What Others Are
Saying
"I took a training from Laura on Hypnobabies
and it was extremely helpful. Knowing what I know
now about Hypnobabies, I know I couldn't have
supported a Hypnobabies mom effectively without it.
Hypnobabies is very different than HypnoBirthing." ~
Laura Bikman, CD, HBCE (hypno-doula and
HypnoBirthing Practitioner)

Birth ProfessionalsAre you a nurse, doctor,
midwife, doula, or other birth professional in Utah interested in
learning how to best support Hypnobabies students? I prefer
to refer my students to providers who know the unique needs
of hypno-moms. In fact, when students sign up for my
classes, I send them a list of hypno-friendly providers.
Learning more about Hypnobabies via one or more of the
options below will get you on that list!Schedule a Free In Service
I would love the opportunity to explain
Hypnobabies and how you can best support my
Hypnobabies students. Please
contact me to set up an in service for your
midwifery or physician practice, hospital labor
and delivery unit, or birth professionals group.
Attend a Hypno-Doula Training
Do you attend births? Do you want to make
your job easier? Encourage your clients to take
Hypnobabies! As a hypno-doula myself I've
experienced how much easier my job providing
labor support becomes when moms really
know how to relax. Hypnosis is a very powerful
tool that is becoming quite popular with
today's birthing mothers. Attend a Hypno-Doula
Training so that you will have specialized
knowledge in supporting these unique clients.
Enroll by printing and mailing your payment
and the forms linked in the right margin of this
page.
Please view the Hypno-Doula Training Schedule
in the right-hand margin for upcoming dates.
Tuition includes instruction as well as a hypno-doula
notebook ($50 value). Please
contact me to let me know that you are
interested in attending a training. Lunch
will be served. Cost: $75 per doula/attendee
or only $60 when you enroll and pay three weeks in
advance. I would be thrilled to give your
business cards and brochures to my students
after you attend a Hypno-Doula Training as well
as list you on my
Hypno-Doula page! My website comes up as
the top or one of the top listings for searches
regarding hypnosis for childbirth in Utah. I do
ask for a reciprocal link if you have a website
of your own.
Hypno-Doula Trainees will:
-
Learn the power of the mind/body connection.
-
Learn what hypnosis for childbirth is and
how it works.

Learn all about the Hypnobabies Childbirth
Hypnosis Course (although I'm equipped to

materials and how they help your client
during labor.

Use this opportunity to form partnerships
with other new hypno-doulas!
Attend a 6-week Hypnobabies Class Series
I welcome observers in my Hypnobabies
classes. You will get to learn exactly what my
Hypnobabies students are taught. A hypno-doula
training is more effective for learning how best
to support Hypnobabies students. I strongly
encourage doulas who are supporting
Hypnobabies students to attend a hypno-doula
training or attend class with their
clients if no training is scheduled. Observers of a class series will
not be able to receive any of the Hypnobabies
materials. If you would like a hypno-doula
notebook you may purchase one through the
Hypnobabies Network or you will receive one if
you attend a hypno-doula training. Please
contact me to let me know that you are
interested in observing a class series. You
may attend the series as an observer for free.
If you have a client currently enrolled it would
be very helpful for you to attend their class
series so that you can familiarize yourself with
their hypno-anesthesia tools. If you cannot
attend the entire series, I'd be happy to
suggest which class(es) would be most beneficial
for you.
The six-week Hypnobabies class series meets
DONA birth doula certification requirements for
attending a childbirth education series. It is
currently the only hypnosis childbirth class
that meets those requirements.
Rules for Observing a Class
- You must be a birth professional
(midwife, nurse, doctor, or doula). If you
are still a student or in training for one
of these professions, that is ok.
- Please be on time! Classes start at 6:30
p.m. and it's best to plan on arriving by
6:20 p.m. so that you can get seated and
settled without disturbing my students.
- Brief, infrequent comments are ok as long as you are not
undermining my authority as the instructor.
If you are concerned about course content,
please speak with me privately.
- There has been a policy change regarding
observers of Hypnobabies classes and we
are no longer allowed to invite
HypnoBirthing Practitioners to observe.
This policy is due to ethical, legal, and
conflict of interest issues. While I can't
imagine that the intentions of most
HypnoBirthing Practitioners are anything but
good, it's important to me to respect
Kerry's wishes. If you have any questions
you can call Kerry at 714 952-2229.
