Meet Michelle
Hi, I’m Michelle. I am a certified childbirth educator and founder of My Hypnobirthing. I support expecting parents across Melbourne with gentle, evidence-based and empowering birth preparation.
My approach blends education, mindset and practical tools to help you and your birth partner feel calm, informed and confident—no matter what kind of birth you’re planning. I believe every family deserves birth education that truly aligns with their values, preference and unique journey.
I offer several beautifully aligned options designed to meet you exactly where you are!
Choose the Birth Education Path that Feels Right For You
Because every family prepares for birth differently, I offer two distinct learning streams designed to support your needs, preferences, and timeline. Choose from Group Workshops and Private options tailored to suit your individual needs including planned caesarean birth.

Kind Words
'I would highly recommend taking a class with Michelle. I was very nervous around the thought of labour but after our sessions together I feel much more confident going into the experience, even looking forward to it now. Thank you so much Michelle we learnt so much from you. xx'

'We are so grateful to Michelle for guiding us through our first birth journey with such calm, knowledge, and support. Her HypnoBirthing teachings gave us confidence, peace, and a sense of empowerment as we prepare to welcome our baby. She made what felt overwhelming feel possible, and we will carry her guidance with us always.'

'Michelle’s course was soooo informative & reassuring. We left feeling much more prepared and relaxed about giving birth! Michelle was so knowledgeable and a great presenter - very clear, experienced, warm and interesting. We now know so much more about how we can prepare for a calmer birth & it’s eased a lot of worries! Would recommend this course to EVERYONE.'

Jordy's Birth Story
I was 40+6 and feeling very nervous at the prospect of an induction if he did not decide to come on his own.

Chiara's Birth Story
Although Joe and I had planned and envisioned a natural birth from the beginning, we were met with a very unexpected circumstance. After a swim at a local pool and uncomfortable pain and cramping, our little girl decided to flip head up - breech. And, scan after scan she remained that way, despite my wildest attempts to turn her!
