TRUE BIRTH
Midwife led classes that are Truthful, Realistic, Unbiased and Evidence-based.
Do you want antenatal classes that give you realistic expectations, that empower you, that give you confidence and that teach you that there is no right or wrong way to give birth? Do you want your teacher to be experienced, honest, and factual? Then TRUE birth classes are for you! Always Truthful, Realistic, Unbiased and Evidence based. Midwife led classes that do not advocate one way of birthing over another, just teach you to make informed decisions based on facts and not fear so you can make the right choices for you and your family!
ABOUT ME
Specialist in Tocophobia, Previous Birth Trauma and Fear.
Where do i start! I have been a midwife for nearly two decades (!), I am a mother of 3 Hypnobabies, I am a Birth trauma resolution therapist, Doula, Hypnobirthing teacher, baby massage instructor and all around birth enthusiast!
I very VERY strongly believe that there is no right or wrong way to give birth and this is reflected in my classes. I do not teach about 'natural' birth, and instead teach about positive birth. This may be at home or in the hospital, with no drugs or with lots of drugs, vaginally or abdominally........in my classes there is NO BIAS and NO JUDGEMENT. I can help prepare you for whatever birth you or your baby needs.
I use my years of experience of Hypnobirthing, both personal (I have used it 3 times!) and professional to teach you techniques that will keep you feeling calm and in control before, during and after the birth of your baby. I can use my years of midwifery experience to discuss practical ways to help yourself and I can use my years of Doula experience to help prepare your birth partner to.
I look forward to meeting you soon x

Claire was an amazing support to us on our journey to parenthood. She was so kind, knowledgable, honest, fun and truly caring. Everyone deserves to have a Claire in their corner when they are having a baby! ❤

' I just wanted to let you that we welcomed into the world our son, weighing 7lbs 4oz. I was super lucky and had the most amazing water birth at the Abbey Birth Centre with some gas and air. My surges actually started 3am New Years Day so ended up having quite a long latent phase, but we used all the amazing hypnobirthing techniques you taught us. I had the MP3’s playing constantly for the 3 nights/2days along with my birth playlist (which drove S a little mad listening to it for so long haha) but it really helped me zone in. S was absolutely amazing making sure I had lots of food and drink to keep my energy up and making sure I rested sometimes just getting 2min naps in, in between each surge. The light touch massage was an absolute god send especially when transitioning into active labour. S also talked me through our breathing techniques for every surge. I used a tens machine and also had a couple of showers and a bath which really helped. Thank you so much for giving us these invaluable techniques that enabled us to have the most amazing birth. The Abbey Birth Centre was such a wonderful experience'

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Answering all Your Questions
I AM HAVING A C SECTION, WILL HYPNOBIRTHING STILL WORK?
ABSOLUTELY! Hypnobirthing is not about natural birth, it is about learning a set of techniques that will help you in ALL birth scenario's! I can tailor the course so it is all about positive C section.
MY BIRTH PARTNER IS SCEPTICAL, DO THEY HAVE TO ATTEND?
It is very common for birth partners to be sceptical as Hypnobirthing can be seen as a bit 'hippy', but I promise it is not! The way I teach is very evidence based and scientific and birth partners usually respond really well to this style of teaching. Sometimes they end up more enthusiastic than the woman/birthing person! One dads review of my classes was 'It was Bull S#@t free'!
DO YOU OFFER GROUP SESSIONS?
I mainly do 1-1 sessions, but if you have any friends that would like to join you, then I can do group sessions and you would all receive a dioscount!

Birth partners role and LOADS more.....
