Supportive Caregivers Training

from $150.00

Birth professionals are all united by a shared intention- to help mothers and babies experience a safe, calm, and positive birth.

Caregivers play a crucial role throughout pregnancy and birth, and Hypnobirthing Australia™ acknowledges the powerful difference that informed, compassionate support can make to a birthing experience.

This course has been thoughtfully created for birth professionals- midwives, obstetricians, doctors, and nurses- alongside childbirth educators, doulas, and pregnancy and birth professionals who want to understand the philosophy and practical tools of hypnobirthing. This knowledge allows you to better support families who choose this approach to birth.

This intensive training does not qualify participants to teach the Hypnobirthing Australia™ Program and is intended for supportive use only.

Through this specialised training, caregivers gain insight into hypnobirthing language, philosophy, and techniques that can be seamlessly integrated into your invaluable role supporting mothers and families during birth.
