Which hypnobirthing course is best?

If you’re pregnant (or planning to be) and you’re starting to explore birth prep options, you’ve probably heard of hypnobirthing.

And at some point, you may have asked yourself (or Google):
“Which hypnobirthing course is best?”

As a certified Calm Birth School hypnobirthing teacher, I get this question a lot — and it’s such a good one. Birth is a huge moment in your life, and choosing the right course can really shape how you experience it.

So, let’s break it down.

What Is hypnobirthing, really?

First things first — hypnobirthing isn’t about swinging watches or whispering affirmations in a candlelit room (unless that’s your thing, of course!).
It’s actually a powerful approach to birth that combines knowledge, practical tools, and mindset work to help you feel calm, informed, and empowered — no matter how your birth unfolds.

It’s about:

• Understanding how your body works in labour
• Learning how to work with it, not against it
• Releasing fear and replacing it with confidence
• Feeling in control of your birth choices

So, which hypnobirthing course is best?

There are a few really solid options out there, including:

• The Positive Birth Company
• Katharine Graves (KG) Hypnobirthing
• Mindful Birth

Each has its own style, format and vibe — and they all support birthing people in powerful ways.

But the one I truly believe in — and the one I’m trained to teach — is The Calm Birth School.

Why I teach The Calm Birth School Method

The Calm Birth School is fresh, modern, and totally accessible. It’s designed for real people with real lives.

What makes it stand out?

• It’s in person or online, so you can learn at your own pace, wherever you are
• It’s inclusive, friendly, and non-judgemental — no “right” way to birth
• It’s backed by science, filled with real-life stories, and genuinely empowering
• It doesn’t feel fluffy or outdated — it feels like a conversation with someone who gets it

Whether you’re planning a home birth, hospital birth, induction or caesarean, the Calm Birth School gives you the tools to feel grounded, prepared, and calm.

Final Thoughts

There’s no one-size-fits-all when it comes to birth. The “best” hypnobirthing course is the one that feels right for you.

But if you’re looking for a supportive, flexible, and modern approach — I wholeheartedly recommend The Calm Birth School.
