Congratulations on your pregnancy.

​

​

My name is Aoife Manning. I founded The Calm Birth Collective in 2016 after learning of the amazing power of hypnobirthing through working as a homebirth midwife and on a busy labour ward. I went on to experience its power having had my own hypnobirth in 2017.

​

Our classes are not just another hypnobirthing class. We combine hypnobirthing with a packed antenatal programme, built on a foundation of science, statistics and evidence based research. Our woman centred approach will leave you calm, empowered and ready to enjoy the rest of your pregnancy and excited for the birth of your baby. Our personalised courses will ensure you and your birth partner are confident, knowing you have all the tools and information you need to have a positive birth experience. ​

TIME has been lovingly crafted and created by Terri Irvin. Terri has been in the health and wellness industry for over two decades and during her career has been involved in everything from Health Spa Management and Skin Analysis, through to working with some of the top skincare product houses, both in the UK and internationally. As a Spa Consultant, Terri has trained 5-star spas all over the world and her in-depth knowledge of products & ingredients has led her to be an expert in her field. 

In 2015 Terri became a mother for the first time! This was to be the most fundamental transition in her life that carved a path for the future. Balancing being a pregnant, working woman was the first challenge, but was far from the last (but you can read more about that on our blog...) Since becoming a parent, Terri's interest in the birthing journey & motherhood has grown! Treatment-led pregnancy, the bodies' 'form' during pregnancy, the passion for a safe and positive birth, understanding of nutrition and successful breastfeeding are all core to her passion to support and mentor new parents on their birthing journey. 

This combination of professional expertise as well as a desire to draw on her own parental experience has naturally developed in a career in nurturing mums to be. TIME (Terri Irvin Managing Expectations) has developed a bespoke & personal treatment plan for new mothers. Through pregnancy massage you will be introduced to Hypnobirthing. This allows the body to completely relax and has many health benefits for both mum and baby!

Having a baby isn't the end of this wonderful journey... it is just the beginning. This is why we also offer a full support service.

I am foremost a mother of three teenage girls whom I think are amazing having taught me everything about motherhood.

I am passionate about midwifery and supporting mothers through pregnancy and in the postpartum period.

I am a midwife and mother of three. I teach yoga, pregnancy yoga and hypnobirthing.

I am a lactation consultant and I facilitate infant feeding workshops.

I have a keen interest in positive birth, breastfeeding and perinatal mental health.

I trained as a midwife in 2006 and I have also undertaken a PhD in the area of midwifery in recent years. As a result of this, I have a deeper understanding of how hypnobirthing can help you navigate the maternity services to ensure a birth that feels like you are in control. I work both in the hospital setting and as a homebirth midwife and absolutely love my job. I also work with a collective of doulas in a not-for-profit organisation called Wellmama Ireland that aims to improve birth experiences for all. I have four grown-up children and live in beautiful County Tipperary in Ireland.

Christine teaches KGHypnobirthing andPregnancy yoga   in Boyle Co Roscommon Ireland. She also teaches Anusara Hatha Yoga, iRest Yoga Nidra, Yin, and Restorative Yoga. She feels so honoured and humbled to have discovered KGHypnobirthing and the power of it in suppporting birth. Christine loves teaching this deeply knowledgable, subtle and powerful method of hypnobirthing.

As a certified KGHypnobirthing teacher and clinical hypnotherapist, I have helped many parents let go of their fears and anxieties around birth and enjoy their pregnancy to the fullest!
