I’m Tahnee Knowles DipHb(KGH) the founder BUMP & MIND Hynpnobirthing and Bump & Mind Retreats. I am based on the Isle of Wight where I live with my husband, son and 2 fur babies. 

Very early on in my pregnancy I stumbled across hypnobirthing. After researching the benefits I realised the importance of a mindful pregnancy and positive outlook on birth itself. During my maternity leave I found myself itching to offer the same experience to other expectant parents.

​

I used hypnobirthing techniques throughout my own pregnancy and labour and was in awe of how confident and excited I was about something that used to cause me such anxiety and fear. 

​

I have since trained as a hypnobirthing teacher and use the renowned KGH training programme with my clients. KGH is a Royal College of Midwives accredited and the original UK Hypnobirthing course.

Congratulations on your pregnancy! I’m Cileia and I teach hypnobirthing classes in SE London and beyond. I used hypnobirthing twice - once in hospital, and once at home, so I know how effective it is for every kind of birth. I’d love to help you create a calm and comfortable birthspace, no matter whether you choose to give birth in hospital, in a birth centre or at home.

I used to coach video artists and creators, helping them to birth their new creative ideas, now I teach couples how to birth their babies! I live with my two wonderful sons and my husband in southeast London. After helping a few friends prepare for their births, and realising how rewarding it was for me, and how valuable it was for them, I decided to train as a hypnobirthing teacher with KGHypnobirthing.

My style is down to earth: I want to make you feel at ease no matter what your background or lifestyle is. I'm here to help you release your fears around birth as well as the pressure to have the perfect birth. There is no such thing - but for me, my births were the most empowering, transformative and beautiful events of my life, and I want you to truly love your birth too. I base my teaching on the principles of mindfulness but you don't need to be a yogi to benefit from it: together we’ll create a birthspace that is just right for you. My aim is to give you the tools to have a positive birth experience that will enable a joyful beginning to life as parents, all in a personal, relaxed environment with plenty of freshly baked cookies and tea.

I am a midwife working in one of the busy London hospitals. I am also a breastfeeding counsellor. Deeply passionate about human rights related to pregnancy and birth, I believe all women can approach birth without fear and feeling in control of their mind and body.

My love of hypnobirthing began when I used these techniques to birth my daughter. I found it to be a truly magical experience and overwhelmingly empowering. I felt in control, fearless and learnt how to tap into and follow my true instincts. The hypnobirthing techniques helped to make me calm, relaxed and taught me how to stay in the zone for a focused and controlled birth. I was so impressed by what I was able to achieve by working on the power of the mind alone, that I decided to train in KG Hypnobirthing; allowing me to empower other women and their partners.

After the birth of my daughter, Vega; I discovered baby massage and baby yoga. These techniques helped me with the bonding process, my confidence as a mother grew and I got to share experiences with other new mums.

I am a mother of one based in East London. I run Bump Stretch Move, a company focused on educating women and their partners about birth. I combine KGHypnobirthing with Pilates, fitness and massage to help women stay strong through pregnancy and recover well postnatally. 

I used KGHypnobirthing during my own pregnancy to overcome my fears around birth. I didn't realise it would also teach me so much about my body and birth, which I was not being taught through other antenatal courses. This inspired me to train as an instructor and help others overcome their fears and understand their bodies. 

Bump Stretch Move offers a holistic approach to pregnancy, child birth and postnatal recovery. My Hypnobirthing courses focus on developing relaxation techniques in preparation for birth, understanding the mechanics of the body and how to move well during pregnancy and in labour, and how to work with your hospital team to get the birth you and your partner want. 

My name is Lauren and I live in East London with my husband. Previously to becoming a KGHypnobirthing teacher I worked in education and with children with special educational needs and their families. I want to empower women to have autonomy over their bodies and to create a positive birth experience for them and their baby.

My hypnobirthing story started over two years ago when I was pregnant with my first baby. Until this point in my life all I had heard was that childbirth was  painful, dangerous, and a risky business. I was convinced that being pregnant and giving birth was one of the few miracles in life that we get to experience, so why shouldn’t it be experienced positively?

From my academic background in Social Anthropology I believed that our reality was socially constructed. If we are told over the years and through mass media that childbirth is painful then we will believe and perpetuate this reality. So with a little help from Google I came across some fantastically positive birth stories. It was so refreshing. The one thing they all had in common was Hypnobirthing. So at my next appointment I asked my midwife about it and to my surprise she was very supportive and said my hospital offered a KGHypnobirthing course. I looked no further and signed up immediately.

My husband and I proceeded to practice and then use hypnobirthing successfully for the birth of our son almost two years ago. Since his gentle and calm entrance into this world we became strong advocates for hypnobirthing. However, reactions to our positive birth story were not quite what we expected. Many of our friends and family found it odd that we could speak so positively about something that is traditionally presented more negatively. Some dismissed us as soon as they heard ‘hypno’ thinking we were trying out some sort of new fad, not knowing how much scientific and physiological grounding there is in hypnobirthing.  These reactions spurred me on to wanting to change the rhetoric around birth and take a more active role.

I since trained as a hypnobirthing teacher with Katharine Graves, the only hypnobirthing course accredited by the Royal College of Midwives. I am now a qualified KGHypnobirthing teacher and I'm ready to spread the message.

I hope that through teaching and supporting other women and their partners that we can change the rhetoric around birth together. We can start looking forward to our birth experiences and begin parenthood positively. 

I’m Lizzie, mum of one and registered KGHypnobirthing practitioner. Having previously worked as a Primary School teacher and with a degree in education, I understand and appreciate the huge importance education holds in our lives. Being able to educate and work with couples embarking on the most important, challenging, exciting and special time in their life is a real privilege.

I gave birth to my son in 2017 and had always been terrified at the prospect of it.  I knew in order to be able to get through it, I needed to prepare myself. I signed up to a hypnobirthing class and it was the best thing I could have done. I learnt how my body worked and began to understand that it and baby knew what they needed to do and so was able to start putting my trust in them.

I went from being terrified to being genuinely excited about giving birth. I was prepared, knew what I needed to do and wasn’t afraid that things might not go quite as we had planned. It was this confidence and determination that helped me when things didn’t quite go to plan. I have first hand experience of the difference hypnobirthing can make to your pregnancy, labour and beyond and couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

The kind of birth you want is a truly personal thing and no one woman is the same. I will work with you and your partner to prepare you for the birth that is right for you

I'm Andrea Halvorsen. I’m a qualified KGHypnobirthing teacher, trained on a course recognised by the Royal College of Midwives, and laboratory technician with several years experience in clinical laboratories. I’m a science person, that’s why hypnobirthing ticked all the boxes for me. Let me explain further: hypnobirthing is about body functions and the power that our mind has over them, I am talking about hormones, muscles and the way our bodies have been designed to give birth naturally.

I’m mother to 3 awesome girls and I’ve been through 3 different births: medicated, non-medicated but traumatic and a blissful hypnobirthing with my third. I wish I had come across hypnobirthing earlier but I am grateful that I had the chance to experience such an empowering birth. I really believe that hypnobirthing can make a difference to any birth and that every woman, baby and partner deserve to have a positive birth experience. That is why I decided to train as a hypnobirthing teacher and create Positive Mama.

I’m Kara Cox. Producer by day and Hypnobirthing teacher by night. Mother of two hypno-babies.

The mere mention of pregnancy and birth used to make me break out in a cold sweat. That was before I stumbled upon this rather mystical sounding hypnobirthing. I did the course. Did LOTS of practise. The rest is history.

Baby number one was a swift, calm, hospital hypnobirth. Baby number two was a mind-blowing breech home birth.  Thanks to hypnobirthing I’ve turned my biggest fears into my greatest achievements and I would LOVE to help you do the same.

I am a KGHypnobirthing trained teacher, accredited with the Royal College of Midwifery. I am also a trained actor and keen yogi. Both these things help me to breathe and not take myself too seriously!

I came to teaching Hypnobirthing because I did it myself and it worked. Simple as that. I had two very different births, but both times, practicing Hypnobirthing made me feel confident and in control. It allowed me and my partner to feel at the centre of the birthing experiences, making choices we understood and felt sure were the right ones for us. Although under very different circumstances both my births were extremely memorable and unforgettable experiences.

