My 'why'

​

After 2 vastly different pregnancy and postpartum experiences, I felt inspired to train to help other new parents navigate the confusing and sometimes daunting maternity services and infant feeding support. 

​

As a mentored Doula with Developing Doulas, I am dedicated to providing personalised and compassionate support to expectant parents and their families, helping them to navigate the many decisions and emotions that come with bringing a new life into the world. 

​

I bring a wealth of passion, knowledge, personal experience and expertise to each client interaction. Whether you are looking for pregnancy, birth or postpartum knowledge and support, I'm here to help guide and assist you every step of the way. 

​

I believe birth is a sacred and incredibly individual experience, and I am committed to honoring your individual preferences and desires. 

​

I look forward to learning more about you and having the opportunity to work with you to help make your birth experience the most positive and empowered it can be. Contact me to learn more about my services and how I can support you on your journey to motherhood.

What is a 'Mentored Doula'?

I’ve been supporting people during pregnancy and postpartum on an informal basis over the last 2yrs, including leading an evidence based/informed choice due date group for July 2023 with over 1.2k members and training to provide volunteer breastfeeding support to new mums.

 

It has been whilst supporting these new parents that I realised I wanted to do this on a more professional basis and set about doing more training in addition to working on becoming a ‘Recognised Doula’ on the Doula UK website.

 

During this transition period I am a ‘Mentored Doula’ which means I’m always going to have support of a more experienced Doula to support me and debrief clients.

 

So why does this benefit you?

It means that you get all the compassionate support I can offer, whilst knowing someone with years of experience is there to support me in the background, all for a reduced fee.

 

I have access to a diverse range of resources and having heavily self studied birth, hypnobirthing, postpartum and infant feeding in my own time since my eldest son was born, have full confidence that I can help you make informed choices for your pregnancy, birth, postpartum and beyond. If I’m not too sure about something, I’ll tell you that, then make it my mission to find out the information or find you someone to speak to that can help.

​

I’m offering a discount on all my packages for a limited time only whilst I am transitioning from ‘Mentored’ to ‘Recognised’ with Doula UK.
