The Mindful Birth Group® Reviews 

The course was incredibly informative & really helped us prepare for the birth.
Emiliana was also fantastic - knowledgeable, helpful & caring.

I affiliated to The Mindful Birth Group in September 2021. I had trained in hypnobirthing a number of years ago but as a practicing midwife had tweaked some of that knowledge and learning to apply to all births in an attempt to offer a more bespoke service. I had been looking for a way to make my sessions more accessible as I often met parents who despite having completed a hypnobirth course did not feel prepared when some of their plans changed either in pregnancy, birth or in their early parenting. I also supported parents choosing/or requiring an abdominal birth for the birth of their baby and they felt birth preparation courses were not open to them. Emiliana was incredibly generous with her time and support and I knew instantly I had found what I had been searching for. As a TMBG teacher I joined a group of other teachers and as a team their kindness, support, wisdom, commitment, and experience is phenomenal. They may be small in numbers but they have the biggest hearts. The curriculum is a joy to teach and all course materials are current and user friendly. Emiliana and TMBG are a proactive, inclusive group and are changing the landscape of antenatal education, birth preparation and early parenting for the better. I'm thrilled to be part of such a fantastic team and am excited for what the future holds :)

I was satisfied with the course, it gave me extra peace of mind in the knowledge and support before my delivery date.

I absolutely loved this course! I used it while preparing for the birth of my daughter in May 2016 and then listened to it while pregnant with my son in 2019. They put so much love and care into it so I’m here reviewing it now in 2022 because more women need to know them and get the loving support we all deserve during pregnancy and beyond!

I'm not sure what life will be like once Ive had my baby and no longer have a reason to listen to the Mindful Birth meditations and affirmations. It's become part of life over the last few years, firstly to keep me sane during a harsh IVF process and then once pregnant because its the only company of this type that seemed to cater for abdominal birth plans as much as physiological birth plans. I'm booked in for my birth next Monday and feel mentally prepared knowing that I've all the Mindful Birth tools to my disposal. I've even asked if the surgeon can play the affirmations in theatre. My daughter will be as used to Emiliana's comforting voice as as she is mine and my husbands after all these months of relaxation audios 🤣. Thanks so much to all at Mindful Birth.

As first time parents it was so comforting to have advice and be educated on pregnancy, the birthing process and post-partum, what to expect & dealing with the unexpected. Thank you for comforting us, preparing us & allowing us to ask as many questions as we needed too without feeling silly x

We had the most fantastic experience with Emiliana. Emiliana’s calm and gentle way of educating us all about the birth process, coping techniques and our various options along the way meant that we felt confident and prepared. We were lucky to have two magical calm births and I put that all down to the prep with Emiliana. Thank you!

Helpful, supportive and exactly what we needed. Recommended!

As a first-time expecting mother, I felt incredibly anxious of the unknown.
I found Emiliana and The Mindful Birthing Group via Instagram and instantly felt relieved knowing that there was support and information out there to help navigate pregnancy, labour, and the 4th trimester.
Personal experiences passed on first hand, the course is personable, caring and incredibly informative.
When the time came, the feeling of the ‘unknown’ was completely gone. I felt impowered and confident for what’s to come.
I highly recommend this course and have recommended friends since who all had the same impact from the course that I did.

Em is amazing! Full of so much knowledge to set you up ready for labour. So calm, reassuring and helpful with any questions you may have leading up to and after having your baby. I would highly recommend!

I couldn't recommend Emiliana highly enough - we wanted a refresher course as it had been a few years since we had done a course for our first child. Emiliana was brilliant, gave such a brilliant course, and is such a lovely person. I believe 100% that this course had such a positive impact on my child's birth :)

Emiliana was a lovely, caring and very helpful support for us during and after my pregnancy. We took a hypnobirthing course with her while I was pregnant which was informative and taught us very useful techniques for the birth.

I purchased the abdominal online birthing course as the delivery of my baby changed last minute. Excellent course to help in a short amount of time I had. I always have trouble sleeping and with the thought of a C section on my mind it was even harder. Listening to the course each evening before bed really calmed my nerves and also sent me to sleep!

While waiting for, and during my section, the breathing techniques really helped me. I know how much I panic and I felt totally at ease just focusing on what I needed to do.

Excellent course. Excellent work by the mindful birth group!

Thank you so much

I did an abdominal one to one course with Emiliana online in preparation for my 2nd baby’s arrival in 2021. I decided quite early on in my 2nd pregnancy that I wanted to approach this birth differently to my first. I felt for my 1st baby’s birth (also an abdominal birth) I was very unprepared mentally for what was to come and I wasn’t able to enjoy the experience. I did some research on hypnobirthing and came across the mindful birth group and decided to do the classes with Emiliana. It was the best decision I made for myself and my baby the classes were so informative I learnt so much and felt really listened to. I didn’t think it was possible to actually feel calm and excited for my baby’s birth but when that day came I did and that’s all thanks to the help and support I received from Emiliana.

Emiliana was a massive support, both leading up to and following the birth of my daughter last year. She listened to my needs/ concerns and recommended the most suitable course for me, and she even took the time to check in on me once baby had arrived. The course empowered me with knowledge ahead of my planned abdominal birth and gave me practical tools which I used leading up to and on the day of my daughter’s birth. It made a huge difference to my experience and I’ll be forever grateful.

Brilliant session, answered all my questions and I left feeling calm and informed. I am still in touch with the group seven months later x

We can never thank Em and TMBG enough for helping us in so many ways to have 2 of the most incredible home births. The new course is even better than the original.

I couldn’t have got through my elective abdominal birth without using the techniques taught to me by Emiliana at The Mindful Birth Group. My anxiety after numerous miscarriages was immense, but after our sessions I felt calmer and my birth experience was really positive because of this. Thank you!
