Hypnobirthing classes with Happy Parents. Happy Baby.

 
 

Whether you’re planning a homebirth, hospital birth, drug-free or Caesarean birth, find out how our hypnobirthing and antenatal classes in London, Essex and online can help you.

 

Why hypnobirthing?

You’re approaching the most momentous day of your life and we want to help you feel as calm, positive and prepared as possible.

Think of an athlete preparing for a race. Perhaps they’re in the best physical shape of their life, but negative thoughts, lack of preparation and support, can all affect their experience on the big day. This can also happen when we have a baby and that’s where our hypnobirthing classes come in.

Put simply, our hypnobirthing and antenatal classes will give you all the tools you need to have a positive birth. From mental preparation, to techniques that will help you give birth more comfortably and efficiently. We’ll also help you navigate any choices you need to make with confidence.

Our course is uniquely developed by a midwife, hypnobirthing expert and obstetric doctor and is based on science, psychology and years of experience. So you can be confident it will give you the most comprehensive and realistic preparation possible for the birth of your baby.

Does hypnobirthing actually work?

Yes! Studies have shown that hypnobirthing can reduce fear, increase comfort and help support your emotional wellbeing during pregnancy, birth and parenting.

Whether you’re planning a drug-free birth, or a Caesarean, we are confident we can help you.

But don’t just take our word for it, you can see how hypnobirthing has helped our course graduates here.
