I have been a nurse and midwife for over 40 years making the move into education 5 years ago. I am currently a senior lecturer in midiwfery at Anglia Ruskin University and still work clinically as a midiwfe at Peterborough City hospital. I have been passionate about the promotion of normal birth my whole working life and was instrumental in creating the midiwfe led unit at Peterborough with a fellow midwife. Whilst it won't promise you a perfect birth KGH offers strategies that can help empower women and their families to take control of their pregnancy, labour and birth.Within hypnobirthing there are many techniques and strategies that are equally useful for dealing with the stresses and strains of everyday life. My other great passion is holistic therapies. When not working I have my own buisness which offers a wide variety of treaments from massage to bridal hair and make up.
To become a recognised member of the KG Hypnobirthing, all of our practitioners have been through an assessment in order to determine their expertise and professionalism. Once it is established that they meet our high standards, they are then invited to join.
Each member is skilled in at least one of the different methods for teaching hypnobirthing to expectant mother and is firmly committed to natural childbirth wherever possible. They have also signed up to our code of conduct, which requires they use best practice at all times and promote natural childbirth and hypnobirthing whenever they are able to.
Hypnobirthing has long been acknowledged as an effective method of childbirth as it is beneficial to both mother and baby. KG Hypnobirthing continues to increase understanding of how it works, thereby making it a natural choice, and we have more information about hypnobirthing here.
