In 10/11/12th November 2017 Sophie Fletcher will be running a Mindful Hypnobirthing practitioner training course in Sydney. This is unique opportunity do the Mindful Hypnobirthing practitioner training to teach a hugely popular one day Mindful Mamma, mindfulness and hypnosis for birth course that has been running in the UK for 10 years.
If you are interested in teaching a class that combines different emotional techniques to prepare a couple for a positive birth experience this is the class for you. As a one day class it fits well with people’s busy lifestyles and is adaptable for private classes as well.
You can train as an Accredited or Associate Practitioner
Accredited Practitioner
Mindful Mamma is the only hypnobirthing and mindful birth course to ensure that all the accredited practitioners are qualified as either, midwives, hypnotherapists, counsellors, NCT teachers or clinical psychologists or complementary practitioners registered with a recognised body.
An accredited practitioner can work to their training and strengths and has some degree of flexibility in how they teach the class. Being able to tailor it to individual couples is an advantage of having additional training.
Associate Practitioner
An associate practitioner is someone who loves hypnobirthing! And wants to teach other women, you are likely to want to become an associate practitioner if you have had a hypnobirth yourself. You will have to stick to the structure of the class in the handbook and will not be able to tailor classes for individual clients. Associates always have the opportunity to move to accredited status once they undergo further training.
“I recently attended a Mindful Mamma Practitioner training course run by Sophie. It was a great weekend which was expertly organised and delivered. The content of the course was well thought through and clearly explained. I am now looking forward to working as a Mindful Mamma practitioner as part of this excellent organisation.” Tracy
Our course has been tried and tested for 10 years and we have taught over 4,000 people in the UK. Our classes are particularly popular as they give you the flexibility to use your own techniques as long as you get the core Mindful Mamma messages across to your couples. When you train you’ll be able to teach hypnobirthing flexibly but with the confidence of knowing you have a great network behind you.
We get feedback from clients that is outstanding and due to the ability of the practitioners to tailor the class to their individual clients.
I’m incredibly proud of how our practitioners teach and am 100% confident that their skills and backgrounds mean that Mindful Mamma has a valued reputation with couples and their caregivers.
In 2014 Sophie Fletcher had a book, Mindful Hypnobirthing, published by Penguin Random House, which supports the class and which has sold over 20,000 copies to date. There is increasing popularity in our class which is the only class to combine, hypnosis, mindfulness and NLP. The book and MP3s sell well in Australia and training is due to demand from women who have written to us wanting to do a class in Australia.
