Pregnant and Not Sure How to Get Birth Ready?
I've been where you are, so I know exactly how you're feeling. If you're anything like I was, you probably have no idea where to start with birth preparation.
I'm assuming you're feeling overwhelmed by all the advice and antenatal class options, unsure what you actually need to know, and no idea if hypnobirthing is for you or not.
As a local mum of two based in Hartley Wintney, Hampshire, I support parents like you transform worry and anxiety into confidence and empowerment, as you prepare to give birth.
Think of me as your own personal birth cheerleader, holding your hand every step of the way through pregnancy, birth and beyond.

Feel Calm About Birth With My 5* Antenatal Courses

Giving birth is one of life’s biggest experiences, yet so many parents reach the final weeks of pregnancy feeling anxious and underprepared.
My antenatal hypnobirthing course is designed to change that. We’ll explore how birth works, build your confidence, understand your options and learn practical tools to help you work with your body and feel calm, informed and prepared for birth.
Choose from friendly group antenatal & hypnobirthing courses or private 1:1 sessions, with support tailored to you and your birth.
Based in Hartley Wintney, I support expectant parents across Hampshire, Surrey and Berkshire through pregnancy, birth and the transition into parenthood.

"This group course has completely changed my mindset. I've moved from fear to genuinely feeling calm, informed, and even excited about giving birth.
The techniques and knowledge have been so empowering. I now feel more in control, confident in my choices, and able to approach this birth with a positive mindset rather than focusing on past trauma"

What is Hypnobirthing?
Hypnobirthing is a method of totally preparing for birth, equipping you with knowledge, tools and confidence for a positive birth experience.
In a culture full of fear-based birth stories, hypnobirthing helps you release any fear around birth. Evidence shows that when fear decreases and we focus on a positive mindset, tension decreases too, and birth feels more manageable.
You and your birth partner will understand how birth works, exploring your choices, and gaining practical tools to feel calm, confident and in control.
By the end of your antenatal hypnobirthing course, you'll feel excited, informed and empowered for your baby’s birth - however and wherever it happens.

"Taking Fiona’s hypnobirthing course was truly transformative for my birth experience. She helped me feel educated and empowered every step of the way.
Her techniques for relaxation and breathing were incredibly effective during labour, allowing me to stay calm and focused throughout."
Sabrina, Camberley
"Honestly, these sessions are the classes you don't know you need!!
It was such a relief entering these classes and leaving feeling ready to take on the world...or happily just crawl into bed!"

Why Hypnobirthing Works
Hypnobirthing combines the mind and body, using a combination of tools and techniques to help you feel prepared for birth.
My antenatal hypnobirthing courses focus on the following areas to have a calm & controlled labour:
SCIENCE & KNOWLEDGE
Understanding how your body and baby work together reduces fear, tension and pain.
ENVIRONMENT
Feeling safe, private and undisturbed boosts oxytocin and supports a smoother, more comfortable birth.
MINDSET
Surrounding yourself with positive birth stories and information transforms how you approach birth.
TEAMWORK
Your birth partner plays a vital role - supporting decisions, protecting your space and helping you stay calm.
RELAXATION & HYPNOSIS
You’ll learn lots of practical tools & techniques to help get into a calm, focused zone during labour, no matter the environment.
INFORMED DECISIONS
You’ll feel confident asking questions, weighing up information, and making the right choices for you and your baby, even if plans change.
Is hypnobirthing only for natural births?
Hypnobirthing is for any type of birth
I have supported couples for all sorts of birth - everything from planned caesareans and inductions, to VBACs, breech births, twins, natural births and everything in between. Read some of their stories over in the Positive Birth Hub.
Do I need to write a birth plan?
Hypnobirthing is not about being fixated on one type of birth. It's about feeling informed, confident and in control. Writing a birth plan helps you do just that; to focus on your ideal birth scenario but know what your other options are if things change during pregnancy or labour. My job is to give you the tools, knowledge and support to make the decisions that are right for you - however your journey unfolds.
