Sacred Space Hypnobirthing Brisbane

Thank you Danielle for your education! It was so powerful and valuable! You’ve definitely removed any fears and really validated my decision for a home birth and you have helped me so much to understand what is right for me and Bub, with your course I feel really empowered and ready to take on the birth and know I’ve made the right decision, no matter what happens I feel like I can advocate for myself and Bub for the best outcome and hopefully a trauma free birth for both of us. Truly thank you! 🙏🏽 💖

Such an empowering and engaging experience. Danielle holds such a safe space for connection and growth between partners.We found the two day experience extremely insightful allowing both partners to feel more confident on their journey.Danielle is a beautiful soul full of valuable knowledge teaching things every new parent should know going into their birthing experience.Cannot recommend this course enough! We loved every minute and left feeling empowered to have a voice and surrender to our next chapter.

2025: I have known Danielle since 2021 when I enquired and completed her Sacred Space Positive Birth Program. I could tell from the first moment and throughout the duration of her program that she was such a knowledgeable, passionate and supportive woman that both my husband and I instantly felt lighter, understood and safe with. This led to joining Sacred Space’s Mama’s Circle in 2022 run by Danielle once my baby was born and Danielle created a space that allowed for all women to be seen, heard and held in their matrescence. She was able to bring a wonderful group of women together for six-weeks however we continue to speak daily and see frequently to catch up and celebrate.Over the past couple of years, I had continued to stay in touch with Danielle who was an ongoing support through both joy and loss, and when I became pregnant again in 2024 it was a no brainer for my family to immediately reach out to Danielle to have her share in our joy and most importantly to have on our team. This pregnancy was not as smooth sailing as we had first hoped, however, with the numerous changes of circumstances that my pregnancy faced Danielle was our constant calm, support and guidance through weathering this storm. She is a woman in this space that I can wholeheartedly say is in it for all the right reasons and she truly does put the birthing woman’s needs at the center of her care; including knowing when to outsource to other professionals and birth workers when it was required.To have such invaluable support during this pregnancy and my impending birth has truly made all the difference in not only what I believe will be the most positive birth, but also a wonderful and positive pregnancy experience even in the face of the obstacles that came about. If you are looking for a trusted, supported, and informed woman to walk alongside your pregnancy and/or birth my family could not recommend Danielle any more highly and we will forever be grateful to have had her as part of our journey over the past four years in multiple roles that she at Sacred Space offers.2022: Danielle was absolutely amazing. She was warm, super knowledgeable, honest, open and created a space to make me feel empowered about my birth journey. My husband and best friend joined me and found the sessions equally amazing. We learnt so much about birth itself as well as how to have a beautiful birth experience. I feel much more prepared for what's ahead and feel supported going forward.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Danielle! From the moment we connected, she brought such a calming and reassuring presence to my pregnancy journey. She was always available to answer my questions, offer guidance, and provide emotional support when I needed it most.During labor, she was an absolute rock—helping me stay focused, relaxed, and confident every step of the way. Her hands-on techniques, soothing words, and unwavering encouragement made all the difference in my birth experience. I truly felt empowered and supported the entire time.Even after delivery, Danielle continued to check in, and our debrief session was so helpful in processing my emotions post-birth. Her kindness, knowledge, and genuine passion for what she does make her an incredible doula. I highly recommend her to any expecting parents looking for compassionate and knowledgeable birth support!Thank you, Danielle, for being such an invaluable part of my journey! 💕

My husband and I attended Danielle’s two day program and found it incredibly valuable! We learnt a lot and feel much more comfortable going into birth. Danielle is a great presenter - the two days were highly engaging!

Danielle has been an incredible support for my pregnancy and postpartum experience/journey.My partner and I invited Danielle into our home for a private Hypnobirthing class. We cannot thank her enough for the information she gave to us during these sessions. I was very anxious and quite disappointed with the lack of information I was receiving from GP and Midwife visits. I am so thankful that Danielle took away these anxieties with all of the knowledge she delivered.Throughout my pregnancy I saw Danielle for the most incredible Kahuna massages. I highly recommend having one during your pregnancy and postpartum. She is very accommodating with times and her availability.Danielle also connected me to a group of beautiful mums through Mother’s Circle. Each week, Danielle had prepared beautiful sessions for us mums and created a very safe, welcoming space.I am forever grateful to have found Danielle. She is truly amazing.

Danielle was amazing, really helped us and specifically allowed me to be there for my wife in any capacity required by taking on all the other tasks that would have distracted me from it. Her presence allowed for a calm, stress free home birth of our daughter.

