Register for January 2027

So you're pregnant... and you want to have the most positive birth experience possible.

You stumbled upon hypnobirthing.

It sounds weird. It sounds hippy-ish. It sounds ineffective.

Birth feels a little bit scary right now.

You’re looking for something that’ll take that away. Maybe you’ve heard about someone who had a beautiful, calm and relaxed birth.

“Yes, that’s what I want”, you think.

Excellent. You’re in the right place.

Hypnobirthing is actually a terrible name for what we do as instructors. It barely scratches the surface of how we support parents. So… allow me to explain what we cover.

Questions…

What is hypnobirthing?

Simply, hypnobirthing is a series of relaxation techniques that help to reprogram your brain around birth.

In conjunction with lots of support and antenatal information, you learn how to navigate your body and the maternity system so you can have a more positive birth experience.

Can I use hypnobirthing as a first/second/third etc. time mum?

Anyone and any birth can utilise hypnobirthing.

Whether it’s your first baby, your first homebirth, your VBAC (vaginal birth after c-section)… it doesn’t matter. Hypnobirthing helps faciliate and improve ALL birth.

Is hypnobirthing just for mothers?

Absolutely not! Hypnobirthing works best with you’re learning alongside your birth partner. Your birth partner will need to advocate for you, help you practise your relaxations and remind you during labour.

If you are birthing solo, we have recordings of everything you will need.

4 Group Classes

Life changing support

We learn where our fears around birth come from, how our minds change before and during birth, and how powerful the mind-body connection is when it comes to sensation.

We discuss your unique goals from the course and learn a bit more about everyone.

Preparing

To ensure you’re able to make informed decisions and confident birth choices, we cover all aspects of navigating the maternity system and any jargon you may hear along the way. I explain easy ways to help you make decisions in any situation and we go over any and all “what if’s”.

Planning

We cover what actually happens during birth and what you can expect to feel in your body. For each of those stages, we work through dedicated and very effective techniques to support your body, your baby and your birth partner.

You’ll be given some wonderfully relaxing resources to take home.

Building

As a complete antenatal course, we also go over things that happen after baby is born and the choices you have around that, no matter the type of birth you choose, or where you give birth.

We go step-by-step through the birth pathway, from start to finish.

The pregnant mother or surrogate and any birth partners. I ask that each pregnant mother brings just one birth partner with her to the classes. Usually couples attend together.
That’s preferred! It’s best to attend with an open mind, ready to receive information and be available for different perspectives. Hypnobirthing is very different to your average birth - I can’t wait to share it with you.
I qualified as a hypnotherapist in 2023 (YesSupply) and used those techniques to help me through some significant health issues. When I got pregnant in 2024, I took 2 hypnobirthing courses to prepare for my wonderful homebirth. Since then, I have trained with the prestigious and rigorously assessed, KG Hypnobirthing (Diploma).
