Your Birth Sussed | Hypnobirthing and Antenatal Courses

I’m Lucy, midwife, nurse and qualified KGHypnobirthing teacher.

Welcome! My name is Lucy and I am passionate about empowering women and birthing people to feel confident and informed during pregnancy and birth. As a qualified hypnobirthing teacher with KGHypnobirthing, midwife and registered nurse, I bring a unique blend of professional expertise and personal experience to help you prepare for a calm and positive birth.

My journey with hypnobirthing began during my first pregnancy when I discovered the power of breathing techniques and relaxation tools to stay calm and focused. By my second pregnancy, I deepened my understanding of what happens to the body during labour and birth, as well as the rights and options available to me. This knowledge transformed my confidence in my body’s ability to birth my baby naturally and empowered me to trust the process fully.

Now, I want to share this knowledge with you. Over the years, I’ve had countless conversations with women who feel unsure about their options or lack confidence in their ability to give birth. This inspired me to train as a hypnobirthing teacher so I can support women and birthing people by equipping them with evidence-based knowledge and practical skills. My goal is to help you feel prepared, calm, and confident, no matter what path your birthing journey takes.

With over a decade of experience in women’s health, including supporting women through early pregnancy and various gynaecological conditions, I’ve dedicated my career to helping women thrive. I stay up to date with the latest in the birth and maternity world to ensure that I provide you with accurate, evidence-based guidance that reflects current best practices.

If you’re looking for a warm, supportive, and knowledgeable guide to help you prepare for birth, I would be honoured to be part of your journey. Together, we can build your confidence, inform your choices, and create a calm and empowering birth experience.

What is hypnobirthing?

Hypnobirthing is not stage hypnosis—it’s a practical and evidence informed approach to labour and birth. At its core, hypnobirthing helps you achieve a deep state of relaxation through practice during pregnancy. This relaxation allows your body to labour more effectively, promoting a smoother and often more comfortable birth experience.

Our KGHypnobirthing course offers a complete and comprehensive hypnobirthing and antenatal program. You’ll gain an understanding of the science of hypnosis, why it’s beneficial during labour and how it can support a quicker, more comfortable birth. With this knowledge, you’ll be motivated to practice during pregnancy, making the techniques more effective when you need them—without requiring conscious effort in the moment.

What You'll Learn:

The Physiology of Birth: Understand what happens in your body during labour so you can work with it, not against it.
Deep Relaxation Techniques: Practice entering a calm state that allows birth hormones to flow naturally and optimally.
Releasing Fear: Let go of fears and anxieties about birth, even those buried in your subconscious from past experiences or stories.
Navigating Birth with Confidence: Explore potential scenarios during labour and learn how to navigate them positively.
Your Rights and Choices: Feel empowered with knowledge about your options in pregnancy and birth.

By the end of our course, you’ll feel excited and prepared for the birth of your baby. Hypnobirthing is more than just a technique - it’s about creating a positive mindset and empowering you for the journey ahead.

Testimonials

Before starting Lucy’s hypnobirthing course we wanted to gain more confidence and knowledge in being able to have a calm and successful labour and birthing experience. With me and my husband becoming first time parents, preparing for a comfortable home birth was important to us but we had some natural worries and questions.
After attending the full course we came out feeling excited for the birth ahead, I felt more confident in my ability to give birth naturally and my husband came out feeling more relaxed and more assertive in how better to support me during labour. We have learnt how to utilise the many different hypnobirthing techniques and also covering some of the biology behind labour and birth and how to connect this with your breathing and relaxation.
We felt comfortable and open in asking questions and we feel much more ready and excited for our baby to arrive! We enjoyed getting to know another couple who was on our course and we are so glad we chose to join Lucy and the hypnobirthing classes!

I hoped to gain time for myself to switch off and relax during the final weeks of my pregnancy and meet women going through the same. I learnt so much information from Lucy and the pregnancy relaxation sessions. The topics each week I always took something away and learnt a lot as well as being able to relax and have some me time. The sessions and Lucy helped me to feel more relaxed and informed on birth and what choices we can make to help improve birth when the time comes very soon hopefully!

Thank you for the sessions each week everyone was so welcoming and they were really helpful to destress at the end of the week and they always led me to have the best night's sleep which at 30+ weeks pregnant was very much appreciated!

When I signed up to Lucy's pregnancy relaxation course I hoped for just that, to feel more relaxed about my pregnancy. My pregnancy was unplanned and I felt really out of control with things, included what was happening to my body and what would happen to my body during birth. Not only has Lucy taught me how to take time for myself and my baby by relaxing and feel in touch with my baby... she has also taught me so much about pregnancy and labour. I've learnt so much about things I never even knew existed!

When I signed up to the course I was expecting to only learn the likes of breathing techniques and visualisations. However I've finished the course with a plethora of knowledge I wouldn't have otherwise. I feel so much more informed and confident.

I am also thankful for this course as I have been able to meet other pregnant women, I now feel as though I have a group of mums in my corner, something I never expected possible as a young mum. I would 1000% recommend this course to any mummy to be and I for one will really miss my Friday evenings spent relaxing and learning with Lucy.

I just wanted to drop you an email to say how much we appreciated and enjoyed the Hypnobirthing course over the last 4 weeks.

I'm so glad that it was you running this particular course. It's really helped me (especially over the last week) relax by using some of the techniques but also just feel a lot more confident about what's about to happen. It’s also helped Liam feel more confident about what to expect and how he can support my journey to a calm and enjoyable birth.

The course not only taught us great techniques to remain calm and relaxed, which we both use, but also a lot more about the process of labour and what to expect during the birth. Had we not attended this course with you I feel like we wouldn't know what to expect and what the choices/decisions we could be required to make during the process.

Thank you so much for taking us through the course, answering all our questions and discussing everything we asked about in more detail.

We booked our Hypnobirthing course with Lucy to educate and prepare us as first time parents. We were amazed after the end of the first session, it left us feeling excited and already more confident. We couldn't wait to learn more. Lucy's passion and enthusiasm shines through as she delivers the course. Her knowledge and patience are second to none. We both feel much more prepared and confident to make informed decisions that are right for us and baby. We are excited for our Hypnobirthing birth plan and to welcome our daughter into the world. We 100% recommend to book with Lucy as her teachings will enrich your birth and labour experience. I look forward to sharing our positive and empowered birth with you.
