"Who thought learning about childbirth could be so
much fun. The Glo Family weekend course was a breath of
fresh air and a rare chance to focus on our imminent
arrival away from the distractions and stresses of everday
working life"

Kerstine Rencourt - Managing Director
Kerstine is the creative drive and inspiration behind Glo Family. As a Director in a global accountancy firm, Kerstine worked in Europe and travelled extensively, developing sophisticated and eclectic tastes along the way, with an expectation of high standards of service and attention to detail. Her experience of childbirth convinced her that the care and levels of service should and could be so much better.
