Looking for Hypnobirthing courses and living near Garforth?
I am a hypnobirthing teacher, living in Leeds, near Wakefield, West Yorkshire. I offer group hypnobirthing courses in Oulton, Leeds, near Garforth and private face to face hypnobirthing courses for people living in Garforth and the surrounding area. I also offer these course online, for those living further away. My private face to face courses take place in the comfort of your own home, whether you live in Garforth or the surrounding area and because of my great location in South Leeds, I am within a very short distance from lots of Yorkshire towns. I can reach people living in Garforth, Rothwell, Castleford, Normanton, Pontefract, Wakefield, Lofthouse, Horbury, Batley, Ossett, Leeds and Dewsbury. Basically, anywhere that is close to the M62 or M1. Plus, because I live between Leeds and Wakefield, I can easily access many of the local hospitals. Pinderfields hospital is only a 15 minute drive away, Dewsbury and District Hospital is only 15 minutes away and I am only 20 minutes away from Pontefract hospital. St James's University Hospital and Leeds General Infirmary are only a very short drive away from me too.
As a Hypnobirthing teacher and Doula in Leeds, I am very familiar with the local hospital maternity units and Yorkshire's maternity system. I had both of my 2 children at St James's University Hospital (SJUH) and I am also the Co-Chair for Leeds Maternity Voices Partnership. I have supported many clients who are using Leeds maternity services, Wakefield and Harrogate.
The aim of my hypnobirthing courses is to help you to feel empowered during your birth, calm, confident and in control. I can take you from feeling anxious about your birth, to excited and from feeling scared to prepared. You will receive all of the tools and techniques that you will need, to be able to make your own informed decisions, be able to relax during your labour and birth, making your birth feel more comfortable. Your birth partner will learn how they can support you, understand the birth process and learn how to navigate the complicated maternity system. You will receive a beautiful hypnobirthing workbook, MP3 tracks recorded in my voice and a calm caesarean workbook, for those people wanting a c-section birth. Useful information sheets, free samples, plus positive birth and postnatal affirmation cards are also included in your hypnobirthing tool kit.
What are the advantages of Hypnobirthing?
Preparing for your birth is so important and doing a hypnobirthing course can help you to have a fear free, positive birth experience. There are so many advantages to hypnobirthing. Hypnobirthing has amazing positive effects on your baby, during pregnancy, reducing the stress hormones and helping them to have a calm arrival into the world. It has been said that "hypno babies" are calmer babies!
It is never too late or too early to prepare for birth. I recommend starting a hypnobirthing course from around 20-35 weeks gestation, to get the maximum benefits of the full course. However, if you are expecting your baby very soon, you can still do a course with me and do the essentials course. This is a shorter version of the full course, but will still give you all the hypnobirthing techniques that you'll you need to have a great birthing experience. Alternatively you might want to do my calm caesarean course, if you are planning to have a caesarean section.
My hypnobirthing courses are suitable for everyone, including birth partners and suitable for ALL births. So, whether you want a drug free vaginal birth, instrumental birth, epidural or caesarean section, hypnobirthing will help you to have a positive experience, however that might look. Hypnobirthing can help you to remove any fears that you might have about birth, using various tools and techniques, to help you to feel excited and positive about your birth. Not only can hypnobirthing help you to have a calm, relaxed birth, but the skills and techniques that you learn, will be skills for life. Teaching you on how to be able to instantly feel relaxed and calm when you want to be e.g. a work presentation, dentist appointment etc. This is a skill that needs to be learnt and the hypnobirthing skills that you learn on my course will help you to instantly feel calm and relaxed, when required, well beyond your pregnancy and birth.
