A private Course in the comfort of your own home, a local studio or online
My hypnobirthing masterclass private course is inspired and creatively put together providing you with all you need to know to prepare for the arrival of your little one in one succinct course which fits around busy lifestyles. A combination of live, pre-recorded and written content, from a hypnobirthing coach who delivers training to midwives within the NHS, my course gives you another perspective to go alongside NHS advice.
​
A full antenatal preparation course bespoke to you with time to ask questions on a 1:1 basis.
​
You were able to give such fresh perspective through the way that you opened up the space or me to share. I am so grateful for you listening to me and giving
me the tools.
​
Perhaps you are considering how you will manage the level of pain that labour can bring about and want to better understand the pain relief options available. Or maybe you are hoping to avoid pain relief altogether but are unsure how to achieve this. I can provide you with what you need to feel able to manage pain realistically and feel excited about your birth.
​
You are never going to forget the day you gave birth so let's worth together to stack the odds in your favour of having a calmer experience!
​
The cost of this course is £289 per couple or solo pregnant person.
​

How does the course work?
You and your birth partner (where relevant) will be coached through the masterclass which is approximately 4 hours. The beauty of it being a private course is that there are no other couples present and you can take your course on dates/times to suit you. You can also use the consultation call to determine which of the below topics you feel are most relevant to you and if there are any you would prefer to tailor to your circumstances a bit more.
A private course is perfect if:
-
The group course dates don't fit your availability.
-
You are further along in pregnancy and do not have time to wait for fixed group course dates.
-
You have done hypnobirthing before and would like to focus on specific things in your course rather than all of the below you may already know.
-
You live further away and need an online course.
-
You love the sound of a truly bespoke package tailored to you - who wouldn't!
-
Your birth partner is anything like my husband and when you talk to them about taking a course, they say, "no way am I sitting in a group talking about this stuff!"
As this is a private course it's hard to say exactly the length of time I will spend with you. I will share the masterclass with you and then there will be time to ask questions. Typically I will be with you for around 4 hours held across 2x sessions covering full antenatal birth preparation on a 1:1 basis.
Sessions take place at your home (cost of travel covered within 5 mile radius of Taunton town centre, charged per mile thereafter - please enquire before booking), in a private venue (pictured below) in Taunton or online. Availability for sessions is on a Monday or Saturday evening.
​
You will also have mini masterclasses pre-recorded to go through in your own time.
​
We have to thank you for empowering us to ask
questions and challenge the choices of care
not just for the birth but for our twins too! One of
the paediatrics Drs who was there at the birth told me
the room was so lovely, calm & peaceful. I was
relaxed and they were relaxed. (private course clients)
​
N.B As this is a masterclass course, there will be an element of reading/watching videos to be undertaken in your own time in addition to attending the session.
​
You can upgrade your course to include a power hour with me for just £11 more taking the total cost of your antenatal education to £300. Please book and then email me for this option. More details about power hours can be found by clicking below.
