"...While starting out very skeptical about the course and the birthing experience in general, my partner became very supportive and understanding by the end of the course. HypnoBirthing changed our relationship and our lives forever adding so much deep meaning and love for each other and for our baby.”
"The instructor, was such a pleasure to be around. She made my husband and I believe in ourselves from the very first class and reinforced that belief during each session...."
Classes are designed to bring together the dynamics of Hypnobirthing with practical advice specific to the birthing environment local to the DC Metro area… focusing on the birthing family as the center of the mental and physical experience.