Whilst pregnancy is a period of joyful excitement, it can also be filled with fear and apprehension, and I firmly believe there are practical strategies couples can take through Hypnobirthing to allow them to enjoy and celebrate their journey towards birth and parenthood    

I'm Yetunde a qualified KGHyponbirthing teacher and a mother of two. I discovered hypnobirthing in my first pregnancy while researching everything about birth. Having always believed that women are naturally designed to birth without drugs or pain I was thrilled to find proven techniques to facilitate this. Using the breathing techniques, visualisations and affirmations I enjoyed both my births and felt empowered by the process.

Knowing that hypnobirthing really works I wanted to share this with other women and their partners.

I am a mother of two who truly believes in hypnobirthing. After my two postive birth experiences all I want to do is help other women to achieve the same.

I am a registered midwife, KGHypnobirthing instructor, former university lecturer, mother of two girls, and resident of Highams Park.

I have a first class honours degree in midwifery from King’s College London. My dissertation was on women’s experience of a diagnosis of tongue-tie. My training was at St. Thomas’ Hospital, where I currently work part-time. I had a lovely homebirth with my second daughter while I was a student.

Before training as a midwife I was a university researcher and senior lecturer in education development. I have lots of experience of qualitative research – talking to people about their experiences – in the context of healthcare and learning, and learning for healthcare practice. I had my first daughter at Whipps Cross Hospital while I was a researcher, just completing a project looking at teamworking on delivery suites.

I am a feminist and am deeply passionate about supporting women, managing expectations, smoothing the transition to motherhood and helping women to make informed choices. By teaching couples with KGHypnobirthing I aim to empower women to have a calm, comfortable and positive birth.

Hello and congratulations on your pregnancy. 

I'm Jemma Bailey a fully qualified KGHypnobirthing teacher and a hypnobirthing mother too. 

I found hypnobirthing in May 2017 when I was a very anxious mum to be, who was literally terrified of the prospect of giving birth. One of my best friends recommend I tried hypnobirthing, so my husband and I reluctantly booked on to some sessions with a wonderful teacher Jules. 30 mins in I went from 'rabbit in the headlights' to a relaxed, chilled and empowered mother to be. With daily practice and support from my husband our daughter Henrietta arrived late August 2017, after a magical birthing experience; from the moment I held her in my arms I felt empowered as a mother. 

The experience coupled with the tools I learnt in hypnobirthing have quite literally changed my life -as cheesy as it sounds, both my husband and I live a much more stress free, fulfilled life and we are calm, confident parents. 

In early 2018 I decided that I wanted to share this experience with other women and support them through pregnancy and in motherhood too, so I qualified as a KGHypnobirthing teacher and have been supporting parents ever since  

​  

I'd love to hear from you and how we can work together to empower you in achieving the right birth for you and your baby.  

Qualified nurse and midwife, interested in alternative and complimentary solutions within healthcare.

I love yoga the great outdoors and travel.

I’m Syanne! I am married to an Egyptian man and have one lovely daughter. My parents are from Ghana and Jamaica, but I was born and brought up in South London. I love going out and meeting new people. I love eating and exploring new foods and cultures. I hope to visit every country in the world!

I am a fully qualified solution focused hypnotherapist specialising in hypnobirthing. I am passionate about passing on the knowledge to empower women to have a positive birth experience - leading to a confident start for them and their babies. Over the last five years I have taught many women and their partners who have had their babies in varied settings - at home, in hospital, by caesarean. Its not about having a 'perfect' birth - it's for all births! The simple and gentle techniques really can have a profound effect on mothers, fathers and babies.

I became interested in hypnobirthing after the birth of my daughter. I had a long labour with a lot of intervention and felt traumatised by the whole experience, which put me in a vulnerable place to start motherhood. I felt that I must have had an unusually difficult labour, only to discover when speaking to other mums that my experience was pretty common and seen as "just the way childbirth is".

This seemed wrong to me on so many levels. Why was this a normal experience? Childbirth is something the majority of women will experience in our lives, it is a natural process that our bodies are designed to do. It should be something we look forward to as a rite of passage, surely it shouldn't be such a trial? And I found that it really doesn't have to be!

In my search for answers I became interested in hypnotherapy and trained at the Clifton Practice in Bristol. I then went on to specialise in hypnobirthing. 

When I became pregnant again, I had my son at home in water using the hypnobirthing techniques I had learned and I had such an amazing time. What was the difference? I felt calm, confident and in control of my experience at all times. I was able to allow my body to do what it needed to do without interference from worries and anxiety. 

This time I came out of the experience of childbirth feeling empowered and strong and it meant that I bonded easily with my baby, felt confident in my abilities as a parent and recovered quickly physically. I was able to let go of my previous birth experience and move on. 

This is why I teach hypnobirthing. I am passionate about passing on this knowledge to empower women to have a positive birth experience - leading to a confident start for them and their babies.

Since my own experience I have taught many women and their partners who have had their babies in many different settings - at home, in hospital, by caesarean. Its not about having a 'perfect' birth - it's for all births! 

The simple and gentle techniques really can have a profound effect on mothers, fathers and babies.

I am also a registered midwife in a very big, busy London hospital after originally training in Devon. 

I have worked with woman and children in many different roles.  I am very lucky to have the pleasure of supporting new parents throughout their journey as a midwife.  I am very passionate about midwifery and empowering, informing women at this momentous time and being the advocate midwives are to be for the birth that is right for each individual and their baby.

Hi I'm Rachel, a mum, wife and hypnobirthing teacher living in Walton on Thames.

I used hypnobirthing when I gave birth to my son, George and I can honestly say that birthing my baby was the most extraordinary, wonderful and empowering experience of my life. In the weeks and months following the birth I kept re-living the experience in my mind with such fond and positive memories. However, not all my friends feel the same way about their births – so I decided to train as a hypnobirthing teacher so I can help more women to have positive births.

You can read more about me at: www.calmbirthsmith.co.uk/about-me

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 first heard about Hypnobirthing when I was only 12 weeks pregnant with my first son, Soren, from two dads who were very enthusiastic. I immediately started researching Hypnobirthing and went home and told my husband about it. I couldn’t wait to learn more about this amazing technique which would enable me to stay calm and birth our baby without fear.

My husband was less convinced but said he would come along and support me. We signed up to a local class and we learnt how the body responds to stress and anxiety in labour and found out about the physiology of birth. This  was a real ‘wow’ moment for both of us. Using the hypnotherapy scripts, I was able to train myself to trust my body and my baby and believe that a calm and relaxed birth was possible. I was even looking forward to giving birth and couldn’t wait to put all our hard work into practice. I managed to steer away from negative stories and created a bubble around myself so we could prepare for the births our way. I went from ‘give me all the drugs’ to a natural birth within the space of a few weeks.

Hello. I'm Jemma, founder of Bright Births. and mum to Maya Ocean.​

Whilst pregnant with Maya, I did what every expectant mama does and researched everything there is to know about giving birth. I was terrified, but committed to doing everything I could to have a natural and positive birth. A friend recommended hypnobirthing, and having convinced my incredibly sceptical husband to get onboard, we embarked on an unexpected but truly wonderful journey.

Having had a positive and empowering hypnobirthing experience with Maya, I was so inspired that I went on to train to become a hypnobirthing teacher with Katharine Graves - this is the only Hynobirthing course to be accredited by the Royal College of Midwives. I am now qualified to teach the KGHypnobirthing course, and I am also a member of The Hypnobirthing Association.

But most importantly, I am fully committed to helping as many couples as possible have a positive and empowering birth experience.

Hi! My name is Kylie. I am a KGHypnobirthing practitioner.  

In the past I worked as a home birth doula and pregnancy massage therapist for several years.  I am now a registered midwife in a busy London hospital.

Over the years I have witnessed many women sucessfully apply Hypnobirthing to remain in control throughout labour and achieve a calm birth.

I am passionate about learning and sharing strategies and tools that can help you to be empowered through your pregnancy, labour and birth. Strategies and techniques that can support the progression of normal labour and birth.

