“I went into the class apprehensive about birth…
I left the class feeling relaxed and actually excited about the birth.”
RACHEL BERRY
The Confident Hypnobirthing Approach
RELEASE
Let go of fear and limiting beliefs.
RELAX
Learn to relax your mind and body.
PREPARE
Get your birth partner and team on board.
TRUST
Build trust in yourself and your body.
Knowing about birth is one thing. Knowing what to do when you’re in it is another.
You may already be attending antenatal classes, talking with your midwife and listening to podcasts. You’ve put thought into preparing for birth.
Now you want to know how to do the breathing, how to relax your body and how your partner can help. You want someone to explain it clearly and guide you through it.
That’s the focus of Confident Hypnobirthing. You’ll learn a simple set of practical techniques, with step-by-step guidance on how to use them and when they can help during birth.
Your partner gets clear instructions too, so the responsibility for showing them what to do doesn’t fall on you.

MEET CLAIRE
Hi, I’m Claire.
I’ve been teaching hypnobirthing since 2010 and have supported more than 1,500 couples as they prepare for birth.
I have a degree in education, and I care about making the techniques clear and easy to follow. My passion is the mind–body connection: helping you understand how to settle your mind, relax your body and use those skills for birth.
You don’t need to arrive knowing how to do any of it. I’ll guide you step by step and teach your partner how to support you too.
My teaching is warm, down-to-earth and light-hearted. Questions are welcome, including the ones you think you should already know the answers to.
Hypnobirthing became personal for me when I used the tools during the birth of my son, Oli, in 2010. The video below shares a little of that experience.
THE BENEFITS START BEFORE BIRTH
Preparation can feel good too.
A guided relaxation at the end of the day. A massage from your partner. A few quiet minutes to breathe and connect with your baby.
The techniques give you ways to slow down during pregnancy, while becoming familiar with what helps you relax.
Your partner learns your preferences along the way: which words reassure you, what touch feels good and when you prefer quiet.
These small moments help you prepare together and build confidence in the support you’ll have during birth.
“I now tell every pregnant friend that they must do this course!”
“Claire showed me that I was capable of a calm birth where I was in control of my experience. I went on to experience two empowering births at home with both my daughters.”
