What is Hypnobirthing?Put simply, Hypnobirthing is a fully comprehensive, evidence based antenatal course which empowers you to feel totally confident for birth. It teaches you powerful relaxation techniques to help you stay calm and cope with pain, gives you an in depth understanding of the science behind birth and can help you to navigate the maternity system so that you can have the most positive experience. All of our antenatal courses cover a wide range of essential birth and postnatal topics. Our unique approach combines powerful hypnobirthing tools, evidence based birth prep and mindfulness, giving you everything you need to prepare both your mind and body for birth. Put simply: feeling calmer & more relaxed for birth = an easier birth! You can discover more about the science behind hypnobirthing here.
-
Is this course only for those who want homebirths or no medical forms of pain relief?No. The Hypnobirthing we teach is for all births. From homebirths, to hospital births and c-section births, we're proud to be a fully inclusive company, celebrating and cheering you on. A high quality antenatal course should always explore all of your options for birth, helping you to make an informed decision about what is right for you and your baby.
-
Can my birthing partner attend the course with me?Yes! We actively encourage birthing partners to attend the course with you. We'll teach your birthing partner a whole host of practical tools and techniques to help you on the day, giving them an active role to play in your birth.
-
When is the best time to start a course?There is no right or wrong time when it comes to deciding when to start your antenatal course course. Most people choose to start a course with us between 16 and 34 weeks of pregnancy, as this gives them plenty of time to practice the tools and techniques, but other people choose start a course from 34+ weeks of pregnancy.

How is a this course different to NCT?Our approach to birth prep is very different to NCT. NCT courses tend to be very traditional in their approach to antenatal education and are usually ran in very large groups. NCT courses typically focus heavily on information giving and will cover a wide range of topics from pregnancy right the way through to caring for a newborn. Our courses go further than this. Our unique approach encompasses powerful hypnobirthing tools, evidence based birth education and mindfulness, helping you to prepare both your mind and body for birth. Without this understanding of the mind body connection and how it influences birth, standard birth prep courses are rarely enough. Developed alongside the concept of hygge, our antenatal courses are also a gorgeous experience. You can expect complimentary refreshments on arrival, a thoughtful pregnancy gift bag and an abundance of resources to support you. You'll also benefit from our dedicated ongoing support. That being said, it doesn't necessarily have to be an 'either or' situation. Many of our clients choose to do a course with us alongside a more traditional NCT course.

Do you offer payment plans?Yes we offer payment plans on all of our antenatal courses. We are also happy to provide personalised payment plans.
