Ideal for parents desiring a natural birth, Hypnobabies uses visualization, relaxation and affirmations to prepare you for a POSITIVE birth experience, as well as real, medical-grade hypno-anesthesia. Using "Eyes Open Childbirth Hypnosis", Moms easily remain in hypnosis while walking, talking, & changing positions; being as mobile as they choose. Enjoy your babies' birth!

Introducing a new baby into the world is so amazing and exciting! Each parent brings their own unique level of knowledge and experience to this new chapter of their lives. Whether you are planning a birth at home or in hospital, vaginally or by caesarean, medicated or un-medicated, Samara Birth Services offers prenatal education for your specific needs.

 

Our facilitators are experienced Registered Nurses who are also certified childbirth educators. We provide comprehensive prenatal classes that take place in a comfortable, relaxed environment, where learning can be fun and unhurried. The information discussed in our classes is based on current research in maternal health and obstetrics. We focus on birth as a normal process; however, we also discuss when things do not go according to plan and how to make informed decisions along the way. Lastly, we spend a considerable amount of time discussing what happens after you have the baby and adjusting to your baby's needs as well as your new needs as this will be a huge life change for you. For a complete list of topics discussed in our classes please see our 
What's in a class? page.

 

We offer private, in home classes for those wanting a more personalized class or for those on bed rest and we offer small group (3-4 couples) classes over a Saturday and Sunday.
