Why 1:1 Support?
Pregnancy comes with excitement… and sometimes anxiety, overwhelm or “I just need someone to explain this properly.”
If you prefer:
-
privacy over a group
-
personalised guidance
-
flexible dates around work/childcare
-
calm support at your own pace
…then 1:1 sessions can be exactly what you need.
I offer two options: a full private antenatal course or a gentle hypnobirthing session.
​
Both are warm, relaxed, practical and completely tailored to you.
“The 1:1 Zoom session with Joy felt like chatting with a friend who truly understood my worries. She explained everything in simple terms and helped me create a birth plan I feel confident about.”
Sarah - 1:1 Client
Option 1: Online 1:1 Antenatal Course

​
Perfect if you:
-
prefer privacy instead of a group
-
have specific circumstances (IVF, trauma, twins, VBAC, anxiety)
-
need adaptable dates
-
want space to ask questions without feeling exposed
-
want your partner to feel genuinely involved

“A swift labour, mostly at home with your hypnobirthing playlist… arrived at hospital fully dilated and whisked straight to delivery. Less than two hours from parking the car to hey presto.”
