Returns Policy

Weekend Course refunds

She Births® is committed to supporting families through education as well as our unique technology platform and private community. By engaging with any of our antenatal programs, you will be given information and exclusive access that will help you create a beautiful birth, no matter what unfolds.

A non-refundable deposit of $397 is paid per couple when booking any Weekend Course. Spaces are strictly limited in all of these programs. The deposit, along with your completed registration form, will give you access to the She Births® Online Resources so you can begin to engage with our unique curriculum and practices.

Upon purchasing any course with us, you will be accepting Terms and Conditions stating that a deposit is non-refundable and any balance of payment is only ever refunded at the discretion of The Birthing Institute. According to the ACCC and NSW Fair Trading, She Births® does not have to return any balance of payment unless fair reason and a medical certificate is supplied at least 48 hours before the course. We have the right to refuse a refund request and if a refund is accepted, a cancellation fee will be charged.

No show without any form of communication will not be refunded. The ACCC clearly states that you can not cancel your course if you fail to explain your needs to the provider within a reasonable time period.

If a booking is cancelled within four weeks of a course date, the remaining balance will only be returned at the discretion of The Birthing Institute when the place has been filled by another couple. She Births® will make every effort to fill that space and refund the balance of payment only. A deposit will be retained to cover administration and/or marketing costs to find a replacement.

We are aware that difficult circumstances can occur, but please note we do NOT offer refunds for a ‘change of mind’. Depending upon the circumstances surrounding the need to cancel or reschedule, it is expected that individuals take responsibility to appropriately communicate to She Births® and make alternate arrangements such as booking a private course or changing to an online course either for a vaginal or c-section birth. The Birthing Institute reserves the right to make alternative arrangements for you should the need arise and can transfer your access to an online program.

Online Courses

Our Online Courses are available to all participants for 12 months from the date of purchase.

Requests for refunds are only considered if the request is received within 30 days of purchase, and a legitimate reason is given in terms of your satisfaction with the curriculum. We do not offer a ‘Change of mind’ refund.

She Births® reserves the right to refuse refunds for our technology products and will charge a cancellation fee if the request for a refund is approved.

Products refunds

We are happy to exchange for another item, subject to availability should your item be proven to be faulty and if the request is received within 30 days of purchase and the product has not been damaged by use. Exchanges can take up to 10 business days to process. We do not offer a ‘change of mind’ refund. Should we need to refund an item, a cancellation fee will be charged, and customers are liable for the cost of returning the product via post. We will accept up to one exchange per order.

In addition to any excuse provided by applicable law, we shall be excused from liability for non-delivery or delay in delivery of any products and services available through our site arising from any event beyond our reasonable control, whether or not foreseeable by either party, including but not limited to, labour disturbance, war, fire, accident, adverse weather, inability to secure transportation, governmental act or regulation, and other causes or events beyond our reasonable control, whether or not similar to those which are enumerated above.

What if I am having a c-section.

Contrary to what some people believe; you DO have options and need empowering knowledge when having a c-section. Your choices can have a considerable effect on your state of mind as you birth, your comfort, the atmosphere of the room and your baby’s introduction to the world. You prepare well for important events in your life and are used to making empowered choices… a belly birth should be no different!

All of the following tools and techniques videos apply to your birth, and the whole following education curriculum, including principles and hormones, will help you with a positive mindset. Within our Belly Birth Online Course you can discover even more.

All four breathing techniques (some mums even push during a c-section birth)
Acupressure for breastfeeding
Massage techniques prior to birth to pregnancy comfort
Nutrition for better health, recovery and understanding your baby’s microbiome
Three visualisations (Some mums write their positive birth visualisation based on visualisation #4. Listen to ‘scripting your birth’ podcast with Peta Kelly and utilise the music track inside your app/Spotify playlist provided.)
Breastfeeding and baby-led attachment can allow you to still encourage a ‘crawl’ to the breast and make feeding easier.
