Our Services

Congratulations on looking to invest in your new family’s future. Many couples spend hours on choosing the ‘right’ pram or nursery furniture but don’t prepare for their baby’s birth or the postpartum period with the same emphasis. The services we offer at Birthing Instincts might just be the most important money you spend. Birthing your baby is so much more than just having a ‘healthy baby’ at the end.

Partners Learn How to Help
“I was feeling worried about the birth right from the time I found out my partner was pregnant. I’d had lots of mates telling some pretty horrific stories, I didn’t want this for my partner and I knew she wanted a different kind of birth. I was sceptical about the HypnoBirthing classes, but I was “in” from the first class. The knowledge, tools, practical skills and confidence the classes gave me genuinely helped me to support my partner and settle my own anxieties. The birth was such a team effort as a result and my partner was amazing!” ~ Dave
Positive Birth is Possible
Birth is really meant to be a positive, enjoyable experience. Nature wants you to do it again and again! HypnoBirthing returns the art of birthing to a woman. It allows her to summon her natural Birthing Instincts and have the best birth possible – bringing her baby safely into a positive environment filled with confidence and love.
