Birth & Postnatal Doula

Congratulations on your pregnancy! 

As a birth and postnatal doula, I am here to provide support, guidance, and encouragement to help you and your family navigate the journey of pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood. Whether you are a first-time parent or have experienced childbirth before, I am here to help you feel empowered and confident as you prepare for the arrival of your little one. As a birth doula, I offer comprehensive support throughout labour and delivery, including emotional and physical support, advocacy, and education. My goal is to help you have a positive birth experience that meets your individual needs and preferences. 

In addition to birth support, I also offer postnatal doula services to help you adjust to life with a new baby. This includes assistance with breastfeeding, newborn care, and emotional support during the postpartum period. As a postnatal doula, I am committed to providing compassionate care and practical support to help you and your family thrive. I believe that every family deserves to have a positive and empowering birth and postpartum experience, and I am dedicated to helping you achieve that. Please browse my website to learn more about my services, philosophy, and approach. 

I would be honored to support you on this journey and look forward to hearing from you soon. This is your journey, and I will be there to hold your hand, to listen to you and guide you to information to help support your decision making if needed.   Your baby, your body, YOUR choice and I will stand beside you all the way.  Birth package
