The full hypnobirthing or the condensed course
(Group Classes)
Over 4 weeks this group course is the same at the private one to one course, but taught with a maximum of 5 couples, providing you with an opportunity to meet other expectant partners. Suitable for first, second, third or fourth time mums and dads to be.
Taught in person at my home in Sevenoaks over 4*2-hour sessions each week.
I also offer 2-2 hour sessions as part of a condensed group course. This is my most popular group course and is the same as the full course but condensed into a shorter period of time. All the material and support you get is the same. This hypnobirthing course is also perfect as a refresher, if you have already done hypnobirthing with a previous pregnancy, or if you are short on time.
In the group courses, I also set up a Whatsapp for groups so you can stay in contact with each other to provide advice, support. and friendship during pregnancy and when baby is here.
"We did a group course with Sarah to prepare us for the birth of our first child. Sarah is so knowledgeable and the sessions were extremely enjoyable. I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking into hypnobirthing and wanting to prepare themselves for birth!"
