Calmbirth is a childbirth education program that was developed to re-educate and re-empower women about the natural process of birth. Calmbirth strives to educate women and their partners about the amazing abilities of their bodies to give birth. Through this education comes a trust and a faith in their bodies allowing for an amazing birth experience. We believe that when we learn how to embrace b

irth as a natural part of life & not fear it, then the way we experience and talk about birth will positively affect future generations.

One of my favourite sayings at Calmbirth is, “An open mind is an open body.”

When it comes to birth, having an open mind is so important. There are many factors that can influence your birth experience, including your beliefs, mindset, birth environment, and the support team around you. Each of these elements plays a role in shaping how your birth unfolds.

At Calmbirth, we focus on preparing your mind just as much as we prepare your body. We encourage you to immerse yourself in positive birth stories, podcasts, and education from evidence-based, holistic, and unbiased sources. We also support you in choosing a birth team that respects and supports your decisions, giving you the best possible opportunity to achieve the birth experience you hope for.

I would love to welcome you to one of my Calmbirth courses in the Southern Highlands. Together, we explore the powerful connection between mind, body, and birth, while building confidence, strengthening connections with our partners, and sharing the journey with other like-minded couples who are experiencing many of the same thoughts, feelings, and questions about birth.

My next Upcoming course dates are:
13th & 14th June
4th & 5th July
25th & 26th July
8th & 9th August
29th & 30th August

Finding out your pregnant should be an exciting and happy moment in your life but for some this pregnancy news can come with feelings of uncertainty and overwhelm. That’s completely normal and you’re not alone. At Calmbirth, we’re here to hold space for you and your birth partner as you navigate any doubts, fears, hopes, or questions you may have to create the best birth experience for you and your baby

Our Program gives you a deep understanding of birth and how to work with it. Though what sets Calmbirth apart from other Programs is the beautiful therapy embedded in our program that shows you how to build your resilience & confidence, increasing your capacity to work with the stress of birth and this transformative time. This resilience will continue into your parenting and everyday life. Calmbirth gives you the tools to work with your labour and birth regardless of your birth journey, these tools include: breathing techniques, visualisation and guided relaxations.

"I have always suffered from anxiety and childbirth has felt like a daunting experience throughout my pregnancy. I’m so glad I did the calmbirth course as it has changed my mindset leading up to my labour. The course provided me with the tools I needed to remain calm and in control of the process, visualising the outcomes I want, and resources to practice at home. I would highly recommend Calmbirth to anyone embarking on their pregnancy journey."

"A thorough and informative explanation of the labour and birth journey. I particularly liked the reflection that everyone’s path will be different but the toolkit remains applicable to all. Thank YOU! Calmbirth.

"Never felt like there was a question I couldn’t ask even if it perhaps wasn’t relevant. I definitely feel much more prepared to be the support, my partner will need when the time comes. Thank YOU Calmbirth."

Calmbirth isn’t just another antenatal class. Calmbirth is Australia’s blueprint for all other childbirth education programs. We are the trusted leaders in childbirth education as we have the longevity, credibility, and experience behind us.

Our Program gives you a deep understanding of birth and how to work with it. Though what sets Calmbirth apart from other Programs is the beautiful therapy embedded in our program that shows you how to build your resilience & confidence, increasing your capacity to work with the stress of birth and this transformative time.

With over 60,000 couples taught and nearly 100 trained Calmbirth Educators who are midwives and doulas, across Australia and New Zealand we have the wisdom and expertise to help you feel fully prepared for birth with confidence - mind-body & heart.

“It really ticked all our boxes for what we wanted to get out of it. We feel much more prepared to tackle whatever happens in the birth, knowing to stay calm, safe, and private. There is no pass or fail and we need to let go and go with the flow. We know a lot more about breathing techniques and positions to try. Our toolbox is full. Thank you.”

“My partner and I are feeling so much more informed after attending Calmbirth and can’t wait to utilise these skills for the birth of our baby! We would highly recommend Calmbbirth to our fellow pregnant friends, and as a midwife myself, I will continue to recommend Calmbirth to any families I care for who are motivated to attend a childbirth education course in their pregnancy!”

“Everything was thoroughly spoken about, and we feel prepared for birth with a heightened ability to advocate for ourselves. We thoroughly enjoyed both days of the Calmbirth course, and have walked away with the knowledge and tools we feel we need for birth. We are now genuinely looking forward to this part of our family’s journey and feel empowered that we know how to work towards our ideal outcomes. Thank you so much we’ll be recommending this course to anyone and everyone!”

“My husband and I absolutely loved our Calmbirth course! We got everything we wanted out of it and Deb was an absolutely amazing educator and made me feel safe and able to explore lots of practices and techniques for birth. It has definitely given us a lot to think about and practice and we both feel much more prepared (and even excited!) for the birth of our baby!”
