  • I am 36 weeks pregnant and began searching for hypnobirthing courses for this pregnancy and birth journey. As soon as I saw Birth With Choice online I knew that we aligned. Eleanor is approachable, knowledgeable and so lovely to speak to. I met with Eleanor for 1:1 chats to discuss my current pregnancy, my previous birth experiences and everything inbetween. Every last detail was thought of during our chats and tailored to my individual needs. She gave me the confidence that I needed during these final weeks and taught me excellent hypnobirthing strategies and signposted me to evidence based information that has been invaluable. I highly recommend booking with Birth With Choice for your antenatal education and hypnobirthing classes. I’m so glad I met Eleanor during this pregnancy! Thank you for everything.

  • Before I came to Birth with Choice I had so many negative preconceptions about labour and pregnancy, but Eleanor has empowered me with so much knowledge and so many techniques that it’s no longer something I fear. Eleanor is calming, assuring, kind, and is clearly so passionate about giving women the power to have the birth they choose. Couldn’t recommend more.

  • Eleanor is an amazing teacher and really tailored my sessions to meet my needs/help me with anxiety following a previously traumatic birth. I feel like the knowledge my partner and I now have will allow us to speak up and advocate for me/our baby when the time comes, and I can’t help but feel excited to put my learning into practice ! If you’re pregnant and nervous about birth you should 100% speak to her! Thankyou Eleanor

  • Just finished an intense course with Eleanor, and it was fantastic! She tailored everything perfectly to what we needed. I’d totally forgotten about the fear-tension-pain cycle, but now I have practical techniques to break it during birth. She also went through the benefits and risks of interventions, so I feel much more confident advocating for my birth preferences. She’s a wealth of knowledge and so supportive. Highly recommend!

  • We absolutely loved the 1:1 online course with Eleanor! I’ve gone from feeling scared about birth to genuinely excited to have my baby! The sessions were so relaxed and supportive, and really tailored to my high risk pregnancy. Eleanor sent all the resources in the post and a gorgeous gift bag too! I’ve been using the aromatherapy rollerball every night when I listen to her audios, it’s bliss! Thank you so much Eleanor!

  • I have to admit, I was a bit unsure about hypnobirthing at first. But decided I would give it a go to support my partner, and really glad I did. Eleanor was absolutely brilliant! I learned how I could be a supportive partner during birth and what to expect on the day. I would definitely recommend it and can’t thank Eleanor enough. If you’re on the fence like I was, it’s worth giving it a go!

  • Hypnobirthing has truly made my birthing journey feel so special! Before I discovered it, I was incredibly nervous and scared about childbirth. But it honestly changed everything for me, and I ended up feeling excited for labor and birth rather than anxious. I would absolutely recommend all mums-to-be to give hypnobirthing a try, especially with Eleanor's teaching style. She is so knowledgeable, calming, and supportive, which makes all the difference in my experience. If you're looking for a more empowering and positive birth experience, hypnobirthing is definitely the way to go!
