MiA ViA - Reinventing the choices for home birth. 
 

When Do I Need to Book the Hire Pool?
Our hire pools are currently in high demand, therefore we recommend the following: -
  • Book your pool hire as early as possible to ensure that you have the birth that you want.
  • Booking a pool hire after your 36th week, may mean that the exact pool model you wish for may not be available at that time. We DO guarantee that we will have a pool for you to have at your birth so, if your first choice is not available, look at our other hire pools, we have plenty to suit.

  • Use our hire pool deposit if you are under 32 weeks - this will book the pool that you want, when you want it!

  • The hire pool deposit will be deducted from the final cost of your pool - it is NOT an additional fee.

  • If your situation changes or you simply change your mind prior to shipping, you will receive a full refund as per T&C's.


Features - why hire from Birth Supplies?

  1. We are ISO 9001/2015 compliant and. as such, we are the only birth pool available and recommended for hire through the NHS Supply Chain.

  2. We are the only company currently working directly alongside multiple NHS Trusts supplying their home birth hire pools and kits and more continue to enquire.

  3. Our Tranquility & Serenity pools are silver and provide a soft, warm and strong feminine zone for birth.

  4. Large comfortable seat.

  5. The Serenity sits in the similar footprint to the mini pool but gives you the space of the larger pools on the market.

  6. 7 week hire period that can be easily extended, just call us! (7 weeks will apply to all orders placed after 19:00 on 10/5/24)

  7. We deliver to your door around 36 weeks with DPD Next Day service.

  8. Returns carriage with UPS is included (single attempt) & we enclose a returns label for your convenience.

  9. Easy to follow return instructions - collect from your house or drop off at the UPS drop point.

  10. The birthing pool hire kit is supplied in a tough crate (keep for the return journey) & includes:

  • MiA ViA Serenity birthing pool.

  • Serenity Birth pool liner.

  • DPEK 10m/32 feet Food grade hose made in the UK (15m/49 feet option available).

  • DPEK Submersible water pump - this must only be used when totally submersed in water. Using it not submersed in water will irreparably damage the pump. (blue casing)

  • DPEK Electric inflate pump. (black casing)

  • MiA ViA Non-slip waterproof floor sheet.

  • 3 different tap connectors (to cover as many eventualities as possible).

  • DPEK Floating water birth thermometer.

  • DPEK Debris net / strainer.

  • RCD adaptor.

  • Full instructions.
     

Do I need anything else for my Home Waterbirth?
No, we are the ONLY birth pool hire company that includes everything in the hire kit - you are not expected to buy additional essential items. With our hire package you will receive 3 tap connectors, a floor sheet and a thermometer at no additional charge. All of this for a hire price of only £135.

If you would like to conduct a "wet run" with the pool or intend to use the pool before the birth for any reason, we recommend that you buy an additional hose and liner for hygiene reasons (multiple "wet runs" will require additional liners and hoses).

See Hire-Terms-and-Conditions

Obviously, we have many more wonderful items that are available that you can choose to buy and, if you wish to save on postage, we can ship them altogether with your birth pool hire.

Where do you hire to?
Currently available in the UK mainland & the Isle of Wight only. If you live in N. Ireland, Highlands and Islands or other offshore islands, please call us as options may be available and we want to provide a service that covers everyone within the United Kingdom equally.

Pool Description
The MiA ViA birth pool fast became our best selling pool outselling all others by 4 to 1 and it is easy to see why. The new technologies mean no compromise. The Tranquility Pro is the latest model on the market.

Short on Space? - no problem, MiA ViA Serenity sits in a similar footprint to a Mini Pool in a Box.

Room for two? - no problem, MiA ViA Serenity uses new technology to allow more space inside the pool - room for two!

All this coupled with being the only birth pool with a purpose built kidney shaped seat. This seat's registered design is larger and more comfortable than the step in other pools. It has a double layer to ensure stability.


