Meet your local hypnobirthing teacher in Bexley: Alex
Hi, I’m Alex!
I’m a mum of two living in Bexleyheath. My eldest, Henry, is 4, and my youngest, James, has recently turned 1. When I’m not buried under a mountain of laundry, you’ll usually find me cooking, binge-watching questionable reality TV, or off on a day trip to the park or the seaside with the kids.
Before motherhood, I worked in marketing, running TV campaigns for big brands. I loved the creativity and pace, but it came with long hours and lots of travel. After Henry was born, I realised I didn’t want to miss out on watching him grow up, so I made the leap to go freelance - and I’ve never looked back.
When I was expecting James, I used hypnobirthing techniques and went into his birth feeling calm, confident, and in control. I never imagined it was possible to truly breathe your baby out, but that’s exactly what happened! It was such an empowering experience -transformative, even - and it helped me start the whirlwind of parenting two children feeling strong, happy, and relaxed.
That experience inspired me to support other expectant parents to begin their own journeys feeling the same way - calm, confident, and full of joy. So, I trained to become a hypnobirthing teacher, and now I’m so excited to share this wonderful approach with others.

Bexley Hypnobirthing Classes
We hold our Bexley antenatal group hypnobirthing classes in the North Cray Neighbourhood Centre, a cosy and modern venue that's ideal for meeting other pregnant parents-to-be in the London Borough of Bexley.
The North Cray Neighbourhood Centre is ideally placed for mamas-to-be who are having their antenatal care with Darent Valley Hospital materrnity, Lewisham Hospital, Queen Elizabeth Hospital (Woolwich), or the Princess Royal University Hospital (PRUH) in Orpington, including the PRUH Oasis Birth Centre. It is also just around the corner from Queen Mary's Hospital in Sidcup where many of our expectant parents have their 12 week and 20 week antenatal ultrasound scan appointments!
How to get here
Our Bexley group antenatal classes are held in a modern and family-friendly facility in the quiet residential area of North Cray (near Ruxley) with plenty of free parking in a secure car park.
The venue is accessible by multiple bus routes from Bexleyheath, Welling and Dartford. The closest train stations are Sidcup, Swanley and New Eltham. Our room is on the first floor of the building, fully accessible via lift or stairs.
The room has a small kitchenette area where tea and light refreshments will be provided so that you can get to know other local parents-to-be over a cuppa!
Giving birth at Darent Valley or another local hospital or birth centre?

How are we different to NCT classes in Bexley?
You can absolutely choose to do both NCT and Hypnobirthing.
NCT courses offer broader antenatal education, covering topics such as birth, feeding, newborn care and life with your baby. They can be a lovely way to prepare for parenthood and meet other local parents-to-be.
Hypnobirthing gives you more focused preparation for birth - helping you understand the physiology of labour, work with your body's natural processes, practise breathing and relaxation techniques, and prepare your birth partner to support you confidently.
At Rise & Glow Births, our Hypnobirthing classes are evidence-based and grounded in the latest research around birth, the mind-body connection and the physiology of labour. You'll have plenty of opportunity to practise the techniques together, so you're not simply learning about Hypnobirthing - you're building skills you can actually use during pregnancy, labour and birth.
Already considering NCT in Bexley?
You don't have to choose between the two.
Some parents choose Rise & Glow Hypnobirthing instead of an NCT course because they want their antenatal preparation to focus particularly on birth and Hypnobirthing. Others choose to do both, using NCT for broader antenatal and newborn education alongside dedicated Hypnobirthing preparation.
Both can also be a lovely way to meet other local parents-to-be and build a supportive community during pregnancy.
The right choice depends on what you want from your antenatal preparation - and if feeling calm, confident and prepared for birth is your priority, Hypnobirthing could be a wonderful addition.
Is Hypnobirthing worth it?
Absolutely, yes.
Regardless of what kind of birth you want, hypnobirthing will make it an easier, calmer and more positive experience for both you and your baby.
But don't just take my word for it!
