Clients thoughts on their Hypnobirthing course
“The bump and chill classes were lovely! Lindsay made us all feel very welcome and relaxed. We got to work through various breathing techniques, took the time to go through a session on birth preferences which helped me write mine and a chance to ask some questions to an experienced midwife. It was a very open and honest course, expressing our individual experiences of pregnancy so far and also being able to delve into hypnobirthing /positive birthing has allowed me to feel more relaxed and positive about birth which was a full 180 compared to prior the course. I also slept so well after each class which was noticeable from the get-go. Thanks Lindsay and can’t wait to book onto your baby massage class!“

“Couldn’t recommend the private hypnobirthing course with Lindsey enough! Feeling so much more positive going into birth with the knowledge and a toolkit to remain calm, make informed decisions and handle any challenges.
Lindsey is so lovely, makes you feel instantly at ease, and is so passionate about the topic. Also, such a helpful course for birth partners – my husband got a lot out of it!“
– Katherine
“I came across Lindsey online when I was pregnant with my second baby and planning a home birth. I had done some hypnobirthing with my first after doing an online webinar. However, while some aspects worked well, I wasn’t as confident and in control as I would have liked to be. We booked a refresher course with Lindsey and attended a session at her home one evening. Lindsey is so easy to talk to and extremely knowledgeable in all areas of birth/hypnobirthing. She made me consider trying new techniques that I had dismissed the first time, provided us with lots of resources, including using audios to keep in a calmer state. These actually really helped with my sleep towards the end of pregnancy as I started listening to them before bed.
I also felt so much more positive and empowered after my second birth.
I also attended baby massage with Lindsey when my baby was 6 weeks and again it was such a welcoming, chilled environment that was a good combination of learning the massage techniques (which I am still using months later) and also getting to chat with everyone in the group which during those earlier weeks postpartum is really needed! Thank you so much again!“
– Jessica
“We both really enjoyed this course and got a lot out of it! We were recommended to go by friends who have previously attended and were not disappointed. Lindsey and the team were all very warm, welcoming and supportive, and the sessions took place in a lovely cafe. The materials pack is comprehensive and full of useful info and tips. We finished the course feeling much more calm and prepared. Would highly recommend this course!“
– Jem & Sean
“We recently did the my bump to baby antenatal classes and although I had read a lot about hypnobirthing online, I found it so much more useful to actually be there in person and get to physically practice some of the techniques (like breath work, manoeuvre’s on the yoga ball and particularly infant first aid!) with Lindsay and the team. I think I would have been overwhelmed or lost without having some direction!
My husband found it really helpful too to have someone guide him with some of the pain relief techniques and other advice on things he can do to support me when the time comes.
I liked that it was quite a small class so everyone could talk and was very easy to ask questions, have a personal chat with each of the specialists and generally feel reassured.
We came away with so much valuable information and feel confident to practice in preparation for what’s to come! I would recommend this course to everyone about to have a baby near the area!”
– Kate
“We recently did the My Bump to Baby antenatal class with Lindsey and would recommend it to anyone! We couldn’t actually make the first session as we were away, so Linds very kindly offered to do a 1-1 session with us in her gorgeous home. The level of information and empowerment you receive throughout the course is second to none, and it has helped us hugely in navigating some tricky situations later on in pregnancy which have ultimately helped us to feel a sense of agency over our birth. Linds and the whole team are so supportive, and it really feels like joining a community rather than just attending a course 💕”
– Daisy
“At 38, I felt very anxious about having my first baby. Hearing so many frightening and painful birth stories from friends left me dreading the experience. I also had a long‑standing needle phobia and only managed my first blood test months before giving birth.
I decided to book Linds hypnobirthing course because my fear of labour was overwhelming. My partner and I attended together, and we learned practical coping strategies that immediately made us feel more in control.
Although I had planned an elective caesarean, I went into natural labour 12 hours beforehand. Thanks to Linds’ guidance, we stayed calm throughout. We knew how to manage the contractions, when to contact the hospital, and how to keep my anxiety under control. I delivered via caesarean, and the whole experience was calm, positive, and seamless.
The tools and knowledge Linds shared have continued to support us every day as new parents helping us navigate challenges with confidence.
My message to anyone feeling afraid of giving birth is this: Linds’ hypnobirthing course truly eases your worries before, during, and after labour. I believe the calm birth experience it helped me achieve has played a huge part in my smooth recovery and in feeling able to thrive as a first‑time mum.”
– Sarah
“I did the My Bump to Baby ante natal course in October 2025, and it was a really special experience. It was a small group and a relaxed setting which felt really accessible, but it was also the right balance of empowering, informative, and realistic. I’d recommend the course if only for Lindsey’s enthusiasm about hypnobirthing and birth generally!”