Why a silver pool when the others are all blue?
We decided to create a pool that would be different from all the rest & after some extensive research amongst midwives, doulas and mums, one of the common themes of feedback was that they wanted a warm, calming and feminine zone for their water birth. The blue colour was generally viewed as cold, masculine and clinical and when asked for an alternative colour option, silver was overwhelming chosen as this was described as a soft, warm, strong, feminine colour that not only looks good in photos but very much provides the "zone" that is needed for birth.

The perceived wisdom for many years as been that "pools should be blue right?", as this is the colour that generally became accepted during the early 2000's. However, we have found that a particular benefit of the silver fabric is that blood and other excretions can be seen more easily when using UV light. Therefore, this has meant that checking the cleanliness of pools has made great strides because we can utilise UV lighting more effectively.


Further Information and Assistance
Please read our FAQs & Terms & Conditions of hire - Hire-Terms-and-Conditions

We are also happy to help over the phone if you have any other queries.

Returns
We use UPS for our returns - your pool will be sent out with a returns label and full instructions on how to return your pool to us. You can either take the crate to a UPS drop-off point or book a collection through the UPS website. Please return your hire kit within 48 hours of use for hygiene reasons.

Brilliant service
I just wanted to say thank you for the brilliant service we have received from you I didn’t realise that I would go into labour within 16 hours of ordering the pool, but your speedy dispatch meant that the pool actually arrived just before I really wanted to use it. The birth wouldn’t have been the same without it Thank you very much

Wonderful company to rent from
Wonderful company to rent from - I got a birthing pool that had absolutely everything I needed. Instructions were nice and clear and returns was easy to follow as well. I ended up needing an extra week and they were very accommodating and understanding. Would definitely recommend!

Birth pool and equipment itself was top quality.
The birth pool and equipment itself was top quality. I also ordered the comfort pack which had the knee cushion and stool. That didn’t prove to be too helpful especially because you cannot use it in the pool. The reason I’m leaving a 2 star review is because it was an absolute nightmare returning it. Instructions on collection are limited only to America. The page for UK seems to be broken. That left us with a return option that required us to drop it off to the closest pick up point. Since you’re required to return it within 2 days of delivery we were under a lot of pressure and at a time like that there are not enough resources or physical ability to drop it off at a store. Frankly I’m quite disappointed with the whole process. Reply: Thankyou for your review and we are sorry that your had a poor return experience. We have spoken to UPS with regard to this and hopefully this issue has been resolved. Should anyone else have this issue, please call us on 01526 344266 and we will help resolve any problems as we can book the collection remotely for you.

Serenity pool and TENS hire
Cannot recommend enough. Everything arrived when expected, and the pool was easy to set up/use/pack down again. I also hired a TENS machine which was a huge help during labour. The returns process was easy. Fantastic company!

Amazing company
Amazing company, I went post dates to 43.1 before having my home birth they were happy to extend the hire free of charge and very quick to reply. They always used such positive language in the emails that it made me feel good about my decision of going past my due date. They were so helpful after to help us return the package. We didn’t need anything else for home birth other than some towels… I would recommend to anyone who is thinking of a home birth 😊

midwives were impressed
We opted for a home birth and couldn't have been happier with the pool. Everything was made easy, we were unsure we would be able to have a home birth so waited until the last minute to hire the pool, fortunately it was available. It was delivered the very next day and was simple to set up and to pack away. The midwives were impressed and wanted to know where the pool was from so they could recommend the service to other mums.

Thank you!
I only went for a home birth because of covid restrictions. I liked the idea of it but I also loved the pool birth with my first baby. I assumed having a pool birth at home would be too much of a chore. It definitely wasn’t - it was so, so easy. From making the booking online, the delivery, the information provided, the return - the whole process! It was the best and easiest experience I could have imagined . Thank you!

immensely grateful for the service received
My partner and I have been immensely grateful for the service received from the birth partnership and for the astounding quality of the mia via pool and equipment given to us for the hire period. The duration of the hire was perfect allowing plenty of time to get familiar with the set up of the pool and to help keep a relaxed mind in the run up to the labour. My partner birthed a beautiful baby boy and managed to on only two paracetamol, the heat and calm the pool provided had a massive relief of pain. I can’t thank the birth partnership enough for offering such a great deal on their hire services, it made it affordable for us to pursue a home water birth as we had hoped.

