Hello, I'm so glad you're here!
Welcome to my website!
My name is Gemma Struzena and I am an experienced hypnobirthing teacher and proud mum of two.
I'm delighted that you're considering hypnobirthing for your upcoming birth and would love to support you and your partner at this special time. Having used hypnobirthing for the births of both my own children I know first hand how positive and transformational a hypnobirthing birth can be.
I truly believe there is no better birth preparation than hypnobirthing and I love supporting expecting parents like you with knowledge, tools and practical techniques to feel completely ready and fully prepared for a calm and beautiful birth.
What is hypnobirthing and is it right for me?
Hypnobirthing is a powerful type of birth preparation that will provide you and your birth partner with simple yet effective tools to use for a positive birth experience.
If you're here because you want to learn about how to give birth, gain birth confidence, learn effective breathing and relaxation techniques to help you remain calm and experience a positive birth, then you've come to the right place!
As your hypnobirthing teacher, I am here every step of the way to provide you and your partner with all the information, practical tools and resources that you need to feel fully supported and prepared for birth.
From understanding your birth journey right through to planning the kind of birth that's right for you, I want you to know that a positive birth is possible, no matter where or how your baby is born. ​
Testimonials
Aisha & Richard
"Prior to enrolling into Gemma’s hypnobirthing course I felt quite anxious and scared when I thought about my upcoming birth. I have come away from the course feeling empowered with knowledge, confident about my choices, armed with a new mindset towards birth and assured that my birth partner knows how they can best support me.
​
Gemma is very kind and relatable, it’s clear that this is her passion and she genuinely wants everyone to have a positive birth experience. I feel really positive about giving birth as a result of this course and for that reason alone I strongly recommend giving hypnobirthing with Gemma a try!"

Testimonials
"We loved the sessions! We took away so much information and knowledge and felt really prepared for labour. My husband felt way better prepared knowing that he can play a key part during the whole process too.
​
We absolutely recommend hypnobirthing in general and learning with Gemma specifically. She is a very lovely person, teaching from the heart and listening to your personal and individual needs."