– Sophie
“I’ve attended Lindsey’s ‘Mummy’s and Mocktails’ event, ‘My bump and chill’ workshop and last but CERTAINLY NOT least ‘My bump to baby’ course.
Each and every event, workshop and course oozes love, care and attention. Lindsey is an utter professional with an amazing font of knowledge around all things pre- and post-natal and if she doesn’t have the answer, she can point you in the right direction.
I will write my review based mainly on my latest experience, ‘My bump to baby’ course. If you have any doubt on whether or not to book this course, please see this review as your sign to do so right now. You won’t regret it. Each and every professional Lindsey has brought on board has a wealth of knowledge and experience in their field. The course has left me feeling calm and confident ready and excited to give birth to my baby boy. It has given me the confidence to know that I can be in total control of my environment and how my baby and myself are cared for. I have gained a multitude of tools and new skills I can apply to birth, labour and beyond.
I cannot recommend Lindsey and everything she has to offer enough. I will certainly be back with the baby to enjoy her ‘my baby & me’ massage course.
Thank you so much. Lots of love, Nat xx”

“Very informative and interactive course delivered by knowledgeable and engaging practitioners. Both me and my partner left each class having learnt a lot about how to prepare for the birth, have the birth we wanted and look after our boy in the first few months of being a family of four (dog included).”
– Charles
“As a couple, we found Lindsey’s Express Hypnobirthing course incredibly valuable. We opted for a private session, which gave us exactly what we needed to feel prepared for the birth of our little girl. The course was informative, practical, and Lindsey created a warm, relaxed atmosphere that instantly put us at ease.
From a male perspective, I’ll admit I didn’t go in with high expectations, I thought it might not be very relevant to me. But I came away genuinely surprised by how much I learnt and how much more prepared I felt. Lindsey not only explained the stages of labour, and also helped me understand what my partner would be feeling and what she would need from me and how important my role as a birth partner was.
The knowledge I gained gave me the confidence to stay calm and be truly supportive throughout the birth. I honestly don’t think I would have coped as well without it. Even when our birth plan changed and we ended up in theatre, we were able to stay connected and draw on what we’d learnt to make calm, informed decisions together. Because of that, we still had a really positive birth experience.
We would highly recommend this course to any couple looking to feel more prepared, informed, and any male wanting to feel relevant during the birthing experience. Thank you, Lindsey!”
– Sam
“I booked Lindsey’s My Bump & Chill Pregnancy Relaxation classes in my second pregnancy, following a traumatic first labour. Each session offered something different which, collectively, helped me to build a toolkit that made me feel more confident and more empowered going into my second labour – even when plans hac to change. I am incredibly grateful to Lindsey for helping me experience a positive birth!”
– Hannah
“Lindsey helped me overcome my biggest fears around birth and to truly have faith in my body and it’s natural capability. Without hypnobirthing my daughter’s birth would have been a very different and difficult experience. I also appreciated speaking with Lindsey afterwards to process and debrief. I can’t wait to work with her again for future pregnancies and births, thank you Lindsey xx”
– Jen
“Great courses for any parents to be. I first went to a Mummy & Mocktail night that Lindsey had organised and it was a great way to meet other mum’s to be. I then joined the My Bump and Chill Pregnancy Relaxation course that was all about Hypnobirthing and staying relaxed during labour through using different breathing techniques. I found this course fantastic and came away with great tips. I also did the My Bump to Baby group antenatal/hypnobirthing course. This was fantastic as each week we had speakers come to give useful information on labour, feeding, first aid, and hypnobirthing. It gives you the preparation and knowledge to feel ready for birth and more and meet other parents to be. Lindsey has made me feel so welcome to every class I have attended; she is so caring about everyone who attends the courses and gives great advice and tips to help you feel relaxed and ready for birth. Would highly recommend all her courses and I look forward to joining baby massage class next year too.”

“My husband and I both attended the April group hypnobirthing class with Lindsey who runs My Bump and Me.
Honestly it was such a brilliant course for myself in terms of feeling more prepared for birth and making me more aware of how to have a better mindset going into it all. It was equally as brilliant for my husband who now has a better understanding of the whole process and feels like he has things to focus on, and we both have tools to use to help keep us calm no matter what.
We would highly recommend this course. Lindsey is so wonderful and creates a really safe space for you to discuss anything you are worried about and share what you are excited about.
We would recommend getting your birth partners involved as they are in this journey with you. I feel since the course my husband now feels much more open to discussing birth because he now has the knowledge and understanding whereas before it all just felt too overwhelming.
If you and your partner want to be informed and feel in control about the birth or learn how to get their, this is the course for you!”
– Helena
“The mummy and mocktail event I attended was brilliant, providing an opportunity to share advice and experiences with other mums to be. Everyone was lovely and we now have a WhatsApp group where we chat and arrange meet up activities.
