CALM BABY CIRCLE

My name is Sureena, founder of Calm Baby Circle. Hi and welcome, I am a Hypnobirthing Teacher and Baby Massage Instructor, accredited by the Royal College of Midwives and mum of two. I am a firm believer that with the right planning, preparation and mindset, every woman can have a positive birth experience.

My curiosity in Hypnobirthing began when I become pregnant with my second child. My first experience of child birth was somewhat distressing and the feeling of not being in control of my body and what was happening to me was something that did not sit well with me. I learnt that with the right tools, preparation and positive mindset I was able to have the most beautiful and relaxed birth that will stay with me forever.

Having experienced hypnobirthing myself I decided that I wanted to help other women to also have a positive birth and so trained to become a hypnobirthing teacher, accredited by The Royal College of Midwives.

Becoming a new parent can be a rollercoaster of a journey. Life is so busy at the best of times, that finding that one to one time with your baby to just sit and ‘be’ can be difficult. it can often feel as though you are on a conveyor belt constantly trying to keep up with life as a new parent and what it throws at you.

Being a mum of two myself I know all too well the struggles that come with being a new mum. I particularly struggled with my first child and looking back I know I suffered from postnatal depression. Something which is not always picked up on or diagnosed. I did not attend parent and baby classes and felt very alone and isolated. I look back and feel guilty for depriving my son of the social interaction and development he could have gained through meeting other people, however, I did the best I could through everything i was going through. Parenthood is a very rewarding journey, but it is not easy!

My experience is the reason why I am so passionate about pregnancy and parenthood. I want to provide a service for you to be able to come along with your baby and have a safe space to bond and grow together. Its not always possible to find that time at home because everyday life gets in the way. But here, at Calm Baby Circle i want to give you an hour or so out of your day where you don’t need to worry about any of that and just ‘be’. I want my classes to be inclusive for everyone. Its ok if you haven’t left the house since your baby was born. I totally get how hard it is to just feel like you again. I strive for my classes to be nurturing, to be your safe space where you want to keep attending and meet other parents who may be feeling the same. Remember…your child doesn’t need a perfect mum, they need a happy one! This is why Calm Baby Circle classes are not just for your baby, but also for you.

Calm Baby Circle’s mission is to educate and empower you to have trust in yourself, your body and your parental instincts . It is my aim to replace feelings of fear, anxiety and self-doubt with positivity and confidence. Calm Baby Circle is here to support you through pregnancy, birth and beyond.
