About Me
Hello! I'm Taylor Kelly, a mother of two living in Amelia Island, FL.
​
My journey into the world of childbirth transformed 15 years ago when I watched the documentary The Business of Being Born while pursuing my degree in Human Development and Family Studies at Penn State University.
This eye-opening documentary made me realize how much essential (and basic) information is not common knowledge shared with women before, during, or after pregnancy and birth.
​
When I became pregnant, I committed myself to learning about evidence-based practices in childbirth. That’s when I discovered HypnoBirthing—a method that aligns with the physiological science of birth and advocates for informing women to make educated decisions about their pregnancies and births, which is an experience that many women seek but often struggle to achieve in today’s medical environment.​
​
Through my courses, I aim to share the knowledge and tools to help you navigate your pregnancy and birth. I’m here to guide you in playing an active role in your birth story, ensuring you have the resources you need for a positive and fulfilling experience that you leave with peace and, of course, your precious little one(s).
​
I am so excited to work with with you!

Kelly, mom to Makenna
"Taylor is incredible! She is so calming and knowledgeable and passionate about empowering women to have peaceful births.
The education that I received helped me to understand what my options are. She made me feel so empowered to ask questions and know what I want going into my birthing experience!
My whole outlook changed for the better. I couldn't recommend Taylor or this course enough!" - June 2024
The Latest Evidence-Based Information
One of the most surprising takeaways from my class is discovering that many (though not all) healthcare providers do not practice according to evidence-based methods proven to improve health outcomes for both mothers and babies. In my HypnoBirthing class, you will learn far more than how to give birth with greater ease and comfort. You will receive information about the latest research and topics that arise throughout pregnancy - which too often catch parents by surprise. Be prepared and know your options with all of the information provided in this course.

Benefits of HypnoBirthing
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) has found that the relaxation techniques taught in HypnoBirthing lead to significantly improved outcomes and should be widely utilized and supported by hospital personnel. Research consistently shows that mothers who practice HypnoBirthing experience many benefits including:
Restored Faith in Birth
Dispell the belief that birth is dangerous with proven relaxation and visualization techniques to eliminate the fear that society has conditioned us to expect with birth.
Significantly Increased Rate of Vaginal Births
Increased comfort in labor with higher rates of vaginal births and lower emergency C-section rates by 50+%.
Eliminate Unnecessary Intervention
Decreased medical intervention including lower use of Pitocin, induction, and AROM.
Easier Birthing Time
​
Significantly shorter length of labors. 45% of HypnoBirths happen in eight hours or less
Fewer complications overall, and reduced incidence of preterm labor and low-weight babies.
Improved Outcomes for Babies
Improved outcomes for baby including higher than average APGAR scores, increased ease of breastfeeding, and fewer breech presentations.
Improved Outcomes for Mom
77% of HypnoBirthing mothers who birthed vaginally did so without epidural anesthesia.
Lower rates of postpartum depression and birth trauma.​
