Birth Doula
What Does A Birth Doula Do?
A doula is someone who is there to support you during one of the most significant and transformative life events, your pregnancy journey. Through sharing space we build a relationship in which you feel safe, able to open up and be vulnerable through a truly intimate process of bringing new life into the world. I match your trust in me with respect and care, intuitively flowing with the way you feel. No matter where this beautiful journey takes you, I’ll be there supporting you in a judgement-free way.
Your Journey
One of the central parts of my role is to make sure your voice is heard. Your preferences, concerns and wishes are my priority, and I will do my very best to ensure they are listened too. As well as one-to-one physical & emotional support, there’s also real structure to what I do so you have the care you need. Naturopathic guidance during your pregnancy, Ayurvedic body treatments, antenatal preparation sessions, birth attendance, and post natal support are offerings designed to provide the holistic approach you deserve.
I’m someone who will care for you and support you in ways you need. I have a background in perinatal mental health and birth trauma, and I know how to find the words and actions that allow you to find peace deep within yourself. No matter where your pregnancy journey goes, I will be your doula supporting you at each stage, holding your hand through the twist and turns as you transition from maiden to mother.
It will be an honour to walk by your side.
