This course will provide you with techniques that you can use through pregnancy, birth and beyond, but it will also provide you with the information to understand your options so you can make informed decisions. I always say that it is hard to stay calm in labour when you don’t know what to expect, what your body is doing or the ways in which you can support your body to labour more effectively.
​
This course is not just the hypnobirthing techniques – it combines research, evidence based information and all of my little tricks that I have used as a midwife caring for women in labour.
You will also receive access to..
4 x Guided Meditation mp3s to reduce fear and build confidence for birth
Printable Birth Plan Template to edit and share with your midwife/OB
Active Birth Positions, Birth Partner Game Plan and Journalling Prompts Printable's
50 min Prenatal Yoga Video to prepare your body for birth
28 Page Ebook to use as your reference guide during labour
Access to Hannah's Positive Breastfeeding + Postpartum Course (valued at $97)
I know firsthand the impact that this course can have
In 2022 I welcomed my first baby and got to put the techniques into practice myself. I had an incredible birth which truly was the best day of my life. My labour was quick, free of medical intervention or drugs, and birthed my big 5kg baby completely naturally.
​
My partner was across all of the techniques and was an incredible support person (and yes - we worked through the online course together while I was pregnant so he was well prepared!)
Having these tools played a huge role in the arrival of our baby boy and achieving the birth that we had dreamed of. This made me even more excited to continue sharing this course with families as I now know firsthand the impact it can have.

This course is perfect for you if...
-
You want to have a natural, low-intervention birth but don't really know how you're going to achieve this.
-
You are worried about the pain and how you will manage.
-
You've been struggling with fear and anxiety about birth, and you don't know how to manage these feelings.
-
You want more from your Antenatal Classes than just the standard hospital program, which frankly is often more an an 'orientation to their policies and procedures' than actual preparation for managing labour and birth.
-
You want to learn hypnosis relaxation techniques for birth, but also want to have lots of other tools and techniques that you can use.
-
You want your birth partner to feel included, and for them to know how to best support you during your labour and birth.
