Hypnobirthing Yorkshire W - Teachers' Directory

Hello and congratulations on your pregnancy!
Welcome to HD Hypnobirth. My name is Angela Wilson Rogers, I am a mum, a practising midwife and qualified Katharine Graves hypnobirthing teacher.
Whether this is your first or subsequent baby, it is a very exciting time and we begin to plan and prepare from the moment we discover we are pregnant. Decorating the nursery, shopping for a cot and a pram and baby clothes, arranging the baby shower - these are all things we are quick to start thinking about.
So, how do we prepare our minds and bodies for the upcoming labour and birth? What would be the ideal way?

Hypnobirthing is a complete antenatal education programme which aims to reduce the fear surrounding childbirth.

Let me help you to achieve a calm and comfortable birth, preparing you well for when you meet your precious newborn baby. All enquiries welcomed and we can discuss any questions you may have in more detail. Warmest wishes, Angela.

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.

My name is Amy Earnshaw and I am interested in all things pregnancy and birth related. Natural remedies, old wives tales and tapping into a woman’s incredible power just lights me up and I want to share the things I have learnt to enhance other’s experiences.

I am a trained placenta remedies specialist trained by IPEN – Independent Placenta Encapsulation Network, you can find out more about IPEN here. I have been interested in placenta remedies ever since encapsulating my own placenta after the birth of my third child. The smoothies and pills had such an amazing effect on me that I want to be able to share that with others. Read more about placenta remedies here.

I am a KGHypnobirthing teacher and you can find more about KGH here. I have seen the power of hypnobirthing so many times and I would love every woman to be able to do this course. It really can make all the difference. Read more about the course here.

I am a midwfe qualified in hypnobirthing, pregnancy massage and reflexology working in Leeds.

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 secondary school teacher living in Wakefield (from Liverpool originally) with two boys of my own.

My own two birth experiences are as different as day and night and I know first-hand the difference that hypnobirthing can make. My first (traumatic) birth has changed me in many ways, and I understand the emotional pain and grief that lingers like a shadow.

Like me, you might have come to hypnobirthing with little knowledge of it but with the desire for a different experience. I know that this is possible and I am confident that I can help you achieve a better birth using this method. 

I can’t change my past, but I can change the future for someone else.

My hope is that the people I teach will never know the pain that I have endured to get here.

I am a KGHypnobirthing Teacher, Clinical Hypnotherapist and Reiki Practitioner.  I offer training at 3 different sites currently; Epworth, Doncaster and Rothwell.

I was inspired to train to be a Hypnotherapist because I wanted to help women during Childbirth and those early weeks and months after a baby is born.   This is such an important time and a relaxed and confident Mum can enjoy it fully.  

I would like to see Hypnobirthing become the new norm the way waterbirthing has over the last 10years and it is my intention to do what I can to spread the word.  I believe that we have lost sight of this natural process and intend to try to help women learn to trust nature.

Lover of cake, a good cup of tea and the sea. My happy place. Oh and the big one, I am also a trained KGH hypnobirther and therapist.

My work as a therapist has allowed me to spend lots of time with people working through their feelings of anxiety and low self esteem. It is through this that I fell in love with talking to expectant parents and challenging them to expect more from their birth experience.

I believe that every woman should be able to find a useful, authentic message about the options they have to birth their baby. Just as every person is different, every birth is your personal experience and one that should be embraced without fear. My work is about giving women the information they need to understand their wonderful bodies and plan for their birth experience.

What I am promising you is the opportunity to learn everything you need to know to make the right choices for you. To learn practical techniques to use during your labour and have the delivery you want. The best delivery for you and your baby. To let go of the fear and embrace your birth for the amazing experience it is.

So have a read, check out a class or drop me a message to chat about getting started.

Congratulations on your pregnancy and thank you for visiting my page. I am a KGHypnobirthing teacher trained by Katharine Graves in 2016. Being a KGHypnobirthing teacher is a huge privilege and I welcome the opportunity of working with you to achieve the best birth for you and your baby.

Giving birth to my daughter in 1997 I was interested in having as natural a birth as possible. During pregnancy I listened to a tape (no CD's in those days!) which had relaxing music and guided suggestions, I learned to relax through breathing and visualisations and used this during the birth. The midwives commented how calm I was as a first time older mother.

Hypnobirthing teaches you how your body works, and how to work with your body.  It provides you with relaxation techniques, breathing exercises and much more.  It is a full in-depth antenatal training programme - logical, simple and practical.  Your body is designed by nature to give birth and giving birth can be the most wonderful and empowering experience of your life.  KGHypnobirthing can allow you to experience the magic of birth to the full.

I am a qualified teacher in Adult and Further Education and look forward to working with you.

As a hypnotherapist and a mother having had two very different births, I was very excited to explore KG Hypnobirthing myself as it was so highly recommended by my Hypnotherapy tutor. Being a KG Hypnobirthing teacher is a privilege because it means that I am able to assist women in having an empowering birth experience and increase the likelihood of them having a calm and natural birth with little or no need of pain relief.

I’m a mother - I have four, now grown up, children. I am a qualified midwife, with a first class honours degree in Midwifery Studies,  and 18 years clinical experience – in hospitals, the community and in independent practice. I currently work as an independent midwife and as a doula (professional birth support). I  am qualified in a range of maternity complementary therapies. I am also a qualified hypnotherapist.

I came to Hypnobirthing through my work as a midwife. I initially trained in the Mongan Method 5 years ago, and I have also trained in Katharine Hypnobirthing. I am currently employed on a part-time basis as an “hypnosis midwife” working on an NHS/University of Central Lancashire clinical trial of the use of  self –hypnosis for childbirth.
