The Confident Birth Reset was made for you - if you’re planning to “go with the flow”?
Fancy seven days of FREE birth prep, sent straight to your inbox? If you’ve been planning to just ‘see what happens‘. But now you’re hearing…“You’ll definitely need the epidural.” “Let’s just hope you don’t need an induction.” “You can’t plan for birth, so don’t bother.” And suddenly “go with the flow” doesn’t feel quite so calm anymore. I’ve got you covered.
The Confident Birth Reset isn’t just facts about birth.
It’s for what’s going on underneath. The fears you haven’t said out loud. The pressure to be chill when you’re actually freaking out. The part of you that’s craving reassurance, not opinions.
You’ll get brand new resources including: a Birth Partner Pro Guide - that’s not your standard generic advice; relaxation audios to ease the noise in your head; a fear-reframing masterclass for when the “what ifs” take over and so much more.
Birth With Choice Online Library
The moment you join a Birth With Choice Hypnobirthing course, you’ll unlock immediate access to our online resource library, designed to support you every step of the way.
Inside, you’ll find a collection of on-demand masterclasses, evidence-based guides, soothing relaxation audios and practical tools to help you feel calm, informed and confident about birth.
It’s everything you need, all in one place, so you can start preparing for a positive birth experience straight away!
How it feels to be ‘incredibly prepared’ for birth
Holly was unbelievably strong yesterday - her mental and physical preparation for birth was absolutely critical to ensure she felt ready for it. We listened to your audios on the drive to the hospital - it was soothing for both of us, but especially Holly as she struggled to come to terms with such sudden increases in contractions & back pain.
She definitely thought about your messaging whilst she breathed down, through her body, as she contracted in the final stages of labour. It also helped me to say the right, positive words, and avoid unconsciously stressful comments at the wrong times. I think Holly's confidence with herself is at an all-time high. She is mentally stronger & she has made some lovely friends, including yourself, and now others too at Bump & Brew.
Reflecting on the events of the last 48 hours, it is just totally clear how incredibly prepared we were for this birth, and Holly was just this empowered version of herself. She was so in tune with her body and her mind. It was amazing to be a part of.
Hey, I’m Eleanor
Founder of Birth With Choice, psychology graduate, Multi-Award-Winning Hypnobirthing teacher, and mum of two. I’m so glad you’re here.
Today’s maternity system is stretched. Intervention rates are rising, appointments are rushed, and many parents are left feeling anxious, unheard, or unsure where to turn. That’s where Hypnobirthing comes in and why I do what I do.
My mission is simple: to help you feel calm, confident, and in control of your birth, however it unfolds.
Because birth preparation should be more than a checklist.
You deserve real knowledge — not just about what might happen, but how to work with your body, how to make informed choices, and how to feel mentally prepared no matter what comes your way.
Whether you’re planning for a physiological birth, an induction, or a caesarean, Hypnobirthing can give you the tools to approach it with strength in your mind, trust in your body and confidence in your choices.
If you’re looking for more than just ‘get through it’...
If you want to feel heard, informed, and ready...
Then I’d love to support you.
Let’s prepare for a birth that works for you.

Ciara’s positive experience with Hypnobirthing as a first-time-mum
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!

What is Bump & Brew?
Bump & Brew is a free, monthly meet-up for mums-to-be on the Fylde Coast — hosted by Birth With Choice and The Pregnancy Emporium.
Think: less awkward small talk, more “oh thank god, someone gets it.”
It’s a cosy, relaxed space to connect with other pregnant women, sip something warm, and get real support, from each other and from local birth experts who actually know what they’re talking about.
Who is Bump & Brew for?
Whether you’re a first-time mum trying to ‘go with the flow’ but secretly feeling a bit overwhelmed or a second-time mum still carrying the weight of a birth that didn’t go how you hoped - we would love to see you there.
We wanted to create something low-key, supportive and genuinely useful - where you can meet other local mums-to-be, feel held by experts, and maybe even start building that village everyone keeps telling you about!
So expect mums, just like you, wanting to feel a little more informed, a little more confident and a lot more supported.
Bump & Brew Summer Special
Hosted by: Birth With Choice, The Pregnancy Emporium & Juniper Plum Photography
Pack a picnic, meet other local mums, and soak up the same warm, welcoming vibe - just with sand between your toes.
Older siblings are welcome if needed — but just a heads up, this gathering is mainly about you. The conversations, the connection, the calm — it’s all for mums to talk, share, and breathe for a moment.
And if you fancy it, you can book a Beach Mini Session (Maternity or Motherhood) with Juniper Plum Photography.
Think: tiny toes, bump shadows, and golden hour cuddles you’ll want to remember forever.
