The Mindful Birth Group® Reviews 

Laura made me and my husband feel very relaxed and comfortable throughout the visits and was very accommodating with times and dates.
Laura was very knowledgeable, a clear communicator and made us feel like we could ask lots of questions.
Our time was individually focused and tailored to our needs which was really special. I would highly recommend Laura to friends. Thank you.

Laura was a wonderful teacher, we learnt so much and she really empowered us to make and uphold our decisions throughout our birth experience even though it didn't go completely to plan. I feel like she gave us the tools and information to be able to really advocate for ourselves and also to remain calm throughout. I'd highly recommend the mindful birth group and Laura to anyone.

My partner and I attended a parenting workshop class with Hannah before our son was born. I can confidently say it was the best resource we found to help us prepare for parenting! Hannah met us 1-to-1, provided incredibly useful expertise and advice and I came away from the workshop feeling ready to start our parenting journey! Hannah not only gave us great advice, she was encouraging and supportive and made us feel truly listened to and understood. I couldn't recommend the workshop enough and I am so glad we had the opportunity to do this. I felt like we made an immediate connection with Hannah and again, it was definitely the best thing we did to prepare for parenting. 100% recommend!

Laura is simply amazing. Her class taught me so much and made me feel confident going into my second birthing experience. I never felt pressured or influenced to have a certain type of birth. Instead the focus was on mindfulness and being informed. She’s an excellent teacher and listener. I highly recommend the course and Laura.

My partner and I booked a private class with CEO Emiliana, as the group classes didn't work for our schedule. She was really responsive, and designed a class that was a great fit for our needs as first-time parents dealing with a high risk pregnancy. I'm feeling much more prepared for parenthood now! Very highly recommended.

What can I say about my experience with Rachel; after struggling with anxiety for a long time when I found out I was pregnant I knew I needed a tool to be able to enjoy my pregnancy. I found Rachel online and as soon as I emailed her I felt at ease and that she would be able to support me and my husband. Due to a couple of complications I had a scheduled c-section at 37 weeks. Instead of being anxious and nervous, I practiced my meditation and positive affirmations on a daily basis and can honestly say I enjoyed the whole experience. This time last year I would freak out at the thought of an injection or blood test. Now I sit here 3 days after my surgery with my little girl and husband feeling very happy about the whole experience to bring her into the world. Thank you Rachel! x

There aren’t enough kind and wonderful words in the universe to describe our experience with Sally!
Me and my other half took the group Hypnobirthing course over 4 Friday nights and the amount of knowledge we came away with was unbelievable!
I ended up electing for an abdominal birth and I have never felt so at ease with making that decision.
We had the most relaxed and controlled birth and it was everything we ever wanted it to be and we felt so confident with our decision making.
We honestly can’t recommend taking this course with Sally enough, like I said before- she’s simply the best!
Thankyou for everything

I can’t say enough positive things about Sally, she’s a credit to the profession and one of the nicest, most knowledgeable ladies I’ve ever met!

We took Sallys course on a private basis so she came to our house and I’m so glad we did. She talked us through so much information about my pregnancy and what to expect at the birth and I felt so much more prepared for the coming months, most importantly I felt informed and empower to make the right choices for me and my baby.
Sallys support didn’t stop at the course and she was always on hand to answer my questions and concerns, as a nervous first time mum there were quite a few of those!

I wouldn’t hesitate to reccomended Sally to anyone, if you are thinking of booking please do you won’t regret it!

We did the abdominal birth course with Natalie and it was absolutely amazing. We were both super in the dark about what to expect and how to prepare and were very nervous. Natalie taught us relaxation techniques, gave us detailed information about the procedure and helped us understand our choices. I never thought I would say this but I feel EXCITED about abdominal birth and what is to come afterwards. She also gave great tips on feeding and recovery and sleep. Thank you so much Natalie you are incredible!!!

Siobhan’s mindful birthing course in Hastings was a really great comprehensive look at what happens at birth and all of the questions around it. Feeling like we had limited understanding of the process and our options we came away being able to make some solid choices and feel confident in our birth plan, but more than that understand what to expect without being overwhelmed. The information is digestible and the environment is calm and welcoming.

She was incredibly thoughtful, considering what circumstance might apply to each individual in the class, patient with our questions and really listened to what we had to say.

She goes above and beyond, considering things like what snacks you might need(!) and reading recommendations for different people.

She’s communicative and has helpfully continued to remind us about pointers and techniques post the classes ending too.

Would totally recommend to anyone about to approach birth in all its forms, including birth partners.

We are so happy we chose this course. Sally is amazing - she has so much knowledge and experience. We felt totally at ease with Sally from the first time we met her. The course gave us a lot of confidence in preparing for the birth of our baby girl. We felt empowered and informed to make our own choices regarding the birth. It was a very positive experience. Thank you Sally for everything - you are the best!

