Welcome to my website.

My name is Sue Austen and I am a Qualified HypnoBirthing® Practitioner working in the Karangahake Gorge, Paeroa, New Zealand.

HypnoBirthing® is a gentle childbirth method which helps achieve a rewarding and stress-free birthing. HypnoBirthing® techniques are easy to learn and apply. Couples learn the techniques together in one enjoyable, informative weekend class.

I hope you enjoy this site and learning more about HypnoBirthing®.

Warm regards,
Sue

I am currently on maternity leave and have asked Helen Bartrom, who is based in Auckland, to run my classes for me. For all enquiries please email Helen on: info@hypnobirthing.co.nz
