Full Program Outline:
The ‘Positive Birth Program’ is Australia's leading childbirth education program, and the most comprehensive birth preparation curriculum on the market. This program has been designed to empower soon-to-be-parents to calmly and confidently birth their babies, free from fear, and in a way that feels aligned with their personal values and preferences.
Childbirth is not just a physical process but a beautiful rite of passage, steeped in wisdom and transformation. Historically this wisdom has been passed down through generations, creating a foundation of knowledge and strength. However, over time, some of this magic has been overshadowed by fear and misinformation. The ‘Positive Birth Program’ seeks to restore that lost wisdom, to provide expectant mothers and their birthing partners with the tools and knowledge they need to embrace childbirth as a positive, empowering, and imperfectly perfect experience.
Eclarity Fertility Coaching delivers 'The positive Birth Program' in multiple formats to cater for a diverse regional community in Townsville and North Queensland.

Positive Birth Program Feedback
"The positive birth program definitely gave us so much peace of mind and knowledge/understanding of what we were missing. You don't know what you don't know but now we feel so ready for baby to get here, and it feels amazing to trust that we know what we want!"
"Going through this program with you Elle after our infertility journey, has just felt like the most incredible full circle moment. You've been with us the whole way through. Your support, guidance and reassurance has gotten us through the ups and downs, and now we feel like we've reset and are ready to meet our baby. Thank you!"
"I wasn't sure about the hypnobirthing part when I signed up, but during the birth of our son, it was absolutely essential and I would have been lost without it. For those on the fence, hypnobirthing really just means being completely calm, relaxed and present with the experience. And it played a huge role in my perception of pain. I did the birthing classes the hospital offered too, and this program was soooo much more in depth. You owe it to yourself to not take birth for granted. Learn what to expect so you're ready."
"So glad I squeezed this in before bub arrived (just). I feel like this program not only helped me have an incredible birthing experience and birth story, but I feel like I'm now also able to approach newborn life with that same level of calm".
Frequently Asked Questions
What is hypnobirthing?
One of the key components of the ‘Positive Birth Program’ is hypnobirthing. Hypnobirthing is a practice that combines powerful relaxation techniques, breathing exercises, and positive affirmations to help you enter a state of deep relaxation and focus during labour. This state of relaxation reduces the fear and tension often associated with childbirth, allowing your body to function more effectively during labour – no matter the delivery method. By practicing hypnobirthing, you learn to connect with and trust your body’s ability to birth your baby, and can create a more serene and empowering birth experience.
Hypnobirthing can transform your birth experience by reducing pain and discomfort, shortening labour, and enhancing your sense of control and confidence. It helps you remain calm and focused, regardless of how your birth unfolds. This method also has a beautiful benefit of empowering your birth partner as an important part of the journey – through providing them with the knowledge and tools to effectively support you, which strengthens your bond, and prepares you both for the new roles you are about to embrace as parents.
What is the positive birth program?
The ‘Positive Birth Program’ is Australia's most comprehensive childbirth education program, founded on the belief that every birth journey is unique and that soon-to-be-parents should be empowered to make evidenced-based informed decisions. This program has been designed to enable birthing mothers to calmly and confidently birth their babies, tapping into their natural instincts and physical abilities, free from fear, and in a way that feels aligned with their personal values and preferences, and chosen delivery method.
Who is this program for?
This program is perfect for anyone expecting a baby who wants to feel more informed, empowered, and calm about their birth experience—whether it’s your first time or your fourth, every birth is different.
When is the best time to sign up for this program during pregnancy?
Parents-to-be can participate in the 'Positive Birth Program' at any point in their pregnancy, however it is recommended to begin between weeks 20-30 to ensure the information, tools, techniques, and practices remain fresh and front of mind to have the greatest impact throughout your birthing experience. In saying that, it's never too late - even if you are approaching your due date, get in touch as there may be an upcoming course, or private alternative available that works with your timeline.
What kind of support will I receive outside of the program?
Outside of the program delivery, ongoing support is offered to couples through the final stages of pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. Support is available through a dedicated communication channel at no extra charge. More in-depth focused support is also available through 1:1 consultations.
Can I participate in this program if I'm planning a caesarean birth?
Absolutely! The Positive Birth Program is designed to support all birthing preferences and methods, helping you feel empowered and prepared for whatever birth experience you choose.
Is this program only available for couples who have experienced infertility or IVF?
No! While the business is called "Eclarity Fertility Coaching", support is available to anyone throughout their pregnancy and preparing for birth experience. It is simply a big part of the Eclarity value set that every journey is unique, and therefore a focus is placed on having awareness that couples have all been through different paths to get to this point in preparing to welcome their baby.
