Passages Birth Pools
Looking for an affordable water birth option in the Brantford/Brant/Norfolk County and surrounding areas? I've got you covered!
Why choose a Passages Birth Pool? They are...
-
Affordable: each pool is about a third of the cost you would pay for a rental
-
Durable: each pool is made with ultra-durable eco-vinyl
-
Comfortable: wide, inflated sides can support the weight of an adult, and the inflated floor is soft to kneel on. Far more comfortable and deep than a porcelain tub.
-
Single-use: there is no need to worry about purchasing a separate liner for protection against bacteria, as these pools are used by a single family, and not intended to be used again by anyone else
-
Clear bottom rings allow for midwives and caregivers to illuminate the water unobtrusively, for easier viewing. (and AMAZING photos!)
-
Perfectly sized for use in small spaces: approx. 60 inches x 24 inches
CAD $125.00
*Free delivery/pickup if you're in the Brantford/Brant area or a current birth client
*Please contact if interested in shipping/delivery
*Birth clients are eligible for a discounted rate
