“This pool is sturdy, solid and durable. I was very surprised at how well it was made. Since I first started my midwifery practice three years ago, I have always requested that families pick up the basic three ring kiddie pool and most times have found that when a mother is labouring it doesn’t stand up as needed from the weight of the birthing mother. Many times we are cleaning up water that is flowing over the sides as a mom leans over it. As well it seems to take a long time to fill up each ring individually.

I can confidently say that this pool will not do that. Its thick PVC material is very strong and supports women in birth unbelievably. What most moms seem to be raving about are the two handles, one on each side which help them move into place safely and provide the resistance sometimes needed when pushing.

There is no doubt that this pool was well thought out and constructed with care. The oval size and dimension are quite nice for the mom allowing her room to stretch out and move freely as desired as well as provide plenty of space for the midwives to receive the babies. I love the shape it is almost cocoon like allowing the woman to feel safe and secure.

MANY CONGRATULATIONS, you have made my day!!!
I cannot tell you how excited I am to find that at last someone has taken the initiative to develop a bespoke, simple portable pool for labour/birth. I will no longer have to drive my husband up the wall every summer while I examine the latest children's paddling pools to see if I can find something suitable! The idea of the oval shape and the upright chambers is brilliant. Well done.

Everyday in my professional life I meet women who are looking for this kind of product for their home births.

All the very best with this venture, you deserve every success.

“I am so impressed with the pool, which we had inflated in our lounge this weekend. It is so much better than the 'others'. I think it will sell very easily.

Thanks very much. Very quick service”

I highly recommend that if you are looking to purchase a pool for birth, you will find the made in water pool to be strongly constructed and economical.
