" Birth is not only about making babies
it's about making mothers - strong competent capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength."
Barbara Katz Rothman
​
"Hypnobirthing not only enabled me to go through the majority of labour with little pain relief, just the use of breathing and relaxation techniques, it had also given Matt so much confidence knowing more about the labour and the ways in which he can help me through it." Mummy to baby Rufus.

" The course helped my husband to be really supportive and practical during my birth. It gave me so much confidence to ask more questions of the midwives and doctors and listen to my own instincts. It really changed my experience of birth and supported me to stay at home way into my labour. Aimee is such a warm and knowledgeable person, who makes you feel really comfortable. Aimee prepared a beautiful hypnobirthing pack for us and shared some really valuable resources. I would highly recommend karma babies! Thank you Aimee!"