Excellent service!
The birth pool was really wonderful and came with everything you need and more. Great communication and really fast and easy to arrange collection after the birth. So glad we decided to hire it was so convenient.

Highly recommended
We hired Mia Via and the service was excellent. I went overdue and they easily extended my hire. My baby was born in the pool and when we had to organise the return the service was again exceptional and very friendly. Highly recommended

Mia Via pool
I was very pleased with the customer service I received using the Birth Partnership. A special shout out to Bev on the hire desk. She was super helpful and I approached her having been turned away by other companies and laughed at for wanting a pool so last minute (39 weeks pregnant). I would definitely advise checking all equipment and doing a full dress rehearsal ahead of the big day because we did and found that the pump didn’t work. We contacted The Birth Partnership and they sent a new one straight away.

Excellent service
Excellent service, Birth pool was great quality and we had everything we needed in the box. The instructions for set up are clear to follow, along with the instructions for packing back up and sending back. We where debating where it was worth purchasing our own then selling it on or hiring and we are so glad we decided to hire. The last thing I want to do is to be trying to re sell a birth pool after having the little one just want to enjoy them and get sleep where I can.

Mia Via pool hire
Just wanted to say how impressed I was with the service we received. From accommodating me with a pool at short notice, efficient delivery and excellent value for money. Customer service was fabulous and the lady I spoke to on the phone couldn’t be more helpful. I have recommended your company to my midwife and nhs trust for home birth pool hire. Thank you again.

Mia Via pool hire recommended
My pool arrived promptly within the timeframe they had given me and the contents were well packed and clearly labelled in the contents booklet to make it easy to understand which bits were which. The instructions are broken down into separate booklets for set up/draining/returns etc which made it much easier to work out what to do without it getting confusing. During use the pool held its temperature much better than the brand I'd used previously.

Highly recommend Home Birth Supplies!
Ordering online was easy & quick. I ordered my birth pool kit fairly late into my pregnancy and it arrived within 2 days. The instructions within the kit were easy to follow & the kit contained everything we needed. I ordered some extra bits separately and they also arrived really quickly. The collection process to return the kit was very easy. Highly recommend Home Birth Supplies!

Excellent service!
Excellent service! And queries or questions I had was resolved with a quick phone call. They email you with all the information you’ll need and everything is on time, clean & ready to use and the returns service is really good and easy to use. Unfortunately didn’t end up using the pool as the home birthing unit was understaffed on the day I went into labour but overall I’d highly recommend you pitching your home birthing equipment from home birth supplies.

Used the Serenity pool for my healing HBAC
I used the amazing MiaVia Serenity pool for my healing HBAC. I experienced such a blissful birth and this was my first time using a birth pool too ever. I experienced such deep healing, joy and surrendered to the process of birth. I had my baby in the comfort of my own home and felt so very powerful. Using the pool was the best decision ever, it gave me great safety and comfort.My labour was beautiful starting from the hours of the morning till the early afternoon. I used the pool for most of my birth and only came out once. I felt very safe in the pool and comforted by the water. The water was warm and allowed me to relax throughout the waves of contractions. In addition to the pool I used natural tools such as the comb, TENS (out of the water), dimmed lights, music and the power of visualisation. As I hit transition being in the pool was the best. I used the entire pool and found even more comfort in moving around and allowing my womb to open up as my baby was finding its way into the birth canal. My partner ended up in the pool for support during transition and really held space for me. Shortly after my baby was grounding down through my birth canal. I also kept this pregnancy a surprise gender and found out at that very moment. The baby was a beautiful baby girl and my son also joined us in the pool. He found his way by himself and was in amazement of his new sibling. Myself and my family were in the pool taking in our newest joy. It was a powerful moment to acknowledge what I had done; I birthed my daughter at home in my living room. I proved to myself that my body was never broken. It was truly a divine and healing birth.
