Client Testimonials
I came across Samantha’s hypnobirthing class when I was ~20 weeks pregnant, and it seemed very aligned with what I was looking for. Samantha was great at answering all my questions, and my husband and I began her class at the end of November 2024. I gave birth to my firstborn, Santino, in January 2025, and I can honestly say taking Samantha’s class was the best thing I did regarding preparing for birth. I made it to 8cm naturally by listening to hypnosis and using the tools I learned in class. I 10/10 recommend this class to anyone interested in a natural, intuitive, sacred, and holistic birthing experience.

Sam, is a wonderful doula, and is extremely educated in Hypnobirthing. She has been present in 2/3 of my children’s births, I honestly don’t know what I would have done without her. She is a very adamant advocate. She will stand up for you, and be your voice if it comes to a point you aren’t able to. Our 3rd baby is when we started the Hypnobirthing classes, and if it wasn’t for the classes, my 3rd birthing experience would have ended up like my other two birthing experiences. The time arrived, and I was in total control of my body. I was almost in trance-like, but in control of my mind. I listened to some HypnoBirthing tracks that Sam provided, in case I needed something extra. Sam, was there for me as a doula & HypnoBirthing coach. I highly recommend anyone who is looking for a birthing assistant, Samantha Wozniak should be on your radar. If I were to have anymore children, she will absolutely be hired again.
