Welcome to The Wise Hippo Kent and Surrey
Hypnobirthing, baby massage, baby yoga classes, and toddler yoga with sensory play
I'm Sarah from Sevenoaks and am the founder of the Wise Hippo Kent and Surrey. I have three beautiful children born using the Wise Hippo hypnobirthing and antenatal programme.
If you are looking for hypnobirthing classes near me, or baby classes near me, then I can help, as I have lots of experience helping pregnant mums and dads, and I can help you through your pregnancy and at your labour and birth, and then when your baby is here.
I love my classes to be cosy in my family home or your home within Kent, Surrey or London so you feel at ease and get what you want from them. I'm here to support you through your pregnancy and at my wonderful mum, baby and toddler group classes, including baby massage, baby yoga and children's / toddler yoga.

Hi, I'm Sarah and thank you so much for visiting my website.
If you can't find what you are looking for then please message me on the link below.
I'm Sarah and from Sevenoaks, I have over 8 years experience with pregnancy worries, anxieties and helping people with their labour and birth.
I have three children and I had an emergency caesarean with my first and then 2 vaginal births, I have also experienced baby loss. I look at all my baby's births positively because of The Wise Hippo hypnobirthing programme, although my last birth with my little girl was such a wonderful, incredible experience I honestly would love to give birth again.
With three children, I have done lots of classes and experienced colic, teething, sleep-ness nights, poo-namis and the rest. My baby classes are a place to discuss all these things with other mums whilst also playing with your babies, from new-born babies up till 5 years old.
I always make sure that you get the best from a class, and most of all, that they are fun.
The Wise Hippo private one to one hypnobirthing classes
You may have had a traumatic birth experience with a previous baby and now are scared about giving birth again, or this may be your first baby and you are worried about your labour and birth after hearing lots of horrible scary stories from your friends and family.
I can come to your house and teach you and your birth partner(s) so you feel calm and relaxed as I help you overcome any worries, fears and stress you are having in your pregnancy, labour or birth.
I visit Tonbridge, Biggin Hill, Westerham, Borough Green, Swanley, Tunbridge Wells, Bromley, Orpington, Bexley, Maidstone, Oxted, Caterham, Redhill, Reigate and many other locations in Kent, Surrey or South East London, or you can come to mine in Sevenoaks.
"Without your hypnobirthing course Sarah, I wouldn't have felt as positive about my birth as I do!" - Alice, First time mum, Kent
"We would 100% recommend Sarah to anyone who’s thinking about using hypnobirthing through their pregnancy and labour. Sarah is really friendly, incredibly informative and beyond the hypnobirthing techniques, has provided us with some really invaluable information.
She answered any questions or concerns we had about having our first baby and really put us at ease. All the sessions were tailored to our birthing preferences, and the atmosphere created was very positive and relaxed. Thanks to Sarah, we were truly prepared for the big day and put all techniques we've learnt into action.
I would highly recommend her to anyone looking into hypnobirthing."
Emma, First time mum, Seal
The Wise Hippo group hypnobirthing classes in Sevenoaks
Are you pregnant and looking to meet more mums in your local area, or have you just moved to Sevenoaks and surrounding areas in Kent and don't know anyone, then a group hypnobirthing and antenatal class is a great way to make friends for you and your birth partner.
"My partner, who was slightly sceptical to begin with has benefitted so much from the course and walks out of the sessions feeling so much more confident and informed.
Cannot thank you enough Sarah, you’re a star!"
Fifi, Larkfield
Baby massage and Baby Yoga in Sevenoaks
I run baby massage with sensory play over 4 sessions, which provides a lovely opportunity to continue the bond with your baby, whilst relaxing, helping babies to develop and meeting other mums with a cup of tea in Sevenoaks.
I also offer baby yoga with sensory play over 4 weeks. It is a great chance to meet other mums with babies to become friends and share all things baby together.
I also offer private baby massages and baby yoga classes, this can be in your home around Kent, or at my home in Sevenoaks. I also spend time with mums from antenatal groups like NCT, where I can come to one of your homes and run baby massage classes or you can come to me as a group of mums and babies.
"My little one loved the classes and the post class naps were incredible!" - Katie, Kent
Why choose our hypnobirthing and antenatal classes?
Hypnobirthing can help your manage stress hormones, such as adrenalin, and reduce anxiety, which can lead you to have a calmer birth. Managing stress enables you to reduce fear and pain experienced during labour, and hypnobirthing has been shown to make labour shorter. Hypnobirthing and birth preparation can benefit you after birth too, with evidence showing that it can lower your chance of postnatal depression.
Hypnobirthing can also help your birth partner play a more active role during labour and feel good about your birth.
Our classes have made over 500 parents feel that the hypnobirthing and antenatal education they receive from their incredibly supportive Wise Hippo teacher was invaluable. It is the dedication, knowledge, and passion that makes The Wise Hippo Birthing Programme a popular birth choice when looking for great antenatal preparation. Also, I have used hypnobirthing for my three children and have had positive birth experiences, and I would love to share that with you too.
See our amazing stats here, and it is very clear to see that no matter what type of birth was achieved, most parents felt positive and extremely satisfied with the outcome.
