Hypnobirthing Yorkshire N - Teachers' Directory

I am Katie, a passionate and experienced Midwife having worked in all sectors of pregnancy and birth for the last ten years across Leeds and Harrogate.

I am also a qualified KGHypnobirthing practitioner having taught within the hospital setting for the last 3 years. 

I teach Hypnobirthing because I want you to feel confident, to look forward to and enjoy your birth and feel overwhelmingly proud of how amazing you are!

Through my experiences as a Midwife and personally as a Mummy to little Florence, I know first hand how truly amazing labour and birth can be!

My Hypnobirthing course will teach you skills for birth and for the rest of your life, giving you the best possible start to motherhood.

 

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 I'm Susan, and first of all huge congratulations on your pregnancy. I'm passionate about working with pregnant women and couples as they navigate pregnancy, labour, birth and after baby arrives the 'fourth trimester'. I want to empower couples to reduce fear and to have a positive and confident pregnancy and birth - however you birth your baby.  I believe hypnobirthing changes and empowers both mother and father and can have the most profound effects on parents and baby which can last a lifetime.

My classes provide you with all round birth preparation. As well as a qualified KG Hypnobirthing teacher and member of the Hypnobirthing Association, I am a Pregnancy and Post Natal Yoga Teacher, a trained Doula and a Mindfulness practitioner. I share with you all this knowledge in my courses to give you a complete tool kit of knowledge and techniques for your pregnany and birth journey.

What you learn on my Hypnobirthing course will leave you feeling calm, relaxed and empowered for birth, whilst the knowledge gained will provide you with the confidence to make informed choices about your baby's birth. It is complete birth preparation - however you choose to birth your baby.

My teaching is very down to earth, light hearted and practical. I want to help you become the ultimate 'birthing dream team'!  Do get in touch to find our more and ask any questions (I want you to feel this is the right course for you), and to book your place.

I look forward to hearing from you soon

I am a midwife of 2 years working in a birth centre and obstetric led unit and actively promote hypnobirthing.

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.
