private hypnobirthing courses in greater manchester and cheshire

learn in your own home at a time that suits you

Prepare for your birth with personalised support, but retain the feeling that every choice belongs to you.

If you want to feel more confident going into labour, if you want to know your options and how to cope with pain, this is the course for you. Private courses are an investment, but it’s money well spent. The birth of your baby will be one of the most memorable days of your life. If you’d like to feel like you’ve covered every aspect of preparation, plus have the most effective & evidence-based strategies to cope during labour and for your postnatal recovery, this is the course for you.

Private sessions offer the chance for a personalised experience. As these sessions will take place without other couples, extra time will be available for practising hypnobirthing techniques. I’ll help you to understand much more about the maternity system in Greater Manchester, what you can really expect to happen during labour and how to manage the unexpected twists and turns that can come your way.

With a 33%+ c-section rate in Greater Manchester, I feel it’s incredibly important to prepare you for this too. We’ll spend time talking about the caesarean process, how to use hypnobirthing strategies for calm, control and recovery, plus how your birth partner can best support.

Private sessions are highly tailored to your specific needs, so we’ll have a 30 minute phone consultation first so that no time is wasted in your sessions with getting to know you and your history:

• Perhaps you had a traumatic birth experience previously and need space and the right preparation to help you this time around?

• You could be first-time parents who simply want to be fully prepared for such a special event in the most comfortable way possible and with my full attention and support.

• You could possibly be preparing for a VBAC (vaginal birth after caesarean) or multiple birth and want to explore hypnobirthing techniques to suit your needs & concerns.

• You may be none of the above but would just prefer the extra time dedicated just to you, your birth partner and baby in the comfort of your own home!

Many of my clients enjoy the freedom of private sessions and often find it helpful if they are unable to find childcare or have a hectic work schedule.

Note: I frequently work with clients & birth partners with roles in sport, the media or the public eye. My services are provided under the strictest confidentiality and I am happy to sign non-disclosure agreements prior to working with you if deemed necessary.

Included in private sessions:

• 30 minute phone consultation to discuss your needs.

• 2 taught sessions, in your own home or via Zoom if preferred. Depending on your needs, 5-6 hours is an average time to ensure all skills are covered and this can be split to your preference.

• Course workbook.

• Downloadable relaxation tracks.

• Pregnancy relaxation kit.

• Access to a range of videos and tutorials through my online portal.

• Unlimited support via phone or email after the course concludes, plus the option for a video call nearer the time to recap key details or changes to your birth plan

To commence the course, you should ideally be between 20 weeks and 34 weeks in gestation, however if you find yourself reading this post 34 weeks then get in touch and I will endeavour to fit you in ASAP. This does happen quite often, so please don’t hold back in getting in touch. It’s normal for that apprehension to kick in late on and that usually leads people to this page!

I also recommend that birth partners attend both sessions as they form an integral part in planning and preparing for birth. If this is not possible due to work commitments etc, then it is perfectly acceptable for another person to stand in for the birth partner, perhaps a close friend or relative.
