My own little babe is now here! 🤍
Our baby boy was born last week and after a very rapid labour, he arrived on our bathroom floor caught by me! We are soaking in our newborn bubble & can’t thank everyone enough for their love and well wishes as we navigate more (!) tiredness and chaos as a family of 4.
Enquiries & messages will be answered as soon as possible and our courses continue to run as normal.
Birth story coming soon 😌

Coercion and criminalising language have no place in maternity care. Yet too many women and birthing people are told their choices are “out of guidance” and face threats of safeguarding, social services referrals, or even police involvement. ⚠️
Midwives who support personalised decisions are also being silenced, bullied, or reported. These practices create fear, mistrust, and push some towards unassisted birth out of pressure, not preference.
Birthrights is launching a campaign to end coercive practices in maternity care and protect the rights of pregnant women and birthing people — and we need your input.
📣 Have you experienced pressure, threats or coercion in your care? Or are you a midwife or birthworker who has witnessed this?
Please share your experience in our short survey for women and birthing people at: https://bit.ly/BR_WBP or if you are a healthcare professional, please scan the QR code below or go to: https://bit.ly/BR_HCP.
Your voice will help us to challenge these practices and push for systemic change.

This weekend we finished our September/October antenatal course and I have taken a pause on teaching for a couple of months whilst I wait the arrival of my own baby very soon 💕
So grateful as ever to teach our wonderful classes together and know that our courses will be in very safe hands with Jan until I return to teaching in 2026🤩
Our courses will continue to run as normal, with November now fully booked and just a few spaces left on our December course. Bookings are now open for January-March too!
Thank you for our fabulous couples this month who made the sessions full of fun, laughter and knowledge 🧠
(No, we didn’t mean to match🤪)

Jo and Paul share their review of the Positive C-Section Workshop 🌟👇🏼
May's Hypnobirthing Session was one of the most valuable and insightful experiences we had preparing for our first child so, obviously, we decided to book in for a refresher session when we were expecting our second.
We found out a few weeks before he was due that we would need a Cesarean and that's when May suggested she could do a Cesarean specific session for us. Like the regular Hypnobirthing session, it was incredibly helpful and informative. We went into the delivery knowing what to expect, what our options and preferences were and how to make the delivery an enjoyable and special experience. We cannot recommend it more highly for anyone planning on having a Cesarean delivery.
The information we received and sense of readiness we felt were amazing which made the experience so much more positive than we had initially expected.
Thank you for all your help May. We are ever so grateful.

What an amazing email to wake up to this weekend from a client of our August group’s course - we’re so happy you love our course as much as we do 🫶🏼✨
“I just wanted to email to thank you and Jan for the last 4 weeks hypnobirthing classes. One of the reasons I’d always been avoidant about having children was the fear of giving birth and when I found out I was pregnant, initially I’d just thought I’d have a c-section.
Although I had got past that, before joining the classes, my thought was still that I’d like a water birth but if I can’t then ‘give me all the drugs’. Although I know that’s fine if it’s what I choose, I no longer feel it’s part of my preference and now feel excited about the whole experience.
Even better it’s changed N’s thoughts too as I think he thought I was being a bit ‘hippy’ with some of my preferences before the classes but now he’s fully on board and understands why.
It’s an amazing course and I’d recommend it to anyone! The knowledge and thought involved is wonderful. It was lovely meeting you both as well and thank you again!”

A real full circle moment! 🥹💫
27 years ago, Jan ‘caught’ Ellie as she entered the world! Jan was Ellie’s mum’s midwife during labour, and this month Ellie and her partner joined us for their Hypnobirthing & Antenatal Course.

Antenatal and Postnatal Classes Taught by Midwives for Positive, Fun and Fearless Parents!
Being pregnant can be pretty hard, right?! Never mind all the birth horror stories that people seem to love to overshare, the unwanted advice from people you’ve just met in the supermarket or perhaps the panic and apprehension that creeps in as the birth gets closer! BUT what about if you got together with a like-minded bunch of parents for some fantastic pregnancy and birth preparation, and threw in a some awesome Midwives and Hypnobirthing teachers (if we do say so ourselves!)? We think (and know!) you’d feel pretty calm, confident and EXCITED (yes, really!) for a positive birth experience - whatever that looks like to you.
Positive Birth Jersey offers midwife-led Hypnobirthing classes, as well as Mindful Breastfeeding and Postnatal preparation programmes. So, what sets Positive Birth Jersey Hypnobirthing classes above the rest?! Our classes are SO much more than just Hypnobirthing! We, of course, equip you with the full toolbox of amazing Hypnobirthing and relaxation techniques, but also deliver a full antenatal and birth preparation programme - from the physiology of labour and birth, how to navigate the modern maternity system, understanding research and recommendations, and how to make informed decisions that are right for you (believe it or not, there are many decisions and choices you will have to make during your pregnancy and birth - and guess what, you're in control!)
We appreciate that sometimes things do not go to plan. Birth can, at times, be unpredictable. It is therefore very important for women and their birth partners to have the knowledge and tools to get the best from the situation that they may find themselves in during labour and birth, and it is important for you to understand the implications of the choices you may be required to make (and, believe it or not, there are lot of decisions and choices to make during labour and birth!)
You are likely to already have thought about your ideal birth and your preferences during birth. Hypnobirthing can help you remain calm, in control and relaxed during your birth experience, whatever the path that your labour may take. Giving birth to your baby can be a positive, empowering and amazing experience - and that’s where we come in!
Forward-thinking, modern, inspiring and fun, Hypnobirthing and parenthood preparation courses with Positive Birth Jersey make a difference to your experience of giving birth, and give you the tools to give your baby the best start in life. We are confident when we say that you will leave our classes feeling inspired, informed, calm, confident and prepared for positive birth and parenthood - whatever that may look like to you!
