Welcome to My Calm Birth

Yorkshire’s Private Midwifery, Hypnobirthing and Birth Trauma Services.

Your labour and birth experiences matter to me.

No, REALLY matter to me.

This will be one of the most important things you ever do, so let’s make it right! I want you to have the best time of your life as you plan for and experience your birth journey and early parenting days.

Together we will explore what an amazing process your body is going through;

  • We will chat endlessly about your pregnancy and birth choices (over copious amounts of tea)
  • We will explore the most up-to-date evidence, teasing out what “fits” for you.

You will have the benefit of my 35 years’ midwifery experience and specialist hypnobirthing knowledge and can be sure that there is no such thing as a silly question.

Let’s get excited about your birth.

Let’s get your partner excited about your birth.

Let’s get everyone around you excited about your birth!

Meet Amanda!

Hi, Amanda here! I am so excited about being able to support you during such a special time in your life and I want you to know that I’m with you every step of the way. I know that being pregnant can be exciting, scary, planned, unplanned, mind-blowing and every other emotion going! With over 35 years’ experience as a midwife – both in the NHS and privately – and a specialist hypnobirthing and antenatal educator, my aim is to help you to feel excited, supported and prepared for what is going to be the most momentous time of your life.