I have nothing but positive things to say about Danielle. I wish I could rate her higher than a 5.I initially reached out to her to book her as a doula when I was looking at changing from the private system to the public for my VBAC at 30 weeks pregnant. Our initial conversation saw me outline my entire history and explain WHY I wanted the support of a doula. She queried if I'd be open to homebirth as that would give me the best chances of success. I was, but assumed I was too late in my pregnancy to book a midwife. Danielle made some calls and found a beautiful midwife that we ended up booking with.Through the rest of my pregnancy Danielle worked hard to foster a great relationship between us, not an easy task considering how far along I was in my pregnancy. Through discussions she got to really know me, deep down, and from there was able to figure out how to best support me in my birth.My birth was amazing, and while I was "in the zone" the majority of the time, when I did look up, Danielle was helping my husband and sister better support me, and orchestrating things in the background, like finding ways to block out the light as the sun came up.Postpartum, Danielle continued to visit and check in, even bringing some delicious meals for our fridge. I really felt cared for and supported.At 5 weeks postpartum I started in the Mama's Circle that she was running. Unlike other mothers group, Danielle's Mama's Circle is about the moms, how we're growing and changing, our struggles and learnings. This circle continued for 6 weeks, allowing the participants to form deep and meaningful relationships which I'm sure will continue for years to come.Danielle, thank you so much. If it hadn't been for you, I wouldn't have had the beautiful homebirth that I did, and I'm so grateful to you.

Danielle’s hypnobirthing course was fantastic. I had already read books and listened to many podcasts but was still able to take so much away from her course. Most importantly, my husband and I left feeling positive and confident.

My partner and I undertook the hypnobirthing course with Danielle and we were so glad we did! To say we felt a little lost and bewildered about what to expect with our first birth, is an understatement. We knew we wanted a natural birth, but had no idea what it would take to make this happen. Danielle talked us through so many aspects of birthing that we had no idea about - including how the healthcare system works. We felt so much more equipped and ready for our birth after this course, so we would highly recommend it to all expecting parents!And I'm happy to say that we had a beautiful natural birth experience and we truly believe Danielle played a key role in helping us achieve this. Thank you Danielle 🙏❤️

Danielle is passionate about empowering women for their birth. My husband and I attended the hypnobirthing class. The sessions around types of intervention and what impact pharmacological pain relief has on the labour process was the most beneficial for us. It was also great to watch birth videos as part of the class and see women birth in such a strong way. I was too nervous to google birth videos! The additional hypnobirthing resources provided were great, particularly the recorded scripts and birth plan template. I did a lot of birth education prep and I’m glad we did this class as part of it.

Highly recommend Danielle's Hypnobirthing course. My partner and I were blown away by the expertise she has and feel so much more informed about child birth and what to expect when labour comes. We have left with so much knowledge, wisdom and resources to prepare us for that exciting day.Danielle is knowledgeable, warm hearted and delivers all the information with such passion and excitement it makes it easy to learn.!Thanks Danielle!

Having Danielle as our doula made all the difference throughout my pregnancy journey.She gave us incredible support, guided us so we could make informed choices for the birth, as well as taught my husband and I all the things about Hypnobirthing (such as breathing techniques, natural ways to cope with pain and how my partner could support me). She also took incredible photos of my baby's birth. Such a gift to have them to show my little one when he is older.She recommended some great professionals that were really helpful during my pregnancy and postpartum, such as acupuncture and postpartum midwife. Not to mention her pregnancy massage! It is so relaxing!I definitely would recommend her services regardless of what type of birthyou are looking for (natural or c-section).

I really appreciated Danielle’s professional, intuitive and welcoming approach. I felt well taken care of in my massage and it was clear Danielle is an expert in her field. I look forward to my next session!

Great antenatal class, really informative and interactive. Definitely worth the investment!

I had a 90 minute Ka Huna massage with Danielle and can safely say it was the best massage of my life! I have struggled to find a massage therapist that had the right mix of flow and a good pressure and Danielle was spot on. But it was more than a massage, it was an experience that enabled me to honour myself and rest deeply in Danielle’s capable hands. I was floating on a high for the whole day after. I highly recommend!

This hypnobirthing course with Danielle was incredible! So grateful to Danielle for an educational, beautiful experience with a warm, light hearted energy to it. My partner and I learnt so much and feel a lot more confident and educated about birth and all things surrounding. Thank you so much Danielle for a beautiful experience and for making women and couples feel safe and empowered. Highly recommend! Ps. loved the practise massages and acupressure points - one of my favourite parts + the snacks!!!

