Amy is a certified Hypnobirthing AustraliaTM practitioner and is so proud to deliver the Hypnobirthing AustraliaTM Positive Birth program and now the Positive Caesarean Program!
What is the Hypnobirthing AustraliaTM Positive Birth Program all about?
How can Hypnobirthing help me?
The Hypnobirthing AustraliaTM Positive Birth Program empowers you with evidence-based information and tools for labour and birth to help you confidently and calmly work with your body and baby for a positive birth experience. The Positive Birth Program will help you feel empowered and prepared for whatever turn your birthing may take.
This comprehensive program covers four main areas to help you feel fully informed and prepared for your birthing day. This program goes beyond what is traditionally covered in most hospital antenatal classes which are more likely focussed on any interventions you may be offered and the hospital’s processes and policies for your admission and birthing. This program also goes beyond just teaching relaxation or breathing techniques for labour; although these are fabulous tools for your birthing toolkit! This program will teach you about four main areas: Mindset, Knowledge, Tools, and Preparation.
If you know you are having a Caeserean Birth then we recommend the Hypnobirthing AustraliaTM Positive Caesarean Program. You and your birthing partner will learn about mindset, learn self-hypnosis and other tools for feeling relaxed and calm for a Caesarean procedure, closing hormonal gaps to optimise outcomes for mums and bubs, releasing fears, resources for communication with care providers, plus much more. This course is currently offered privately for each couple. Email us at admin@wiseperinatalservices.com.au for more information.

Mindset
We have understood for many years that the mind-body connection can play a critical role in health and mental health. For example, the placebo effect- which has been used to great advantage in clinical research conditions- indicates that what we believe and expect and can have physiological response. Think about that for a second….What you think can have a direct impact on your biology! The Positive Birth Program helps you understand how both positive and negative thoughts and beliefs might impact your experience and progress of labour and gives you the knowledge and tools to develop a positive mindset that can help you work with your body and baby to confidently approach your labour and birth.
Knowledge
The Positive Birth Program provides evidence-based birth education to help you be informed and confident in working with your caregivers in preparation for, and during, your labour and birth. The Positive Birth Program recognises the benefits of undisturbed birth and will provide education on key physiological and hormonal processes that optimise outcomes for mothers and babies during birth. However, the Positive Birth Program also provides evidence-based information on potential interventions that may be necessary during birth for the safety of mother and baby. Having this knowledge will assist birthing mothers and partners to feel empowered to make informed choices and confidently and calmly approach whatever turn their birthing may take.
Tools
The Positive Birth Program provides you with a comprehensive toolkit for a calm and empowered birth. These tools focus on working with your body and mind, setting up your environment and working as a team with your birth partner and caregivers to feel optimally supported throughout labour and birth. You will learn self-hypnosis for a calm and confident birth, breathing and relaxation techniques to work with your body and baby, visualisations, affirmations, acupressure, soft touch massage, music, scent, and lighting to optimise hormonal and physiological processes for labour and birth.
Preparation
Lastly, the Positive Birth Program provides you with knowledge, tools and strategies to optimise your, and your birthing partner’s, preparation for birth. This includes practicing self-hypnosis through the provision of MP3 tracks and scripts for your birthing partner, sample birth preferences to discuss with caregivers leading up to labour, how to plan for practical considerations for labour (when to go to hospital, birth rehearsals), how to prepare for special circumstances (such as interventions or caesarean birth), what to expect in the third stage of labour and golden hour after birth such as cord clamping and placenta delivery, skin to skin and bonding time.
The Positive Birth Program is the best preparation you can have to make your birth an empowered and positive experience, no matter what turn your birthing may take. We have group or private sessions available with flexible options – face to face, online, weeknights or weekends.
