The Birth Thing

I felt very lucky and honoured to have Katy teach me all things Hypnobirthing not that long after the birth of her own little beaut. This was my second baby, after a very straightforward water birth for my first. I felt a little anxiety about things not working so perfectly this time, so Katy reassured me whatever the scenario I could take control and have a positive birth. Funny enough, I ended up with an induction, so the tools she taught me were totally invaluable for keeping calm and progressing. And when the induction curve ball was thrown our way, she helped guide us and adapt to this new plan. My husband and I have agreed, that although our first birth was picture perfect, this one felt more magical as we worked so well as a team to get him here safely. Thank you Katy for being a guru in all things birth, and for being so wonderful with it. I'll always look back on our experience with a happy heart

I first met Katy online on a zoom virtual gathering for mums to be, when I was expecting my first baby in 2020. It was such a nice thing she was doing to make sure new mums had a chance to meet other mums and share experiences and have a support network despite covid restrictions. We then signed up for her hypnobirthing course which both myself and my husband found so helpful in preparation for our little arrival! Katy was such a calm lovely teacher and we were so reassured prior to the birth. Despite things not going exactly as planned we were able to use what we learned on the course to stay calm and feel empowered and I truly loved my birth! Thank you Katy!

Investing in a private course with Katy was worth every penny! Not only is she just generally lovely and super supportive of mamas-to-be, her course gives you some amazing tools and loads of knowledge and empowerment to prepare for birth, and helps shift your mindset towards a positive birth whatever that looks like for you. We found it so worthwhile, and would definitely recommend it as part of your birth preparation.

We did a hypnobirthing course with Katy when we were expecting our daughter, and I can't recommend her highly enough. Not only was the course itself incredibly informative, empowering and engaging, equipping us with the tools we needed going into the birth of our first child, but Katy herself was so amazingly supportive afterwards, always on hand to offer advice or a calm word when needed! The techniques we learnt on the course went far beyond preparing us for birth. In a very uncertain time when the world was turning upside down due to the pandemic, what Katy taught us allowed me to keep my anxiety in check, remain calm and positive throughout a pregnancy in lockdown. The virtual gatherings she subsequently arranged were also a huge support. My husband also benefitted massively, with the course alleviating so much of the uncertainty around pregnancy and birth. It gave us both a comprehensive understanding of what to expect and how to prepare ourselves, as well as giving him a clear role and confidence to support me throughout. All in all, Katy is just wonderful and we couldn't have asked for a better teacher!

Working with Katy and having her guidance throughout my pregnancy was so empowering. Shes a fantastic teacher and helped me feel really prepared for the birth of my daughter. She has such a lovely teaching style, making me feel both engaged and totally relaxed, even on zoom. I learnt so much and so did my husband and we were able to use so much of it at each stage of labour. I feel so incredibly positive about my birth story and whilst luckily a huge part of that was down to nature and the position of my baby, I have no doubt my sessions with Katy put me in the best possible mindset. They also gave my husband and I all the tools and knowledge we needed and when it was all happening my husband loved that he could support and advocate for me based on everything wed learnt and discussed together. I wouldnt hesitate recommending Katy and if I could give her more than five stars I would. Xx
