Get to know me 

Warmest congratulations on your pregnancy! I'm Alice, and I'm truly passionate about supporting families through their birthing journeys.

So who am I?

Hi, I’m Alice! After spending the first few years of my doula journey based in East London, I’ve now crossed the river and settled into South East London. I live here with my partner and our cat, and when I’m not supporting new families, you’ll usually find me cooking up a storm, practicing yoga, or cycling around my new neighborhood.

The bridge: evidence meets intuition

My approach to birth is rooted in a balance of two worlds: the head and the heart. With a background in Biology, I have a natural affinity for evidence-based research and the fascinating mechanics of the human body. But my experience in the birth room has taught me that data is only half the story. The other half is intuition. I believe that when you are armed with the right facts, you can quiet the noise of the outside world and truly listen to what your body and your baby are telling you.

My Passion

I am deeply passionate about physiological birth. I believe in the transformative power of a birth that is allowed to unfold in its own time and rhythm. To support this, I bring a unique blend of tools to our sessions:

• Body Ready Method® certified: I use functional movement and alignment to help your body find the space it needs for a smoother, more efficient physiological birth.
• KGHypnobirthing teacher: I help you build a mindset of calm and confidence, bridging the gap between physical preparation and emotional readiness.
• Navigating the system: I have extensive experience supporting families across the spectrum—including those navigating "higher risk" labels like gestational diabetes or high BMI.

Why work with me?

Whether you are planning a home birth or navigating a more complex hospital path, I will be by your side every step of the way. 

I’m here to point you toward the evidence so you can make informed choices, while always holding space for the magic, the mystery, and the deep physical intuition that birth requires.

What my previous clients said working with me 

Giving birth for the first time is the most life changing event that a first time mum will go through. My advice to anyone thinking about hiring a doula is to do it - don’t think twice. Alice has a wealth of knowledge and is very understanding and non judgemental about the type of birth that you envisage, it is so obvious how passionate Alice is about birth. When I fell pregnant I did not even consider that I would give birth without pain relief. But through all of our sessions with Alice, research and practicing hypnobirthing, I decided I wanted to try experience a physiological birth (again with no pressure or judgement from alice) and I ended up being able to give birth to our baby in the bath on only gas & air. I am so grateful to Alice for the support she provided both me and my partner. During birth Alice was calm and supportive, and also acted as our advocate with the medical staff. I am now a huge advocate for talking about birth in a positive way and thankful to Alice for helping us see how beautiful birth can be, too often we only hear about the traumatic stories! We highly recommend Alice’s services. - CM

“Alice was always available and that she was there for me was the most significant thing about her support and help. It didn't matter if I had a question or if I just needed someone to vent about the poor care I received at the hospital, Alice always listened, answered my messages, and somehow knew what I needed to hear to keep me going. She helped me to down and regain my confidence every time. I could always reach her, for which I could never be grateful enough.
[Having Alice as my doula] was the best decision I could have made for myself during pregnancy. I reached out to Alice at the very beginning of my journey and always felt like her being there for me as my doula was the best thing that could have happened to me. I honestly think every pregnant woman should have a doula, their support is absolutely invaluable.” - AHF

“I debated whether to get a doula but as I was quite anxious about the prospect of a birth I thought it may be helpful and with the benefit of hindsight I’m so glad I made the decision to get a doula and that I picked Alice.
The prep sessions in the run up to the birth were really helpful. I found it really helpful to be able to talk through the different aspects and prep for birth with someone and to have someone to help navigate and digest all the information that is available.
In the end my daughter ended up arriving slightly prematurely (at 36 weeks) without Alice’s support I suspect I would have had a total panic at the prospect of an early labour but the prep sessions, including a last minute one on the day my waters broke really helped me stay calm and feel as confident as I could be in the circumstances.
Alice was also very kind, flexible and accommodating and made herself available notwithstanding the fact she wasn’t officially yet “on call.”
In terms of the labour itself there were a couple of complications which meant my “Plan A” birth plan wasn’t possible, but the fact that I had spoken to Alice about my preferences was really helpful both in terms of informing my own decision process during labour but it also allowed Alice to gently challenge and questions some of the recommendations from the doctors - as we were beginning to go down a path of fairly significant intervention (ventouse, forceps etc.).
Alice helped me have the confidence to ask for a little more time before additional medical procedures were performed and in the end I was able to give birth with fairly minimal medical intervention - I have no doubt this would not have been the result without Alice, as such I genuinely believe I had a tangibly more positive birth experience as a result of the preparation in advance and the support received on the day. A huge thank you.” - BA

“Alice was my doula for my second pregnancy, and first homebirth. 
In addition to being very knowledgeable and committed to her role, she has a positive attitude. Alice stays extremely calm during birth and she has a lot of empathy.  She helped me stay confident to birth my baby with no healthcare provider present at the time of delivery. I felt very lucky to have Alice by my side during this special moment. ” - ZF