As a first-time mum to be I was filled with anxiety about giving birth and the fear of the unknown so whilst at the event I spoke with Lindsey about hypnobirthing and arranged a call to discuss it in more detail.
My partner and I attended the express course one evening, Lindsey was flexible to suit our availability to fit around work but also as I was nearing the end of my pregnancy. The course was fantastic; it was catered to suit our needs and the little personal touches like providing my favourite sweet treat in the goody bag was just proof of how much she loves what she does and cares for each person who books on to one of her courses or events. Lindsey provided us with tools and resources to equip us with knowledge and guidance to understand the science behind labour and what our bodies are going through, as well as breathing techniques and support tips. It’s safe to say we left feeling ready and excited!
When it came to my labour a few weeks later, things didn’t go to plan, starting with my chosen hospital closing, being diverted elsewhere and eventually being rushed into theatre due to a complication. Using the tools we had learnt and practised, rather than feel overwhelmed and shut down (my usual trait!), I was able to focus and remain calm, ask the relevant questions and still have a very positive birthing experience in what could have turned into a traumatic one. I can’t thank Lindsey enough for helping change my outlook, thought process and reframe my fear as well as give my partner the confidence he needed to feel important, so he was able to support me in the best possible way.
We highly recommend my bump and me to anyone and everyone on the pregnancy journey!”
– Vicky
“I would 100% recommend any of My Bump and Me workshops.”
– Abi
“I would highly recommend Linds, she is super friendly, reassuring and professional. Her hypnotic recordings and My Bump & Chill classes have been amazing for my birth preparation. I have already recommended her to my pregnant friends.”
– Claire
“Such a great experience with Lindsey over the course of our sessions. Firstly, being a dad already of 1, these sessions put a whole new perspective on the labour process and birth. It put both me and my partner in our power, more so my partner! Leaving her feeling so empowered and in control. As a hypnotherapist myself, there were still so many eye-opening moments, tools and perspectives given that has made me view this time round so differently. My partner and I are super excited for the birth of our second child, and we can’t thank Lindsey enough for all the support and work!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!”
– Rob
“Our sessions with Lindsey were truly eye opening and enlightening for our first pregnancy journey.
Her support and knowledge allowed us to better understand the birth process, prepare us for what is to come and make us feel confident as a team. We looked forward to our sessions and the materials we have been provided with have meant we can continue with our journey and learning at home.”
– Rebecca & Nick
“The Hypnobirthing course was beyond helpful. Just taking the time to go through birth and mindset around it was super impactful. Our lives are busy, so this time was definitely needed. The confidence we’ve both gained having completed the course has given us such a nice feeling going into our second birth.
Absolutely highly recommend as preparation for your birth, not only for you as a mum but for dad too.”
– Kristen & Rob
“Absolutely thrilled with my experience at the My Bump & Chill Relaxation & Hypnobirthing class!
I’ve been following Lindsey’s Instagram since I was about 14 weeks pregnant, her posts are packed with incredibly useful hypnobirthing tips and advice that have guided me throughout my pregnancy. At 34 weeks pregnant, I finally got the chance to attend one of her in person classes. Lindsey’s explanation of Brain Buzzers and their connection to the five senses for promoting oxytocin production leading up to and during labour was fascinating. She also delved into the power of visualisation, leaving me feeling empowered and inspired. I immediately put her tips into action, creating my own visual aids and printing Pinterest vision boards to prepare for my labour and birth. The pregnancy relaxation section of the class was absolutely wonderful, leaving me feeling incredibly refreshed and calm. To top it off, each attendee received a lovely goody bag with a relaxation script and some other delightful bits – a fantastic added touch.
If you are pregnant and based in Leeds or the surrounding areas, I would definitely recommend popping along to one of Lindsey’s classes. It was an amazing experience, and I left feeling more confident and prepared for the journey ahead.”
– Cloe
“Thanks for a lovely class today, I really enjoyed it and found it very beneficial. I found it a safe space to gain knowledge, feel heard, feel reassured and to unwind from the day to day chaos in preparation for birth. I will definitely recommend My Bump and Chill and I will keep an eye out for your other events.”
– Claire
“The My Bump & Chill class was a very chilled and safe space. I felt supported and comfortable. It was nice to talk through some worries and concerns without judgement and I cant wait for the next class.”
– Anu
“We really enjoyed our 2 hours with you. We are both feeling prepared and confident. Nothing felt rushed, everything was explained really well. Terry was reluctant to come as he wasn’t sure what he was going to get out of it but was so glad he did. He has even been telling his friends how beneficial he found it!
Thank you so much.”
– Aimee
“I was in labour for 24 hours, and I could not have got through it without what I learnt with you, so thank you!
