midivydale Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 A group of us from spring babies 2012 used Kristin Haywood. She had very reasonable prices and was lovely.

sarahf Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Another recommendation for Kristin Haywood. She's wonderful and I attribute my two lovely births to her classes. Good luck!

Surf Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Hi, I highly recommend Hollie Stroud http://www.londonhypnobirthing.co.uk/. I gave birth early June after going on a course with Hollie and can tell you it works;) Hollie lives in East Dulwich and is lovely. I really looked forward to each of the sessions we had booked. The course was enjoyable for both me and my husband and we have made friends with the few other psrticipating couples as a result.

JeneferOdell Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 I second that! Definitely go to Hollie at London Hypnobirthing! Hypnobirthing is incredible and Hollie's course is wonderful. Hypnobirthing helped me through the pregnancy, our beautiful home birth and beyond. It also connected us as a couple and made my husband feel 100% involved. Do it do it do it.

sillywoman Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 Hollie is a local young Mum who runs fab hypnobirthing classes. I third those recommendations. If you do a search on this forum her details will come up. In fact here ya go . .. http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?25,1127475,1127475#msg-1127475You know me - I like to keep it local if I can ;) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/33697-hypnobirthing/#findComment-657836 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginsterpie Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 I agree... Hollie Stroud was great. And it seemed to work for us. First baby born at home with absolutely no pain relief. Highly reccomended Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/33697-hypnobirthing/#findComment-658244 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redbus66 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I did a course with Judith Flood at Guys hospital (she has the benefit of midwife experience) and I can really recommend her. I remained at home for 36 hours (had to go to hospital as there were a few complications) but had vontouse delivery with no pain reliefhttp://www.hypnobirthing-london.co.uk/www.hypnobirthing-london.co.uk/Welcome.html Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/33697-hypnobirthing/#findComment-658354 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginster Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Another recommendation for Hollie - she's lovely and the course is good and spread over a decent amount of sessions. Birth is imminent so I am hoping what we have learnt will soon be put into practice! We feel much more confident and looking forward to the birth and I think it really helps the partners to feel more involved and that they can really help out and make a difference.

bushillp Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I'd add to the praise for Hollie Stroud. I'm due at the end of this month & have been taking hypnobirthing classes with her for the last few weeks. I've relaxed so much about the idea of childbirth, I'm even looking forward to it now (I really wasn't before!). The relaxation scripts have also really improved my sleep. Hollie has provided a warm, calm and positive environment to learn more about the whole thing.

Buffnutter Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 And another recommendation for Hollie Stroud. We had a two day private course with Hollie last month and the skills we learned were invaluable for the birth of our baby a couple of weeks ago. I am certain that the birth was much easier than it would otherwise have been as we were able to be far more relaxed and worked together as a team. Hollie was hugely supportive and I couldnt recommend her more highly!

Jamie_T Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I would echo everything that's been said about Hollie at London Hypnobirthing. Hollie has helped us feel calm, relaxed and confident about the imminent arrival of our baby. Her style and approach is professional and incredibly supportive. She has been at the end of the phone/email with answers to any questions I've had outside of the classes. I can't wait to put all my practice into action during labour and birth, and am 100% confident that everything Hollie has taught us is going to make a huge difference.

Ellianna Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Hi, I also recommend Hollie at London Hypnobirthing. Her course was great, really helped us learn how to relax deeply and taught us the skills we hope to use at the birth. I feel so much more confident now about planning the kind of birth we want and know that whatever happens we will know a way to keep calm and relaxed. Hollie is also lovely and very supportive. I can't recommend her highly enough. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/33697-hypnobirthing/#findComment-660783 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designerjooles Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Ditto for Hollie Stroud. I am a personal friend of hers and despite not having a hynobirth myself (I wish i had met her prior to my sons birth!) she is a wonderfully calm, personable and deep thinking person. She genuinely cares and talks very fondly of her "couples" that she tutors - annonymously of course :) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/33697-hypnobirthing/#findComment-661004 Share on other sites More sharing options...

reren Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 Just a quick update - I found a lovely practioner called Suzy and have just finished a 4 part one-to-one class which I really enjoyed. Haven't actually had the birth yet - so can't report on its success - but just doing the course has been a great experience and I can't recommend Suzy enough.

reren Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 Have to say I'd really strongly recommend doing a course - I listened to the Marie Mongan CD's first time round, but really didn't know how to make best use of them and found them almost useless during labour. I've found that doing a course has made a world of difference to my understanding of what to do on the big day.

Suzyrocker Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Hi All,Thank you for the lovely recommendation Reren, I'm really glad you enjoyed the course. I just wanted to update the thread to say that there are now only 3 spaces remaining on my group course at the Telegraph Hill Centre, starting on October 21st and I will also be running 1 private class during this period. Should anyone require any further information please feel free to email me on suzy@limitlessyou.co.uk or check out my website on www.limitlessyou.co.ukHappy pregnancies!Suzy Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/33697-hypnobirthing/#findComment-681423 Share on other sites More sharing options...
