Prepare FOR BIRTH
On a deeper level you know that birth is special, it is sacred, and part of your desire is to birth peacefully and joyfully, and to bring birthing back to the relational, empowering and joyful experience that it CAN be.
HypnoBirthing® mums have:
Less Fear approaching birth
Fewer interventions and surgical births
Decreased use of oxytocics
Shorter first and second-phase labour
Fewer pre-term and low-weight babies
Lessened or eliminated need for analgesia
Happier and content mothers and babies
Babies alert; able to nurse almost immediately
Few cases of post-partum depression reported
Infants with higher than average APGAR score
Preparing for your birth is a special time, and whilst general antenatal classes will give you knowledge of medical birth basics and what to expect within hospitals, as I experienced personally, they may not leave you feeling confident or relaxed in your mind and body about giving birth.
Giving birth inspired me to train as a HypnoBirthing® childbirth educator in 2014. I teach the official Mongan Method of HypnoBirthing, and passionately believe all parents should have the opportunity to learn these amazing techniques and skills not only to support a relaxed pregnancy and positive birth experience, but to have these skills to support your parenting and beyond in life.

We were so happy with our decision to hire Meagan as our Hypnobirthing coach. My husband and I found her sessions to be not only full of information and support, but also extremely relaxing and took us to a meditative state each week. We looked forward to each class and really feel as if we benefited from what we were taught, both for our birthing experience but also for our every day life. She took away the fear we had in our mind surrounding birth, and filled us with excitement. I would recommend hiring Meagan to anyone wanting to open their minds and experience a calm and nurturing birth experience. Thank you so much for allowing us to take the journey with you.
Dannielle & Damien
‘I was able to use hypnobirth breathing all through the first phase of labour at home, and I also feel that the meditations and calm environment we created helped to bring on spontaneous labour a few hours after my membranes ruptured. We actually turned up to the hospital fully dilated and very calm. As one midwife said to me "you look too happy for someone whose contractions are 2 minutes apart". Needless to say there were quite a few surprised people (me included) when they did check the dilation!’
Sophie & Alastair
‘We welcomed our baby girl into the world after a very quick 4.5 hr birth. We nearly didn’t make it to the hospital in time! It was intense from the start with surges close together and strong, so my calm breathing helped me cope. The midwives said I did amazingly breathing the baby down when I got there too. I used no pain management at all due to it being so fast. We are really excited she is finally here, and I feel positive towards my birth experience- even though it was a whirlwind at the time. Thanks for all your support through HypnoBirth!’
Amelia & Tom
‘I recently completed my HypnoBirthing course with Meagan via online zoom classes. With stage 3 restrictions in place at the time, being able to take the course via zoom was invaluable. Me and my partner felt safe and comfortable at home and Meagan went to every effort to make the course run smoothly and easily. The course was particularly important because all of the hospital classes were cancelled due to restrictions and I was feeling dis-empowered and uneducated about my pregnancy. The HypnoBirthing course provided us with all the answers to our questions and a huge amount of knowledge we didn't know we didn't know! I went from feeling in the dark and overwhelmed to feeling confident, skilled and relaxed. The course brought me and my partner closer together, got us on the same page and connecting in a very meaningful way. Meagan was a great facilitator, I highly recommend her, participating via zoom was a fantastic way to take the course and stay safe, calm and relaxed’. Lou
'We can truly say the course has been absolutely eye opening for both of us, way beyond the part of birthing our little one, but we will treasure the learnings for the rest of our life. We are so grateful to have met you, you are such a special soul, have such a talent and special gift so keep being so awesome at what you do and sharing it with others.' Mylena & Ricky
‘I felt very proud to have achieved the birth we had hoped, no drugs, minimal intervention and overall a very positive, joyful and calm environment to welcome Nina into. Vince was so supportive, I felt the biggest thing from the hypnobirthing course was that he had the knowledge and tools he needed to be an active participant in the birth'. Sara and Vince

TESTIMONIALS:
'I was planning for a VBAC. It was all normal and natural delivery. I laboured mostly at home and came to hospital just 2 hrs before birth to deliver my baby boy. Hypnobirthing was amazing! Thanks Meagan’ Angira
‘I hired Meagan as my Hypnobirthing instructor and I couldn’t be happier. Meagan brought a wealth of information with her and much much more. She is a caring, intelligent and very warm person, who went way beyond, in regards to providing excellent care and a relaxed and happy environment. She helped dispel the myths associated with birth, and instilled a sense of positiveness and calmness. I have never felt so relaxed than when we practiced hypnosis for birth. My birth experience was different to what I thought, and I can say that the preparation we did with Meagan made a huge difference in remaining calm and positive throughout the day. Thank you Meagan for going beyond just being an instructor, and being such a empowering influence. Thanks again.’ Patty

When you change the way you view birthing, the way you birth will change’
