HYPNOBIRTHING / BIRTH PREPARATION COURSE
As a Midwife, I have observed first hand how amazing hypnobirthing really is, there are numerous scientific studies that recognise the benefits of hypnobirthing, resulting in positive birth experiences. I understand pregnancy and birth from every angle — not just as a teacher, but as someone who has supported hundreds of families through this life-changing journey.
Pregnancy and birth can feel overwhelming. You might be scared of the pain, unsure what to expect, or worried about how you’ll cope during labour. You’re not alone — and you don’t have to face it unprepared.
My hypnobirthing course is designed to help you feel:
Calm about what lies ahead
Confident in your body and your choices
Informed about how birth works and how to work with it
Connected to your birth partner so they know how to support you
This isn’t about having a ‘perfect birth’ — it’s about feeling in control, no matter what happens.
With my background in midwifery and postnatal care, I go beyond the basics to give you practical tools, emotional reassurance, and real-world insight that makes a difference on the day you give birth — and beyond.

Is Hypnobirthing only for first time mums?
Absolutley not! I have many people come who had a traumatic first birth and want to feel more prepared for their next birth, this can be a healing experience and often couples are amazed at discovering how interventions impacted their previous birth. I often hear them say "I didn't know I could decline that", or "no one offered me that as an option". Being informed is powerful so you can make safe decisions that are right for you.
I'm scared of pain and want an epidural, do I still need to do a hypnobirth course?
Yes, hypnobirthing with help you feel less fear surrounding birth, it will help you control hormones which impact labour and influence pain. You may also need to labour for a while before you are able to get an epidural so its good to be informed and know what other options are available and how to manage pain before an epidural can be sited.
The dates you have advertised don't suit me are there alternatives?
Please message me if that is the case, I also offer 1-1's at a date and time that suit you and will create a waiting list too when a class is fully booked.
What age can I start a baby massage?
Baby massage is suitable from birth but you may need to consider how comfortable you are feeling before booking a class. Are you able to sit comfortably on a yoga mat? Are you able to lift a car seat? Have you had a section, can you drive yet? I tend to leave the choice to you as you will know best.
What age is too old for baby massage?
There is no upper limit, we all love a massage but ideally you will want to start early, when a baby is crawling or pulling to stand they may not want to have a massage during the class as they are more interested in what is going on around them. However, I have had children up to 1 year in the class, some are very chilled and love to lie down for a pampering session.
Let’s take the fear out of birth and the guesswork out of newborn life — book now.
