About The Motherhood Practice

The Motherhood Practice is an independent publication launched in 2026 by Sarah Seror and Clarissa Battaglino, co-founders of The Motherhood Practice, a private midwifery service based in London.

This publication exists because good information about pregnancy, birth, and the postnatal period is still surprisingly hard to find. Not the generic kind, the kind that actually meets women where they are.

Every article here is written with the same ethos that guides our clinical work: clinical honesty, peer-level respect, and no interest in telling you what you want to hear if it isn't true.

You will find clear explanations of what the evidence actually says, frank conversations about where the maternity system falls short, and practical, grounded support for the moments nobody prepares you for, as well as testimonials about our service.

What subscribers get

Full access to everything published, and everything still to come. New articles delivered directly to your inbox, so the algorithm doesn't decide what you read. And a growing community of women who are navigating the same questions, at the same stage, without the noise.

If you have a question you'd like us to address, or a topic you haven't been able to find honest information about, write to us. We read everything.