My focus and passion is supporting women to have a joyful, empowered birth, whatever the kind of birth they choose.

I have been teaching pregnancy/postnatal yoga and childbirth education since 1991 and my classes reflect the wealth of experience I have, providing practical advice and encouragement to women throughout their pregnancies and as new mothers.

As well as teaching KG Hypnobirthing I am a qualified Yoga and Active Birth teacher and am registered with YogaBirth, the Active Birth Centre, Birthlight and the British Wheel of Yoga. I have completed the Unicef Breastfeeding Management training and I hold Diplomas in Remedial Massage and Source Breathwork. I am the mother of two boys, both born at home in water while using hypnotherapy, affirmations and relaxation techniques. I have a keen interest in complementary medicine and nutrition, particularly where it is relevant to pregnancy and labour.

I currently teach KGHypnobirthing, Yoga for Pregnancy, Birth Preparation and Post-Natal classes near Queen’s Park/Kensal Rise, close to NW6 and NW10 where I provide holistic support to women during the childbearing year. Private classes are also available.

My name is Anely Cabezas DipHB(KGH), I am the founder of Amiga Birth. I hold a Diploma in Hypnobirthing( Katherine Graves Method) so I am a proud member of the KGH family. I also have a Diploma in Clinical Hypnosis after completing a one year training with Robert Rusell PhD at TAG Academy on 2014. I am also a mother of three and always have been very passionate about childbirth and about helping and empowering other women in their journeys through motherhood.

I was born in Havana, Cuba, 34 years ago hence I am fluent in Spanish and English. I have been living in beautiful London for 14 years now and I am currently based in East London.

I believe in personal growth and in always learning something new. My family is quite central to my life and I enjoy spending time with them and going on holidays in the sun and by the sea.

It is an honour for me to help families and couples with their birth journey to make it the best possible experience ever!

I currently work as a midwife at Kingston Hospital having three years midwifery training at St Thomas' Hospital, where I gained invaluable experience and knowledge caring for a huge array of women and families. 

Prior to studying midwifery, I completed a Masters in Child Psychology and a BSc in Educational Studies with Early Childhood Studies. I am proud of my knowledge I have gained over the years and I have always admired the power of the human mind. 

I have cared for hypnobirthing mums who have experienced analgesic free births and those who have needed emergency caesareans. Each birth is unique, powerful and emotional. I have seen hypnobirthing work and I believe removing fear and negativity can make the experience of pregnancy, labour and birth a magical one. 

Hi, I’m Laura, The Holistic Doula 

I am here to support you in your personal and unique journey to motherhood. I love working with both pregnant mothers as well as with mothers and babies once their baby/ies arrives.

My aim is to offer compassionate and heart centred continuity of care to you during your pregnancy, labour and during the early stages after your new babies arrival.

I believe that the happiness and health of mothers has a huge impact on babies and in turn society. This fuels my passion for supporting women in creating awareness, empowerment, respect and positivity around birth as well as creating value around the role of the mother.

Preparation

I have a holistic outlook but I am also realistic. I have no preconceptions about what birth should look or feel like, and no bias towards the method. My aim is simply to support you and give you the tools to optimise your process whatever that ends up being.

Prior to the birth of your baby I will help you to identify your options and feel well informed and confident in your choices in preparation for labour. I can be someone that you can trust to air your concerns with and listen without judgement as you healthily explore any fears or concerns.

I teach Pregnancy and Mum & Baby Yoga as incredible tools to equip mothers emotionally, physically and mentally for pregnancy, labour and after child birth for bonding and wellbeing. This form of birth preparation cultivates connection, awareness and trust in the bodies natural intelligence. I teach movements and breath work techniques which can be effectively used in labour and practices such as relaxation, positive visualisation and mindfulness to help a mother to stay present. I bring a lot of the influence of this work into being a doula.

Additionally I organise beautiful Blessingway’s (the alternative to a baby shower) to honour a woman’s transition into motherhood. Postnatally I have trained in Closing the Bones and love to offer this beautiful ritual as part of the closing cycle post the birth of my clients babies should they so wish.

The Birth of your Baby

As your doula my aim is to enhance the labour environment by holding a space where you feel nurtured, safe and empowered to tune in.

Once in the flow of labour l will help you to get in the zone so that you can focus – offering encouragement and reminding you just what a powerful goddess you are. I will serve as a calm and grounded anchor for you throughout the varying stages of labour.

Whilst I am entirely there for you – I am not a replacement for your chosen birth partner – my support extends to them, to be their ally, and to help facilitate an empathetic, intimate and loving connection. My training in Holistic Massage means I also have some nifty massage techniques I can give you or offer your birth partner guidance on. I can offer various rebozo techniques to help support you during your labour process as well as some labour related aromatherapy.

I can come to your hospital to offer support with breastfeeding post the birth of your baby should a longer stay be required (depending on individual hospital rules).

Supporting your Transformation into Motherhood

I offer practical and emotional support during the first few weeks to ease you into parenting your own way. I can offer lots of practical assistance as well as a listening ear and a reassuring hug to help you navigate options available to you.

My role is to nurture you in this precious time, enabling as much rest and recuperation as possible so that you can give your baby the best of yourself. Perhaps allowing you time for a relaxing bath, some sleep or just simply some space.

Reintegrating you into home life could mean helping you in looking after your baby and or other little ones, assisting with feeds and nappy changes, assisting with breastfeeding, helping you to navigate new equipment, setting up your nursery, discussing various parenting methods, helping around the house, grocery shopping, cooking, making tea (cake and biscuits a necessity), running errands or even taking care of small furries.

My belief is that women are deeply intuitive about what they and their babies need. I want to help to fill you with confidence and positivity to trust your own instinctual wisdom – leaving you feeling strong and capable as you get to know your little one on the outside.

I strongly believe that birth completion is a really important part of the post natal care that a woman should receive. Should you wish to, we can take time for you to reflect on your labour so that you can move on from it positively. I offer the Closing the Bones ceremony as a beautiful tool to complete the circle.

In addition I can provide Postnatal Yoga and Holistic Massage therapy as well as many holistic post natal nurturing remedies.

It would be an honour to support you during this life changing time.

If you would like to arrange a meet up or call to get to know more about my offering please do get in touch by phone or email

I look forward to hearing from you should you feel that you would like to work with me.

Love, Support and trust. I believe every woman has the right to be supported by a friend. With her birth journey and with her new family. Someone to listen to, to understand her situation and to reflect her emotions.

My name is Liat and I am a mother to 3 beautiful girls. When I had my first baby I was washed over with lots of love and care for this tiny creature. I rediscovered myself and I felt like motherhood is my job, my profession. I couldn’t wait longer and when my eldest was 2.5 years old I had my second daughter. From family of 3 we became family of 4 and after 4 years we had one more addition to our family and I became proud mother of 3.

I know that birth is an emotional experience. It is the most happy, exciting and scary moment in our life.

My offer to you is a completely exclusive ongoing support during pregnancy. I will be available for you from 38 weeks (or earlier as per your needs), face to face, texts, WhatsApp, emails…

I will do my best to make sure you feel safe and confident in any way you choose.

When it’s time, I will be entirely with you. I will help you stay calm and feel loved and support. After birth I will meet you again at your home, making sure you and your family are taken care of.

Postnatal Care, it doesn’t matter if you are a first or a third time mum, you still need support! I am offering my experience as a mum of 3, helping you and your family to bond and recover from your amazing experience.

My care will be whatever you need including breastfeeding support, cooking you hot meal, rubbing your feet and babysitting your baby so you could shower and rest.

Birth preparation I also offer birth preparation in your convenient place like your home. Some parents only need a short  session to remind them how birth starts, what to do in every stage, positions, breathing and more.

KGHypnobirthing I am excited to offer a KGHypnobirthing class. KGHypnobirthing is life changing for every woman.

I will be very honoured to help you try to get there.

I believe in good energy and a good connection.

