Hi lovely 💗 I'm still here to help you prepare for your baby's birth, but I'm also helping people change their lives. Here's how:

WHAT IS A THERAPEUTIC COACH?
Someone who’s close enough to care, but far enough away from your problem to help you look at it with different eyes.

NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO? WANT SOMEONE TO LISTEN TO YOU?
I’m here for you. Get the confusion out of your head. Talk through your issues. Make sense of what’s happening in your life. Find a way to move forward.

THIS IS OFTEN ENOUGH TO LEAVE YOU FEELING RELIEVED, LIGHT AND FREE.

All sessions are completely confidential. If you want guidance I’ll give you some ideas. If you just want to talk, just talk and I’ll listen. If you’d like a recording to listen to so that the changes can be programmed in, I’ll make one for your specific issue. 1 ½ hour sessions online or in person.

WANT TO EXPLORE THE ROOT CAUSE OF YOUR ISSUE?

The deep seated reason why you do the things you do can be found using hypnotherapy, and once you understand WHY and WHEN it began, you can let it go and replace it with better thoughts and beliefs. RTT Hypnotherapy 30 day program online or in person.

Let me know if I can help you or someone you know sort out your stuff and live a happier life. I'm here for you 🥰

✨Not sleeping through the night so they have brain fog and poor concentration, and they're exhausted! 💖Bring on deep, sound sleep all night long.
✨Not feeling loved and appreciated in their relationships 💖Feel deeply worthy, loved and loveable, like you're enough.
✨Anxiety causing physical issues like digestion 💖Reframe and release old traumas and feel safe and free.

Hi gorgeous. Is 2025 your time to shine? If you have bad habits, old beliefs, pain or lack in your life, how much longer are you going to put up with them?

In the past month I've spoken to people with these issues:
monthly migraines
unable to set boundaries with their family
afraid to swim at the beach
terrible sleep for 35 years
ongoing anxiety which prevents them from doing the sport they love
fear of driving
unexplained aching feet
feeling lonely even in a crowd
awful menopausal symptoms

Using RTT hypnotherapy, I can help with all these problems. Imagine a life where your problem is completely gone and you are free to thrive?

Hypnotherapy is not scary. You are in complete control. You relax and we have a conversation to find the root cause of your problems.

People are amazed at how simple RTT is. It's not expensive. It's safe and relaxing and can even be fun! It's free to find out more so if you're ready to feel different by Easter, give me a call. There's no obligation if it doesn't feel right to you.

RTT has made a huge difference to my life and I'd love to help you change yours for the better.

What are you waiting for? Could this be the answer to your problems?

A confident partner who knows what to do when you're in labour will make all the difference to your birth. Is your partner ready? Have they learned and practiced simple but powerful tools to make you feel safe and supported during contractions? Do they know how to ask questions and what their role is when you go to Labourland and can't speak up?

Join me for a small, fun 3 hour birth class with your partner to fill in all the gaps and prepare you both for a positive, confident and empowered birth of your precious baby. You'll both love it!

If you had a traumatic birth or postnatal experience, have you noticed that no matter how hard you try to push it down, it pops up again at the strangest moments? Like trying to hold a beach ball under water.

It's likely that your previous experience will hold you back from having a much better birth this time, so why hold onto it when you can set it free with this simple process?

I'm here to support you through a session where you change the way you feel about what happened, so that you no longer feel sadness, anger, distress, anxiety, frustration, disappointment.

Don't take your old stuff into your new birth. I'm here to help you move forward to a fabulous birth and to feel like your old self again.

Even if you're not planning another birth, EVERYONE deserves to have their story heard. You know those 80 year olds who are still telling their story? It's because they've never had someone to help them process it.

Send me a message if you want to learn about my birth debrief sessions. Bookings available now. 🌸Karen

Our Story

Hi beautiful mama!

I’m Karen Shlegeris, passionate birth educator, doula and yoga teacher, and founder of Birth & Baby Village in Noosa on the Sunshine Coast.

For over 20 years I’ve been working with women just like you to demystify birth, so I know how common it is for women to feel afraid of giving birth, overwhelmed with information, and anxious about motherhood.

My intention for Birth & Baby Village is to provide guidance so you can grow to feel confident and excited about your journey to motherhood. I’m here to provide a haven where you will feel heard, supported and inspired but most of all, never alone.
