Hypnobirthing classes and breastfeeding support in Harrogate, North Yorkshire.

World Breastfeeding in Public Day… it always makes me a little uncomfortable to be honest! Not the actual act of breastfeeding out and about - anyone who knows me knows that I will ALWAYS champion breastfeeding anywhere and everywhere. But the “in public” bit makes it almost sound like something taboo - is it just me that hears it that way?! I much prefer “breastfeeding out and about”!

Nonetheless, here I am sharing by absolute favourite breastfeeding picture - with a two year old little Maddie at my graduation ceremony. Two of my proudest achievements wrapped up in one little photo. Hopefully the more we can re-normalise this normal part of being a mammal, the less we will need a day like today… it will just be expected that a breastfeeding parent will feed their baby whenever and wherever needed 🤱🏻🤍

There’s just one space left for my next Hypnobirthing Masterclass on Sunday 8th March!

Perfect for first time parents, or for people who have had a baby/babies before and want to feel calmer and more in control this time around.

Led by an experienced hypnobirthing practitioner and NCT-trained antenatal teacher, this masterclass gives you the confidence, clarity and reassurance to approach birth feeling relaxed, prepared and empowered.

Don’t just take it from me! Here are some things my previous clients have said…

“Thanks to Lauren, I went into my birth confident and relaxed which set me up beautifully. I look back on my birth with positivity, although it required me to really dig deep, I accomplished a lot that day. I genuinely cannot wait to do it again” - Megan (first time mum)

“Thank you for everything you’ve done for us! As you know I was so anxious about everything after our experience with *first baby* but you helped us to change our outlook completely. I don’t think I would have had such a lovely birth experience this time if it wasn’t for you.” - Hannah (second time mum with a history of birth trauma)

🌟 My most asked question! 🌟

The Confident Birth Course is the one for you if…
🌟 You want to combine a full antenatal course with hypnobirthing content, rather than paying for both separately
🌟 You want to feel informed and ready for the realities of giving birth in a stretched system
🌟 You want to feel fully prepared for labour and birth and know ALL of your options and how to advocate for yourself
🌟 You want to build your confidence caring for your baby in the early days
🌟 You want to build a network of similarly minded new parents, who will be your supporters and friends during parental leave AND BEYOND!
🤍 The Confident Birth Course is a super-charged, fully comprehensive antenatal course, including everything you’d learn in another antenatal course and SO. MUCH. MORE.

The Hypnobirthing Masterclass is the one for you if
🌟 You’re feeling anxious about birth and you want to change your perspective and learn techniques to stay calm, whatever direction your birth takes
🌟 You want to feel confident navigating birth and advocating for yourself
🌟 You have had a baby before and want a refresher, or you’re hoping for a more empowered experience this time around
🌟 You are doing an antenatal course somewhere else but you also want to learn hypnobirthing techniques for your birth
🤍The Hypnobirthing Masterclass is an absolute POWERHOUSE, designed to help you understand how your nervous system affects how birth unfolds, the importance of staying calm - and, of course, loads of techniques to help you do just that!

Whichever one you choose, you’ll leave feeling not only prepared, but excited, confident and ready to be the main character in your birth 💪

You won’t just lie back and let things happen to you, you’ll know how to advocate for yourself and how to stay in control every step of the way 🫶

I have learnt a LOT about pregnancy, labour, birth and breastfeeding since this picture was taken. But back then, I was a very different person.
Looking at this picture, I wish I could give that version of me a hug and tell her she’s stronger than she knows and that she CAN DO IT! And she will do it. And she’ll love it. And it will change her life in every way imaginable…
And that’s what I try to do with all my clients. Hold you in a metaphorical hug, hold space for your worries and leave you with a sense of empowerment. Leave you feeling able to advocate for yourself and knowing you can reach out to me for a chat at any time.
I will become the cheerleader/supporter/friend to you that I wish I’d had back then 🥰

2016! This feels like yesterday and a thousand years ago all at the same time. Honestly a ridiculous amount of my 2016 photo roll is dedicated to cats and vegan food. But it’s wild how few photos I actually took that year. 226! I’m pretty sure I took that many pics in the first week of Theo’s life alone. How times have changed 🥰

Calm birth preparation still matters, but calmness without confidence often isn’t enough.

Preparing for birth today means understanding your body AND the maternity system you’re giving birth in.

It means having tools for relaxation AND guidance for real-life decisions.

A positive birth isn’t about everything going exactly “to plan”. It’s about feeling informed, supported and able to advocate for yourself, whatever path your birth takes 🤍

✨ If you’re preparing for birth and want realistic, supportive guidance alongside hypnobirthing tools, this is exactly what we focus on in my classes.

My upcoming sessions are nearly full, so if you’ve been thinking about joining, now’s a great time to reach out.

Save this for later, share with someone preparing for birth, or message me if you’d like more information 🤍

If birth feels really big and overwhelming right now, I want you to know that nothing has gone wrong. You’re not behind. You’re not failing at being calm.

It’s completely normal for excitement, fear, curiosity and uncertainty to all exist at the same time.

You don’t need to have all the answers today.

What does help is feeling supported, informed and safe. Emotionally AND physically. Birth feels less overwhelming when you understand what’s happening in your body and know how to stay calm through it.

One small thing you can try today…
Place one hand on your tummy, take one slow breath (in through your nose, out through your mouth) and remind yourself: I don’t have to do this all at once.

You are allowed to take birth preparation one gentle step at a time 🤍

✨ Save this for the days it feels heavy
✨ Share with someone who might need it
✨ And if you’d like support preparing calmly and confidently for birth, my antenatal and hypnobirthing classes are open for booking now - message me for details 🤍

Would you feel prepared, calm and excited? Or anxious, scared and nervous?

How you feel when you go into labour can have a huge impact on how labour progresses. When labour starts, if you are fearful, that has an impact on your nervous system and your whole body. We become tense when we’re scared and our muscles can’t work as efficiently (which is super important because the uterus is a muscle!).

If you feel calm and in control, your body can relax and the labour hormones can flow freely.

Get in touch to find out how I can work with you to help adjust your birth mindset. You deserve to feel calm, prepared and excited - you’re going to meet your baby soon! 🤩

Good birth preparation is about understanding what’s available to you, knowing how maternity care works and feeling confident making decisions along the way.

The Confident Birth Course is modern antenatal education designed to help you understand your options, navigate today’s maternity system and approach birth feeling calm, informed and supported.

This is comprehensive preparation, combining evidence-based information with practical tools that support your body, mind and nervous system.

No fear-mongering. No fluff.

Just honest guidance for real births, in the real world.

🤍 Because confidence comes from knowing what’s happening - and knowing you have choices.
