You can’t prepare for a baby only with gear, checklists, and a birth plan.

The real preparation starts before birth - when you begin to know your baby and learn to trust yourself as their parent.

Enter labor, birth, and early parenthood feeling calmer, more confident, and emotionally ready.

Most pregnant couples spend time getting ready for birth. Very few prepare for the transition into parenthood.

Today’s expectant couples are flooded with information, advice, and expectations. They register for childbirth classes, pick best providers, and decorate nurseries.

Yet, many still wonder:

Will I know what to do when the baby is here?

Why don’t I feel as connected as I thought I would? Will the connection happen for me at all?

Why do I feel anxious even when everything looks “fine”?

Pregnancy is not only a time to prepare for birth, but also the beginning of your relationship with your baby — and with yourself as a parent.

When families feel calm, supported, and confident, the transition into parenthood often feel far less overwhelming.

My Mission

In a world filled with noise, pressure, and endless advice, my mission is to help parents slow down and connect with their own intuition, their baby, and themselves.

Through Hypnobirthing and Prenatal Bonding (BA) I help families prepare not only for labor, but for the emotional transition into parenthood.

Hypnobirthing

Learn relaxation techniques, self-hypnosis, and evidence-based tools to experience a calmer, more confident birth. Ideal for expectant parents who want to reduce fear, feel empowered, and create a positive birth experience together.

Hi there!

I’M IVANA.

If you’re here, chances are you want more than information.

You want to feel supported, reassured, and confident that you can do this, and that you are already enough for your baby.

Whether you are trying to conceive, navigating pregnancy, preparing for birth, or adjusting to life postpartum, you deserve support that helps you feel calmer, not more overwhelmed.

Through a blend of meditation, coaching, and education, I help parents release fear and stress, reconnect with themselves, and move into parenthood feeling more supported and emotionally prepared.

My role is not to tell you how to parent. It is to help you trust yourself more deeply so you can welcome your baby with greater calm, connection, and confidence.

What parents have said

  • What a wonderful experience with an incredible instructor! Ivana’s hypnobirthing class was engaging, informative & critical in making my third birth be the amazing, empowering natural birth experience I had always hoped for. Even as third-time parents, my husband and I truly enjoyed the classes and learned SO MUCH. Afterwards we felt totally prepared & confident. And when our baby decided to arrive, we absolutely had the tools & techniques on hand to have the calm, unmedicated hypnobirth we wanted. Even the hospital staff asked us where we learned our birthing techniques!

  • If you're going to be a first-time mom, you definitely want Ivana in your circle. The HypnoBirthing tools I learned in her class helped me to have more control over the outcome of my labor and birth experience (which is miraculous!). The HB method can be a lot of information to take in, but Ivana helps you to focus on the most important pieces and gives you the confidence to be true to yourself and what you want for your experience.

    Amy

  • Ivana is a fantastic hypnobirthing instructor who truly embodies her teachings. She balances discussion of standard course material with tailoring the lessons to the needs of the person/group. She is clearly well-versed and passionate about the work, which radiates when she guides us through each piece of information and exercise. She is a genuine, compassionate, and empathetic person, which is extremely beneficial in easing anxiety and apprehension and leaning into mindful-based practice and connection with body and baby.

    Rachel

  • My birthing experience was far from the hypnobirthing minimal medical intervention one we wanted, but I am so grateful for the class and everything I learned and was able to put into practice during the experience. I remained mentally strong during everything in what was a very stressful situation, and I’m proud of myself for my ability to keep going and surrender to my body when it wasn’t going my way. Thank you for giving me the tools I needed to be successful in birthing a beautiful healthy baby!

  • I really want to thank you again for all of the help, it was a completely different experience compared to my first (I had a spinal headache due to the misplaced epidural). I'm so happy that everything went perfectly.

    Pammy and Randy

  • Taking the Hypnobirthing course from Ivana was one of the best things we did to prepare for our birth. We feel calm, confident and excited about the birth of our son. Ivana uses her intuition to personalize the program while still hitting on all the information we needed to absorb. She is clear and thorough in her explanations and was so open to any question or concern we brought up.