I love to change parent’s-to-be perception of birth, whether it’s their first baby or the third. Hypnobirthing helps you to eradicate fear and negative pre-conceptions or experiences. There are far too many TV shows, films and blogs that misrepresent the experience of having a baby, giving parents-to-be a very skewed perception of birth and what to expect. I will help you take control of your birth experience, and to give you the tools to actually enjoy it - it is possible!  My job is to help take away any fears and concern that you and your partner are having leading up to your birth, and give you the ability to achieve the birth you want, and provide you with the ability to have an amazing, calm and controlled birth.

Coming across a lot of negative experiences of labour on social media while I was pregnant with my little girl made me a little apprehensive, and determined to try and not let my child birth experience be a negative one. I looked into The Active Birth Movement and Hypnobirthing to help me.  It had a profound effect, and made me wonder why more women don't know the facts about their bodies.  There's not enough positive information teaching women what their bodies are capable of, and it's so much more than you could imagine.  With Hypnobirthing knowledge is power, the more you know the more likely your birthing muscles will relax, and gently open just as nature intend. 

My name is Michelle Pearson, I am based in Homerton in Hackney, East London and became a fully qualified HypnoBirthing Practitioner in 2006,  training originally with the American Mongan Method and then updated my training with the more UK based KGHypnobirthing.  I have helped hundreds of couples achieve a calm, comfortable and gentle birth for themselves and their babies, in Hackney, Walthamstow, Forest Gate, Stratford, Leyton, Stoke Newington, Islington and beyond!

I became interested in birth after having my own two children, Ella and George who are now officially grown-ups - time has flown! My first pregnancy was thrilling, I loved being pregnant and feeling all the amazing changes taking place in my body. Ella’s birth was at home, eight hours long and although a good experience, compared to many, it was intense from the start and I didn’t really have the understanding or the tools to support myself and so it took a long time to recover physically and emotionally.  Leading up to my second birth I felt more fearful - would I be able to do it again?  It was another home birth but this time much quicker and with my body’s previous birthing experience, I was able to let go and feel the power of my body. I felt exhilarated and so proud of myself after George’s birth.

At that time, I began to realize how fearful we as women can become as we get closer to giving birth. I wanted to find a way of helping more women feel empowered and confident in their body’s natural ability. I began to dream of working in the birthing world and to be able to help women, their partners and babies have a more positive experience at this life changing time. (my grandmother was a midwife in India - perhaps it's in my genes!)

One day, whilst working in my job as a Production Manager on a women’s magazine, a chance conversation with a colleague and friend, led me to find out about HypnoBirthing. It’s philosophy and common sense approach reflected my own instinctive feelings of how birth could be and soon after I found myself training to become a HypnoBirthing Practitioner. Since then I have helped hundreds of couples have calm, confident, positive birth experiences. 

I am committed to continuously updating my skills by attending birth workshops, courses and lectures.  I have also trained with Michel Odent known for his role in promoting natural birth and water birth.  I completed my Doula training with 'Developing Doulas' in 2013 and became a recognised Birth Doula with Doula UK.

I hold a Practitioner Diploma in Integrative Hypnotherapy & Psychotherapy and a Certificate in Cognitive Behavioral Hypnosis and NLP.

I am passionate about empowering women to have the birth they want, without fear and being able to look back and have fond memories of that amazing moment. I would also support them before and after labour using my professional training in naturopathy. I have been passionate about natural remedies since the age of 12. I love the holistic approach-we are not just bodies, we are also minds and souls- and we need to lovingly take care of all three.

I am a Hypnobirthing teacher with a huge passion for helping parents to achieve a calmer, more comfortable and positive birthing experience. I have 8 years experience in teaching parents and I work all over London. I am a Psychology graduate, hypnotherapist, trained Doula and mummy of twins who I birthed naturally through using my Hypnobirthing techniques.

I have taught over 50 couples and my passion for empowering women in pregnancy, birth and motherhood only continues to grow.  

I have seen the difference that hypnobirthing makes in my own birthing experiences and of those that I have introduced to hypnobirthing. The techniques that I will teach you will give you the tools to have the positive, empowering, calm and comfortable birth that you want.

Also as a qualified hypnotherapist, I can help you focus on the fact that you are coping with the situation, get rid of the fear, tension, and pain in labour by teaching relaxation, breathing, and visualisation techniques.

Our Story ​

BirthWright was founded in 2016 by Helen Wright, an experienced teacher and mum of two, after realising that women desperately needed help to feel calm, confident and in control of their birth and postnatal recovery. 

​

Helen is an experienced KG Hypnobirthing Coach based in Wapping, East London. She is also an  Independent Placenta Encapsulation Network ( IPEN) trained  Placenta Remedies Specialist  and a  Placenta Remedies Training Instructor . 

Helen is an active volunteer in her local community: she is a registered Breastfeeding Helper with the Breastfeeding Network (BfN) and offers Peer Support on behalf of the Community Parents Project in East London. She also co-hosts a monthly  positive  birth and  parenting support group for local families. 

​

In her previous life, Helen worked as an Assistant Headteacher and  Early  Years' Leader for  over 15  years,  in primary schools across Kent and East London. 

I am a Mind-Body specialist that has dedicated the last 20 years to passionately support women and men during the family building process. I am currently part of a team teaching KGHypnobirthing in an UK hospital.

My background includes a solid experience as childbirth educator and birth and post-birth doula. In addition I am a UNICEF certified breastfeeding counsellor and I pregnancy massage specialist.

As I currently work and teach KGHypnobirthing in a hospital setting, I have the privilege to continuously witness the power of this mind-body technique to help women and their partners discover the perfection of the birthing process, address their concerns about it and achieve a positive birth experience.

My training in psychotherapy (Gestalt and Body Oriented therapies) provides me with the skills needed to support women who feel especially anxious about birth or who have had a previous traumatic experience.

I bring to my Hypnobirthing classes my knowledge of the powerful mind-body connection as well as my counselling skills to offer women and their partners emotional and practical support that responds to their personal needs and circumstances during pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period.     

My name is Lesley and I live in Haslemere, Surrey with my husband Jeremy and some of my 5 children. The children range in age from 27 down to 17 (4 boys and 1 girl).   The whole period of my childrens' childhoods has flown past and I would not have missed any of it. ( Very fortunately I have not had to).  Their births were varied and apart from a caesarean section for my first son who was breech, then a forceps delivery for my second child as he was slightly stuck, the other 3 children were born very easily and with no other birthing difficulties.  Having watched them grow up (they are all adults now) they are now an absolute delight to me and I enjoy their company as fellow adults as much as I do any of my best friends.

Long before I had my own children I wanted to work in the neonatal world but it wasn't until 2008, when my children were old enough, that I had time to do an Access to Nursing & Health Professions course at Guildford College, and my aim back then was to become a midwife. I heard about Doulas for the first time just after I finished my course in 2010.  After some research I understood that their ethos sat very comfortably with my own belief that childbirth is a natural process which, given the right  tools and emotional suport, most women will come through with beautiful memories of a very primitive and wonderful experience to treasure all their lives. As a recently qualified KG Hypnobirthing teacher I now have the perfect tools to teach pregnant couples how to have the best (and sometimes pain-free) birth possible for them.  The sense of achievement for a woman is extraordinary and this should be available to all women; so it is with this belief that I feel that to be able in this part of a couple's journey into parenthood is an amazing privilege.  I can offer you support in the form of  practical help, emotional support (you may need both in varying amounts) and hypnobirthing techniques that can be also be used as coping skills in other potentially stressful situations throughout life.  I also offer non-judgemental advice during the build-up to the birth and in the immediate post-natal period, as you adjust to your beautiful new addition.   

When I gave birth to my little boy Sydney in 2015 it was one of the most empowering moments of my life. I had a short, calm and comfortable birth - all thanks to the KG Hypnobirthing method. I am passionate that all women should be able to achieve a great birth that they can look back on with fondness, which is why I became a teacher myself.

I live in Dartford with my baby and husband, Matt.

Hello, I'm Beth, mum of two, KG Hypnobirthing teacher and mindfulness coach. When I fell pregnant I had the split voice in my head. On the one side I had quiet whispers that birth could be a positive experience, but this was drowned out by loud worries that I wouldn't be able to cope and fears about all the things that could go wrong!

