How are you feeling about birth?
Worried, anxious, unsure what to expect?
If this is how you feel about birth then my services can help you. My comprehensive programmes are designed to unpick the myths and fears that society and the media have created about birth. Antenatal education and Hypnobirthing empowers you with up-to-date, evidence-based knowledge about the birthing process, enabling you to make informed choices. Putting you firmly in control of your birth.
Imagine thinking about your birth and smiling with happiness.
Yes, that could be you!
Positive birth experiences are about more than just the outcome; they’re about how you feel throughout the journey. Every birthing person deserves to feel empowered, in control, and respected during their birth, regardless of the path it takes. It’s not about a one-size-fits-all approach but about recognising that your feelings and choices are at the heart of your birth story. A positive birth experience is one where you feel heard, supported, and confident, fostering a sense of empowerment that can have a lasting impact on your journey into parenthood.

Science based
Hypnobirthing techniques are grounded in science, drawing from principles of neuroscience and psychology. You will be taught how to enter states of calm and deep relaxation which positively influences the body’s response to stress and pain. Scientifically, this relaxed state can contribute to the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain relievers and reduce the production of stress hormones.
Mindset
Hypnobirthing emphasises the role of the subconscious mind in shaping your perception of childbirth. Understanding how your mind can physically impact your body, allows you to learn how to control your fight or flight response. This is key to changing your mindset and creating confidence in your birth choices.
Birth partner role
Birth Partners are so important. They know you better than anyone else. This skill is essential in supporting you through birth. My courses help your birth partner understand how they can support you during birth and after your baby is born.
Community Support
Support, reassurance and creating friendships through group courses are heavily encouraged throughout the sessions. Through this shared journey, lasting connections are made, creating a supportive network that extends well beyond pregnancy.
