Hello everyone, I thought it was time I introduced myself a bit more.
I’m Helen and I’m the founder of Amethyst Yoga and Birth. I am a mum to two beautiful girls and we live in Leicester in the U.K.
I have been a midwife for over 20 years and I have worked in all areas of the service, including as a consultant midwife. I am passionate about choice and informed decision making and I have lots of experience in supporting women and families navigate the maternity care system.
I am a hypnobirthing teacher now offering classes across Leicester and South Leicestershire. I believe hypnobirthing is for everyone - no matter where you birth or how you birth. I am excited to offer my wealth of experience as a midwife and my knowledge and expertise in hypnobirthing to offer antenatal and hypnobirthing classes tailored to your individual needs.
I have recently qualified as a women’s yoga therapist and wellness coach. Yoga has helped me immensely in my life, as I navigate the stresses and strains. As a working mum and woman in my 40’s, I understand the challenges women face and I want to help you to use yoga as a tool and lifestyle choice to support you in your life. I hope to launch classes later this year, so keep posted!
