Hypnobirthing Yorkshire N - Teachers' Directory

I am Lindsey Fake. I was very afraid of giving birth to my baby because of all the negative birth stories so many other women told me and also the constant stream of horrific births on TV! One Born Every Minute being one of them!

I knew I didn't want a birth like that and felt I needed to educate myself in order to remove the fear associated with labour and birth which our culture had instilled in me. I looked up hypnobirthing and to be honest, I hadn't heard of it before. The more I looked into it, the more I knew it was the way to put me on the right tracks. After all, what had I got to lose?

My husband thought it was just for hippies and was 'mumbo jumbo'... He came along anyway just to support me and was a convert from the very first session! It's so logical and common sense so appealed to him. The scales dropped from our eyes as we realised that we have not been putting much faith in women and their bodies and what they are capable of. Women are designed to give birth comfortably but with all the negative conditioning we receive daily, it's no wonder we fear it.

Hypnobirthing in Leeds will help remove the fear and negativity with simple yet effective techniques so you and your birth partner can enjoy your pregnancy and look forward to birthing your baby.

Hello gorgeous pregnant lady.......I’m Ruth Lyons, experienced KGHypnobirthing Practitioner and the proud creator of Inspired Birth.

I’m extremely passionate about hypnobirthing as I know that it absolutely works. Anyone who knows me would agree that I really do LOVE hypnobirthing. Words cannot explain how amazing I have found it and I am in constant search of the answer to ‘why doesn’t everyone use it?’, if I could I would be up on every rooftop shouting, ‘hypnobirthing is incredible’ and no I am not crazy……….!

It gave me the confidence and knowledge to help me control my mind and body resulting in three extremely positive birth experiences. I would honestly say that hypnobirthing has changed my life and I use some of the techniques on a daily basis.  My mission is for every woman to be empowered for life through a positive birth experience.

I am a mum of four amazing children and as well as being a KG Hypnobirthing practitioner I am also an antenatal education facilitator and a breast feeding per supporter.

I decided to train in KGHypnobirthing during my midwifery course. I have experienced hospital placements in Northallerton, Harrogate and York.  After I had witnessed and assisted many births, I noticed a huge difference of labour experience with those who hypnobirthed and I wanted to know more on how I could support those women. Most births were calmer, active, with less analgesia needed! – Mums were in control and birth partners where very knowledgeable and supportive. I am very passionate about every birth and want to help empower women and partners at such an important time of their lives. I teach women hypnobirthing so they can create their own positive birth story without fear.

I also provide doula services, feeding support and hire items such as Birthing Pools, TENS machines, CUB equipment and Breast Pumps. As I am Aromatherapy and Massage trained I believe I have a lot of tools and knowledge to help and support women through their birthing journey.

Having had a peaceful, calm and beautiful natural birth with my second child I fully believe in the benefits of doing a KG Hypnobirthing course. As I had taught English for many years I thought, why not teach KG Hypnobirthing? It is truly a fantastic, full antenatal course and I am very excited to be able to offer classes both in Yorkshire and Turkey. I am also a doula and photographer. 

Hello, my name is Jen and congratulations on your pregnancy.  I am a KG Hypnobirthing facilitator, Mum-to-four, and a devotee to supporting and guiding families through pregnancy, birth and the early days of parenting.  I currently deliver group and individual Hypnobirthing programmes in York, Harrogate, Ripon, Masham, Durham, Darlington and Yarm.

As a Psychology graduate, I have a deep understanding how the psychological processes have an influence on your pregnancy, birth and parenting experiences.  My qualifications in CBT, Mindfulness, Neuro-Linguistic Programming and Hypnosis, coupled with qualifications and experience in Baby Massage and Newborn Nurture, leads me to approach your needs in a holistic, and well-informed way.

As a fully qualified Antenatal Educator and KG Hypnobirthing Practitioner, I have trained to help you achieve the pregnancy and birth you want and need.  Learning the skills of Hypnobirthing is straightforward with Halcyon Hypnobirthing - once you learn how your body works in pregnancy, the skills and techniques follow.

As an educator, I know how to teach and facilitate your learning in a fun, down-to-earth and accessible way.   I know how to best develop your Hypnobirthing skills by teaching the physiological and psychological processes of pregnancy and birthing.  My knowledge and understanding of the process of learning, combined with the knowledge and understanding of Hypnobirthing, is hugely effective.

Each, and every, birth is as different as every couple, and every family. I encourage Mum's and partners to remember this. I do not believe in, a one-size-fits-all, approach to birthing and parenting.  This is where my success lies. By getting to know you as individuals, I can enhance your self-belief, your confidence and ultimately, your ability.

Your role as a parent adds a new dimension to your life, and the impact of this cannot be underestimated.  Building and nurturing your family is a time of great excitement, and one filled with hopes, dreams and aspirations. Pregnancy, birth and parenting can be joyous, awe-inspiring and one of the most fulfilling experiences.  They can also be challenging, confusing and not quite how you thought it would be!  I am here to support, reassure and guide.

I have been working with parents, babies and children for over 30 years.  As a mama to four, I understand the ups-and-downs of parenting, and I also know how to 'ride-the-waves'.  I take a holistic approach to health and well-being for parents and baby.  I also take a pragmatic but considered approach.  I believe by nurturing yourself, nurturing your baby and nurturing your relationship, you can face parenting challenges better equipped.

Over the years, I have worked in a range of roles to include:

• Hypnobirthing Practitioner
• Antenatal Educator
• Infant massage Instructor
• Newborn Nurture Specialist
• Early Years Practitioner and Specialist
• Maternity Nurse
• Nanny and Night Nanny
• Primary School Teacher
• Lecturer and Trainer in Childcare and Education
• Early Years Consultant
• Parenting Education and Support
• Soothe, Settle and Sleep Consultancy
• Mental Health Care Support Worker

Through my experiences, and with a passion for helping families nurture each other, I love to help a family become, the family they want to be.

I teach yoga, pregnancy yoga and Hypnobirthing and I have been educating people to use their bodies in a natural and instinctive way for many years.

I am passionate about helping people understand how their minds and bodies work and what they can do to keep happy and healthy in a natural way.

I am particularly interested in helping mothers to understand their bodies in pregnancy and birth and how to achieve the pregnancy and birthing experience they want.

I am an experienced Psychotherapist and Counsellor and Clinical Hypnotherapist,  an a few years ago I heard about Hypnobirth!!  I immediately felt that Hypnobirth was definitely something I needed to know more about! I often had mums to be in the clinic asking for help with their fears of giving birth. The best decision I have ever made. I googled Hypnobirth and within two months I was attending a teacher training course. I have attended another another course this year, and love teaching this technique to my mums and their birthing partners, helping them to birth their baby calmly and in control, just as they planned!

I am warm, patient, empathic and non-judgmental.  I have considerable experience of working with antenatal and postnatal parents and in depth knowledge of up to date and current guidelines and research.  I take a particular interest in the research that explores what new parents say they would like to have known and been told antenatally. It is a huge privilege to be able to introduce women to skills and information that can give them back control over their birthing and feeding decisions.
