in person Antenatal and hypnobirthing Courses

At The Midwives Circle and Wellness Centre, we know how important it is to feel calm, informed, and supported as you prepare for birth. Our midwife-led antenatal and hypnobirthing classes are designed to reduce anxiety, boost confidence, and give you and your birth partner the tools you need for a positive birth experience.

Held in our relaxing, midwife-led pregnancy and wellness centre, our classes bring together expert guidance, a welcoming environment, and the chance to connect with other parents-to-be.

What you'll learn on our antenatal course:

  • Labour & Birth Essentials – how labour works, when to call your midwife, what can help or stall progress, and the role of hormones

  • Your Choices & Rights – place of birth, birth planning, birth rights, risk, and informed decision-making

  • Stages of Labour – What to expect and how to navigate each phase.

  • Interventions & Birth Options – induction, vaginal examinations, assisted birth, and caesarean (planned and unplanned)

  • Support & Comfort – the birth partner’s role, comfort measures, pain relief options, and optimal positions for birth

  • After Birth – placenta options, delayed cord clamping, recovery, feeding choices, and the 4th trimester

plus all this on the hypnobirthing course:

  • The Science Behind Hypnobirthing – what it is, why it works, and understanding the science behind it

  • Your nervous system & hormones – how stress, fear, and tension affect labour and how to break the cycle
