Private Hypnobirthing Course on the Fylde Coast or Online
My private Hypnobirthing course offers a calm, compassionate space for you and your birth partner to prepare for every type of birth — with care and support that’s focused entirely on you.
Whether we connect online or in person, I’ll be by your side throughout your pregnancy journey, providing evidence-based education, practical tools, and honest, empowering guidance.
You’ll learn how to feel calm, confident, and in control as you approach birth — with a deep understanding of your choices and the skills to make informed decisions along the way.
My aim is to help you trust your body, reduce the likelihood of medical interventions, and step into your birthing experience with clarity and confidence.
What will I learn on a Private Hypnobirthing Course?
Your Hypnobirthing course will be bespoke to you, but will cover all of the below:
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!

We loved the Hypnobirthing course!! This is my first baby and I really wanted to educate myself on all things childbirth and ensure I can navigate the NHS maternity system with ease and empower myself. This course did exactly that for me. Everyone thinks it all about breath work and refusing pain relief, but it’s so much more than that!!! Both me and my partner had negative perceptions and now with Eleanor’s course we can work on our positive mindset. Highly recommend! A well worth investment into your health and baby.

What if I’m due sooner?

I cannot recommend Birth With Choice highly enough! Having anxiety from a previous birth experience me and my partner decided to look into hypnobirthing. From the moment we started speaking to Eleanor she put me at ease with how warm and friendly she is. We learnt so much from the course and it prepared us to feel confident in our decisions and empowered about our birth and we ended up having the most positive birthing experience.
Eleanor goes above and beyond to make sure you feel supported throughout. She has a clear passion for what she does and a genuine desire to help people.
Thank you so much Eleanor. So pleased we met you 😊

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. Simply select Intense Course when booking and I’ll handle the rest.
