Our Course
What will the course look like?
We believe birth can be positive, calm and empowering- and hypnobirthing gives you the mindset, tools and understanding to get there.
It’s so much more than breathing techniques and relaxing music. It’s not being ‘hypnotised’- it’s about feeling informed, confident and in control, throughout the whole of your pregnancy and birth.
Learn how to work with your body and follow your instincts
Release fear, build confidence and feel empowered
Create a calm birth environment
Your birth partner will learn how to support you every step of the way
Avoid unnecessary stress and intervention.
Gain facts and learn how to navigate the maternity system so that you are making informed choices for you and your baby and are not on the ‘conveyor belt’ of care
Our support does not disappear at the end of the course, we are here for you throughout your pregnancy and postnatally.
Let us guide you through your pregnancy to help you achieve the positive birth experience you and your baby deserve .

What will we learn from the course?
Mind- learn how your thoughts affect your body during labour. We support you to release fear and build confidence using proven techniques like visualisations, breathing, positive affirmations and deep relaxation. Calmness supports the natural flow of labour.
Breathing exercises to support you during each stage of labour and to supply your working muscles and baby with oxygen.
Your birth partner/s play such a key role. They’ll learn how to support you confidently, advocate for your wishes, use calming techniques, and stay grounded- so you can stay focused and in control. They won’t be standing at the side… they will be actively helping to create a beautiful birth experience. A lot of women who hypnobirthed have said that their ‘most powerful tool during birth was their partner’s voice.’
Knowledge and information about pregnancy and birth that you are unlikely to be told anywhere else.
Understand what’s actually happening during birth. When you know how your body works with your hormones and muscles, you can work with it, not against it- helping labour to progress smoothly and taking away tension and pain.
Information about the different types of pain relief.
We help you to understand and navigate the maternity system so that you can gather all the information (including benefits, risks, implications and alternatives), at each stage, so that you can make informed decisions for you and your baby.
A simple practice regime to support you at home during pregnancy to prepare for birth.
Comforting massages.
What happens after the birth of your baby.
Pros and cons of different birth places.
Methods of intervention – including induction.
Knowledge about all types of births so that you can make informed decisions.
Your surroundings have a big impact on your birth. We show you how to create a safe, supportive space whether you birth at home, in a hospital or in a midwife lead unit.
