My name is Olivia, I am the lucky mother of two girls, and a KG HypnoBirthing Certified Teacher since 2013.

I am a Biologist, and having worked in Cancer Research, my scientific mind is naturally attracted to what is logical, rational and evidence-based. I originally came across HypnoBirthing and the many beautiful & positive birth stories from HypnoBirthing parents. Despite the unappealing name, both my husband and I attended the course and were won over by the logic of it.

I went on to having wonderful waterbirths for both my daughters in 2012 and 2015, and having such a positive birth experience made us bond strongly and prepared us better for parenthood. This is not just my personal experience, but that of the many HypnoBirthing families I've met and taught since.

I was so grateful for all I had learned that shortly after welcoming our first baby I decided to train to become a teacher in order to share this wonderful approach with other families.

I am passionate about the journey to motherhood, as I believe a gentle and safe birth not only means that a happy & healthy baby is born, but also confident & empowered parents.

I am a hypnotherapist and used self-hypnosis during the birth of my first child.  I found it so incredibly powerful that I decided to go further and train in hypnobirthing so that I could provide women with even more benefits.

I want every woman to have the best possible birth she can.
