"The thing about hypnobirthing is that it works." -father

"I have been present at Hynobirthing births and seen how in control the women are, and how also partners are a lot calmer and able to help, and what a difference it really does make to the start of parenthood for them." - midwife  

 "I was keen to keep our birth as natural as possible and more than anything, a calm experience for all of us. I had heard of hypnobirthing and Claire introduced us to the techniques that made it all possible. She is a superb teacher - calm, knowledgable, fun, experienced and most of all, incredibly supportive. So many of her words were ringing in my ears throughout the labour and it meant we made it through to the second stage just at home. I feel very fortunate to have had such a brilliant teacher to help us through the birth of our first baby". Sarah - new mum

We are over the moon to introduce our new addition. Born yesterday evening at 7.34pm, weighing in at just over 8lb. After an 18 and a half hour labour using hypnobirthing and without pain relief to get to fully dilated, he couldn't quite make it out into the world on his own, so ended up with a forceps delivery, so he's a bit bruised at the minute! Been having the best mummy cuddles all night. Can't wait for T to meet him later today! A was amazing at keeping me calm throughout the whole process and I really couldn't have done it without him. A big shout out to the Airedale Hospital midwives too who were incredible! - Laura - mum.

"Labor surpassed all my expectations and was a quick one. 9hrs total and upon reaching the hospital she was ready to come, we had an unplanned water birth and it made such a difference, she came out so calm and it seems to have remained that way so far! "    from a new mum.

Thank goodness for Claire's guidance through our pregnancy and labour with hypnobirthing. Claire taught us some fantastic techniques that helped us keep the birth as natural and calm as possible. Thank you Claire for all your support and wisdom I am so grateful , you made labour a serene and painless experience after two painful labours prior.  With it being the first time of experiencing hypnobirthing Claire was able to help prepare the both of us enabling us to remain calm and peaceful through it all. We were able to experience the pure bliss of welcoming our beautiful baby in to the world panic and pain free at 3 minutes to midnight on a day that we will never forget weighing a healthy 7lb 13oz. Although the labour wasn't the planned water birth we had hoped for due to some complications, with a little gas and air I was able to use the techniques I had been taught and breathed out our beautiful baby in to the world in just under 4 hours. I couldn't have done it without the fantastic support from Claire, my two fantabulous birthing partners and the midwives at Calderdale.
