Hypnobirthing Kent - Teachers' Directory
Teachers
I am Katy. Mum to Maggie, my spirited and sassy daughter born in June 2016 and Jasper, my firecracker son born just 18 months later on New Year’s Eve 2017. My husband Chris and our fur baby, Little Bear complete our family. We live in Tunbridge Wells.
We were lucky enough to stumble across hypnobirthing in early pregnancy with Maggie. Prior to that, I knew nothing about birth other than what I’d seen on TV! Since then, I have lived and breathed hypnobirthing and I am still applying the skills I learnt to this day as a Mother. I can honestly say, hypnobirthing changed my life. Every parent deserves to have a positive birth experience, which is why I decided to retrain as a hypnobirthing teacher after Maggie was born.
I am a certified KGHypnobirthing teacher and founder of The Birth Thing. I feel strongly that we aren’t taught enough about birth and how our bodies work from a young age and I want to be a part of the movement to help change that. Without the education that hypnobirthing gave me about my body and birth, I believe I would have a very different perspective.
I am fully trained clinical and cognitive hypnotherapist and enjoy aiding people with their wellbeing; my passion really does lay with helping people build confidence and find I have been really fortunate to work with adults and children. I am now very excited to have added working with mums/dads and their babies too.
My training:
Diploma in Clinical Hypnotherapy
Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy
KGHypnobirthing Diploma
USUI Earth Light Reiki Teacher
VCTC Body Massage

My name is Deborah Harris and I live in Ashford, Kent with my husband and two children, Jake and Annie.
In 2011 I qualified as a Counsellor and Psychotherapist which led me to work in a Primary School. I adore my job - it is a privilege to support families and to be a part of a school community.
I have always been an advocate of women's rights and found more and more that I was interested in being part of something which helps support women.
KGHypnobirthing empowers women to make choices which are based on information - rather than assumption - and I am very proud to be part of the KGH family.

Hi, I'm Sarah and a-side from co-creating my two little humans, Hypnobirthing has been the most amazing thing I have ever experienced, It really has been the best gift I have ever given myself. Who knew you could breath a baby out? (A lot of clued up super mama's that's who).
When I'm not in the From Mum To Another's Office (any coffee shop in Sevenoaks) I fill my days by ferrying the wildlings around and taking in my beautiful surroundings with the pooch.
So come along to one of my classes, bring the bump and I'll bring the biscuits xx
I live in Tunbridge Wells, you may spot me - I’m the one with two blue-eyed redheads, Freya and Harry, usually running in two different directions. At any one point I know exactly where one of them is.
I enjoy reading, love travelling and keeping fit. I try and practice reformer pilates, yoga and relaxation as much as possible. I am also lucky enough to love what I do!

I am a happy mum of three and a self confessed pregnancy and labour O'Holic. My passion for antenatal care has been paramount in creating Bloom Hypnobirthing, something that I pride myself and the business on.
Outside of Bloom I love to learn - I'm always reading!! I also am a huge CrossFit fan and when I'm not teaching courses, playing mum or maid I'm at the gym.
Nutrition also plays a huge part in my role as a practioner and am a qualified Nutritional Therapist - you can be sure to have some tasty treats to try at one of my classes.
Overall I'd say my mission is to empower women (and men) to feel confident, happy and full of self worth when it comes to making the right decisions for themselves and their babies - whether that be what food they are eating, or creating a positive birth experience.
I am a qualified practicing midwife and a mother of 2. I live in beautiful Kent and strive to enjoy the wonderul countryside surrounding me.
I first came to hypnobirthing during my second pregnancy after experiencing a birth that left me feeling tired and questioning my capabilities as a birthing mother. I sought an answer and methods of giving birth that would offer me more control over my circumstances, knowledge and help me to feel more empowered. Hypnobirthing seemed to offer me all of these tools and more.
After much reading and research I decided the best way for me to fully utilise hypnobirthing was to book myself onto a course. To say it changed my outlook on pregnancy and birth is an understatement; my whole birth plan changed. I gave birth at home in a birthing pool in the middle of the day using essential oils, touch and the support of my amazing partner and two NHS midwives. As I sat nuzzling my newborn, I fondly remember my midwife saying my birth was “the most relaxed” she ever experienced. It was truly life changing. You can read my full birth story here.
My birth left me awed and empowered at the capabilities of women and how truly amazing our minds and bodies are. I wholly believe that hypnobirthing offers women a way to take control of their pregnancy and labour and offers them the opportunity to look back and feel positive about their birthing experience.
Having previously worked in education and child development, I see hypnobirthing as a natural extension of my path from pregnancy to birth and beyond. I have supported women postnatally through breastfeeding counselling and as a babywearing peer supporter for the local Sling Library, as well as supporting new mums after they have given birth in understanding what babies need, why and how to feel confident in your abilities as new parents. My other interests include practicing yoga, reading, upcycling furniture and taking my lovely mini schnauzer Morris for walks.
I look forward to meeting you on the course!

Why Choose a Hypnobirth?
Hypnobirthing and the use of hypnosis is becoming increasingly recognised as an effective method for giving birth as it helps the mother have a far more rewarding, relaxed and natural birthing experience than she may ever have thought possible. Not only that, but the baby is far more relaxed too as she has not felt any of her mother's stress or anxiety through the birthing.
