Antenatal Hypnobirthing Classes in Newcastle Upon Tyne
The Ultimate group birth preparation course in central Newcastle
Pregnant and living in Newcastle?
Come and join me, Jessica Ord - hypnobirthing expert, childbirth author & professional doula for a fun, relaxed day carefully designed to help you feel calm, in control and ready for your baby's birth.
Over the past 6 years I've taught many antenatal and Hypnobirthing classes across the North East. I'm delighted to now bring my multi award winning, 5* rated birth preparation class to John Lewis, Newcastle.
Nestled within Newcastle's favourite department store, come join me and a group of other North East based parents to be in 'The Space' - a welcoming, tranquil room complete with private terrace.
My classes sole purpose is to empower, nurture and prepare you for your baby's birth...
I know it's so important that you're able to access reliable, evidence based information about birth in order to make the decisions which feel right for you, so you can go into (and out of!) birth feeling empowered, confident and in control.
You deserve to feel seen and understood as individuals, not simply 'another couple' on the conveyor belt of antenatal care. I've been there; feeling overwhelmed by so much information around pregnancy and birth, and ultimately burying my head in the sand out of overwhelm. That's why I created Positively Pregnant.
Over the past 6 years I've worked with over 500 couples just like you, to work towards the birth experience that THEY want. Having someone who regularly attends birth as a professional doula to guide and support you as you find the path which is right for you can feel invaluable.
These multi award winning antenatal birth preparation courses are limited to no more than 6 couples, so that you get the very best in service, attention and information - it also means you'll have plenty of opportunities to ask questions & get to know your classmates well. Many of the couples who have embarked on a course together remain great friends years down the line!
Held across 1 full day, and including a special 'bonus' hour to help you plan for the time AFTER baby is born (extra hour held online & free to attend with your birth prep booking).

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for preparing me for the birth of my daughter. Labour was more intense than I could ever have imagined, however I was able to let me body take over & ride out the sensations. I am so happy I did your course & I will be recommending you to every pregnant woman I meet

I recieved my box for the online course in the post this morning! I wasn't expecting it to be this beautiful! It even smells amazing! Such a luxurious touch to what is already an amazing course.
I've only watched the first 2 classes and already so much has shifted for me.

Labour was so magical. Towards the end the whole world just went still...I didn't feel pain, just total sublime joy & awe.
I still don't fully have the words for what this birth meant for me, but it was like a gift from the Universe to experience such a primal joy.
You helped me to fully prepare so that fear & pain never took over.

Meet your hypnobirthing teacher...
Hi! I'm Jessica Ord, award winning birth educator, Doula, pregnancy mindset author & hypnobirthing specialist.
Having founded Positively Pregnant in 2018, shortly after the birth of our son Monty; I pride myself in providing the very best in depth, evidence based but heart centred bespoke classes. Each course is perfectly tailored to the needs, worries and interests of the parents joining.
My approach to birth education is holistic and woman centred, weaving ancient wisdom with evidence based modern knowledge.
Over the past 6 years I have won several major awards, including 'Best Antenatal course - UK', 'Hypnobirthing Specialist of the Year' and 'Best in pregnancy support services'.
Why embark on a birth preparation or antenatal course with a Doula?
Well, with 6 years of experience under my belt, you can rest assured knowing that not only are my classes evidence based & woman centred - but they are also based on the reality of birth, navigating the maternity system and my lived experiences in the birth room, rather than something I learned on a course or in a book (although, of course, I have done LOTS of training over the years too!
I know what you really need to know, understand and have access to in order to have a beautiful experience of birth, no matter what your circumstances or wishes are.
Founded in Northumberland...
HELPING PARENTS ACROSS THE UK
Although my 'in person' hypnobirthing classes are based from our idyllic family farm in Northumberland, and now John Lewis in Newcastle too...
