I am a very proud mother of two delightful HypnoBirthed boys, Zachary and Jacob.

Professionally I am a registered New Zealand Primary School Teacher, a fully qualified and certified HypnoBirthing® instructor affiliated with the HypnoBirthing Institutue, a fully qualified HypnoMothering® practitioner and currently studying towards a Clinical Hypnotherapy Diploma.

My husband Darrell and I were introduced to HypnoBirthing® during our pregnancy with Zach where we were taught wonderful yet simple self hypnosis and relaxation techniques.

These tools enabled us to enter Zach’s birthing journey with open minds and open hearts trusting in the power of my birthing body and Darrell’s innate ability to be our advocate and mouthpiece while I was in a deep state of relaxation.

By using the HypnoBirthing® techniques Darrell, myself and Zachary worked in harmony throughout my pregnancy and our birthing experience which lead to Zach being a happy content peaceful new born and Darrell and I being aware confident and strong new parents.

Zachary was delivered via Emergency Cesarean Section, and I used all my skills attained to make it a blissful experience.

The skills we learnt through our HypnoBirthing® course have also been utilized in a myriad of ways outside of our birthing experience.

I have used the simple breathing techniques during situations that may have been overwhelming, and find that one of the key relaxation techniques learnt I still use to help myself go to sleep most nights.

I am so passionate about the key concepts of HypnoBirthing® that I decided to take it further and trained in the field in order to help other mothers and birthing companions feel as empowered as I did and do!

Not long after I was accredited, Jacob was getting ready to join us.

I was determined to be a PBAC/VBAC mother. (Positive Birth After Cesarean/Vaginal Birth After Cesarean).

Throughout my pregnancy with Jacob I used and reused all my skills to stay calm, enjoy my pregnancy and ensure he was doing the same. His birthing day came… and I achieved my beautiful VBAC HypnoBirthing birth. Due to this accomplishment, I’d love to work alongside other PBAC mothers. 

I’m not currently working in the Primary School sector but know that due to my experience as an educator my ‘parents’ will feel empowered and prepared to answer any questions posed due to my ability to facilitate all learning styles.


With an open mind and an open heart I look forward to meeting you soon and starting this wonderful educational journey which will lead to you and your birthing companion welcoming your delightful new life with joy, ease and excitement.
