I am here to educate, hold space and help you navigate your way to a highly positive birthing experience. Hello I’m Molly, the birthday coach. I’m excited that you’ve arrived at my page so that you can get to know me better before we embark on this very beautiful and important part of your pregnancy journey together. Each pregnancy is unique and it is my passion and role to ensure that you are empowered throughout the process. I’m here to educate, hold space and help you navigate your way to a highly positive birthing experience. My desire to become a practitioner has been driven by my history of working in medicine and my own health journey which has been my main focus for the past year. In 2018 I pursued a career in nursing where I had the opportunity of working in a vast range of medical settings. I loved the experience of working in very hands-on fast paced environments in wards but have always been drawn to more intimate settings such as community and clinic based care. After two years of completing my degree we were met with the coronavirus pandemic. This is a time that has been challenging for everyone in too many ways to mention, but for me it was when my development of kidney disease came to light. After a couple of months of volunteering at the start of the pandemic I began to develop symptoms of the disease and had to take leave from my studies. This shift in my reality brought to light many challenges and forced me to think about the future of my career in medicine. I had always been interested in and inspired by hypnobirthing with the rising interest of it in the medical profession and with concerns for my own health and what pregnancy might look like for me in the future, I began to research it further. This led to my discovery of Katherine Graves Hypnobirthing London, a training facility for want-to-be practitioners. Learning that this course is accredited by the Royal College of Midwives and is highly respected in the UK and globally, I decided to get my diploma which is how I found myself here. My health journey has required me to think both medically and get into deeper connection with my body with the use of holistic modalities which furthered my passion for hypnobirthing. Hypnobirthing is a powerful hybrid between both medical and holistic. It is also inclusive as it doesn’t rule out any birthing process and as your coach I will be here to help you intuitively decide what is best for you and provide the appropriate tools and modalities to work with. Whilst our time will be more concentrated throughout the course I want you to continue to have my support by answering questions and sending useful resources your way. As an addition to the support I can provide, I’m always keen to make connections with local services so that I can supply you with trusted suppliers that can help support your hypnobirthing experience.