I discovered Hypnobirthing through my sister in-law who had a silent, swift and beautiful homebirth, followed by Champagne on the sofa - really! Needless to say I was thinking 'I want some of that' and so immediately signed up.

Hypnobirthing absolutely transformed my anxiety into self-belief and I experienced two of the most empowering experiences of my life. But after baby arrived I realised I wasn’t emotionally ready and my anxiety kicked in. And this is when I discovered mindfulness, which transformed my thinking, parenting and relationship with myself in a hugely positive way.

I’m absolutely passionate about helping women to believe in themselves for birth, to learn how to listen to their powerful intuition, to be kinder to themselves in motherhood and to experience the benefits of thinking in a more present and positive way.

I support women right up until their babies are born and offer post-natal mindfulness classes to continue the circle of support post-natally. I really care about your experience and believe in the power of women supporting women.

Through years of working with families as a practicing midwife, I have seen first hand how information and birth preparation can enable a family to experience birth in a positive light. I have advocated positive imagery around birth and encouraged women to feel in control and prepared for labour and birth in my work as a midwife.  Completing my hypnobirthing training felt like a natural progression to enhancing my relationship with the families I care for.  I feel Hypnobirthing has become an extension of my midwifery skills.

I am passionate about empowering people to achieve a birth that they can be happy with, regardless of the path that it takes. Hypnobirthing has given me the tools to be able to ensure that I can do this effectively for all the families I meet. This knowledge and skills combined with my compassionate, caring reassuring nature has put me in good stead to support families through this life changing journey of becoming a new family!

Hi, I am Sonia and I live in north London. I am originally from France and I have been in London since 1998 and I love it here. I was lucky to have my children in London where there are many birthing options available.

I have two lovely children born in 2007 and 2008. On both occasions I had planned to give birth at home. After a long labour at home my daughter was born in hospital and my son was born in a beautiful calm and relaxed, home water birth.

Previously, I had been working in art galleries for six years and worked on two amazing projects, but after the birth of my daughter in 2007 I changed my career path. Breastfeeding my own daughter highlighted to me, not only how rewarding it was but also how challenging this period can be for new mothers. I wanted to provide the support that I had been lucky enough to have and so invested a lot of time learning more about breastfeeding. I completed training, volunteering and worked as a breastfeeding consultant on postnatal wards and in the community. Most recently I have worked as a private lactation consultant.

My work in postnatal wards inspired me to study birthing. I took a doula course with Michel Odent at the end of 2013. In 2014 I trained to be a birth companion. At a doula conference, I got inspired to train as a hypnobirthing teacher.

I trained with Katrine Graves in 2015. That was a great eye opener for me, and a revelation. It was a very important piece of the puzzle in providing completed support and care to expectant mothers.

My name is Param. I am a KG Hypnobirthing Practitioner and a hypnobirthing mother of two.

I offer hypnobirthing courses in North East London and Essex, including Stratford, Woodford, Ilford, Chigwell, Loughton and beyond.

It was six months into my pregnancy when a very good friend told me about her positive hypnobirthing experience, and I was so overwhelmed by her story, I just had to find out more.  My husband and I attended KG Hypnobirthing Classes, and for us, everything  made such perfect sense.  The birth of our baby was a truly empowering and spiritual experience.  Since then, we have had another moving hypnobirthing experience with the birth of our second daughter. 

Hypnobirthing has been such a positive force in my life.  For me personally, it's not just been about the birth of my babies, it's been about a personal shift in the way I view so many things in life now. I believe that Hypnobirthing has something positive to bring to everyone, which is why I am so passionate about teaching it now.

Prior to qualifying as a KG Hypnobirthing Practitioner, I used to work in the City as a HR Professional.  In my spare time, I thoroughly enjoying cooking and I like to travel as much as possible.  I appreciate Indian classical music and dance, and I actively practice Yoga and Mindfulness.

I look forward to supporting you on your journey through pregnancy and childbirth.

Hi, I'm Aoife, nurse, midwife and hypnobirthing teacher. My experience, knowledge and skills from practicing as a midwife will allow me to help you prepare for you birth. Classes at The Calm Birth Collective teach you the techniques and skills for hypnobirthing but also provide complete antenatal preperation. I am passionate about my work and want to help you achieve a better birth. 

I'm a mother myself and I can easily remember the anticipation of my birth. It was one full of excitement but I was nervous of what to expect too. I found hypnobirthing to try to help me to relax both before my birth and during labour...it worked a treat! I had a 190 minute, drug free labour in which I trusted and believed in myself more than I ever before. I continued using the techniques postnatally too!

I was in awe of the techniques used and my passion for everything birth and baby that I started my journey to become a teacher.

Credentials:

KG Hypnobirthing Diploma 

Birth Bliss Accredited Doula

Aromatherapy Diploma

Reflexology Diploma (currently studying)

I passionately believe that every woman deserves to have a calm, confident, positive birth where she feels in control. I believe every father deserves to be well informed, able to act as a powerful advocate, and to feel how truly important he is to the process of the birth of his baby. I founded Good Birth to help mothers, fathers, and birth partners achieve just that.

I have a Diploma in Hypnobirthing, and am a registered KG Hypnobirthing Practitioner, having trained with Katharine Graves and completed the Hypnobirthing Teacher Training Course, which is accredited by the Royal College of Midwives. 

I am also a birth and post-natal doula, and am currently working towards my Doula UK recognition. 

I am a member of The Hypnobirthing Association. I am also a member of the Association for Improvements in Maternity Services (AIMS) and La Leche League (LLL).

Before founding Good Birth I worked as a senior Government press officer, where I advised ministers on sensitive media issues and briefed journalists on breaking stories. I have a masters degree from the University of Cambridge.

I became a KG Hypnobirthing teacher following two amazing and, dare I say it, enjoyable births.  Before my first pregnancy I was incredibly sceptical about Hypnobirthing, so I was blown away when simply listening to some CD’s helped the birthing process and me.  For my second pregnancy I decided to book a complete course, to see what a difference it could make.  As a result, we birthed comfortably and quickly at home.

My name is Edwina and as well as being mum to two gorgeous girls, I’m a KG Hypnobirthing Practitioner; ‘Birthing from Within’ Birth Preparation Mentor; Life Coach and experienced Registered Shiatsu Practitioner, specialising in pregnancy.  In a previous life, many moons ago, I was a Chartered Accountant!

As the founder of ‘Birthways’, I’m passionate about helping couples have a positive, empowering birth experience however events may unfold. 

My range of qualifications and professional experience allow me to offer you support on many levels (emotionally, mentally and physically) throughout your pregnancy. I will give you the tools to achieve the best birth for you and increase your potential of a calmer, gentler birth.  

You’ll learn ways to relax; release any fears and anxieties; build trust and confidence in your body’s ability to birth and feel fully prepared and aware of all your options.   

My passion for birth started during a postgraduate course in ‘Shiatsu for Maternity and the Postnatal Period’. This simmering passion ignited after my two amazing home births. Despite some unexpected events along the way, including a hospital visit, throughout my labour I truly felt a deep level of calm and at one with the powerful flow of nature and birth.   There’s nothing quite like that magic moment when you realise ‘I did it…We did it!!!’ The recognition that you stepped into the unknown; laboured; did what you instinctively needed to do to get through each moment and were now on the other side with your baby!  I strongly feel that my birth preparation significantly contributed to what I can only describe as a life-affirming event.  

When I’m not supporting pregnant couples, you may find me at yoga, cycling, playing tennis and being a ‘mummy taxi’ to my 13 and 10 year old daughters... amongst other things!

It’s such a privilege and joy to mentor mothers and their birth partners as they journey towards the birth of their baby and themselves as parents.  I love my role as a KG Hypnobirthing Practitioner and Birth Preparation Mentor and look forward to meeting and working with many more families for years to come. 

I came to Hypnobirthing like many Hypnobirthing teachers, through being pregnant, using it to birth and absolutely LOVING IT! 

Hypnobirthing was first mentioned to me during my first pregnancy, where I had read everything about birth (I was totally prepared for any ante-natal quiz) and took a weekly pregnancy yoga class, all in preparation for the unknown event of birth which I was secretly terrified of. My best friend who was also expecting her first child was telling me about Hypnobirthing and I thought it sounded very much like what I was doing already, getting clued up on ante-natal knowledge and relaxing, so I decided not to pursue it further.