My partner and I had the most wonderful experience with Danielle at our classes and have felt so empowered that if it wasn’t a costly exercise to have your bubby at home we feel we are confident enough to do so. We will be having a doula at our birth and only wish we’d known as much as we do now earlier so we could have had Danielle at our birth!

Can’t recommended enough the positive birthing program course to any expecting parents. Danielle is amazing. We attribute much of our positive experience during what end up being a long labour to the knowledge and information gained from her. She makes the course interesting and puts everything in easy terms which made us feel confident about our choices and empowered to make the day our baby would arrive in this world memorable. The information gained made it easier and enable us to navigate the constant changes in our birth plan.Danielle makes herself available and is genuinely interested in contributing for you to have a positive experience so even after the course is finished you feel supported. She also gave my wife a pregnant massage a few days before delivery which she still raves about this day as being a calm, relaxing and super powerful experience.Thank you for your guidance and for helping us navigate this incredible journey. Gracie and I will always be grateful to you.

I am so so grateful I found Danielle, I cannot recommend her enough!I found Danielle via a google search, so I thought I would try out a pregnancy massage to see what she was like before jumping into her hypnobirthing classes…Not only was the massage beautiful and nourishing, her nature is so supportive and she really shows how passionate she is about caring for women on their pregnancy journey that it left me with no doubt in my mind that I would love to do her hypnobirthing classes, I wasn’t wrong!I was beginning to feel quite anxious before attending her classes at 34 weeks, I didn’t feel like I knew enough, or have a clear idea of what I even wanted. I can now say my partner & I both feel confident, empowered and excited for the birth of our baby with an array of practical tools, and a clear idea of what we desire for our birth.If you are sitting on the fence just like I was, let me reassure you this is such an investment. Birth is such a sacred experience that can be so incredible if we take the time to learn how to tap into utilising the breath, movement, hypnosis, acupressure and so much more. Every woman deserves to feel confident, empowered and excited to birth. And this is where you will receive that 💕🙏

We will be forever thankful that we found the beautiful Danielle and did the Positive Birth Program. You would have to look long and hard to find a more passionate and down to earth soul, we felt so at ease during our two days of birth education and hands on learning. It was really fun and so informative. A safe space to ask questions and connect with other expecting families. Since doing the course, I have noticed the most profound change and new found confidence in my partner, as we prepare to welcome our first baby. We now feel like such a united birthing team and so informed ahead of this new season. Will be telling everyone and anyone who will listen about this incredible course!Forever grateful, Liv + Ty x

Danielle is 1 in a million. She is so passionate about everything she teaches and preaches and puts 150% into her work and her customers. I've been getting Kahuna massage since opening and also did private hypnobirthing and it was so necessary even being my third baby! Thank you for everything you do Danielle. The world needs more woman like you 💗

Thanks Danielle, we are feeling very confident about birth since doing your course. Truly was a game changer in our pregnancy journey! Cant recommend it enough.

The best massage I’ve ever received! Danielle creates a wonderful, peaceful space and I could feel myself letting go of all the tension I’d been holding onto, I felt lighter and so relaxed. Highly recommend for yourself or a gift for a loved one.

We are so glad we spent 2 days with Danielle learning about Hypnobirthing. It has equipped us with the knowledge and confidence to birth as we want. Danielle is so approachable and guides you with great materials and even after support. Thank you Danielle!

I loved my Kahuna Massage last week. At 35 weeks pregnant, it was exactly what I needed. It was relaxing, soul-restoring, and left me feeling even more connected with my baby.

My partner and I just completed the hypnobirthing class and cannot reccomend it enough. It has given us more confidence to have the physiological home birth that we are already planning, but it also equipped us with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate and have a positive hospital birth experience if it is needed.We loved Danielle's energy and passion for empowering parents to create a positive birth experience and the gender inclusive language used throughout the course to inclused all familiy dynamics was also refreshing.

Heavenly kahuna massage with Danielle! Thank you for such a transformational experience. Highly recommended!

I received a beautiful pregnancy Hawaiian Kahuna massage from Danielle and I left feeling so nurtured, nourished and stretched in my body. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is needing some extra TLC in their pregnancy. Thanks Danielle!

