HYPNATAL BIRTHING

Helping you prepare for a positive and empowering birth

What Hypnatal Birthing says

Hypnobirthing is an evidence-based form of antenatal education that combines learning about birth physiology, your choices/options and practical tools to lead to a positive, empowered and enjoyable birth experience. I teach private 1:1 and group hypnobirthing courses and workshop to prepare expectant parents for this life-changing birth experience. There is so much that you can do to influence how your labour progresses, from how your birth environment is set up, to knowing the right questions to ask to make informed decisions for you, to deep relaxation and breathing techniques to get you into your own little birth bubble, to reduce fears and anxieties and ensure you go into labour feeling calm, confident, empower, and excited!

Nowadays in our culture there is so much fear around childbirth, from what we see on TV/films, read in the media and hear from well-meaning friends and family telling you their horror birth stories. The more fearful you go into labour, the more tense you and your body will be, and therefore the more intense the feeling of labour will be. In my courses we will work to remove that fear by retraining your mind and educating you on what is going on during birth. By the end of my course my hope is that you will feel excited about birth and not fearful!

Hypnobirthing is a way of preparing for any birth, no matter where or how you birth your baby. There is no ‘failing’ hypnobirthing; all the knowledge, tools and techniques you gain in my course will leave you feeling empowered, confident and excited for your baby’s birth day.

Even if your birth ends up taking a totally different route to what you had planned, you made an informed decision based on weighing up all the information you had in your toolbox.

About

I’m Fiona, a fully qualified Hypnobirthing Instructor, here to help you prepare for the most exciting life event. I live in Hartley Wintney, Hampshire with my husband Sam and our two children Henry and Maisie - who both very much keep me on my toes!

Most days you will find me with a child or two in tow, I love devouring all sorts of podcasts/books/audiobooks, ranging from all things pregnancy and birthy, right through to humour, business, mindset and self-development! As mum life can be so all consuming, I find it so important to find time for me, whether that is a quick walk around the nearby fields, meeting a friend for a cuppa and catch-up, or going off to do some solo retail therapy.
Nowadays, I love that some of my evenings and weekends are spent meeting lovely expectant parents like you, to help prepare for a positive and empowering birth.
Hypnobirthing has changed my whole outlook on birth and, in fact, being a woman in general. So much of hypnobirthing is about science and learning about your body. For someone who likes a structure, a bit of order and to have a plan, I found this knowledge invaluable going into both of my labours. Instead of being scared and afraid of contractions and the ‘pain’ that everyone described, I was so much more relaxed knowing what the purpose of each contraction/surge was. Knowing the science behind it all removed the fear, making the sensations feel so different; I knew it was just my body working to bring my baby down to be born - that made it feel so exciting!
During my maternity leave with Maisie I decided to change my career path and do something that I absolutely love, and that gave me more time with my young, growing family. I trained to become a hypnobirthing teacher and I'm now so excited to be teaching people how birth can be, not just what you see in the movies (spoiler alert - this is NOT how birth should and can be!)
I introduced one of my closest friends to hypnobirthing and, after going off and doing some research for herself, she said to me “why doesn’t everyone know about hypnobirthing? I feel like I’m part of a secret club!” It is my mission to make this ‘secret club’ not so secret - it’s an everyone’s welcome, every birth kind of club and I am so happy you’re here!
