YOUR BODY, YOUR BABY, YOUR BIRTH
PREPARING YOU FOR THE BIRTH OF YOUR BABY
WITH A ONE OF A KIND COURSE
What La Mama birth prep & hypnobirthing classes are
-
your ticket to a positive birth experience
-
a holistic approach to birth
-
evidence based information to empower
-
all the science and physiology of birth combined with traditional maternal wisdom
-
for ALL births: vaginal, c-section, epidural, drug-free, multiples, first and subsequent births...
​
​
It's for you if:
-
you'd like to enjoy your pregnancy without worrying about labour
-
you want the healthiest, safest and most comfortable labour and birth possible for you and baby
-
you'd like your birth partner(s) to be confident and calm too
-
you want to get the best out of whatever environment you give birth in: no matter the country, space, care team
-
you want to be informed and take control of your experience
What it's not
-
a method of giving birth
-
something you need to 'believe' in
-
something that may or may not work
-
a course that will tell you what you can or can't do: instead it will empower you with all you need to make informed choices
How is it different to other classes?
-
the holistic approach: physical prep, mental prep and emotional prep all in one
-
it's not either or: you can have a 'natural' birth & an epidural, one does not cancel the other one out and this course lifts all preconceptions
-
the La Mama programme doesn't just make you more confident, it wakes up your inner strength and power
-
birth will affect your entire being and life, La Mama guides you to harness this special opportunity
-
not just a birth prep, it's motherhood prep
I strongly believe that your experience as a mum matters and that a ''healthy mum and baby'' is not the best you can expect from this journey but the minimum!
Every birth path will be different and with good preparation you're able to navigate it confidently. And this is what this programme is all about.

Birth is a labour but it's a labour of love.

The best way to experience what hypnobirthing and birth prep has to offer read the La Mama birth stories here.
I offer free 15 min phone or zoom consultations too so you can ask me any questions you may have about the course and its benefits before booking. Please get in touch to arrange a time for me to call you.
GROUP COURSES
LA MAMA group courses are open to mum and her birthing partner(s). In person groups are small (3 couples max) so there's always plenty of time to ask as many questions as you like and I'm able to tailor a lot of the course to you personally. I also like to keep groups small so that you feel as comfortable as possible and it keeps the setting intimate and reassuring. It's also a great opportunity to meet other mamas and their birth partners that are all embarking on the same parenthood boat!
​
The course includes:​
-
around 10 hours of live classes
-
10+ Guided hypnosis and relaxation tracks to download
-
La Mama Course Book and your own account on La Mama with access to lots of support materials
-
My support from the moment you book for as long as you need it.
-
A postnatal reunion, a lovely way to meet up again and show off your little bundles :)
-
The Positive Birth Book by Milli Hill (in person courses only)
​
I am not currently running group courses, I hope to start them up again soon :)
ONE TO ONE COURSES
One to one courses are great if you already have little ones and/or a busy life, different schedules etc, as I can work around you, meeting online or coming to your place of choice at a time that suits. It's also what I would recommend if you or your birth partner have experienced a previous birth that has left you feeling vulnerable or have any strong anxieties around pregnancy, labour and birth.
The course will be tailored to you and your needs as a mother and as a family.
Please get in touch for more details.
