My husband and 2 daughters have lived in the growing community of Cambourne since 2000.

I  have worked as a birth and postnatal doula since 2009, I hold a level 5 foundation degree in Antenatal and postnatal education, am a qualified NLP practitioner specialising in the 3 Step Rewind technique , I  trained wtih BabyCalm and the school of Babywearing and have completed lots of online learning modules with the University of Warwick. All of which has helped me support many families through pregnancy birth and their early parenting experiences

I am keen and excited to be running hypnobirthing sessions currently online via Zoom to small groups or in a more private one to one setting.  Enquiries through my facebook page CamBirth Support or email.

I am Katie a UK based qualified Hypnobirthing teacher. After learning and practicing Hypnobirthing during my own pregnancy I became passionate about sharing the incredible techniques which help remove the fear that often surrounds birth.

I therefore trained to become a Hypnobirthing teacher myself during my maternity leave! ​

During my own labour my midwives commented on how serene I was and that is all thanks to Hypnobirthing! I would love to empower YOU with this same knowledge and practice.

Mother, wife, retired nurse, midwife and health visitor - now Hypnobirthing Instructor, Hypnotherapist and Doula. I am also a Pregnancy Massage Therapist and Certified Baby Massage Instructor..

I aim to support mums and partners to have a positive, calm birthing experience wherever that is and whatever it looks like

Hello, thanks for stopping by to find out more. I'm Emma Anderson-Brown, a Hitchin based mum of one. I founded Fuel for Mama following my own positive birth experience using hypnobirthing.

I was petrified of childbirth until I tried hypnobirthing. I was surprised when it made me excited to give birth. Futhermore, I had smooth natural birth as I allowed my body to do it's thing.

I was so astonished at how I took it in my stride, I wanted to share this with others. As a result, I trained in Hypnobirthing under Katherine Graves, author of the Hypnobirthing book. My training is accredited by the Royal College of Midwives and as a result, I have a diploma in hypnobirthng. Katherine is largely credited with being responsbile for bringing hypnobirthing to the UK.

All people want to do is tell pregnant women horror stories. My mission is to reach pregnant women, and let them know great birth experiences exist. Because of this I champion positive births and want to make this mindset approachable for everyone. Consequently, my Hitchin hypnobirthing classes empower women to have better birth experiences.

I also run a popular baby & toddler group in Hitchin. I meet so many new mums and hear many varied birth experiences. Many mums or mums to be are dubious about hypnobirthing, considering it to be ‘new age’ and ‘a bit hippyish’. Therefore, when I created Fuel for Mama, I wanted to offer a dynamic approach to hypnobirthing and birth preparation. I aim to appeal to even the most pragmatic and skeptical. Most importantly my ethos is to be accessible, supportive but also have some fun.

I also love bringing people together. What I dislike is when it feels patronising or forced. Parents need support. Creating a local network of friends is a great way to get this. Just having a few other local mamas who you can chat to, can have a huge impact on wellbeing. Knowing someone else understands what you're going through can fuel you. The Fuel for Mama course connects like-minded people with shared interests. It facilitates conversation and getting to know each other in a natural way.

While my courses are based in Hitchin, I am happy to travel to you and cover Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Essex, Buckinghamshire and London
