Group Hypnobirthing in Preston

Join our warm, supportive community of expectant parents in a calm and friendly environment on the Fylde Coast.

My approach combines evidence-based antenatal education with a compassionate and honest teaching style, ensuring that you feel confident, informed, and empowered.

Throughout the course, you'll connect with others, ask questions, and gain practical tools to help you feel calm and in control as you prepare for your birth.

My aim is to equip you with the knowledge and skills to make informed decisions, reduce the likelihood of medical interventions, and approach your birthing experience with confidence and trust in your body.

  • Understand the impact fear can have on birth and discover practical tools to help you work with your body for a smoother and more comfortable birth.

  • Get a clear picture of what to expect during labour, including the science behind birth, the different stages of labour, the role of birthing hormones, the best birth positions for you, and when to call your midwife.

  • Learn simple, effective ways to manage pain using techniques like massage, breathing exercises, and visualisation—all designed to help you stay calm and relaxed. You’ll explore how to adapt these tools for however your birth unfolds and gain a full understanding of your natural and pharmaceutical pain relief options.

  • Understand how to make the most of the maternity system, with the knowledge to navigate common medical interventions and feel confident in creating a positive experience, no matter how your birth unfolds.

  • Get expert advice on your birth options, rights, and how to make informed decisions, plus practical steps for writing a birth plan that reflects your choices.

  • Equip your birth partner with practical, supportive tips to help them play an active and helpful role throughout your pregnancy and birth.

  • Feel mentally prepared for the fourth trimester by focusing on your emotional, physical, and mental wellbeing.

  • Plus, so much more!

Am I too late in my pregnancy to do a Hypnobirthing course?

It is never too late to prepare for you birth! An Intense Hypnobirthing Course is 4 hours (delivered over one session) and is suitable for those who have found Hypnobirthing later on in their pregnancy.

This focuses on the essentials and will help you to feel as prepared as possible in a shorter time frame. This does not cover everything I would love to teach you and I would always recommend a full Hypnobirthing course, if you have the time. 

Your investment in an intense Hypnobirthing course is £200 for both you and your birth partner. Available online or in person.  

Until I found Birth With Choice, I had zero knowledge about birth and honestly expected it to be a pretty awful experience. I didn’t realise how much of Hypnobirthing is rooted in science and how understanding what’s actually going on can make such a difference!

Eleanor broke down everything in such a clear way, learning about the mind-body connection, pain cycles, and practical techniques really changed my perspective. Instead of ‘going with the flow’ I feel prepared, informed and actually excited to feel the sensations of birth.

Highly recommend this to anyone who feels clueless or worried about birth. Thank you so much Eleanor! xxx
