Techniques that you learn throughout the course will help you achieve a deep state of relaxation, enabling your body to open up without resistance. 
You will learn tools to help bring yourself into a calm state, if your birthing takes a different turn to expected or if you have difficulties with the intensity experienced.
Your birth partner will learn ways to help you throughout pregnancy and birth. This is very useful for the mother and very empowering for the birth partner.

Hi! I'm Christa

DOULA, EDUCATOR, MUM OF 4, EXPERIENCED HYPNOBIRTHING PRACTITIONER

I’ve been a doula and childbirth educator since 2010. I have a Bachelor of Health Science (Health Promotion) and a Master of Philosophy (Health Science). I am currently completing a Master of Counselling at the University of Canberra.

When I gave birth for the first time, I had a traumatic experience... and THEN I learned about hypnobirthing! When I became pregnant only 4 months later with my second child, what I learned with hypnobirthing changed my life. I have had three amazing "hypnobirths" and have spent the past 14 years helping mums feel confident and excited to give birth!

"confidently navigate any obstacles and challenges that arose"

Liz, first time mum

"Christa is truly amazing! The support and knowledge she provided throughout my pregnancy & birth made welcoming our first child into the world a beautiful positive experience.

The hypnobirthing course and online program gave us the knowledge and tools to really understand birth and feel informed and empowered throughout our journey and to confidently navigate any obstacles and challenges that arose.

The support Christa provides as a doula is absolutely incredible and she had such a positive impact on my birth experience. She made us feel safe and calm and provided amazing help and support in so many different ways.

I can not recommend Christa enough!!! She is a beautiful person and makes you feel truly cared for and supported during such a special time."
