Australia’s #1 Hypnobirthing Childbirth Education Course
Hypnobirthing Australia™’s Positive Birth Program is a comprehensive childbirth education course that combines powerful knowledge with hypnosis techniques for birth. As a certified practitioner and midwife, I teach how birth is a natural and normal process, helping to alleviate fear through understanding.
Hypnobirthing Australia Positive Birth Program
The Positive Birth Program is a 12-hour, evidence-based childbirth education course developed by Hypnobirthing Australia™. It’s designed to equip you with the essential knowledge, confidence, and practical tools to help you achieve a calm, informed, and positive birth—no matter how your baby enters the world.
As a midwife and certified Hypnobirthing Australia™ practitioner, I teach hypnobirthing—an evidence-based childbirth education program that incorporates breathing, deep relaxation, self-hypnosis, massage, acupressure, and a positive mindset. This unique approach helps parents prepare for a calm, empowered, and informed birth experience.
Throughout the program, you’ll learn how to use deep relaxation techniques, release fear, and work instinctively with your body during labour and birth. You’ll also gain a deeper understanding of the physiology of birth, your birthing options, and how to make informed decisions that feel right for you and your birth partner.
Hypnobirthing gives you tools to take control of your birth journey. Rather than feeling like a passenger, you become the driver—confident and connected—whether you're planning a natural birth or caesarean.
You deserve special care and a safe, supported space to prepare for the arrival of your baby. I’m here to walk with you every step of the way.
