"My husband (Levi) and I completed both the Transition to Parenthood and Mindful Hypnobirth classes that Julie facilitates. I cannot fathom how important these classes were to the birth of my baby girl. Julie provided information that empowered my husband and I for the whole birthing process. Her knowledge and assistance gave us the confidence to question the..." Read more

"If you don’t know Julie, are you even really Pregnant? Julie was recommended by so many friends, it was a hard force to ignore. Since attending Julie’s Mindful Hypnobirth course, I still hear of people who know her from their older children who are now in their teens!). Julie has a strong reputation for a reason and it truly shows. Not only is Julie knowle..." Read more

"You would have to be absolutely bonkers to be even thinking about giving birth without attending Julie's course! My wife and I were absolutely blown away with Julie's knowledge and her passion for all things baby related. I can safely say 100% that without this course, we would have been totally lost and probably would have been "pushed into" the standard..." Read more

"My husband & I have completed both Mindful Hypnobirth and Transition Into Parenthood classes with Julie and cannot recommend her more highly. She has such an ease when it comes to teaching, and brings out so much in you with regards to feelings and emotions around birthing/parenting. She gives you the facts so that you are well prepared, and shares her many..." Read more

"We completed both the Mindful Hypnobirth and Transition into Parenthood courses with Julie before the arrival of our firstborn and I couldn't recommend these enough! We both felt so much more relaxed and prepared for the arrival of our baby. Even though I ended up having a planned C-section due to medical reasons, I still used all the visualization and relax..."

"This is the most valuable course you will ever do. I strongly recommend that everyone do it. Not only will you and your partner learn so much that you can't pick up in books, but Julie is so willing to answer even the strangest questions with so much joy. I am now really looking forward to giving birth without any fear. Thanks Julie!"

"We had such a positive experience with Julie in the 3 days we spent with her learning about birthing and how amazing our body is. Feeling far more at ease about the upcoming process, and doing our best to not listen to the negative experiences from friends, and focusing on welcoming this new bubba in a safe and positive way. Must admit hubby was a sceptic,..." Read more

"We did both courses with Julie (Transition to Parenting and Mindful Hypnobirth). They were the reason we were able to have a safe, natural and stress-free start to our new family. I felt so afraid of childbirth itself before we signed up - something she taught us increases your experience of pain, so we learned how to keep the pain of childbirth to a minimum..." Read more

"My husband and I learned a great deal at both of Julie's classes (TIP and MHB) and would highly recommend it as a must-do for other first-time parents-to-be. My husband was slightly skeptical at first, but this soon changed as Julie opened his eyes to the truth about labour etc. and the important part he will play. I entered Julie's lovely classroom unsu..." Read more

"We found the course a great choice to help both of us better understand the means to cope with potential stress or anxiety leading up to and during the birth. Being in an environment with other prospective parents to share their own thoughts on the birth process and understand some of the ways to deal with it gives us more confidence going into the delivery...."

"Great course to prepare you for childbirth! Helped my husband and I to be on the same page when it came to labour, when we had no idea what to expect or how to react to the different situations that may come up. Could not recommend enough."

"I would recommend both these courses to all expectant parents. Julie is a fantastic teacher and I walked away feeling ready to give birth. These courses have really taken my fears about labour, birth and parenthood away. It has also given me tools I can draw upon to deal with difficult situations that may arise during labour and birth."

"Julie is an amazing teacher and her courses are extremely informative. So glad we attended and learnt how childbirth really should be. This course really has opened our eyes to how childbirth and labour should be compared to how it is portrayed in mass media."

"We did both the Mindful Hypnobirth and Transition Into Parenthood courses. And can definitely say that what we got from these courses helped us to achieve the natural birthing experience that we had hoped for. We've had two babies now and both births were an amazing experience that is partly due to the knowledge we gained from both courses. They covered off..." Read more

"Can't recommend Julie Clarke's Mindful Hypnobirth and Condensed Transition Into Parenting courses enough!! I was a bit anxious about the labour and whether I could achieve the natural, drug-free birth I was hoping for and left the courses feeling confident and ready. My husband was fearful he would faint during the labour, but having learned about what to ex..." Read more

It would have been a totally different experience without all the knowledge and confidence she instilled in us! We knew what to expect and we were fearless!

Going in, I had expected antenatal courses in general to be fairly dry, but Julie’s teaching style is anything but that. Her approach is conversational, warm, and engaging, making wha..." Read more