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing a Ka Huna massage from the lovely Danielle and it was nothing short of incredible. For me, it wasn't just about physical relaxation, but a mental and emotional journey to release blocked emotions from the chaos of motherhood and to restore balance.Danielle made me feel safe, respected and cared for. She checked in regularly with me and it was clear she is deeply committed to to her work and craft.I left this amazing experience feeling relaxed, calm, completely centred and with a renewed sense of vitality 💜I highly recommended booking in with Danielle x

Danielle took my husband and I through her Positive Birth intensive program ahead of the birth of our first baby. The program helped to eliminate anxiety about giving birth by building up our understanding of birth physiology and the labour process, as well as our understanding of the typical medical processes and available interventions offered in hospitals. We learnt some great techniques for preparing for and getting through labour in a calm and positive way, as well as how to advocate for ourselves and our preferences if things did not go as planned. Both my husband and I felt much better prepared and ready following the class. My mindset in particular was much calmer and positive in the lead up to my labour, and we both felt the class made all the difference during my labour experience. Highly recommend for those who want to feel empowered and calm ahead of and through their birthing experience.

Highly recommend doing this class to all expecting parents, so much information and empowerment to go into labour with.

10/10 would recommend to any expecting parents, Danielle is a wealth of knowledge and experience. She has really eased any tensions we had before taking the course. Definitely feeling more confident.

Danielle's class not only gave confidence to me but also to my husband to be able to advocate on my behalf! Although the class is a group setting Danielle makes the effort to tailor information to the individual needs of each mum in the room. I couldn't recommend this class enough!

Couldn’t recommend this experience enough! Very empowering experience, for both myself and my partner.

We cannot recommend Danielle and this class enough . From the absolute get go when we enquired about the class she was so kind, helpful and knowledgeable.After spending the 2 days learning all about hypnobirthing we can now take the skills and techniques learnt and integrate them into our upcoming birth and know that we are confident and informed in our decisions we make .If you are someone nervous or feeling unsure or even just wanting to educate yourself this is Definitely a great place to find the information and confidence you will want to bring to your pregnancy /birth .

Danielle was very supportive and made me feel very comfortable. The class was helpful for my husband to understand the birth experience and how to support me through pregnancy and birth. I would recommend this program to all expecting parents

We are absolutely delighted that we decided to take the hypnobirthing class with Danielle. The amount of knowledge we gained was truly remarkable. Danielle's expertise and unwavering support provided us with a safe and nurturing environment for learning. Thanks to the program, we now feel empowered, excited, and well-prepared for a positive birthing experience. Personally, I feel much more at ease and informed about the upcoming birth of our baby, and my partner shares the same sentiments about being a supportive birthing partner. We cannot recommend this program highly enough!

We had quite a traumatic experience with our first pregnancy which ended in a loss, so it was really important for us to have a beautiful, positive experience this time round. Danielle helped facilitate that by giving us the tools we needed to achieve the birthing experience we dreamt of. My partner felt confident in his role as my support person and I felt empowered, safe and fearless. I don’t think we could have had such a magical experience had we not done this course. If you’re hesitating, don’t! I promise you it’s worth every cent and Danielle is exceptional in her knowledge and guidance.

I highly recommend the experience of Kahuna Massage with Danielle! Being myself a massage therapist and Reiki practitioner, I can tell the sequencing and technique of Kahuna Massage is one of the most beautiful, relaxing and re-balancing I've ever experienced + Danielle's energy is so grounding, nurturing and calming.

Danielle’s Ka Huna massage adds another beautiful element to the amazing services she offers. It’s a beautifully relaxing, energy lifting massage, which will leave you feeling brand new! Highly recommend 😊

If you are pregnant or are a birthing partner/support person you must do this course! You won’t be disappointed. I was intially so scared and anxious about labour, not knowing what to expect and planning on “going with the flow” (worst thing you can do Danielle explains why). Now I am feeling super excited and 100% confident! My favourite part of the course was learning my rights and how to advocate for myself with care providers (specially with inductions, episiotomy and delayed cord clamping). This course has literally changed my life, thank you Danielle!! It has given me a complete different view on labour and how I’m able to have a positive birth. Most importantly though, I love how much my partner enjoyed this course - he found it extremely informative, he feels so ready for the big day. He’s been telling his friends and clients all about it. He admits he is so thankful I dragged him along to the course ha ha! I’m feeling assured that we are going into labour as a team, I am confident he knows exactly how he can support me on the day and advocate for me when needed. Danielle is a great educator and highly knowledgeable and post course still takes the time out of her day to answer any questions I’ve had. Couldn’t recommend enough

