About
Hello, I’m Emma, I have lived in Dorking for 15 years, and am a mum of two beautiful children, my absolute world.
I became an accredited HypnoBirthing Certified Practitioner in 2018, learning the Mongan Method with the HypnoBirthing® Institute.
I became a real advocate for instinctive birth since experiencing the benefits of HypnoBirthing through both of my birth journeys, my son was induced at 41+5 weeks, and my daughter was born at home unassisted. The tools I had learnt through HynopBirthing truly enabled me to achieve calm and relaxed births for both my children and influence me daily in their upbringing.
Since the birth of my son I have been very fortunate to meet some wonderful people, mostly incredible women, who have given me a sense of community and driven me to pursue my passion and change in my career. I run a weekly gathering for mothers in the fourth trimester, The Mother Space and help encourage parents to enjoy our wonderful countryside whilst carrying their little ones in slings, arranging sling walks with the Surrey Hills Sling Social. I love carrying my children & supporting others to do so, having the wonderful experience of completing consultancy training with Slingababy in 2017.
I have a deep connection and love for natural healing and with self care in mind, I have developed a bespoke range of natural products to be enjoyed in the comfort of your own home to support you before and after birth, around your monthly menstruation & transitioning through the menopause. Herbal bath teas, yoni steam packages and yoni sitz sprays which contain only pure, dried flowers & herbs, prepared in small batches just for you, helping you to reconnect to small daily practices which can really honour your female body.

Hypnobirthing group classes
Group classes provide a relaxed space for you to prepare for your own, individual birthing journey, with the opportunity to meet local, like minded parents.
The group will have just 3 couples, so there is plenty of time to discuss your own feelings and needs, whilst you can support, and be supported by others.
Group classes take place on evenings and weekends, comprising of 5 sessions, with overall 12.5 hours of comprehensive teaching.
Group package includes;
5 sessions with 12.5 hours of comprehensive teaching; a copy of HypnoBirthing 4th edition book by Marie Mongan; audio copy of guided Rainbow Relaxation & Birth Affirmations; nama mama birth & pregnancy handbook; aromatherapy pulse point roller.
COST : £265 per couple
Hypnobirthing individual classes
Perhaps you are looking for some individual support or feel you may need some focus to work through any important feelings you may have around your upcoming birth.
The individual sessions are perfect if you may need to tailor the class times around your work or childcare commitments, and we can also discuss spacing the sessions across the duration of your pregnancy, with a final session perhaps 2-3 weeks ahead of your birthing time to get you fully in the zone.
I am able to work with you flexibly, within the course framework, to tailor the sessions to meet your needs perfectly.
You will benefit from the same course format as the group sessions, 5 classes, held in the comfort of your own home.
At nama mama I aim to foster a sense of community around my classes and after birth, so that you can feel supported in your journey, you will of course have the opportunity to meet like-minded parents as you will be warmly invited to nama mama gatherings and events throughout the year.
Individual package includes;
5 sessions with 12.5 hours of comprehensive teaching; copy of HypnoBirthing 4th edition book by Marie Mongan; audio copy of guided Rainbow Relaxation & Birth Affirmations; nama mama birth & pregnancy handbook; aromatherapy pulse point roller.
