OverviewMaya is an automated birthing simulator designed to teach the fundamentals of labor, birth and postpartum care. It combines the portability and simplicity of a task trainer with the scenario-based realism of a full simulator, enabling efficient obstetric training with minimal setup.
Automated Birth SimulationRun realistic, repeatable birthing scenarios at the touch of a button. Automated fetal descent and delivery reduce facilitator workload and ensure consistent experiences across learners.
App-Controlled Scenario ManagementConfigure and control scenarios via an intuitive tablet app. Adjust labour progression, fetal position and complications in seconds to create targeted learning objectives.
Vaginal Examination Training- Cervical dilation (4–10 cm)
- Fetal station
- Presentation (four presenting parts)
- Fetal position
The app allows educators to rapidly change findings to expose learners to a wide range of clinical presentations.
Normal & Emergency Obstetric ScenariosTrain recognition and management of:
- Normal vaginal birth
- Vaginal breech birth
- Shoulder dystocia
- Assisted vaginal birth (forceps and vacuum)
- Third stage complications
- Postpartum haemorrhage (PPH)
Quantitative Blood Loss MeasurementIntegrated with the Clean Bleed Mat, Maya supports realistic PPH scenarios with up to 2.5 L simulated blood loss to enable quantitative blood loss (QBL) training and assessment.
Designed for Independent LearningMaya's rapid setup, portability and automated features support self-directed practice and reduce facilitator dependence, increasing access to skills-based education.

Comparison (Maya vs Other birthing/obstetric simulators)Easy set up | Complex set up
Low maintenance | Higher maintenance
Designed for practitioner/patient interaction | Some full-body manikins limit practitioner/patient interaction
Tech-based customisation & automation | Often reliant on manual control
Full articulated legs for realistic delivery | Minimal or upper-thigh only legs
Placental delivery included | May require add-on or only offer full placental delivery
PPH supported with Clean Bleed® technology | PPH often unsupported or requires additional module
Focus on stages 1–3 of labour and PPH management | Focused on other obstetric emergency priorities
Detachable legs for portability | Full-body manikins suited to permanent placement