During my labour I knew there was a better way for me, my body and baby to birth but I didn't have the tools.

When I came to my second pregnancy, I knew I was willing to invest in myself and my birth experience as they were invaluable to my wellbeing and that of my family. 

I decided to look into Hypnobirthing for myself, my baby and also my husband who wanted to be a part of the experience.

I loved the whole experience throughout pregnancy and during labour, the connection I had to my body and the process was empowering.

The sense of teamwork it gave my husband, me and our son along the journey was so important in preparing us all for the transitions and transformations that were happening. We all enjoyed the birth experience and started family life calmly, positively and empowered.

Having had that experience I knew that better birth experiences were out there and every mother and family deserved to have them. I also knew Hypnobirthing was a great tool in enabling them.

As a teacher I work positively and realistically; supporting you in discovering the birth choices that are uniquely right for you and enabling your unique positive birth. As a Birth Trauma Resolution Practitioner I am also skilled in supporting those planning a healing birth or looking to overcome previous trauma as they prepare.

I am always honoured and privileged to work with people at this stage in their lives and each birth deepends my respect and fascination of birth and how to support it for families.

I am an experienced midwife and a caseloading midwife based in Waltham Forest London.

I had set up hypnobirthing at North Middlesex Hospital and now doing private one to one and a group hypnobirthing.

we just recently run a group session in East London. 

I understand that being pregnant is a very special time of our lives, and I am so happy to be able to help families to feel confident and supported throughout their journey. 

Hypnobirthing is really a fantastic way to prepare with, and my experience so far is that it has a positive effect on labour and birth every time. I read more and more positive birth stories from my lovely couples who did Hypnobirthing with me, and I hope to receive loads more in the future.

I also work as a fitness professional, so I am familiar with motivating people, and help them to achieve their goals.

I hope I will see you in my class one day, and we can work together to achieve that beautiful birth you have dreamt of.

Warm wishes,

Mara

Hello,

I'm Sara and I set up Calm & Connected to empower parents and birth partners in all circumstances to bring their babies into the world in the most nurturing way possible.

As a hypnobirthing mother myself, I experienced an effortless feeling of calm throughout my labour, and hypnobirthing was instrumental to my positive birth experience. My background is in psychology, which is one of the underlying principles of hypnobirthing, as one of its main objectives is to help parents achieve a healthy mindset for labour. I hold a BSc in Psychology and a MSc in Applied Positive Psychology (the study of psychological wellbeing).  I am fascinated by the connection between mind and body, as well as the factors that contribute to our potential to flourish, and so immediately recognised the strength of hypnobirthing as a well-grounded and powerful approach to birth. I take an evidence-based approach and teach the techniques in a grounded and open way.

Pregnancy (and all the antenatal preparation that comes with it) is an exciting but often busy and nerve-wracking time, so in our sessions together I’ll do everything I can to make you and your birth partner feel relaxed and at home, as soon as we begin.

I look forward to meeting you!

I am a fully qualified and registered Hypnobirthing pratictioner with the Royal College of Midwives accredited KG Hypnobirthing course. I have a passion for empowering women and their partners (other half or nominated birth partner) to have the best birth possible for them.  I can assist you in achieving a calm and relaxed birth where you are in control. I am also a mother of two hypno-babies and am passionate about more women gaining access to information that will help them achieve a comfortable and wonderful birth experenience.

I am Mama to three boys with a background in psychology. I am passionate about birth and empowering women having had two wonderful hypnobirths myself (after a less than ideal hospital birth first time round). I am in awe of what women's bodies are capable of and believe strongly that if women and their birth partners are fully informed and equipped with the right tools, then they will have an empowering and positive birth experience wherever and however they choose to birth their baby. Nothing is more rewarding for me than helping women and their birth partners prepare for this key moment in their life.

Hypnobirthing & Pregnancy yoga classes in LONDON WATERLOO

I am qualified to teach the Katherine Graves (KGH) method of Hypnobirthing. Hypnobirthing is both logical and deeply relaxing and I am passionate about natural birth and empowering women in order for every baby to enter the world as they deserve to, in a calm and controlled manner. Birth matters. My entire career revolves around babies! I originally trained and qualified as a Nutritional Therapist with the Institute of Optimum Nutrition. I specialised in preconception and pregnancy health and additionally affilliated myself with a wonderful charity named Foresight helping couples with natural fertility and preconception care. I trained as a volunteer Breastfeeding Peer Supporter with Harrow and have since taken employment with NHS Brent who I have been lucky enough to train further with and am now a certified Breastfeeding Specialist. I completed the IAIM training course to become a Certified Infant Massage Instructor (CIMI) in 2011 and went on to train with Blossom and Berry for my Diploma in Baby Yoga which is a wonderful follow-on to complement baby massage. Most importantly, I am a mother myself. My son Noah was born in August 2010 and my daughter Robyn was born in January 2015 in a beautiful Hypno-home water birth.

Vibrance4life is all about being empowered to be the best you can be. To embrace and shine the uniqueness that is you. The KG Hypnobirthing courses I offer are all to empower you and your birthing partner to have the best birth possible for you and your baby. Please feel free to give me a call, 07779228206, to have a chat if you have any questions or to book yourself for a course. I welcome the opportunity to work with you.

I am a mother of 2 grown up and amazing sons. I am also a midwife, a KG Hypnobirthing Practitioner and a Positive Birth Movement Facilitator. My family are kind enough to allow me plenty of time and space to indulge my passion for all women and their families to have THEIR best birth possible. I live in Central London but have an undying love for Brighton, East Sussex so happily share my knowledge and passion there too. I love my vocation and love to share.

I'm a dynamic yoga teacher who initially trained in pregnancy yoga purely to feel confident in keeping a pregnant woman safe in my regular yoga classes. However the pregnancy yoga teacher training ignited a flame I didn't even know existed. Half way through the course I realised that my passion was moving in a new direction and that I could see a way to really help women during their pregnancy and birth through movement, meditation, breathing and positive affirmations.

However after a period of time teaching pregnancy yoga classes, I realised that although the sessions were helping enormously there was still something missing... every woman who went on to have a wonderful empowered birth had all done HypnoBirthing to some extent. I realised this is what was missing from my teaching. I wanted to be able to provide that missing link to all my students. I completed Katharine Graves HypnoBirthing teacher training and embarked on this wonderful journey of helping pregnant women believe in their bodies and self hypnotise in order for them to have the best birth possible.
I have had some excellent feedback from HypnoBirthing clients – whatever turn their birth took they remained calm and in control leaving them feeling empowered and positive.

It is such an honour and a privilege to be able to work with women and couples during such an important phase of their lives.

I work with single mums-to-be, same sex couples and mixed sex couples. Whatever your situation HypnoBirthing will help you to achieve a positive birth and I would love to help you on this incredible journey.

I have always found women, pregnancy, birth and babies awe-inspiring and I believe bringing a brand new little person into the world is one of the most amazing things a woman can do. I believe in your innate capacity to birth and care for your baby; you are powerful! It is my absolute pleasure to care for mums and babies and my job is to encourage you to know your own strength and capability, that which is there in all of us. Every woman has the right to feel safe, relaxed and cared for and this enables the best possible birth experience and helps with the early attachment process. I also believe every woman has the right to choose how and where she births her baby whenever possible; I support your decision, be it a home birth, birth centre or hospital. So, a bit about me...I love my job! It is a real privilege to support families on such a precious journey. I love being outside in the sunshine, reading a great book with a ridiculously huge skinny caramel latte (and the odd cake here and there...). I enjoy my "me-time" and I also love to spend time with my wonderful friends going for dinner (Fondue night, dinner parties at mine, Mexican, Diner... I'm not a foodie, honestly) and also relaxing with my wonderful partner of eight years, Steve, at home, and spending time with my family. I may be getting old as I've really got into going for a slow walk everyday lately and looking at the trees (I never thought I'd see the day!) Oh, and I love a good box-set and my wild vice is...wait for it...aromatherapy candles. Whoooooo!

