BOSTON HYPNOBIRTHING
Calm, Confident Birth Preparation with Personalized Instruction

LEARN TO BIRTH WITHOUT FEAR
WITH BOSTON HYPNOBIRTHING
WHAT IS HYPNOBIRTHING?
Do you dream of birthing with a sense of calm and trust instead of fear and pain?
The Boston HypnoBirthing series will open your mind to these possibilities and so much more! This series will prepare you and your partner for all things childbirth, equip you with a variety of coping techniques, and teach you to approach birth with confidence, excitement, and empowerment.
The premise of HypnoBirthing is that women’s bodies are perfectly designed to give birth and that fear and tension cause pain in childbirth (not nature’s design) and often unnecessary intervention and complications.
HypnoBirthing teaches women to trust their bodies and the birthing process, to harness the power of the mind-body connection, and to learn how to relax their mind so their body and baby can birth without interference.

THE HYPNOBIRTHING EXPERIENCE THAT'S RIGHT FOR YOU
Whether you’re looking for the connection of a small group class or the flexibility of private instruction, there’s a HypnoBirthing experience designed to meet your needs. Every option is rooted in the internationally recognized HypnoBirthing®: The Mongan Method.
Every class is personally taught by me and reflects more than a decade of experience helping families prepare for pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, newborn sleep, and the transition into parenthood.
