HypnoBirthing is more than hypnosis for childbirth; it is a complete birth education programme, that teaches parents-to-be all the techniques that they will require to have a more natural birth experience where they feel in control, relaxed and calm.
This website will tell you all you need to know about HypnoBirthing and HypnoBirthing Classes in East Sussex and Kent with Hastings HypnoBirthing.
About Us
My name is Clare Duke and I live in Hastings with my husband and two children.
I developed a passion for HypnoBirthing whilst pregnant with my son. I felt there had to be an alternative to the way that birth was represented in the media and by the medical profession. I was keen to have the most natural and relaxed birth possible and discovered Marie Mongans wonderful HypnoBirthing method. I used all the skills I was taught and had a truly wonderful and natural birth experience. One year later I used all the techniques to give birth to my daughter and again it was beautiful experience.
I am a fully Certified HypnoBirthing Practitioner and teach HypnoBirthing courses in East Sussex and Kent. I am a registered Practitioner with the HypnoBirthing Institute.
About Hypnobirthing
HypnoBirthing teaches us that pregnancy and birth are a natural part of life and not a medical procedure. Self hypnosis, positive thinking, relaxation, breathing techniques and visualisations are all used to have a happy pregnancy and calm birth.
The HypnoBirthing Childbirth method is as much a philosophy of birth as it is a technique for achieving a satisfying, relaxing, and stress-free method of birthing. HypnoBirthing teaches you, along with your birthing companion, the art and joy of experiencing birth in a more comfortable manner.
Marie Mongan is the founder of HypnoBirthing which began in the United States. On the 3rd January 1990 the first official HypnoBirthing baby was born to Marie's daughter and HypnoBirthing begun. HypnoBirthing has become an international movement with it being practised in over 22 countries. Many medical professionals are training in the techniques after being left in awe when they have experienced a HypnoBirthing birth first hand.
Benefits:
- Using relaxation techniques can eliminate fear which leads to tension and pain and often slows down labour
- Often shortens the length of labour
- Greatly reduces the chances of medical intervention and the administration of drugs
- Reduces the need for an episiotomy
- Allows the birth companion to be fully involved in the pregnancy, labour and birth
- Babies born using hypnobirthing are often calmer, feed better, sleep better and experience less trauma.
Group Classes
All HypnoBirthing classes are taught over 5 sessions and total 12.5 hours of tuition - this is in accordance with the HypnoBirthing Institute.
The most desirable time to start your classes is after 22 weeks.
These work well if you are available at set times during the week or weekends. I hold courses during the evening and at weekends depending on the preference of the group.
Group classes are great for those wishing to meet other parents-to-be.
Group classes are up to a maximum of 5 mothers with a birth companion.

The above course fees include a copy of Marie Mongans book: HypnoBirthing: The Breakthrough to Safer, Easier, More Comfortable Childbirth and a copy of the relaxation exercises on CD. You will also get comprehensive notes to take away at the end of each session. During and after your course you will get additional support via email and telephone.
Individual Classes
All HypnoBirthing classes are taught over 5 sessions and total 12.5 hours of tuition - this is in accordance with the HypnoBirthing Institute.
The most desirable time to start your classes is after 22 weeks.
These work well for people that need flexibility. I am available during the week and weekends so can fit around your needs (daytime and evening appointments available). These also work well for people that would prefer one-to-one tuition, for example, people who have a particular fear that they feel they need to release and would be more comfortable doing this outside of a group environment.
I would normally travel to you for individual sessions but can arrange for you to come to me if that is your preference. Please see the map opposite for the areas that I cover. The area in red shows where very reasonable travel charges will apply if you would like classes in your own home.
Cost £300
The above course fees include a copy of Marie Mongans book: HypnoBirthing: The Breakthrough to Safer, Easier, More Comfortable Childbirth and a copy of the relaxation exercises on CD. You will also get comprehensive notes to take away at the end of each session. During and after your course you will get additional support via email and telephone.