I took the private hypnobirthing course with Lindsey during my second pregnancy and I wish I had known about hypnobirthing sooner. Due to the tips and techniques I learnt through hypnobirthing I was able to have a much more relaxed and controlled labour and birth. I felt much more prepared and knowledgeable for this birth and it enabled me to have more of a say on how my labour and birth went and made it a much more positive experience. Lindsey provided some amazing audios which helped me create a more positive mindset and become really relaxed. I would have the best sleep after listening to the audios.
I was unsure at first about whether hypnobirthing would work for me as I didn’t know too much about it, but I would now recommend it to anyone.”
– Naomi
“Where do I start, this is my second baby and I really wish I had done Hypnobirthing with my first.
I feel so much more prepared, excited and in a positive mindset this time around. I didn’t have a great time with my first and doing Hypnobirthing this time around has really helped me get into a positive head space and feel excited to do it all again.
Lindsey is amazing, she taught me so much about my choices, using my own voice and what really matters for me, my husband and my baby during birth. I am using some of the techniques we have been shown, she has provided me with hypnosis relaxation audios, which I have been listening to every night. I can’t tell you the amazing nights sleep that follows once I’ve listened to it, sleep was something I really struggled with.
If you’re on the fence about doing a Hypnobirthing Course then take the leap, I know it has, and will be, the best thing I’ve done for me and my baby. I can’t wait to bring our little girl earth side with a completely positive & excited outlook on my birth journey.”
– Olivia
“I was a little nervous to start this course, not really knowing or understanding what Hypnobirthing was.
I did know how much my partner was invested in it, I came out of my comfort zone and joined in.
I learnt a lot from Lindsey about things I didn’t think about in the whirlwind of my first daughters birth and how I can be of a great support to my partner.
I didn’t realise how important it was to have birth plans prior to birth, so that I know how best I can support her.
Lindsey was very welcoming and made me feel very relaxed in her home, she made sure I was included in all the sections even when it wasn’t necessarily my choices to make she showed me how I can be involved in the decision making.
Lindsey did a hypnosis relaxation at the end of each session, this was something I had told my partner I didn’t really want to do. I didn’t really understand hypnosis and was a little sceptical of this. The hypnosis relaxations were amazing, and I really benefited from them and could see how getting into a relaxed state of mind for my partner can help her with a positive birth.”
– Nathan
“I would like to thank Lindsey for designing and running My Bump and Me, it’s such a fantastic course. The course was brilliant and concise, although we were somewhat unsure beforehand what the course would entail, it was a great experience. It was really nice to learn and share together the roles we both play and to work as a team. It helped my husband understand he has a big role to play in it, not just driving me to the hospital.
The course definitely made us feel more confident about what we wanted from our birthing experience and covers pretty much all aspects that I felt were missing from our antenatal classes. The knowledge we gained will give us the confidence to ask questions, and to be as informed as we can be on what’s happening to make good decisions on what’s right for me, my baby and my labour.
The bonus of having guided hypnosis by a qualified Hypnotherapist at the end of the sessions along with the audio’s was amazing. They helped me instantly relax, reassure me and sometimes fall asleep. Lindsey was brilliant and has been really supportive with any questions. I highly recommend Lindsey and the My Bump and Me course, it’s fantastic value for money.
Thank you for all your help and guidance, it truly made all the difference to our outlook on the whole situation. I am looking forward to a calm, relaxed birth.”
– Maria
“My wife and I attended the Hypnobirthing My Bump and Me course. As a guy, I did think at first, is this more for women than men, do I need to know all this stuff about labour and birth as it doesn’t really involve me.
I have to say it is definitely beneficial for both parents.
There was so much more to the course than I expected, and you can clearly see how much time, care and effort Lindsey has taken to put the course together. We both learned so much from this and the course really does cover every aspect of what you can expect during labour and birth and for whatever birth you are preparing for, what our rights are and more importantly how to relax and embrace the process.
I genuinely enjoyed it and I can safely say had I not done the course I think I’d have been a nervous wreck and all over the place during the labour and birth.
Thank you for everything, I highly recommend this course for any parents to be.”
– Aiden
“Anyone who is considering Hypnobirthing, I can highly recommend.
From my personal experience I can honestly say it was one of the best decisions I made regarding feeling prepared for the birth of my baby. Hypnobirthing gave me a clear focus and was extremely helpful with the pain management during childbirth, the tools and techniques keep me calm and relaxed. It enabled me to channel into my safe place when I needed it the most and this felt wonderful.
Lindsey is a fantastic Hypnotherapist which added to my comfort when deciding on who to work with, she offered me a calm, welcoming safe environment. Hypnobirthing is worth every penny, it’s such an incredible technique which I used during my pregnancy, labour, birth and now as a new mummy.
Thanks Lindsey!”
