My Story

Hiya!

I’m Jacqueline: a mum and a grandmother to three adorable small people. I’m also a clinical hypno-psychotherapist, a complementary therapist and journalist. I have trained in hypnobirthing, aromatherapy, baby massage, hypnosis for fertility and postnatal support. I am an accredited Birthing Awareness 3 Step Rewind practitioner and can help parents and birth partners to heal from pregnancy and/or birth trauma.

As a qualified adult education teacher, I have taught complementary therapy to qualification level in adult education centres in east London and Essex. I’m a member of the National Society of Talking Therapies, the General Hypnotherapy Register, the Complimentary and Natural Healthcare Council and the International Association of Infant Massage. I hold a current DBS certificate.

I have been teaching baby massage since I trained in 2006 so I have had a lot of experience in this area. It’s strange to think that the babies who came to my first massage classes are now 19 years old and young adults. I now teach both 1:1 sessions and small group baby massage classes in people’s homes because I know that, after a caesarean, or as a new parent, it can be difficult to get out and about. Having a couple of friends who all would like to learn how to massage their baby with you in your home can be be so much better. If you live in Bristol or within five miles of Downend, I will come to you.
