About Me

Hello, I’m Andrea—a recognised birth and postnatal doula, based in Ealing, West London. I’m also a mother of two: a ballet-loving daughter and a tennis-obsessed son who fill my life with joy, movement, and a whole lot of snacks.

I’ve been working with families for over a decade, offering calm, practical, and loving support through pregnancy, birth, and the early years of motherhood. I trained with Nurturing Birth, and I’ve continued learning through additional training in breastfeeding support, baby massage, nutrition, Ayurvedic postnatal care, and more.

Originally from Hungary, I’ve made my home here in the UK, and I’ve worked with families from many different backgrounds. My role is never to tell you what to do—it’s to walk alongside you with warmth, respect, and steady hands.

I began as a birth doula, but now I focus on postnatal care—supporting mothers and babies after birth, whether your little one is days or months old.

Whether it’s holding the baby while you shower, cooking a nourishing meal, doing the laundry, watching over or entertaining your little one, helping with nursery pickups, or simply being there when everything feels overwhelming—my approach is gentle, flexible, and always centred around your needs.

Testimonials:

“I am delighted to provide a reference for Andrea Soler-Jansik, who supported me and my family for a long time (from 2018-2019 and 2022-2025). She started as a doula with my middle child and we asked her to come back to support us around the birth of our third child. As Andrea became such a welcoming person in our family, she stayed with us for longer (after my third child turned 1 year old) as a nanny and was an invaluable helping hand in supporting our hectic family-life with the three children, including one child with special needs.

As a doula, I have enjoyed Andrea’s engaging style from the moment she started with us: she brings a truly warm and calming presence into the home, making both mother and baby feel at ease. One of the things I appreciated most is her sensitivity to meet all the different needs in our family, both emotional and practical.

Andrea has instinctively responded well to both of my babies and was an invaluable encouragement with breastfeeding. She connects with babies in a gentle and respectful way and adjusts to the rhythm and the moods of the baby in terms of knowing when to offer comfort, stimulation or simply a calm environment. Andrea also made sure to make the sibling(s) feel seen and cared for and a fun and natural way. Her genuine care and attentiveness also stood out in all she did for me as a mother – from thoughtful conversations to offering wholesome meals. Andrea is a wonderful cook. Her food is delicious and nourishing, made with attention to dietary preferences and postpartum needs. Having someone who could provide such a nutritious food was an incredible booster during those early days after birth.

I wholeheartedly recommend Andrea to any family seeking a compassionate, skilled and deeply supportive doula. She brought warmth, wisdom and care and I feel very fortunate to have had her by our side.” Marlies.

“Andrea came into our lives when my daughter Reina was a newborn. I thought we’d have her for a couple of weeks—just a bit of support in those early days. But she stayed with us for a year and a half. That’s how special she is.

She didn’t just help me—she became part of our family. She loved Reina like her own, and Reina adored her. I’ve never trusted anyone as much as I trusted Andrea. That’s not easy for me. But with her, it just felt right.

She’s so calm, so kind. Nothing is ever too much. She’d look after Reina, prepare us dinners for the week, hoover, hang laundry, drop off so many Amazon returns to the post office - she even did nursery drop offs when Reina started doing short days there. She never complained, and was always happy to take instruction and do things in the particular way I asked (I’m a very fussy person!).

I honestly don’t know who I’d be as a mother without her. She gave me space to breathe and rest, and was instrumental in helping me get back to my career postpartum." Cat

"Andrea’s calm & warm atmosphere provided great support & comfort to our family. During late pregnancy Andrea’s practical nature helped me to get organised for the arrival of my baby. Offering guidance & alternative therapies to help with pregnancy discomforts, Homeopathic remedies & massage kept me very relaxed. Once my baby arrived Andrea made me nutritious & delicious foods and supported me with breastfeeding & any post natal concerns. Andrea is kind & knowledgable but most importantly I completely trusted her. It is rare to find someone who really loves their work & does it with such generosity."  Alice

"Andrea’s warm and gentle style as a doula immediately put me at ease. She was so genuinely loving with our baby boy, fitting in easily into our space and supporting me with such care from the tiniest things (like adding salad to my lunch for me!) to giving me advice when our boy was growing and changing his routines. All of this was so appreciated! Andrea is a loving soul, a breath of fresh air and she gives a wonderful head massage too!! Thank you so much for all your care, lovely Andrea"  Tarryn

"Andrea was my post-natal doula when my first child was born.  She was very caring and provided all the help we needed in order to ensure that baby and I were both well looked after during those critical early days, such as cooking some tasty meals for us when we barely had time to sleep.  She is also a good listener and being able to talk to her about everything from the pregnancy, my birth experience and the baby was itself a great recovery process for me. Further, she helped me establish my breastfeeding, providing both physical guidance as well as other educational resources such as video clips and articles. Her knowledge in newborns and her natural affection for babies made me feel well supported at a time when our close family was abroad and could not be around to help. I am now a happy breastfeeding mum and I am very glad we had Andrea with us."   Elena

"If you are looking for a Doula, stop looking! I had such a positive experience with Andrea by my side. My journey would not have been the same without her! Throughout my pregnancy and after my son’s birth she provided me and my family with amazing support and guidance. She is very knowledgeable about babies and post-natal care and gave me lots of information which made me feel more confident. She helped me with breastfeeding, she cooked amazingly nutritious meals, she taught me some baby massage techniques which helped with colic, and last but not east she gave me some wonderful Indian head massages. She has a very soft and gentle approach, and my baby boy was very happy with her. Andrea is truly passionate about supporting mums and families during this special time and she is great at it. It was a pleasure to have her around and I cannot recommend her enough!" Emilie
