Services

Before you decide to book me, I like to meet up with you and just have a chat over a cup of tea. You need to make sure I’m going to be the best person to become a part of your support circle.

I offer as many antenatal visits as you need to discuss all your ideas, experiences and dreams. I like to also meet your partner/birth partner too and chat about how I can also help them to support you. Through these meetings we can build on our trust and connection as we prepare for your special day.

I also provide unlimited text and email support throughout your pregnancy up to six weeks after your baby is born.

If this is not your first baby, we can talk through and explore your feelings about any previous birth experiences.

We can discuss all the things that are important to you around your birth itself. We will look at options for pain management, how to manage your labour if it takes a different direction to what you hope for and address any worries or questions you may have.

I encourage you to write down your birth preferences and can guide you with this.

I like to dedicate one visit to postnatal planning. This precious time, commonly referred to as the fourth trimester, is often overlooked and planning this time is crucial for a smooth transition to parenthood or growing your family. During this time we work on a plan that’s tailored to your and your family’s individual needs.

I will be on call for you from 38 weeks until you give birth. This means that in that time you can contact me 24 hours a day, 7 days a week until the birth of your baby.

My doula bag will be packed and by the door, I will never be more than an hour from your home, and my phone will be on day and night. Should you go into labour before 38 weeks, whilst I cannot guarantee that I will be able to attend, I will do my absolute best to be there with you.

I will be at your side as soon as you need me, and for as long as you need me. I will hold you in a safe and supportive space of love and reassurance, and remind you to relax to the knowing that your body is capable and strong.

I will help you maintain control, encourage you to make informed choices for yourself and your baby and will always respect your wishes.

I will remain with you after your baby is born and support you for as long as is required. Once you are all settled comfortably, I will leave you to enjoy your precious time together.

I am here to provide you with practical and emotional support, as well as support with feeding your baby. I will visit as you need me, usually once or twice.

These postnatal visits will also give us an opportunity to reflect together on your birth experience, celebrate your new baby and talk through any questions or issues that may have arisen.

I also provide unlimited text and email support up to six weeks after your baby is born. I can also signpost you to relevant services if you need extra support.
