"It makes sense. I was worried that it might just be some theory with no particular basis. It's logical. It's obvious really."
Iain, a first time dad. 2006
Mindful Mamma Hypnobirthing Classes
"I will no longer teach hypnobirthing when society regards birth as exciting and joyous, not painful and dangerous, when mothers go into birth fear free and fathers go into birth knowing what to do. Until then, I help parents prepare themselves mentally for birth. I provide hypnobirthing".
Mia Scotland, Mindful Mamma® co-founder and hypnobirthing practitioner, birth doula, clinical psychologist, and mother of three boys.
Classes are held on Saturdays, in Leicester or Derby.
One to one sessions also available, to suit you.
NEW! Mid-week classes, two sessions of three hours each. 25% reduction on this option. Book Online Now!
What the course involves:
Other antenatal classes tell you that relaxing during your birth is important. We don't just tell you this, we show you what to do about it. This popular one day positive birth class teaches you about how your mind affects your body during labour, and how to harness your mind to help your body relax during labour and birth. We teach you hypnobirthing and mindfulness techniques. We show you why some women's labours stall or slow, and why many births end up with intervention. We show you why your fear and anxiety can actually impact on your baby and type of birth you have. If you want to be in control, and if your partner wants to understand their role during the birth and how they can support you – then this is the antenatal class for you.

Why Mindful Mamma?
This one day workshop gives you the tools to prepare for your birth, your way. Tried and tested for over four years, and across the country by qualified professionals, this workshop gets consistently outstanding feedback from mothers, fathers, and midwives alike. If babies could talk, I think they would like it too. We keep the techniques simple, effective, and manageable. We make sure the birthing partner is fully included. We understand the subtle but overwhelming effect of your mindset on birth outcome, so we prioritise that over teaching what might go wrong. We are evidence based, so we base what we teach on supporting evidence , unlike many other antenatal classes.
Why Mia Scotland?
Mia has been teaching hypnobirthing for over 8 years, and has taught over 400 couples. She teaches midwives on a regular basis all over the country. She is an "expert contributor" to Pregnany and Birth magazine, and Mother and Baby magazine. She is a birth doula, and has been to over 25 births. She is a psychologist, so she understands how important fear release and mindset is to good birthing. As a psychologist, she is by definition professional, as well as being flexible and able to adapt to individual and class needs.
