COURSES
Choose your path to a confident birth
and bonding with your baby
The Complete Hypnobirthing Course covers comprehensive antenatal information to set you up towards an informed and confident approach to your baby’s birth, not just breathing techniques.
These classes aren’t just sitting and listening, they’re also interactive as you get to try out the birth positions, massages and practice relaxation. Bring along your birth ball and enjoy learning how to have a better birth experience.

There will be some practical demonstrations and partner work, but you will need to put in more time at home to practice and read the complete course content than in the full course.

These birth preparation workshops focus on teaching or revising the extra information you want to feel prepared for the birth of your baby.
Choose from a range or attend them all, it’s up to you. Unlike hypnobirthing, if your birth partner isn’t able to attend, that’s fine, although there is always great benefit to them understanding everything too!
HORMONES FOR LABOUR
Hormones are hugely important throughout pregnancy and the birth of your baby (and beyond). By understanding how birthing hormones work, you’ll also better understand your birthing body and how interventions such as membrane sweeps and induction impact on your body’s natural processes.
CREATE THE BEST ENVIRONMENT FOR BIRTH
Birthing environments are a cornerstone of birth experiences. As humans we feel most relaxed in comfortable surroundings, and this is no different during birth. No matter where you birth, there are always things you can do to create a better birth environment. Join me to find out more.
RELAXATION & ADDRESSING FEAR
Birth can be scary whether you’ve done it before or you’re a first time parent. This why it’s important to understand why addressing fears plays a big part in how you feel both mentally and physically during birth. In this session we will share our fears, understand how to overcome them, and practice relaxation techniques for pregnancy, birth and beyond.
ACTIVE BIRTHING
When you think of giving birth, you probably imagine being laid on a bed but actually that’s far from the best position for you and your baby. Active birth positions reduce the likelihood of needing interventions, post partum haemorrhage, severe tearing and distress to your baby, plus be much more comfortable for you both.
Come and find out how you could potentially change the path of your birth with some simple tips and tricks.
Baby Massage
Deepen the bond with your baby through nurturing touch
5 x 90 minute sessions
The Birth Boss baby massage course runs over 5 consecutive weeks, providing time to bond with your baby through strokes which benefit you both.
Each week we’ll focus on a new part of the body, building your confidence and your baby’s understanding and enjoyment of massage.
We’ll also discuss why and how massage is good for your baby to help with muscle tone, tummy time, colic and brain development, as well as leave plenty of time for a chat and cake with other parents.
Suitable from birth to 12 months.
If you have a baby with additional needs and would like to talk about how you can do infant massage, please contact me for a chat.
Massage oil included.
Dads also welcome!
PRICE: £55 for the full 5- weeks. £44 to start in week 2.
Group classes will adhere to the latest UK government Covid-19 guidelines.
For residents of the Medway towns and north Kent, if you’d prefer to learn hypnobirthing, do antenatal prep or baby massage in the comfort of your own home, this is for you.
