Do you need Birthing Basics (required if you are not a birth professional)?
The 4 day training includes an overview of Hypnosis and an in-depth exploration of the HypnoBirthing syllabus.
Birthing Basics is taken as a home study by all who are not birth professionals (doctors, labour nurses, midwives, doulas or childbirth educators). Please order Birthing Basics and add the cost when you pay your tuition.

When you complete your practitioner training and the certification requirements you can proudly call yourself a HypnoBirthing® Childbirth Educator (HBCE). You will join a group of dedicated educators in nearly 50 countries around the world bringing the message that birth is natural, normal and healthy. You will have the tools to help birthing people release their fears and use specialized breathing, relaxation, visualization and massage techniques to create a positive birth experience. You will be a part of a powerful movement helping birthing people and their partners find the best in themselves as they and their babies experience birth as it is meant to be. As an educator you will have the online support and insights of other instructors.
Please note that the power of this specialized childbirth education program is in its completeness.
Instructors are required to teach the program as 5 weekly prenatal classes of 2 1/2 hours each under the name of HypnoBirthing®. Techniques should only be taught as part of the HypnoBirthing course and not added to other prenatal programs. Teaching materials are included in your tuition. You must purchase a book, the recordings and the parent handbook from the HypnoBirthing® Institute for each couple you teach at a cost of about $60 CAD. Instructors are asked to charge class fees comparable to those charged by other instructors in their area.
The HypnoBirthing® course gave us the confidence to enter the birth without fear or doubt. I was never once offered pain medication and did not think about it. I’m lucky to have taken the course. — Jane
