“Thanks so much for introducing and teaching us about HypnoBirthing. I never thought I would feel this calm and positive about giving birth and I credit that to the tools learned in the classes!”

— Nicole, first time mom

“Toni, I just wanted to let you know we had a healthy baby boy weighing 6lb 12oz. Everything went to plan having him at home, in a birthing pool and it was also very quick. Just under 4 hours. Thank you so much for being a great teacher during our classes. I don't think I'd have been able to get through it as I did without the HypnoBirthing course.”

— Rachael, first time mom

"I truly can not thank you enough for guiding us through the HypnoBirthing process! We are so glad we chose this process. My birth experience was fairly calm and I believe this is in part to everything we focused on! I only labored for 8h and pushed for 45min no medication or assistance (vacuum/ forceps) at all! My midwives were shocked at how quickly I dilated. I was only at the hospital 2.5h before he was born which is crazy! Again thank you so so much we loved your class and I recommend it to everyone!”

  - Ellena, first time mom

"I really feel empowered and excited for my birthing day which is so wonderful considering before your course I only felt scared and apprehensive about giving birth."

— Jessica, first time mom

“Toni, I just want to thank you for all your help. I truly believe that HypnoBirthing is a powerful and natural way to manage pregnancy and delivery. Thank you!”

— Aditi, first time mom

HypnoBirthing FAQs

 

What is HypnoBirthing?

This is a prenatal class that goes beyond teaching you what to expect in labour and delivery, giving you the tools for an easier birth.

HypnoBirthing®, the Mongan Method is a proven approach to childbirth education that assists parents to birth with greater calm, comfort and ease. Women, birthing people and their partners learn breathing, relaxation and visualization techniques to make labour easier. Birth partners learn the importance of their presence during birth, as well as techniques, birthing prompts and how to gather information to help make the best decisions during labour.

Who takes HypnoBirthing prenatal classes?

HypnoBirthing® is perfect for first time parents who are fearful or worried about labour and birth, as well as experienced parents who weren't happy with their previous birth experience and are looking for something different.

These empowering group classes are for expectant moms/birthing people and their birth companions/partners, whether they plan to birth with a doctor or midwife, with the birth taking place at home, birth centre or hospital.

When should I start my HypnoBirthing prenatal classes?

You can start your HypnoBirthing® prenatal classes early in your second trimester, at the end of your third trimester, or any time in between.

How much time do I need to take HypnoBirthing prenatal classes?

HypnoBirthing® group classes are presented in a 5 week series, with each class 2.5 hours in length.

Can I still take HypnoBirthing prenatal classes if the group classes don’t fit my schedule?

Yes! Private HypnoBirthing® classes are available. Contact us to make arrangements if:

  • Your baby’s expected due date is approaching quickly

  • You or your partner have shift work schedules

  • The scheduled group classes may not work for you for any other reason.

Do I still need to take a standard childbirth education class?

With HypnoBirthing® prenatal classes, you learn about the stages of labour, as well as techniques to potentially shorten those stages. While you learn everything you need to know to achieve a safer, easier and more comfortable birth, some expecting parents who plan to birth at a hospital still choose to attend childbirth education classes at the hospital in addition to HypnoBirthing® group classes to get more acquainted with that birthing environment.

What is the cost of HypnoBirthing group classes?

HypnoBirthing® group classes are presented in a 5 week series for a cost of $495 for each birthing person and partner. Registration includes the HypnoBirthing® book by Marie Mongan, handouts and hypnosis tracks for home practice. Doulas are welcome to attend classes as well, if space permits. Class materials are available for delivery or pick-up that can be arranged upon registration.
