About Me
Hey there, I'm Claire, and I'm on a mission to empower parents-to-be like you through the journey of pregnancy, birth, and beyond. Whether you're eagerly awaiting the arrival of your little one or navigating the early days of parenthood, I'm here to support you every step of the way.
As a mum of two young children, I've been through the ups and downs of parenthood myself. Starting out, I felt completely clueless, unsure of what to expect and how to handle it all. But over time, I've grown into a strong advocate for birth rights and informed choices, thanks to my own experiences and the tools I've picked up along the way.
My Journey into Hypnobirthing
My journey into hypnobirthing and antenatal education began after I faced the challenges of my own birth trauma and then went on to have my mind blown when I discovered the transformative power of hypnobirthing.
I was trained by Katharine Graves of KG Hypnobirthing - her book literally changed my life!! I’ve also gone on to train with many big birthy organizations such as The Mindful Breastfeeding School, Traumatic Birth Recovery College, and Developing Doulas. Additionally, I've most recently become an FEDANT accredited Antenatal and Postnatal Practitioner following my training with Our Baby Club, and this ensures that I meet the highest standards of professional practice in antenatal and postnatal care because, you know, you deserve the very best!!
Creating Through Birth and Beyond has helped me live my dream and now, I'm dedicated to helping others like you write empowering birth stories and approach parenthood with confidence.
