Practice Name: Hypnobirthing Brisbane
Location of Service: Gordon Park (Brisbane)
Hello and welcome!
I am Caitlin, a childbirth educator, a registered nurse and a mother.
My passion is helping mothers.
Whether they are trying to conceive, pregnant, coping with a newborn or wrangling a toddler, I love hearing their stories, providing advice when I can or at least a shoulder to lean on. Since giving birth, I have provided casual encouragement to other women through my mommy blog http://www.motherdownunder.com.
I am thrilled to be a hypnobirthing practitioner and to be able to positively support women throughout their pregnancy, birth and beyond.
As a nurse, I have come to hypnobirthing from a scientific background, and I believe that empirically, the method makes so much sense. Our bodies are complex, are able to perform extraordinary feats and, just as they are capable of growing a perfect baby without our conscious input, they are also capable of birthing that perfect baby without much conscious effort.
After experiencing a beautiful hypnobirth, I felt so empowered and positive.
I strongly believe that, if your pregnancy and birth are the positive events that you hope they will be, you will enter motherhood feeling confident and better able to cope.
I found that hypnobirthing enabled me to have a relaxed pregnancy, a natural birth and demonstrated that trusting my mothering instincts led to ideal outcomes for me and my baby.
It is truly my wish that every woman has the opportunity to experience the pregnancy and birth that she desires.

Location of Service: Manly (QLD)
I would like to embark on this journey with you.
To provide a safe space to replace any fears of birth with confidence, not just for you, but for your birth partner too.
Help you to achieve your hopes and dreams for your birth, regardless of what course your labour may take.
Offering ongoing support after the course and if you have any residual fears, which I doubt you will, I will gladly come to your home and do a one on one fear release with you and/or your birthing partner.
After having two hypno bubs myself and a background in hypnotherapy, I have been constantly drawn back to hypnobirthing over the last five years. It is something I am deeply passionate about and I am so excited to be part of this birthing evolution. Women need to hear amazing birth stories when pregnant, not the war stories that so many women seem to have.
We need to spread the word that birth is a beautiful and powerful experience, which can be embraced wholeheartedly.
You will become an advocate for Hypnobirthing for years to come. You will be able to pass on the skills you have learnt to friends and family, and even one day, to your own children.
Offering small group classes and private classes in your own home if preferred. Contact me today to discuss payment plans and course options.
