Meet Maeva
Maéva found her passion when she trained to become a hypnotist in 2009. She decided to become a childbirth educator in 2012 and embarked on doula work when her first clients asked her to support them during labor.
She trained with Marie Mongan founder of HypnoBirthing, Gail Tully founder of Spinning Babies and Penny Simkin.
Drawing from her doula, hypnobirthing and hypnosis experience she has developed her own childbirth preparation classes called Confident Birth.
Maéva strives to empower people to make birthing choices that work for them and their families.

I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to overcome fear or just have a more positive birth experience.”

"I was terrified and super scared of birth given all the stories I've read, movies I've watched. And I was also very fearful of the idea of epidural. I felt a lot less scared after taking the class and I was very happy to report that I managed to give birth to my son without epidural! I am so grateful for what I learned in this class!"
Marley

“I was nervous and had some anxiety thinking about the birth. I decided early on that I wanted to educate myself about what to expect on that day... What was most beneficial for me was learning step by step what to expect, from when I had my first surges to getting to the hospital, and what would follow once I was there. We felt much more prepared, excited and empowered after taking the class.”

"Learning with Maeva was one of the best decisions I made during my pregnancy. I had a successful home birth, and the knowledge that I took away from the class is a big reason why I had such a positive birth. The class combines breathing/relaxation exercises with knowledge of the physiology of birth. During my (30 hour!) labor at home, I was in control and felt empowered because I knew what was happening in my body, and how I could use my breath to calm my mind and body. I'm not saying labor was easy, it was VERY hard work, but Hypnobirthing helped remove fear. I'm holding my baby girl in my arms right now, and I know that Maeva was part of the incredible team of women that helped bring her to me.

“Overall my labor was one thousand times more calm than I ever imagined it could be, thanks to Maeva. Maeva's classes via zoom during COVID were the highlight of our week, and kept us grounded and peaceful. It still felt like we were able to connect as a group and get one-on-one support despite not being in the same room.

“This class is the best! Maeve is absolutely wonderful! I couldn't have been happier with the choice for preparing for my first birth. I learned so many helpful tools and was grateful to have them during the birth.
