I'm so pleased you've found me!
I'm Emma, Award winning Hypnobirthing teacher, founder of Blooming Births and a mother of two.
I know you're probably feeling really nervous and apprehensive about giving birth - believe me, I totally get it.
I've been exactly where you are now and I was really worried about what labour might feel like, how I would cope with the pain (yes I cry when I stub my toe..!) and ultimately how I would deal with the unknown.
But let me tell you, discovering Hypnobirthing was the single biggest factor in achieving my empowering second birth.
The experience of birthing my son was so powerful, I knew I had to spread the word about Hypnobirthing and immediately embarked on my teacher training.
Over the last 3 years, I've supported over 200 women just like you to feel confident and ready for birth.
Far from being 'hippy dippy', Hypnobirthing is an incredibly powerful toolkit, supporting you to totally transform your mindset, learn how to stay calm and giving you all of the knowledge you need to have an empowering birth on your terms.
On a course with me, I'll show you exactly how to work with your body rather than against it, how to finally rid yourself of fear and how to have a positive experience however birth happens.


Melissa's Positive Birth Story
"Emma's course was so informative and empowering, the continued support we’ve received from her both during pregnancy and postpartum has been truly invaluable.
Sam was wonderful, using techniques learnt in hypnobirthing, from helping with my breathing to stroking my head and back, holding my hands and being so present and loving.
The whole experience was a really positive one …and we are of course completely besotted with our son!"
