Hello, my name is Carole and I have been trained to teach the Katherine Graves method of Hynobirthing. I am a practicing midwife and qualified complementary therapist. I am employed part time within the NHS as a midwife, working at the local birth centre and I run my business Optimum Birthing, which provides complementary therapies for pregnant mums. I feel very privileged to be able to accompany women and their partners through the final part of their childbirth journey. For me, to be part of that special moment when they finally meet their baby for the first time is truly magical. I live with my husband Chris in Macclesfield, our two grown up children have flown the nest and set up homes of their own nearby. I really wish that hypnobirthing had been around at the time of their births, as I know that I would have loved hypnobirthing my babies.
I believe that childbirth is one of the most challenge experiences in a woman’s life, one that will always be remembered. I know that Hypnobirthing is an amazing way for you and your partner to prepare for the birth of your baby, as you will both learn how to relax, be more confident and able to take control of your birthing experience. With Hypnobirthing you will learn to work with your body in a natural way, to trust in your natural instincts, making the birth of your baby a positive experience for you, your baby and your partner. Hypnobirthing doesn’t make any false promises, just that it can enable you and your baby to have a calm, drug free, gentle and more comfortable birth, however and where ever you give birth.
We really recommend booking onto one of Carole's hypnobirthing courses. She is a brilliant teacher, the course was so relaxed yet informative, the techniques we learned were amazing, we now feel fully prepared and are really looking forward to giving birth to our baby. Thank you from Sarah & Matt (Carole we are happy for you to give out our contact details to anyone wanting to contact us directly)
I offer Hypnobirthing classes over 12 hours as a complete antenatal programme. Each course will provide all the necessary tools and scripts that you will need, including the Katharine Graves Hypnobirthing book, pre-course CD, course handouts and an Aromatherapy session. Courses can be started at anytime during pregnancy, but the earlier the better, with plenty of time to practice. I offer courses in Cheshire, South Manchester and North Derbyshire, with options for booking as follows.
One-to-one course in the comfort of your own home, tailored to suit your individual needs, arranged at a suitable time and day - £295 or get together with a couple of friends to reduce the cost.

A refresher course, individually tailored for anyone who has previously done the course, but wants an update - £100.
Whichever course you book, I will be available for help and advice anytime until after your baby is born. Please contact me for more information or if you want to make a booking on 07917 768895, e-mail carole@optimumbirthing.co.uk also see my website for more details www.optimumbirthing.co.uk.