I am passionate about wanting to do everything I can to help you prepare for your birth and give your baby the most serene start to life.  For more information please see www.serenestart.com

I have been teaching Yoga since 2006 and I have always been interested in the effect the mind has on the body and vice versa. My approach to yoga and life in general is through mindfulness and open-mindedness.

As a fully qualified pre and postnatal Yoga teacher I have worked with pregnant women for many years and have supported them throughout their pregnancy and in preparation for birth and beyond. 

I teach Yoga birth preparation weekends for couples as I believe birth partners play a very important role; their re-assuring presence, love and support can make all the difference to a labouring mother’s birth experience.

With HypnoBirthing I have positively expanded what I can offer expecting couples in preparation for birth. I truly believe in the power that lies within each couple and individual to experience a calm and gentle birth, in whichever way their baby is born into this world.  HypnoBirthing actively supports parents so that they feel calm and at ease throughout pregnancy, birth and beyond and many of the tools and techniques that they learn will become life-skills.

In addition, I train other yoga teachers to become qualified pre-and post-natal Yoga teachers and lecture on YogaLondon’s Pre- and Post-natal Yoga teacher training programme; a training programme I designed with Anja Brierley-Lange of YogaEmbodied.

Jean Goodliffe BA (Hons), MSTAT, ITEC, Dip Ed Antenatal Education, licensed Natal Hypnotherapy Practitioner, qualified NCT Antenatal Teacher and Birth Doula.  I am also a Reflexologist and Creative Healer specialising in pregnancy.

Experience & Specialities: 

I have worked with pregnant women and their partners for many years in the Kensington area teaching courses and giving treatments.  I hae attended a variety of births; water births and natural births in birth units, induced birth, epidural birth and ventouse birth in a labour ward. I have worked mainly in my most local hospital where my sons were born - Chelsea and Westminster; I have also worked at St Thomas', St Mary's and Queen Charlotte's.

As a midwife and childbirth educator I bring the combination of my many years experience to you, so you can learn some simple techniques that will make a difference to your birthing and parenting.

My inspiration to become a natural childbirth educator/Hypnobirthing teacher comes from my own birthing experience. After my wonderful, natural, pain-free and drug-free Hynobirthing experience, I wanted my friends and fellow women to experience the same joy and bliss of natural birth. I did my diploma in HypnoBirthing from the Hypnobirthing Centre UK (the KG method) accredited by the Royal College of Midwives, UK. I am a science graduate with a Masters Degree in Applied Microbiology which helps me understand the biology behind birthing. I also hold a Diploma in Nutrition. I hail from the corporate world of scientific publishing like Thomson Reuters & BioMed Central (Springer). I am well aware of the corporate culture; the work life and personal life balance for parents-to-be. I have designed my courses to accommodate these practical challenges of the day to day living. I am working hard to ensure every woman across the globe is made aware of this calm, safe, comfortable and delightful birthing experience for herself and her baby.

Hello, I’m Tracy, a qualified Hypnobirthing Teacher and Hypnotherapist based in North London. However, I believe my most important qualification is actually being a mum! As a parent myself, I fully understand what it means to want the very best experiences for your child right from the very beginning.

I discovered hypnobirthing only a few weeks before my son was born and in the short time I had remaining, I was able to learn some of the techniques to positively impact our birth experience. I remember wishing that I had discovered hypnobirthing sooner so I could have benefited from the full range of knowledge and techniques that it provides.

Whilst studying as a Hypnotherapist, I witnessed the wonderful ways in which people were able to use hypnosis and relaxation techniques to bring about states of calm and self-empowerment and I was determined to learn more about how this could be applied in pregnancy and childbirth. I then decided to specialise in hypnobirthing and trained under the guidance of Katharine Graves, the founder of the renowned KG Method of Hypnobirthing. I chose this particular method of hypnobirthing as it is a fully comprehensive birth education programme that is specifically designed for the UK birth system.  It is also very simple and practical for hypnobirthing mothers and their partners to fit into their daily lives.

I am truly passionate about what I do and love spreading the word about this positive and effective approach to childbirth.

Hello! my name is Sonia,

I believe "Pregnancy and Birth" is a journey to be treasured for a lifetime.

Every baby deserves the best possible start and every mother deserves the support, knowledge and tools required for her to achieve the birth she dreams of. I am passionate about the work I do because It works. It is the difference between a negative birth story or a beautiful birth memory that will be with you and your family forever.

Sharing our positive birth stories is of service to our sistershood, our daughters and their daughters! Hypnobirthing is creating a positive birth-story revolution and I am proud to be a part of it.

This course will help you to recover your innate faith and trust in your body and its natural ability to birth, without fear. It will give you a wealth of tips and tools that you will use during labour (ie. breathing techniques, sensory anchors) and after. You discover all your “Birth Rights” and choices you have for the birth of your baby.

As a Hynobirthing mom I can honestly say that doing KG Hypnobirthing was the greatest decision I ever made for myself, my little girl and my family and I look forward to sharing this work with you.

I am a Qualified State Registered Nurse, Registered Midwife, Hypnotherapist  and Hypnobirthing Teacher registered with the NMC, RCN and Hypnobirthing Association. I have over 30 years’ experience working within the NHS and private sector and I am committed to teaching expectant parents the wonders of the KG Hypnobirthing technique. As a midwife I will be able to explain some of the obstetric terminology that can confuse parents; My hypnobirthing classes will prepare parents emotionally, psychologically and physically in the antenatal period for their new baby and will empower them to question routine treatments and methods used in current obstetric practices.I am also a mother of three and only wish I had had the knowledge, skills and confidence to have been a hypnobirthing mum so I could have enjoyed the natural process of childbirth.Please read my website for information on course dates and my credentials as I look forward to introducing you to the wonders of Hypnobirthing so you can achieve a more relaxed, gentle and comfortable birth.

“Hypnobirthing is the most wonderful empowering experience that parents can bestow upon their unborn baby, bringing them into the world gently, calmly and naturally". I run group or individual sessions which are broken down into practical and theory , there is plenty of laughter and I am very approachable and friendly and have many "Hypnobabies in London and Bedfordshire area". I believe in evidence based practice and I continually strive for excellence and attend  KG Hypnobirthing refresher courses and link with local antenatal services including the NHS and NCT, giving talks and attending active birth workshops. If parents remain skeptical please try a taster hour session which answers many of your Hypnobirthing question's and parents can experience a relaxation session !

I live in Peckham with my husband James, son Joseph (5 years old) and daughter Iris (2 years old). 

I am committed to doing everything I can to help you experience the empowerment of a gentle and natural birth with Hypnobirthing.

Hypnobirthing is logical, simple, practical… a very effective and complete antenatal education. I will teach you invaluable hypnobirthing techniques in a relaxed and supportive environment; very informative with lots of laughter too!

I am also an advanced Neurolinguistic Programming therapist (NLP). This is essentially a form of life coaching which uses tools to unlock unhelpful behaviours, thought patterns or habits, replacing them with more positive and helpful ones!

NLP gives me the expertise to provide not only the core Hypnobirthing techniques but also to offer tailor made tools and exercises to help parents–to–be get the most from my course. For example, if a mum-to-be says she simply don't know if she's physically or mentally able to have the birth she wants I have exercises to help her believe in herself.

I offer ongoing support after the course has finished and am on hand to help you and your partner get the most from your practice.

I am the mother of two children and I have been a childbirth educator since 1995, having trained with the NCT.

I have prepared thousands of couples for labour, birth and early parenting in Battersea, Clapham, Twickenham and the surrounding areas.

On a personal note, I benefitted enormously from Hypnobirthing while preparing for the arrival of my second child. The birth was fast and completely natural; it was a joyous experience, to be cherished forever.

I hold a Diploma in Antenatal Education, a Diploma in Hypnobirthing and I am a member of the Hypnobirthing Association. I thoroughly enjoy putting Katharine's training into practice.

