Birth Preparation Classes for Mums, Dads and Birth Partners
Learn ow to overcome labour fears, replacing them with calm confidence and proven techniques so that you have such an Amazing Birth that you actually want to do it again!
These classes draw on the best of Hypnobirthing, Birthing From Within and my years of experience supporting mothers and fathers in labour.
Are You A First Time Mother?
Are you feeling like you want to skip your labour because of all the terrible things you’ve heard or seen about birth?
- Fear of the pain,
- Fear of not being in control,
- Fear of too much medical intervention,
- Fear of not enough?
So many unanswered ‘what if’s…” and unknowables that it can feel like you are going crazy.
Maybe You’ve Already Had A Baby?
- Your previous experience was traumatic and terrifying and you really, really don’t want to have to do it again?
- It was ok but you are intrigued about the possibility about it being even better?
- You heard from a friend that it was one of the most amazing experiences of her life and you can’t believe this as it definitely wasn’t for you – in fact you would rather forget it altogether?
There is some good news
The good news is that with just a little bit of the RIGHT education, knowledge and preparation your labour and birth does not have to be this terrible ordeal that you have to get through any way possible.
Imagine holding your baby in your arms with the glow of satisfaction and delight at the labour you have just experienced. You had all the help around you that you needed and your choices were respected and supported. You feel amazing because you know that you have found a place in you that feels so powerful and womanly that you feel as if you could take on the world.
I have helped hundreds of women have relaxed, beautiful births that were so enjoyable that they look forward to doing it again. It really is possible and I am here to help you too.
