Hypnobirthing classes
Hypnobirthing is an in-depth and evidence based birth preparation that benefits all parents, experiencing any kind of birth, in any kind of setting.
I firmly believe that the only ‘right way’ to give birth is feeling informed, heard, respected and empowered. My course equips you with the tools you need to be able to release fears, build confidence and give birth in the most positive way possible for you. In doing so, you are ensuring the best start to your new family life for you, your partner and your baby.

Antenatal Sessions
My hypnobirthing course offers a complete and comprehensive birth preparation education, taking you through everything you could wish to know and more about your birth experience and how to prepare.
As an addition, and specifically tailored for first time parents, I also offer an additional ‘Baby Care Basics’ session to be taken following your hypnobirthing classes, to help you feel confident in newborn care and totally ready to look after your baby.
Postnatal support
The support you receive once your baby arrives can really make a difference to how you start your lives as parents and to your relationship with your baby. These days many of us live away from family and friends, feel pressured to return to ‘normal’ as soon as our babies arrive, and can feel isolated and lonely when adapting to our new role as parents. But it doesn’t need to be this way.
After speaking with many new families I have put together a nurturing, non-judgmental and family-focused service to help ease the transition to your new lifestyle, to help you feel calm, cared for and confident in your relationship with yourself and your baby.
