Hello and congratulation for your pregnancy. I am super glad you found me here.
I am a Brazilian who was born in France, and lives in London. I started as a Fertility Doula over 10 years ago, providing guidance on life style, nutrition, IVF, miscarriages... Then my clients would get pregnant and supporting their birth as a Birth Doula was spontaneous. Here you can find some reviews in my google account, if you feel like checking them: https://g.co/kgs/r4c4yGk
When I am asked what I bring to my role as a doula, my response gravitates towards, “listening skills”, “evidence based information”, and “love”. Having had a doula myself, a horrendous birth, and a fantastic one gave me a broad perspective. I truly believe that preparing for birth can make a big difference as well as having a person with birth experience to advocate for us and help navigating the health system.
Often people ask me why I have changed my career from being a corporate lawyer to become a doula. Well, I find joy in helping others and connecting with people. It also enables me to balance career and enjoying my two children. Finally, I do believe everyone should have someone to support them at birth when they are vulnerable and going through such a memorable moment.
Being certified as a Gentle Birth instructor, in Positive Psychology and as a Health coach specialised on Pregnancy gave me the informational and emotional foundation. I also volunteer at Happy Baby Community to support vulnerable women in labour.
I would love to know your story, wishes and worries. Please do not hesitate to contact.