KanBe Yoga is taught by me, Kandy; I teach privately and run group classes in London.Having spent years practicing, learning and, ultimately, teaching yoga; I have also spent many years in the corporate world. This experience helps to balance my teaching as I understand the pressures and demands of modern Western life. I am incredibly passionate about yoga and truly appreciate the balance that yoga and holistic therapy can bring to body, mind and soul.

Qualified Hypnobirthing teacher, member of the Hypnobirthing Association and mum of two

Gill completed her teacher training with Katherine Graves of the hypnobirthing association, the woman who is credited with bringing hypnobirthing to the UK, before founding Simplyborn. Her aim is to offer professional hypnobirthing courses to professional women and their partners, bringing a sound, scientific and grounded approach to what many people may originally dismiss as an airy-fairy discipline. Gill is committed to helping make your experience of pregnancy and childbirth a positive and empowering one, and at this very special time in your lives  is keen that you enjoy the courses, hopefully having a few laughs along the way and leaving feeling energised and confident.

Gill became interested in hypnobirthing when pregnant with her second child. Due to a previous bad experience she turned to hypnobirthing having heard about the benefits it can offer both during pregnancy, through labour and beyond. ‘Whilst maintaining a healthy scepticism I decided to pursue it as an option for a natural, calm birth. I also thought it might help allay some of my fears and anxieties around my pregnancy.’ After reading  several books on  hypnobirthing  I totally bought into the theories and practices, and the idea that we in the west have been conditioned to expect childbirth to be painful, whereas in many cultures this simply isn’t the case. Childbirth is often over-medicalised and subject to a myriad of monitoring and interference that often is totally unnecessary. ‘  After undertaking  the hypnobirthing course herself  her daughter Emilia was born peacefully, swiftly , painlessly and calmly .

Gill lives in Chalfont St Peter, Bucks and offers courses to couples in the surrounding area of South Bucks. She is fully trained and insured to teach hypnobirthing courses.

I am Dr Alice Len a qualified HypnoBirthing teacher with a Diploma in HypnoBirthing (HB) from the HypnoBirthing centre.  I was instructed the Katharine Graves method by Katharine herself, which is a Royal College of Midwives accredited method and I am registered as a teacher at the HypnoBirthing Association website (where only qualified teachers can be registered.).  I also have a BSc Class 1 Honours and PhD in Biomedicine and have been in the field of Biomedical research for nearly 20 years where I am currently still actively working in this field at UCL as a researcher and lecturer.  My strong reason for choosing to teach HB was due to the significant difference it made to my relaxation state and the amazing success I had with implementing the technique into the birth plan for my first child and how it helped me to continue to have a positive frame of mind post birth.  I remember starting the course in preparation for the birth of my first child with fear and walking out at the end thinking birthing is not as fearful as people make it out to be and I can do this calmly and with confidence.  This mentality strengthened further with practicing HB and on the day of birthing my child I accepted the situation whole heartedly and took away the experience as a positive one.  In combination with my strong research and teaching background as well as my advocacy for HB I wanted to 'spread the word' of the benefits of HB, this naturally led me to become a HB teacher.  I absolutely love teaching it and knowing that I can and have made a profound difference for how parents to be approach the birth of their child gives me immense satisfaction.

Hello!  My name is Lottie, author, writer and mum to two hypno babies - Mia and Lily. I'm a self confessed birth junkie and Doula having trained with the great Michel Odent in February 2013.

Being pregnant and giving birth is one of the most precious moments in life that should be cherished and experienced with gentle trepidation and positivity. Every baby deserves a beautiful calm birth and every mum deserves the support, information and tools to enable her to experience the birth she desires.

Informed choice is such a big issue for me. I believe that all women deserve to know that they are the only ones to 'allow' anything that happens to them or their body during pregnancy. We needn't live in undue fear.

I aim, with my courses to teach a calm and controlled approach to pregnancy and birth, and beyond. Incredibly passionate about breastfeeding, natural immunity and gentle attachment parenting I aim to share the knowledge I have gained since becoming a mum to help other mums to be (and dads) to benefit fully from the get go.

I am a mum, wife and a teacher of HypnoBirthing, BabyCalm and Baby Massage. I love all things Birth and Baby related.

I have been involved with HypnoBirthing since 2006. I trained initially with the HypnoBirthing Institute, the founding body of The Mongan Method. Prior to having my children I feared birth, but attending HypnoBirthing™ classes with my initially sceptical husband changed how we both felt about birth and we were able to positively look forward to both births.  I work with expectant parents, across South London, North Surrey and North Kent on a Group and 1-2-1 basis helping them to achieve calm and enjoyable births.

My name is Shirley and I live in Fernhurst in the border of the three counties West Sussex, Surrey & Hampshire. We have three daughters. Two of these were hypnobirths. My third birth was at home and the most amazing experience I have ever had. I realised the importance of understanding the birth process and how to work with your body will enable you to have a positive birth experience.

Birth and children are my world! I also run world music and movement classes for babies and toddlers called Yo Baby.

I run a local Positive Birth Movement Group, a local Home Birth Support group where we lend pools for a donation, I am a Reiki Master and currently training in Indian Head Massage and as a ABM Breastfeeing Counsellor.

I am so passionate about spreading the Hypnobirth word, giving birth is a life changing experience. By practicing Hypnobirthing you are also learning new skills for life that you continue to use after your baby is born.

Wife to James & Mummy to Max, born in April 2016 to an incredibly successful hynobirth. The birth feels like my biggest achievement. As a result of such a beautiful and profound experience, I want to share my passion with others and allow them to have the same tools to have a calm, confident and empowering birth.

I am a qualified Hypnobirth teacher, trained by Katharine Graves and a member of the Hypnobirthing Association. I am also a Hypnobirthing mother.

I attended Katharine Graves Hypnobirthing course together with my partner when I was pregnant. Our son was born into this world calmly and naturally, something I had not thought was possible before knowing about Hypnobirthing.

My passion for Hypnobirthing led me to train to become Hypnobirth teacher. I am dedicated to help other couples experience what a difference Hypnobirthing makes.

Kirsty is a fully qualified hypnobirthing practitioner based in SW London. She is a member of the Hypnobirthing Association and the National Childbirth Trust (NCT). She has a diploma in Antenatal Education and teaches antenatal classes for the NCT. Kirsty is committed to do what she can to help people have a better birth experience. She regularly attends meetings with midwives and obstetricians at the local hospitals in order to feedback issues and keep updated with local hospital policies. Kirsty also attends study days and keeps up-to-date with current research and practice.

Kirsty has three children and has experienced birthing with and without hypnobirthing techniques. After a bad first birth experience Kirsty was terrified of giving birth a second time so undertook hypnobirthing classes. The difference between the births was unbelievable. The birth of her daughter (at home) was an empowering and enjoyable experience. Picture a relaxed, glowing mother sitting on her own sofa, nursing her newborn baby and enjoying a very well deserved cup of tea and chocolate biscuit! Contrast this to her first birth experience where she looked grey, was completely exhausted and couldn't move from her hospital bed, she wasn't even allowed to sit-up for 2 hours after the birth. Kirsty was so amazed at the power of hypnobirthing she feels that all women should be given the opportunity to have a positive birth experience. Kirsty has just had her third baby and once again had a brilliant experience as a result of using hypnobirthing techniques.

I am a mother of 3 children and qualified as an Active Birth Teacher in 1997 and have been teaching pregnancy yoga, birth preparation classes and postnatal yoga for the last 15 years.

I also trained as a doula with the Paramanadoula training course.

I trained on Katharine Graves Hypnobirthing Course in 2010. I feel that the work I do as a yoga teacher and the practices of Hypnobirthing together give women a complete preparation for labour and birth. Also my experiences as a doula attending births give me the skills to really understand the support women need in labour and this is reflected in the workshops I offer.

I am a full time practising Midwife and I am passionate about empowering women for labour and birth. I have been teaching KGHYPNOBIRTHING for 5 years. I offer 1-1 courses in the comfort of your home or mine . I also incorporate all the labour and birth teaching too. I have a particular interest in supporting women with PTSD from their previous birth experience. As an experienced Midwife too I am very experienced at allaying fears. My aim is to empower you, your baby and your birth partner(s) to achieve a calm, loving and positive birth experience. I cover Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Middlesex, North and Central London.
