Hypnobirthing for a Caesarean Birth

A caesarean birth is major abdominal surgery and approaching an elective caesarean or the possibility of once, can come with apprehension and fear. This fear can build throughout pregnancy and result in a more stressful birthing experience.

A calm caesarean course helps you to prepare positively for a caesarean birth; releasing fear, knowing the choices that are yours to make and having the tools to make your birth as and recovery as positive as possible.

The Details

    • A Calm Caesarean Course is 5 hours, split into two sessions and delivered in the comfort of your own home or online.

      This course can be seen as an alternative to a full Hypnobirthing Course or as an add on to a full Hypnobirthing Course.

      A phone consultation before our first session will allow me to tailor the course to you, so that we can make the most of our time together.

    • If you’re local to me in Lytham (or nearby), the course will take place in the comfort of your own home (or online if you prefer). I’m very happy to travel to your home if you live further away, please note a fuel surcharge may apply if you live over 30 minutes away. 

      If you live outside of the North West, your course will take place online via Zoom and your course materials will be posted to you.

  • Your investment in feeling calm, confident and in control of your birth and recovery is £250 for both yourself and your birth partner. This is discounted to £225 if you have taken a full hypnobirthing course.

I can't recommend Birth with Choice enough! Eleanor was absolutely amazing - so knowledgeable, supportive, and reassuring throughout the entire course. The techniques she taught us have made me feel so much more relaxed and confident about birth. Before the classes, I felt quite anxious, but now I genuinely feel prepared and empowered. The breathing exercises, visualisations, and relaxation methods she shared are invaluable. It was well worth the money, and I would highly recommend it to anyone expecting a baby. Thank you, Eleanor, for making such a difference in our journey! Ciara, March 2025
