POWER IN BIRTH®

Learn how to birth your baby with confidence and power.

Essential preparation for pregnancy, birth and early motherhood.

Do you want to prepare well for the birth of your baby so that…

  • you approach birth with confidence and ease, and avoid unnecessary interventions, while…

  • you have the confidence to choose those interventions that might be useful for you and your baby, if they are needed...

  • your decisions are based on your individual circumstances, and on your and your baby’s needs and not based on fear

  • you boost your chances of having a birth experience that leaves you feeling in control of your choices, meeting your physical and emotional needs while maintaining your dignity and personal power, however and wherever you choose to birth

  • you and your baby benefit from physiological (natural) birth with significant, life-long benefits

Power in Birth® courses are vital for parents who would like to prepare well for all aspects of birth,

such as mindset, emotional and transformative side, physiology and the postnatal period.

Power in Birth® antenatal and hypnobirthing courses are complete birth preparation, on your terms,

taking place online UK-wide or in person, in North-East Leeds and around West Yorkshire.

You can learn at a group class or in a private course.

My support does not end with the course and is included until the end of your postnatal period.

Hi, I’m Magdalena, the founder of Power in Birth®.

It’s always a privilege to be a small part of your pregnancy and birth journey.

Amazed by the power, complexity and the beauty of birth, I created an essential and bespoke birth preparation course for those of you who want to deepen the connection with your baby and seek a thorough antenatal course that includes everything from emotional prep, birth choices, dealing with fear of birth, to birth physiology and first weeks of parenting.

If you want to experience birth at the peak of your personal power and, at the same time, welcome your baby as gently as possible, then I might be just the person to support your needs.

Forget about leaving your dignity at the door!

Make the birth of your baby the most memorable experience for all the right reasons, with life-long benefits to you and your family.

What’s different about my antenatal and hypnobirthing courses?

  • My support doesn’t end with the completion of the course. I support you until the end of your postnatal (postpartum) period. This is included in all group courses (online support) and in person courses (in person support). Genuinely honouring your needs also means you won’t get any pressure to book or won’t be subjected to any questionable marketing tactics. I won’t be squeezing you through a marketing funnel. This service is an invitation, and you decide what’s right for you, just as you do in pregnancy, birth and beyond.

  • I’ve got you covered! At my courses, I invite you to learn about all aspects of birth, including pregnancy and birth rights, birth advocacy and self-empowerment. You, and your birth partner, will have an opportunity to learn the essentials of birth physiology, as well as about emotional, intuitive and mindful (somatic and self-regulation, trauma-informed) side of labour. Preparation for the first days with your new baby is also included.

    What if you learn about all that physiology, and more, but your baby is in suboptimal position for birth? Yes, I cover this too! I’m a certified biomechanics practitioner: I do share with you how to gently facilitate the optimal baby position, long before labour starts and during birth too!

  • I prepare you for changing circumstances (e.g. how to retain elements of your birth plan, even if your circumstances change, how to decide what is right for you individually). Supporting you with a range of tools, my aim is to put you firmly in control of your pregnancy and birth choices.

    While physiology and undisturbed birth is my key focus and a special area of interest (aka physiological/vaginal/normal birth without interventions, in an environment of your choice), I accept that every birth is different and that, very occasionally, it might need additional help. With that in mind, I included guidance about navigating change of circumstances while keeping your dignity and power firmly with you.

    We discuss how to keep the stress at bay and how to approach decision making in a wide range of scenarios .

  • For parents with previous difficult birth experience, I offer individual care before the course start and ongoing support to build your skills for birth on solid foundations. If this applies to you, please book a call to discuss your needs as soon as you can, ideally before the course start.

    This service is included in the Holistic Birth Prep course, and heavily discounted with all other services and courses.

    If you have experienced birth trauma or a negative birth experience that is affecting you in the current pregnancy, please have a look at the Perinatal Support tab on the menu at the top of this page or simply get in touch.

READ REAL BIRTH STORIES

As written by you, uncut and unedited. Your true and awe-inspiring birth experiences after completing my birth prep courses.

  • Can't thank you enough for all the help bringing Isla into the world and a positive birth experience!

    Zoë, Edinburgh

  • Magdalena at Power in Birth was so professional, super friendly and knowledgeable. Everything was so well explained, and she made us feel completely comfortable. I honestly don't think that without the course I would have coped half as well as I did. I felt very capable of the final stages of birth, which were so memorable! We would recommend it to anybody.

    Sarah, Yorkshire

  • Thank you so very much for everything! Hypnobirthing was amazing, as was your continuous support. We really appreciated it!

    Elizabeth, Yorkshire

  • You gave us so much valuable and key information. I felt so empowered again, just re-reading all your messages, slides and pictures! You were so kind and caring and full of knowledge. It really helped us to prep for our birth. I so appreciate everything you did for us, as we ended up birthing at home without a midwife. You have continued to support me after birth and only being a text or DM away. You have such passion for what you do, and I hope you go on to help so many other women to plan and prep for their birth.

    Olivia, Warwickshire

  • To any partners out there, this is 100% worth doing, don't question if you should do it, you need to do it! … I learned so much more than I had from the books, blogs, or websites I had read, and I also understood how my role as the partner could really benefit my other half when the time came to birth.

    Matt, Yorkshire

  • We've learnt so much more than in NCT classes! I enjoyed all our sessions and just how much it prepared me and reassured my wife. It was 100% worth it. I learned specifically where I could support. Also knowing the birthing plan and having the confidence to challenge any decision deviating from the plan/ bursting mums bubble during labour.

    Rudi, Leeds

  • The course changed my perception of birth. I think I would have been a ball of panic without the learning that Magdalena offered, breathing techniques, pain relief technique and how to prepare for challenging situations. The course included information about my birth rights and also about the benefits of physiological birth to the baby.
