Who we are
Horio is Greek for village—a place rooted in tradition, shaped by heritage, and built on connection. It’s where stories are shared, support is instinctive, and wisdom passes quietly from one generation to the next.
The hardest part of becoming a parent today? Realising the village we expected just isn’t there in the way it used to be.
In generations past, parenting was a shared experience—guided by family, grounded in culture, and supported by people who knew us well. They were there at the door with helping hands, gentle wisdom, and quiet encouragement. But for many modern-day parents, it feels like we are learning as we go, often in isolation.
When I became a parent, I was surprised by all the things I didn’t know—how to rest, how to feed, how to let go. I realised too late that every part of parenting—sleep, calm, connection—was something my baby needed to see modelled… and something I needed help learning too.
At Horio, we create space for that village to re-form—one rooted in your values.
Our support isn’t about doing things the “right” way—it’s about helping you uncover what feels right for your family and put that into motion. From guiding those first precious weeks to building rhythms that grow alongside your baby, we offer practical wisdom and gentle reassurance to help you feel steady and confident.
We’re here to help you begin this journey with peace, clarity, and connection. To help you trust your instincts, honour your beliefs, and feel calm when the world around you feels noisy.
-
This course focuses on preparing you for parenthood beyond just birth. We will talk about sleep, feeding, managing expectations and how to adapt into parenthood. This is very different to an antenatal class preparing you for birth.
-
We welcome anyone at any stage of pregnancy or new parenthood. Ideally we would like to help you prepare during your pregnancy, but if you feel you would like to know more about meeting your baby’s foundational needs after birth - you and your baby will benefit from joining us.
-
ABSOLUTELY! You are both parents and this is your family. Anyone invested in making decisions in your family should hear this.
-
We run sessions during the day and evening to meet your baby’s and your schedule. We also run the sessions as a half day workshop if that is your preferred style of learning.
We also have online sessions and in-person sessions to suit everyone’s needs
-
Anyone who is becoming a parent or has already had a baby and would like to know more about how to set up good habits for your family.
Anyone looking for a village!
