Great News!

I am soooooo happy to announce that I am getting back to in-person classes. I am going back to my old venue - Hilton Hotel in Clarehall starting in November.

Antenatal & Hypnobirthing Classes

Birth can be a positive experience.

In my work I have the privilege of working alongside couples as they go through a life changing process - becoming parents to a new baby. This work accentuates for me the importance of the couple being well informed. Being informed can make a huge difference in the birth experience for both the birthing woman and her partner. In my classes my aim is to assist couples to become informed and empower themselves in preparation for birth and their roles as parents.

Who am I?

I am a midwife and antenatal teacher, a hypnobirthing teacher, a mother (my name is Sarah McCann and I'm a bit of a 'birth junkie!')

I am currently working in a Dublin maternity hospital and I have experience in all 3 Dublin maternity hospitals. I trained as an antenatal teacher with the parent support group - Cuidiu and I have been teaching antenatal classes for 16 years. I trained as a hypnobirthing teacher with Judith Flood on a Royal College of Midwives approved hypnobirthing course and I have been teaching hypnobirthing for the hospital for the last 6 years. I am also a mother to 4 grown ups!

I am passionate about birth and assisting women to have a positive birth experience. In order to have this I believe that women and their partners need to prepare, have access to evidence based information and trust their care providers.

Partial or full refund

As I am a midwife many health insurance policies allow for a partial or a full refund for my classes, depending on the policy.

Interesting articles, audio clips etc.

Some lovely feedback about my hypnobirthing course: "This course has made a huge difference to my outlook on the birthing journey. I thought it was something to get over and done with, a necessary evil, but now it feels much more like an experience that will be challenging but fulfilling. The role of the partner was really informative and I feel reassured that my partner will have sucn an integral role to play. That's very comforting to me. Thanks Sarah"

I've been asked countless times to do recordings of the scripts that I read out in class and finally........Thanks to my son Ross - he recorded me reading the scripts and has uploaded them. Thank you to Judith Flood for permission to upload the recordings of her scripts. You can find them at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCe2y35RE5KyyQtxwwCjBNUg