Me and my wife have been on a long fertility journey. And are currently intended parents through surrogacy.
We had this course with Rhonda and it very good. It wouldn't have been something I would have thought of before. She is clearly very experienced and empowered us. She was very approachable and happy to answer all our questions and this has helped us going forward. The techniques taught are really good and we all learned something from this. I would recommend this service to any expecting parents

We took an antenatal+hypnobirthing course with Rachel Cunliffe in Morden, and it was truly the best decision we made with regards to my pregnancy. Rachel was kind, warm, reassuring, discerning, funny and patient, always making room for endless questions and providing emotional and practical support and resources when things got tricky, both in person and online. The Mindful Birth Group pregnancy hub also has amazing resources and Rachel was superb at signposting them to us. My birth partner and I both feel so empowered after having worked with her, and since getting to know her, we have felt calmer and happier about my upcoming birth. Rachel is incredibly knowledgeable and what I appreciate most about her is how generous she is with her attention. She makes the time and effort to get to know you as a future parent and to listen to your needs, and shares her wisdom without an agenda—the best kind of teacher. I would really recommend that birthing folks sign up to a class with her! She will transform your relationship to birth as an experience, and you will emerge confident and ready. X

Having recently finished our course with Emma from Power and Peace Birthing I couldn’t recommend this enough to expectant parents. Emma was excellent in explaining all of the different tools and techniques we can use throughout the different stages of labour and it’s really put my mind at ease so I now feel prepared and very excited for the time ahead. I now feel much more confident as the birthing partner and will benefit hugely when using what I’ve learnt. 10/10

We have just finished a brilliant course with Emma of Power & Peace Birthing. I finished the course feeling really empowered ahead of the upcoming birth and with some super practical ways for myself and my partner to make it the best experience for us and our baby. I would 100% recommend Emma and the course to any pregnant people out there. You learn a lot in a very supportive environment, helping to dispel any myths and equip yourself with information to make the right decisions for you & your baby. I now feel calm and confident heading into the birth experience, having started the course feeling fearful and with lots of questions. Massive thanks to Emma for the wonderful course & support 😊

My husband and I recently attended a four week course with the lovely and extremely knowledgeable Rhonda! I had read numerous books on hypnobirthing but nothing quite beats a face to face course with an expert. Rhonda created a calm and relaxed atmosphere which made us feel instantly welcomed and at ease.

They say “knowledge is power” and how true that is! Through our course, we learnt about the physiology of birth, how to adjust our language to become positive about birth, we learnt some relaxation techniques, as well as how to create a calm environment for birth. Rhonda comes with a wealth of knowledge and experience, and her tips for birth were extremely valuable. We can’t thank Rhonda enough for giving us the knowledge to go into birth confidently. Thank you!

I’ve recently completed a mindful birth course with the wonderful Emma from Power and Peace Birthing and let me just tell you that there won’t be a better use of your time, efforts or finances than to join this course.

I came into pregnancy very ignorant about how my body was going to birth this baby, fairly scared, unprepared and certain I wanted to opt for an elective c-section (there is nothing wrong with the last one and I’ve learnt that it can be a wonderfully positive experience, but for me that initial decision was purely driven by fear).

The course was so gentle and powerful, giving my husband and I endless tools and knowledge to head into birth in the best mindset possible.

Emma has been an invaluable source of support beyond the hours of the course, answering questions and lending us great resources. She truly does love and believe in the power of a mindful birth and you can tell!

I have a totally new mindset around birth and now believe so much more in my body and the power of my mind to create peace and aid birth in a natural way.

If you or your partner are pregnant, please give yourself the gift of knowledge and empowerment to have a birth that will make you feel in control and fully prepared for all eventualities.

Thank you so much Emma!

Loved our course with Jance. Feel way more confident in our birth options and how we go about making decisions if/when we get any curveballs. Jance got through so much in our classes and I love that she’s only a message away if anything comes up we’re unsure of. Thank you! Megs and Rich

I’m already missing our evening sessions of reassurance. As a first time mum, the atmosphere was perfect - calm, relaxed and open (which let’s face it, when you’re talking about the intricate details of birth, is needed!) My anxieties were completely left at the door thanks to Siobhan, I felt like no question was a stupid question and the dynamic was so lovely between the group - despite all looking to approach the birth in different ways.

The course itself covered the practical ins and outs, but balanced perfectly with taking a more hypnobirthing approach to it all. It also really helps to swap the leaflets with stuff you’ll actually enjoy reading - good instas to follow and books to borrow. Thank you Siobhan.

This was a wonderful experience. The course was educational, well structured and suitably personalised. The facilitator Siobhan Rae was knowledgeable, passionate, FUN, supportive and completely non-judgemental. Very empowering, would recommend.
