Current Pathways
Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training
The Joymamma Prenatal Yoga Teacher Training course is a comprehensive, mentor-led pathway for yoga teachers who want to work confidently, safely and ethically with pregnant and postnatal women.
This training goes beyond techniques and sequences. It supports you to understand the why behind what you teach, including physiology, nervous system awareness, scope of practice and real-world decision-making - so you can guide women safely through pregnancy, birth preparation and early motherhood.
Delivered through a blend of self-paced study and live assessment and mentoring, the training is designed to be integrated gradually, with guidance and accountability throughout.
This training is for teachers who take the responsibility of perinatal work seriously and want support beyond certification.

Graduate Mentorship Pathway
The Joymamma Graduate Mentorship Pathway offers ongoing guidance and support for teachers as they move from certification into real-world teaching.
This pathway is designed for graduates who want space to ask questions, refine their teaching and develop confidence over time - with support that acknowledges the complexity and responsibility of working in the perinatal space.
Through monthly mentorship, observation and shared learning, teachers are supported to integrate what they have learned, navigate real teaching scenarios and continue developing their professional voice with confidence.
Rather than being left to “figure it out” alone, graduates are held within a structured, supportive container that honours learning as an ongoing process.

About Carrie Jeff
|
Joymamma is led by Carrie Jeff - Prenatal Yoga Educator, mentor and founder.
Carrie’s work today focuses on training and mentoring prenatal yoga teachers to work with confidence in the perinatal space. Her approach is grounded in many years of teaching pregnancy and postnatal yoga, birth education and attending births as a doula - and a deep respect for the physiological and emotional shifts of pregnancy, birth and early motherhood. While her role has evolved from teaching women directly to supporting teachers in their professional development, the heart of her work remains the same: integrity, responsibility and safety.

Built on lived experience and professional lineage
These foundations, including HypnoBirthing and hands-on teaching with pregnant and postnatal women, continue to shape how prenatal yoga teachers are trained, mentored and supported today and form the roots of Joymamma’s approach to education and mentorship.

"Prior to Joymamma’s training I felt very unsure about teaching yoga to pregnant women. Since completing the training, I feel completely confident and assured to teach pregnancy yoga safely and responsibly." - Joymamma Graduate
