"This is the start of your birthing journey and thank you for visiting Birth Love Now"
Through this website, courses and workshops, my intention is to provide you with a valuable resource to aid and guide you [and your partner] on your birthing journey.
You are truly magnificent and already have within you everything that you need to naturally bring your baby into this world in an empowered and conscious way.
Unfortunately you may have been told otherwise or have fears about your birth, because every single film you have ever seen depicts birth as painful and scary.
This simply isn’t true and I will guide you into reconnecting with your innate Wisdom that already knows how to give birth, naturally, consciously and without fear.
We will use a combination of Hypnobirthing and Guided Imagery techniques to reconnect you with this innate Wisdom.
What is Hypnobirthing?
Hypnobirthing is an extremely effective and established method that lets you discover the joy and magic of birth, in true empowerment, through facing fears head on and releasing them fully.
Hypnobirthing gives you powerful tools to train your mind and body to work in harmony, the way nature intended; it is your ante-natal training of choice.
My classes are empowering, and come with a wealth of information giving you practical approaches and easy steps to take in order to experience deep relaxation, wonderful calm, and positive connection in every step of your pregnancy and birth journey.
You will learn a variety of safe and comfortable hypnosis and visualisation techniques. I will teach your partner specialist pre-natal massage to continue growing your relaxation through your body and posture, aiding your efficient labour.
In addition, you will be provided with personalised scripts, practical workbooks and relaxation CDs or MP3’.
With practice, it will become increasingly enjoyable, as your awareness of oxytocin flows through you and your partner to your baby, together.
The course runs over 12 hours at your pace, daytime or evening my gift to each mama is an inclusive pre-natal massage with me x
With Hypnobirthing you are more likely to experience feeling more in control, confident and calm in your unique birthing experience. Here are just a few of the benefits:
Testimonials and Birthing Stories
Kimberley and John’s Birth Story
Hypnobirthing was invaluable in helping me to relax my entire mind & body during each surge, which made the whole birthing experience so much more manageable.
Once my baby was born the midwife claimed it was the calmest birth she had attended & she couldn’t believe I was a first time mum.
I know that this is due to all of the help Melanie provided during the Hypnobirthing course.
Danielle and Kevin’s Birth Story
Like most women, labour was something that I had anxiety about from a young age. As I approached my own with my first baby I felt consumed with fear and anxiety and decided to look into hypnobirthing.
I found a lot of practitioners but something about Melanie stood out positively.
We had a phone call and I instantly felt at ease. We had a number of sessions together exploring and understanding the mechanics of labour, practicing visualisations and calming techniques and positive positions for giving birth. Within a couple of weeks I felt more in control due to the deepening of our understanding.
Above all the techniques we learnt during our sessions helped me cope and even enjoy some aspects of our labour!
Charlie arrived after a natural birth and is now four months old. It’s been such a journey for us all but I look back and can’t value enough the space we dedicated together as a couple and with Melanie.
If you are even considering hypnobirthing, it is likely it would be beneficial to you and your baby x
Somer and Dan’s Birth Story
There are no words to suffice how much Melanie’s wonderful range of services impacted my pregnancy and the birth of our son. Her impressive range of talents allowed her to guide us in hypnobirthing, pre and postnatal massage, doula support and placenta encapsulation. Her hypnobirthing sessions helped release any worry we had throughout pregnancy and helped us feel confident and calm during labour.
As our doula, Melanie played such a vital role in helping us have a beautiful home birth. She has such a caring heart and not only eased each surge with pressure point massage, but was very skilled in making gentle suggestions that helped progress labour as well as creating a team of support with my husband and midwives.
She is incredibly passionate in helping others and is an absolute joy.
Thanks again!

Natasha & Michael’s Birth Story
Hi Mel, we just wanted to say a massive thank you for the Hypnobirthing course and for all the help and support you have given us and for the pregnancy massage, it was amazing.
Thank you for being part of our birth journey.
My name is Melanie-Sara Barugh and Birth Love Now is where all of my passions meet, where everything I love about being alive and being a woman in the 21st Century are celebrated every day with the couples I meet and work with.
I trained as professional singer and dancer from a young age, graduating from Mountview Theatre school in 1993. I went on to perform in the West End in a number of professional shows, before deciding I wanted to use my skills and passions for voice and movement in other ways.
So I decided to combine my passion for movement with massage and have trained in a number of disciplines, including the now famous NO HANDS Massage with Gerry Pyves. My massage developed into working with the female body, particularly during and after pregnancy. It was then that I discovered Hypnobirthing, which has allowed me to incorporate my vocal talents into my work.
I look forward to meeting you on your birth journey.
