Hypnobirthing Courses
Group Hypnobirthing Courses South Wales, Pontypridd and Caerphilly
Attend with your birth partner
It’s not what you think!
Some hypnobirthing courses will have you focussing on getting your picture perfect birth, that your most ideal image of how your birth looks will happen if you affirm it enough. But wouldn’t you feel more confident and prepared if you had been given the tools to make any birth experience a positive one? If like me, you feel safe when you prepare for all possibilities, then the birth of your baby is the number one life event to put this in to practice.

Is birth unpredictable? Yes, it can be! I know birth can have many twists and turns - and that’s exactly why you need to prepare for it.
How do I know this? I’ve experienced it myself! My second birth didn’t go in any way how I had hoped it to, however, I was fully prepared for any hurdle we had to face and it was the most important factor in me still having an incredibly positive birth experience. So whilst you SHOULD be hoping and aiming for your picture perfect birth, preparing for all outcomes will give you so much more confidence and strength than you can imagine. Combine this with a tonne of pain-coping strategies and you’re well on your way to the positive birth experience you deserve.
You won’t remember the fairy lights but you WILL remember how your birth experience made you FEEL.
My Group Hypnobirthing Course will teach you everything you need to feel calm, confident and in control for birth. You’ll also have opportunity to meet other soon to be parents with similar due dates to you. We’ll spend time chatting through all of your worries and anxieties, building your confidence in yourself and giving you all the knowledge and tools you need to get excited to give birth.
Are you ready to understand what’s going to happen to your body and how your hormones affect labour?
Do you want to learn what you can do to cope with labour pain at each stage of labour?
Do you want to learn how to make induction and caesarean positive should you need them?
Start here: Birth Hormones
If you want your birth to progress smoothly, quickly and more comfortably, your body needs to produce oxytocin. When we feel fearful, anxious, stressed or panicky, our body fills with hormones that prevent oxytocin from working.
In a nutshell:
The more relaxed you are = the more oxytocin you produce = the easier birth is
Hypnobirthing teaches you how to keep good birth hormones flowing and the panicky hormones at bay!

Hannah Stockley, Hypnobirthing Teacher at The New Mums Club
I’m Hannah, the founder of The New Mums Club
I am passionate about supporting mum-to-be’s who are scared of hospitals, labour pain, medical intervention and birth itself, overcome these fears and stack the odds in their favour of having a positive birth experience, however your birth unfolds.
Whether you give birth at home, on a labour ward, in your car or a midwife-led unit, I can give you the tools to feel confident and to manage pain in a realistic way.
I have personally used the hypnobirthing tools I’m going to teach you, in both of my pregnancies and births, two very different experiences and both incredibly empowering.

Hypnobirthing FAQ’s
-
You’ll ideally want to book your course for when you are somewhere between 20 and 34 weeks pregnant. Ideally you’ll have finished the three session Full course before you are 37 weeks pregnant
-
This depends on what you value!
My group hypnobirthing course is £180.
Consider how much you would be willing to spend on material items to get ready for a new baby.. we could easily spend a few hundred pounds on the nursery decorations, a top of the range pram or the changing table we are likely to use 3 times!
You’ll only birth this baby once and it’s an experience that will stay with you forever
-
You’d be surprised at how many birth partners are a little hesitant to begin with - and also how many are fully on board after just the first session! My course isn’t quite like other courses out there - the fluffiness is kept to a bare minimum and theres tonnes of science here!
