Every couple who attends the hypnobirthing course will receive the following to support them on their birthing journey:

1. 4 x 2.5 hour (10 hours in total) course to give you full antenatal preparation and hypnobirthing training - no shortcuts.
2. 8 MP3 relaxations to use during pregnancy and at the birth
3. A file of course notes to support the course
4. The Hypnobirthing Book written by Katharine Graves to support the course
5. Email and phone support from your teacher until your birth
6. Exclusive membership of 'WondrousBirth Hypnobirthing Hub' on Facebook with all past and present attendees which provides parents with a wealth of knowledge and experience before and after the birth.
7. Hot drinks and biscuits and/or fruit are provided during each session.
    

You will receive some MP3s via email upon receipt of the deposit (£100) so that you can start listening to them right away. The rest will follow during the course.

As you prepare for your birth, the enormity of looking after a baby dawns on you. If you are looking for a course to prepare you for those early days, then these 2 x 2 hour postnatal sessions will give you an excellent start:
 

Session 1:
Feeding, changing, clothing and bathing
What should be in your baby's nappy
Sleep expectations
Safe co-sleeping
Safe sleep guidelines
Bonding
Baby wearing

Session 2:

Over 80% of UK mums attempt to breastfeed but very few continue to do so. The main reason is due to massive pressure followed by poor support and inaccurate expectations.

In addition to the course, I will provide free online and phone support to attendees who wish to have it and I can do home visits at a small fee depending on distance or they can visit me. Should I be unsure, I will signpost the mums to the relevant professional.

My support is in no way medical but an added helping hand from a mother who has breastfed for 8 years and worked as a postnatal doula supporting other mothers and friends to breastfeed and signposting them to professionals where needed.