Still on my post Ka Huna high 😍🥰Last night I had a Ka Huna massage with Danielle and it was incredible!I feel incredibly grateful to have had the opportunity to sink deep into that table and put everything aside and just rest! It was absolutely mind, body and soul nourishing! Knowing it was Danielle too [whom I’ve known for a while from the Hypnobirthing course and Sacred Circle Series] and having that connection honestly just made me feel covered the whole time like I knew I was exposed but it mostly still felt like I had a cover over me… hard to explain.. I felt safe and held.. like a warm hug💕This is the perfect massage for a mama who feels tapped out, overwhelmed, and overstimulated! 💕To Danielle - I really needed that more than you know right now so thank you so so much!! 💕 very hormonal I think and emotional the last few days so it was very much needed 💕 Thank you for such a beautiful, nourishing experience! I’ll definitely be back and I’ll be sending friends/family and clients to you for sure!Xx

I am so glad i did Danielle's hypnobirthing course. The information was so valuable, i wish i had done this course with my first pregnancy as there was so much information i wish i had known the first time round. Danielle is lovely and gives everyone the knowledge they should have going into birth. I highly recommend!

I loved the hypnobirthing course with Danielle. The course gives all the information of how to be empowered through the pregnancy and especially at the final stage. It gave me and my husband the confidence to be a team and decide what we want and when not in this journey together. We both felt good and advocate for ourself with with medical practitioners. My partner was excited to have such an active role during labour and this is kind of knowledge which everyone should have access for a better childbirth experience. Daniele was always available for any consult and info after the course and her kindness is so much appreciated ❤️I will strongly advice any mama to be for the course with Danielle, she is supportive, passionate and wonderful

I would recommend this class to everyone. It’s so, so important!! It was the best investment we made during pregnancy. The techniques we learnt also helped me so much during a very stressful pregnancy. I think my experience definitely shows that hypnobirthing isn’t just “woo woo and Birkenstocks” or for people who have an intervention free birth. jack is normally a “freeze” in stressful situations but he was so calm and confident and supported me so well, he normally is very squeamish but thanks to all the birth videos we watched in class he watched her being born with no problem. I’ve had a really, really great start to postpartum thanks to a positive birth experience, I’m super thankful I found Danielle!

We did this course as first time expecting parents not really knowing what to expect and this course was amazing to fill the gaps and way more! Danielle is super knowledgeable and is happy to go over things in more detail to make sure you understand and feel confident with your decisions. We both feel that every expecting parent should do this course and will recommend to any friends who are expecting. Thanks again Danielle, bring on the next few weeks!

We attended this course after having done an a fairly popular online pre-natal course and I can confidently say this was absolutely fantastic. The guys in the 2 day session were just as engaged as the ladies - which normally would be a fairly hard task. This is the perfect course to counter the classic line of "there's nothing you can really do as a guy", because as you'll learn there is PLENTY you can do. This is an absolute must do and I've said to a few people, I think this needs to be run in every hospital, for everyone, everywhere.Gents - if you're like me and you'retrying to work out what you can to to help and how you can advocate for your partner, instead of listening to the old guys telling you there's nothing you can do, do this course and you'll realise there is tonnes you can do to support your partner.10/10 - we've recommended to literally everyone we know who is on thr baby track!

Danielle brings a wealth of knowledge, experience and passionate when it comes to supporting women to be empowered and aware about their choices in childbirth. No matter what birth plan you have in mind or whether or not this is your first child, I am sure you will gain many benefits from attending Danielle’s classes. I can’t imagine how I would navigate this sensitive and sacred time without the knowledge she has passed onto myself and my birth partner. Thankyou, Danielle.

I can not thank you enough! Your class really helped my partner and I feel prepared for the labour and delivery.I’m not sure if you remember, but I was diagnosed with gestation diabetes. Prior to attending your class I was worried that my dream of having a spontaneous labour and a medical intervention free delivery was not possible for me. My care providers used a lot of fear based language to try and convince me that an early induction at 38 weeks was the safest option, waiting longer would increase the risk of still birth.Your classes prepared me for that exact conversation! The information that I acquired from your teachings, I was able to make an informed decision and had the courage to stand my ground and decline the induction.I went into spontaneous labour at 39 + 3 weeks and bub was born 20 hours later.I also want to thank you for the techniques you taught us. They really helped my partner and I have such a wonderful labour experience. Using the breathing technique, the soft touches and the words of affirmation, helped us stay connected throughout the entire labour process.
