Calmbirth® has a very different focus to many of the hospital classes.

• During the classes we focus on you, your baby, your body, your mind (including the sub conscious) and your partner.
• Hospital classes tend to focus on the stages of labour and educating women on the procedures that you may or may not need.
• Calmbirth® develops skills and works towards creating a deeply relaxed physiological response within the woman’s body, essential for labour, birth and beyond.
• Hospital classes provide information and knowledge.
• Calmbirth® creates confidence and excitement around birth, that comes from experiences and knowledge gained from the class.
• Hospital classes can sometimes create more fear or anxieties around giving birth.
• Both have their place in the preparation for having a baby.
