PRIVATE ANTENATAL HYPNOBIRTHING CLASSES

Private Mindful Natal® Course + PregnaHub®

If you’re looking for private at-home antenatal hypnobirthing classes, or perhaps your local antenatal group courses don’t fit in with your schedule, then a 1:1 course is a brilliant option for you.

This in-person or online course is an antenatal education, and covers all that you need to know ahead of birth, with a carefully curated mix of hypnobirthing, mindfuless, practical tools, balanced information, and is supportive of ALL birth preferences and choices.

The PregnaHub® App is your pregnancy companion and new parenthood guide. The App contains on-demand content that you can use to prepare ahead of birth, and dip back into as and when you need in parenthood. App access is included when booking a private course (or available on a monthly/one-off basis here).

After our 6 hours together in-person, sat comfy on your sofa with a cuppa, you will understand the main 3 parts of birth preparation – your options, your body, and your mind. You’ll also be clearer on what you want your birth experience to look and feel like, and how to stack the odds in your favour. You’ll also understand what challenges you might face, how things can change, and how to navigate them with confidence and power-play tools in your locker.

Some people feel anxious or apprehensive about birth, and it’s my mission to myth-bust some of the scarier bits and help you feel more neutral about birth. If you’re already feeling more prepared and excited for birth, then you can use the course to delve even deeper into the bits that are important to you and strengthen your vision for birth.

As an experienced hypnobirthing teacher and birth doula I understand how unique your hopes and fears are around birth and parenthood. A private course provides you with the space and time, and my guidance should you want it, to talk and explore these further.

Our 6 hours  together can be taught over 1, 2, or 3 sessions. This is usually at your home if you’re in Central or South West London at dates and times to suit you (subject to my availablity). The course can also be taught online over Zoom if you’re further afield.

The Mindful Natal course is for you if:

🟣 You know where and how you want to give birth, but want to fill in the gaps, strengthen your mindset, or bring your partner onto the same page.

🟣 Or perhaps you’re starting from scratch, and want the key info alongside the extensive list of tools, options & choices that are coming – in a space you can ask all the questions.

🟣 You want to feel celebrated in your birthing decisions, whatever they are (there is zero judgement here).

🟣 You value an expert (me!) at the end of whatsapp to ask questions or for reminders along the journey

🟣 To learn about, or delve deeper into, Hypnobirthing and Mindfulness and use the techniques for birth and day-to-day.

🟣 Practical tools alongside the hypno stuff.

🟣 To have an antenatal education, ie what actually happens during labour and birth without (or with) the medical jargon.

🟣 You want resources that are clear and easy to find (all on the App)

🟣 You want to know how to care for your baby AND YOURSELF after birth.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • When’s a good time to do the course?
    It’s recommended to complete the course by 32 weeks, however you are welcome at any stage of your pregnancy, right up to your baby’s due time, it really is never too late! Obviously the earlier you register for a course the longer you have to enjoy the hub benefits. Hypnobirthing and mindfulness become more powerful with regular practice, so starting sooner rather than later can really help too.
  • Do you charge for travel/parking?
    I do not charge for travel beyond 30minutes car journey from SM4, or 45 public transport. I do charge for parking costs.
  • Do I need to prepare anyting ?
    No, just a comfy space with a drink, and a pen if you want to make notes.
  • I’m planning a natural birth but have been advised I may have to have a Caesarean Section, which course should I do?
    We recommend the all births course, as this will provide you with all that you need to prepare for a physiological birth but also includes what happens during an abdominal birth (caesarean section) so you will learn about both types of birth.
  • Could I do a private course with a pregnant friend?
    Yes, absolutely! Should you have a pregnant friend/relative who also wants to do the course I can come to one of your homes (or do the course online via Zoom) and run a private course at a discount.
  • What if I pay for a course and my baby arrives before the course has started/finished?
    If your baby is born prior to starting the course you will receive a part refund.
  • Can my partner or someone else attend with me?
    Most definitely, partners are encouraged to attend! The cost of the course is for a pregnant mum/person and one birth partner, whoever that may be for you.
  • Can I do a course on my own?
    Yes, we welcome all pregnant mums and birthing people.
  • Do you offer a short or condensed course?
    ​Yes, please contact me if you’re looking for a shorter or more bespoke course.
  • I’m not sure Hypnobirthing is for me but I would like to know more.
    Either get in contact for a chat or you can watch a taster session here –Hypnobirting Masterclass.
  • I want an epidural, can I still use the relaxation techniques?
    Most definitely. Hypnobirthing really is for all birth preferences and situations. Hypnobirthing is about understanding your body and learning how different choices, including pain relief, have pros and considerations so you can use or avoid them in the best way possible for you.
  • Do you provide Doula services?
    Yes! Please find out more here​
  • Do I need to do another Antenatal course as well?
    No you don’t need to if you didn’t want to, the course provides everything you need to know about preparing for birth. However, some parents either choose to enhance a standard antenatal course with a hypnobirthing course and find the cross-overs areas a really great recap, and some parents find hypnobirthing later on in their pregnancy and so end up doing two courses.
  • ​I was hoping to do a Hypnobirthing course but I can’t afford the classes.
    I can offer payments plan if needed.
  • Can we meet you before committing to the course?
    ​This may be possible yes, and would depend on how close you are to SM4, or happy to meet over Zoom.
