“I felt in control during the entire labour and birth. My partner and I enjoyed the birth process so much, and attribute this to our hypnobirthing preparation. It was a wonderful experience, and beautiful birth. I’m so happy we invested in and committed to the hypnobirthing course and philosophy. Thank you Melissa for teaching us!” Hannah and Ben
