Bio
My name is Jessica. I am a Registered Midwife, wife and Mum to two very energetic boys! Working as a midwife, I had heard about the effectiveness of hypnobirthing, so I completed the ‘Positive Birth Program’ during my first pregnancy and loved it! I used it for both of my births and had 2 very different but very empowering, wonderful, positive experiences.
As a midwife with almost 10 years’ experience, I have seen some very beautiful births but I have also seen many women and their partners struggle through birth, unprepared for labour and the choices they need to make along the way. I want to help you and your support person to feel prepared and confident for your labour and birth.
I believe birth is one of the most important events in a woman’s life. It is your transition to motherhood. The day you meet your baby for the first time. Every mother deserves to be able look back on this day with love and joy.
I am thrilled to be teaching the ‘Positive Birth Program’ to inform, prepare and empower women to birth calmly and confidently, trusting their body to do what it was designed to do.

Jess ran an amazing course; was so helpful and informative especially for myself as a first time mom.
During the birth and in making decisions with my obstetrician / midwives before, I was able to articulate what kind of birth I wanted and make informed decisions.
It was particularly helpful for my husband as well to understand what to expect , and gave him lots of tools to support me through my birth – he felt equally apart of the birth as I was because he had knowledge about what was going on and how to support.
Thanks so much Jess.
I found the positive birth program through Breathe Life an invaluable part of preparing for my birth. The tools and techniques I learnt helped me feel empowered to make decisions about my birth, remain positive when plans changed and allowed me to calming birth my baby. Jess was a wonderful teacher, always approachable with a positive disposition and years of midwifery experience. I initially did the course online due to covid and working full time but then decided to do it in person for our second baby. The in-person course felt like I had my own birthing coach! It was so much more personal and I got to meet other mums on the same journey. Thank you Jess for imparting your knowledge! We are looking forward to meeting our baby with excitement and anticipation.
Jess was an absolute pleasure to work with as a hypnobirth practitioner. Her experience as a midwife and mother provided a unique and informative perspective on the Positive Birth Program while providing an excellent service.
Not only myself but my husband left our sessions with her feeling empower and encouraged about the experience of birth and are confident in using the skills taught in the course to have our own positive birth.
