Iwona Wojtyszko Nominated for the Stars Night Awards 2025

Iwona Wojtyszko – the voice of feminine strength, empathy, and conscious parenting | Birmingham, United Kingdom

In a world full of haste, pressure, and conflicting messages, Iwona Wojtyszko reminds women of what truly matters: trust in themselves, tenderness towards their bodies, and the power of knowledge and community.

Iwona is a midwife by education and calling, a Medical University of Gdańsk graduate, and has been professionally connected with Walsall Manor Hospital for years. Daily, she accompanies women during one of the most intimate and life-changing moments – the birth of a child. Yet her work goes far beyond medicine – it is a mission that combines education, emotional support, and the fight against myths that have surrounded pregnancy and childbirth for decades.

As the founder of the project (not)Antenatal School and the popular Instagram profile @polska.polozna.uk, Iwona educates, soothes fears, and empowers women. Her message is clear: every woman has the right to give birth without fear, in an atmosphere of respect and inner strength. This is why she has earned the trust of hundreds of families who, thanks to her dedication, have gained practical knowledge, a sense of security, and the strength to experience parenthood consciously and joyfully.

Iwona leads workshops, publishes educational content, and openly speaks about the emotions accompanying expectant parents. Her work has a tangible impact on the Polish community in the United Kingdom – building healthy attitudes toward pregnancy, childbirth, and family relationships. She shows that prenatal education can be close, human, and real – based on trust, not fear.

Privately, Iwona is a mother of two and a passionate advocate of living in harmony with oneself. Her personal story, marked by the loss of her family home and the rebuilding of her life from scratch, adds depth to her work and makes her even more authentic. She supports others and is a shining example of courage, determination, and unwavering passion.

Her work is a true inspiration for parents and everyone who believes in helping from the heart.
