ONLINE Group Hypnobirthing Programme

Thank you for your interest in the Serene Beginnings ONLINE Group Hypnobirthing Programme!

This fully comprehensive antenatal Hypnobirthing programme is perfect for expectant parents who want to feel calm, confident and excited about their baby's birth. This transformational birth preparation course will help you to eliminate your birthing fears, build your confidence and teach you everything you need to know to make birth go more smoothly! 

You may be feeling anxious (or even terrified!) about giving birth and are worried about not being in control and all the possible medical interventions. Well here are a few truths you’ve probably never been told…

• It IS possible to have an amazing birth!
• You can actually do a lot of things to help make your labour easier (and maybe even quicker!)!
• You can reduce the pain of contractions and have a more comfortable labour by using a range of effective tools and techniques!
• You can help to avoid birth trauma by feeling in control of your decisions - and I can show you how!

The reality is that, by understanding how birth works best, and using special techniques to relax your body and mind, you absolutely CAN have an incredible birth!

Imagine approaching birth without anxiety or worry, but feeling relaxed, empowered, excited and full of confidence! Imagine welcoming your little one into the world calmly, rather than feeling out of control. This CAN be you!

Taught by Sian, a qualified and experienced hypnobirthing teacher (and also a mum of two!), these birth prep classes take place on a Monday evening from 6.15pm until 8.15pm online via Zoom, and places are limited to just a few couples to ensure an intimate atmosphere and so that the sessions can be tailored to suit you and your needs. Birth partners are welcome to attend too (in fact, it's very much encouraged!).

Class dates:

• Monday 2nd June 6.15pm-8.15pm
• Monday 9th June 6.15pm-8.15pm
• Monday 16th June 6.15pm-8.15pm
• Monday 23rd June 6.15pm-8.15pm

What does the course cover?

• Birth planning.
• How to navigate the maternity system and make informed decisions that are right for you and your baby.
• Plenty more!

This is not just an antenatal course, it’s a step-by-step journey to transforming your mindset and your whole birth experience!

Here's what some of my clients said following their births...

"The whole thing was honestly amazing. It was everything I could have asked for. If someone had told me that my birth would be like that I’d have just said “No, that’s just in my dreams!” so it really was amazing!"    - Carys

"I genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better birth!"   - Lucy

"I can’t thank Sian enough for the experience that I had and without her Hypnobirthing course I don’t think I’d have felt empowered to go for my home birth or have had the knowledge of how to facilitate the calm birth I wished for."   - Holly

This is all possible for YOU too!

Is the course suitable for me? 

This course is suitable for anyone between 14 and 36 weeks pregnant at the start of the course. This course is suitable even if you are classed as having a high risk pregnancy, as the knowledge and tools will be even more important!

Hypnobirthing isn’t some sort of magic that only works for certain people. It’s logical and evidence-based information and effective techniques that will work for absolutely everyone, and will make any birth better, providing you commit to it!

How much does the course cost?

The full investment for this course and the ongoing support up to birth is just £200. You can reserve a space by paying a non-refundable £50 deposit now (this will secure a space for you and your birth partner), and the remaining balance of £150 will be due 14 days before the date of the course. Alternatively, you are welcome to pay in full so you don't need to worry about remembering to pay the remaining balance! Payment plans are available upon request.

I promise this really will be one of the best investments you make for your pregnancy and birth. It's an investment in a more enjoyable and relaxed pregnancy. An investment in a calmer and easier birth for you. An investment in giving your baby the best possible start in life. An investment in knowledge to help you feel in control and avoid birth trauma. 

You only get one shot at this birth, so don't leave it to chance; let me show you how to make it truly memorable for all the right reasons!

Are you ready to start preparing for the incredible, empowering, fear-free birth you deserve?

I can't wait to welcome you into our Serene Beginnings community and to support you to have an amazing birth experience!
