Hiring Gabriella and learning Hypnobirthing was one of the best decisions my husband and I made for the birth of our daughter, Poppy. I found the Hypnobirth meditations and breathing exercises very helpful during the birth – they helped me to focus on the relaxing and gentle birth that I wanted. Gabriella was a wonderful support to have with us – not just for me but also for my husband. If we did not have Gabriella at home supporting us we would have arrived at the hospital much earlier. I only birthed at the hospital for 2 hours, which was wonderful! I wanted to birth at home for as long as possible, and Gabriella helped us to do this. I also believe that without Gabriella’s support at the hospital I would have been talked into getting an episiotomy – instead Gabriella worked with me to continue breathing and changing my position. Our daughter was born after only a few hours of active labour and a couple of internal stitches – the relaxing and gentle birth that I wanted!
Much love!
Nyree, Pete and Poppy
