Feedback about Natalies' Birth Education

Natalies’ Birth Education course enabled me to have a calm pregnancy and an empowering birth experience. My husband and I both learnt a great deal about natural birthing and nurturing parenting methods.

Amy and Rob - Newcastle, NSW

Natalie taught my husband and I amazing life skills that we have applied with our parenting technique and our work.

Ben and Gem - Central Coast, NSW

The classes definitely helped me to cope…In my birth I chose some minor interventions and I felt in control and happy about my choices!

Elisa - Sydney, NSW

Natalie gave me birthing confidence and confidence as a mother. The relaxation skills I learnt – I still use today

Emma - Nelsons Bay, NSW

Q&A with Nat

How often do you run a birth course?

Nat: "Courses are run regularly. The best way to keep tabs on this is to check out What's on (if nothing is showing up call me direct)".

Where are the courses held?

Nat: "For locals to the Hunter, all courses currently offered are being held as special fundraising events for the Newcastle Birth Movement Project at Warners Bay.
If you are from other regions, states, countries, GREAT NEWS, I have now released my very own, online program where we can work together LIVE". [Read more about my exciting, new-release program, "Psyched For Birth"] https://www.hunterbirtheducationcentre.com/psyched-for-birth

How can I find out more information?

Ring me, text me and/or, email me at natalie.meade@hotmail.com

What other services do you offer?

Nat: "Although my main energies are towards delivery of high quality, life changing, birth education, my journey is rich with experience and skills and I also have rare spots in my work calendar for: Birth Planning Support, Birth Counselling, Birth Trauma Counselling, one-to-one, private Birth Courses (for families needing very personalised and tailored care) and Birth Doula Support".

What if I am sick and miss an event or a session?

Nat: "All good, I have private links/group video resources for any course material you miss".

Why is your face to face hypnobirthing so especially AFFORDABLE??

I strongly believe that the highest quality birth education should be available for all families at affordable amounts and I devote my community work energies to providing this for families of the Hunter Region.

How can I book into one of the courses?

Nat: "Easy Peasy, I use Humanitix. Follow this link to decide what dates and times suit you, and simply book and proceed to checkout. See you in your course! Natalie. Any difficulties, let me know".
