The HypnoBirthing Difference

  • Childbirth Education

    An empowered birth starts with education. This 5-week series has been thoughtfully designed to answer your questions in an honest, positive framework. The live-streamed classes ensures your questions will be answered so you can approach your birth with calm and confidence.

  • Birthing Possibilities

    Calm. Grounded. Empowering. Each week, you’ll be guided through meditations, breathing exercises, fear releases and self-hypnosis techniques so you can actually look forward to your birth. Partners also love this course because they learn concrete skills to support the experience.

  • Flexibility

    5 weekly classes, 2.5 hours each, all from the comfort of your home. We offer both weekend and weekday offerings so you’ll find something to fit your schedule. So pull up your comfiest chair, and enjoy a new depth of relaxation and calm.

  • Skills to Last a Lifetime

    HypnoBirthing mamas know the power of this approach for ensuring a positive birth experience. The icing on the cake? These skills don’t expire. You can use these relaxation techniques for years to come, well beyond birth. So whether you’re in the dentist’s chair or on the waxing table, these skills come in handy.

What are parents saying?

  • “If you are considering Hypnobirthing, we highly recommend Sterling! She is absolutely amazing! She has a wealth of knowledge around birthing, both professionally and personally. She answered all of our questions and customized our sessions to make them feel individualized to us. Using the hypnobirthing strategies she taught, I was able to have a smooth and natural birth as planned. The strategies allowed me to breath through contractions. The guided meditation helped as I moved into active labor. Honestly, I could not have done it without these tools and resources! Thank you Sterling support & guidance throughout the process.”

  • “The entire birthing unit was in awe of my wife as she labored. They’d never seen such a gentle yet powerful birth in their decades of combined experience.”

  • “After a difficult and chaotic first labor, I took Sterling’s virtual hypnobirthing class to help reduce my anxiety going into my second birth, and it was nothing short of magical. I had a lot of anxiety around birth, but this class completely eliminated my fear, helped me feel calm, prepared, and in control, and resulted in a much easier and more peaceful labor.

    My second birth was a completely different experience, and I credit so much of that to Sterling’s approach. She never pressured me to do things a certain way, but instead empowered me to make my own informed decisions. I can’t recommend Sterling enough!”

  • “If HB can do one thing for you as a man, it is teaching you how to support your better half. How to encourage her. How to reassure her. How to ready her body language and to nurture her. Most importantly, it taught me that as a man, I have a role to play in birth. My wife does not need to do this aline, scared or frightened. Instead, as a team, we birthed our daughter into this world together, calmly, quietly and more in love with each other than ever before.”

  • “I had a pretty traumatic first birth and was a ball of anxiety with my second pregnancy. I never dreamed I’d be able to feel so fully calm and confident through my second pregnancy and birth. HypnoBirthing gave me the tools to have an unmedicated birth and taught me and my husband how to advocate for ourselves every step of the way. It was truly worth every penny!”

Intentional class design so you can look forward to your birth.

  • Positions for descent and birthing, breathing baby down to birth, afterglow and bonding, Fourth Trimester

“When you change the way you view birth, the way you birth will change.”

-Marie Mongan, founder of HypnoBirthing
