Getting to know me

My name is Gill and I a the founder of Your Cozy Birth (formally known as Medway Hypnobirth). I have a background in Midwifery and over 25 years experience working with new parents. I am a kind and friendly birth nerd who hopes to share my passion for birth with you.

I have 3 beautiful grown up children (the first of whom followed a long journey of infertility and IVF) who where all born in hospital. I got to follow my birth plan which literally stated that I wanted a ‘homebirth in hospital’.

Throughout my Birthworker journey, I have been present at a fair few homebirths and have seen many more managed births in hospital and in theatre. Birth naturally follows its own course and I have found that that clients who use hypnobirthing techniques are able to stay in control of their birth however it happens. I have lots of experience working with postnatal families and a deep understanding of issues that surround infant feeding

Based in Rotherham

I work as a Hypnobirthing teacher, have undertaken doula training and provide bespoke Hypnobirthing classes in Rotherham and the surrounding area using evidence based information, which can include hypnobirthing tools and techniques. Its live and interactive and I can answer your questions as they come up. My hypnobirthing classes are based on the Love Your Birth class plans and resources with whom I upgraded my training in 2022. I know you will love the course as much as I do! Find our more about Hypnobirthing your baby HERE
