering other exercises if mums need to feed or hold their babies. Chantal is very welcoming and friendly. She is professional and has a very high level of expertise in Pilates. The class was dynamic and engaging, incorporating a variety of movements to target different muscle groups and improve flexibility, strength, and balance. I highly recommend this class to any postnatal mums looking to enhance their recovery from pregnancy and childbirth. I will be back next term!

Gabbi

Mums and Bubs

Chantal’s mums and bubs Pilates classes were wonderful! Such a nice introduction to getting back into exercise postpartum. Chantal is so accommodating to where you are at with your postpartum journey and always gives three different levels to each exercise or adjusted the exercise to suit yours and bubs needs at the time. Such a safe and friendly environment for mums and their bubs

Ella

Pregnancy Pilates

I couldn’t recommend Chantal’s Pregnancy Pilates class more! As a first time mum to-be and a beginner in Pilates I feel so lucky to have been able to be a part of the wonderful community Chantal has created. She is absolutely amazing at what she does and I can’t wait to return in block 3!

Sophie

Pregnancy and Post natal

As a first time mum I have had a fantastic experience with both Chantal’s online Mama’s at Home pregnancy Pilates classes as well as her face to face postpartum Pilates classes. Knowing there is a lack of guidance in the health sector around exercise guidelines for women going through pregnancy and postpartum I was thrilled to have found her service. Chantal’s specialised knowledge, educational handouts, warm personality, ability to multitask and adapt exercises and own experiences with pregnancy and postpartum make her the perfect person for guiding mama’s through this stage of life. It was also great to have both options of exercising from home around a busy schedule as well as face to face classes where you can meet other mums and bubs. Highly recommend!

Lisa

Mums and Bub s

These classes have been such a great way to return to exercise after having a baby. Chantal is so knowledgeable and puts a lot of effort into planning the classes as well as making sure the exercises are safe for your and your body. It's a great way to meet other mums and bubs. Looking forward to term 2!

Gemma

Post Natal Pilates

Chantal is an amazing pilates instructor. I am loving the gentle return to exercise after giving birth and all from the comfort of my own home. If I miss a class I can just catch up at a convenient time. I would highly reccommend to other Mama's.

Cat

Post Natal Pilates

I love Chantal's pilates sessions. Being able to engage in 30min of purposeful movement from the comfort of my own home has really helped me establish a consistent routine.

The sessions run at a pace that is accessible for all Mama's and Chantal provides modifications to suit wherever you are at in your postpartum recovery.

Chantal's instructions are clear and concise, enabling you to execute each exercise correctly, thus achieving results.

I also love the lil check-ins at the end of the live sessions ... it was nice to say hi and connect with all the other mama's doing the sessions with you.

I highly recommend it to all Mama's!

Keli

Pregnancy Pilates

I really enjoyed Chantal's classes and the recordings to do in my own time. Chantal is approachable and generous with her time and knowledge. She will go through the basics and ensures correct movement and breath, which is incredibly important. I have learnt more from Chantal than I have in any studio class. Thank you Chantal!

Ashleigh

Pregnancy and Post Natal Pilates

Chantal’s Mamas at Home Pilates sessions have helped me keep on track with my fitness routine after having a baby. Chantal’s pilates classes have helped me strengthen my core and significantly helped my diastasis recti. I am able to catch up on sessions to fit my busy lifestyle which is super helpful. Thanks Chantal, I would recommend Chantal to everyone at any level of fitness.

Summa

Post Natal Pilates

The mama’s Pilates was an amazing support to help me get back to exercise post second baby. Chantal gets through a great workout, tailored to my needs in just 30minutes and I can fit it around my mum job. Chantal is also very friendly and approachable when I had questions.
