CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR PREGNANCY!
​
Hypnobirthing. I've heard all sorts of different stories about what it is, from not using drugs during labour, to being hypnotised, and being asked if it "really works". Simply put, hypnobirthing is birth preparation, for your body, your mind, your partner and your baby.
​
During my pregnancy, I heard lots of different advice here and there and heard a lot of different stories and old wives tales. It occurred to me that although I'd seen lots of dramatic births on films and TV, I didn't know the real ins and outs of what was really going to happen. Then came the day that I realised I was scared, really scared. I thought about how difficult birth must be and suddenly lots of different scenarios and questions whizzed around my mind. I felt that there was no way I could do THAT.
​
I began to research birth but still felt scared about how I'd be able to cope and how my body would be able to magic a human being from the inside of me to the outside world! Finally, and thankfully, I came across KGH hypnobirthing, the most acclaimed and respected hypnobirthing course that there is.
​
It. Saved. Me.
​
I went from panicking about labour and wishing that I didn't have to do THAT part, to being genuinely excited about the birth, knowing that I could totally trust my body and my baby. I understood the physiology of birth and had a toolbox of strategies to use to help me. I knew the different scenarios that could happen and felt totally prepared for each of them! I knew what questions to ask the doctors and midwives and how to positively tell them what I wanted for my labour.
KGH hypnobirthing is a total and complete birth preparation course. It covers absolutely everything that you need to know about childbirth and prepares you, both physically and mentally, to have the best birth experience, one where you will be totally in control and empowered. It is a no nonsense course, full of valuable information, guidance and tools that will help you achieve a calm and positive birth.
​
Whether you are a first time mum or having your fifth child, there is so much to learn and the best bit is, you will be able to have a calm and positive birth experience, one that you are totally ready and prepared for. On a group course, you will also be able to meet other expecting mums and other couples. It's great for dads to meet other dads too!
​
Give yourself and your baby the very best start. Hypnobirth!
WHY HYPNOBIRTH?
Mothers that use hypnobirthing often have far shorter labours.
​​
Hypnobirthing births are often more comfortable and sometimes do not need any pain relief.
​​
Usually there is less unecessary medical intervention during a hypnobirthing birth, allowing you to have a less medicalised route, which is often deemed far safer for both you and baby.
​​
Mothers who hypnobirth have an in-depth and clear understanding of exactly what their body will do during labour and why. This enables mums to aid their bodies to do exactly what nature intended, and to do so with confidence!
​​
Your baby will be born into a calm, happy and relaxed environment.
​
Almost all mothers who hypnobirth say that their partner, or birth partner played a hugely significant role and knew exactly how to support them. Partners also say that hypnobirthing helped them understand the birth process and gave them a valuable role to play during the birth.
COURSES
GROUP COURSES
PRIVATE COURSES
SKYPE COURSES
The course is delivered in a fun and friendly environment with other like-minded parents to be. It's a fantastic place to make life long friends for future play dates and a great place to discuss questions and maximise on your learning. A strong web of a support network often comes out of these groups, something money cannot buy!
The private one to one course can be run either in your home or my home. They are a chance for you and your birthing partner to become fully ready for the birth, and beyond, in private. You'll be able to strengthen this special bond and really focus on each other within a private environment.
Is life too hectic at the moment to attend a course? Maybe transport is an issue or you're just not up for travelling at the moment. Or maybe you just absolutely love the comfort and safety of your sofa. Whatever the reason, if you prefer to virtually meet, that's absolutely fine. This is not an online course where you get handed some content and are left to muddle through on your own, you still meet with me each week, it's just that it will be from the comfort of your lounge, or wherever is most comfortable for you.
"Whenever and however you give birth, your experience will impact your mind, your body, and your spirit for the rest of your life."
