Private Hypnobirthing & Antenatal Course
​- via Zoom 
​

'We were both very pleasantly surprised how intimate and personal the Zoom sessions were, as ideally we would have liked to met you in person. We both felt an instant warmth and friendliness which made the sessions really enjoyable. You covered A LOT in the sessions, and with so much information it didn't feel overwhelming. 
There's a lot to take in and remember, but the main things have stuck with us. To trust, breathe and relax, and that in itself feels great. As well as the increased confidence that we feel from doing the course with you.
We both felt so at ease with you and therefore could be really honest and open. Thank you for your guidance and support, it has helped us navigate well together to a good place in ourselves and with each other feeling more comfortable, inspired, excited and relaxed about the coming birth experience. We look forward to sharing the next part of our story with you.'

'My husband and I recently took Sofie’s Private Hypnobirthing Course and it is one of the best investments in time and money we have made during my second pregnancy. It was excellent value and went beyond our expectations. I only wish we had taken a Hypnobirthing course for our first baby as we learnt so much and feel much more prepared emotionally and practically this time around. As well as being very enjoyable and a fun experience we covered lots of fear release work (especially about giving birth during a pandemic), relaxation/Hypnobirthing techniques and knowledge based learning. The course is packed full of information and techniques, covering absolutely everything you would ever need to know about pregnancy and the different possible birth journeys. Sofie’s relaxed, friendly and open nature together with her credentials, self-evident expertise and professionalism gave us confidence, reassurance and the tools to prepare for our baby’s arrival tailored to our personal circumstances. If you’re thinking about booking or enquiring about any of Sofie’s courses then don’t hesitate, we highly recommend her services!'

This is a private course delivered over 4 sessions and a follow up session nearer to your due date all via zoom. You will also receive ongoing support via phone/email/text until your little one is born, so consider me part of your birth team!  This course is completely flexible and times and dates will be agreed between us.

You will receive a full Hypnobirthing and antenatal education about what happens to your body during the birth process, your baby's path to birth and what happens in the 'golden hour' after birth. I will guide you through deeply relaxing self-hypnosis exercises and visualisations that you will practice during and between sessions. We will work to release any fears or negative emotions you have around birth and/or parenthood, so that you are confident to fully let go and 'feel' your birth experience in a positive way, rather than fear it. I will ensure you are given all the important information you need, to feel confident and empowered to make the right choices for you and your family around where and how you birth your baby. When the time comes to have your baby everything you have learned and practiced should harmonise together, so you can turn your 'thinking brain' off and trust your body to let your baby come through; safely and easily.

You are welcome to do the classes alone, however I do encourage you to bring a birth partner, so you can practice the techniques together and support each other throughout your birthing journey.

The best time to start a course is in your second trimester (from 20 weeks). To get the most out of your course it is advised that you practice the skills every day until you go into labour.

  • A tailored Hypnobirthing course to meet your needs over 4, 2.5 hour via Zoom 
  • 2 check in & relaxation sessions before your due dates - 1 hour each via Zoom
