Hypnobirthing Classes

Hypnobirthing Classes for Expectant Parents

Hypnobirthing can be an absolute game changer when it comes to pregnancy, labour & giving birth. Whether you are planning a home birth or a caesarean birth, or you have no plans at all, this is for you! Imagine remaining calm throughout the whole journey, knowing your mind & body are rehearsed and prepared to do just that!

 

What's hypnobirthing?

Despite the deceptive title, there is no hypnosis involved when it comes to hypnobirthing. Women are often fearful about birth and this sends them into fight or flight mode. This sends oxygenated blood to their arms & legs - very unhelpful! There’s nothing to fight or run away from! Instead, by practising hypnobirthing, you can stimulate your calm mode which helps increase oxygenated blood to your internal organs, including your placenta which feeds your baby - very helpful! In our hypnobirthing classes we explain just how it works & we equip you with everything you need to practise & apply the techniques.

Online Hypnobirthing Courses

Benefits of online hypnobirthing classes

A lot of hypnobirthing classes are cringy and awkward - no one wants to practise breathing techniques in front of others! Our live webinar with cameras off & microphones muted means you can sit in your PJs & no one will know! No one is watching or listening so you can be doubly relaxed. 

We give you access to all the audios, scripts & tools you need to then practise in your own time. This makes hypnobirthing affordable, convenient & accessible when you want. 

 

Frequently Asked Questions

When should you start hypnobirthing classes?

As soon as you possibly can! Whether you are 6 weeks pregnant or 36 weeks pregnant, book today! The longer you have to practise, the better! This is useful for pregnancy and life in general so not just for labour or birth! The sooner you begin, the longer you have to practise which will make the breathing & visualisation techniques more effective when giving birth!

What are hypnobirthing classes?

Hypnobirthing classes aren’t hypnosis! They teach you breathing & visualisation techniques to help keep you calm. These are such important skills to have in your tool box & can change your entire pregnancy & birth experience. We’re not like most hypnobirthing teachers; we present the facts, not the fluff! We call a contraction a contraction (most hypnobirthing teachers refer to these as a wave or a surge). If you want a more airy fairy approach, look elsewhere! We’re straight talking midwives!

Can I learn hypnobirthing on my own?

You can practise the techniques on your own but it’s great to gain a proper understanding of how it all works before you begin. Some people read books to help but this isn’t the complete package. Our Hypnobirthing classes include all the audios, scripts & resources you need to be well rehearsed.
