Hello and congratulation on your pregnancy. I am so glad you found me here.
I’m a Brazilian birth and fertility doula with over 10 years’ experience supporting families. I offer birth doula support across London and fertility support both in London and online. I can help you understand your options around induction, home birth, epidural, VBAC, practical pain-management techniques, birth biomechanics, caesarean birth and navigating NHS maternity care. Support is available in English and Portuguese, and you can find independent reviews of my work on Google.
My doula work began in fertility support in 2016, and I first trained as a birth doula in 2019. My training in GentleBirth, Positive Psychology and Health Coaching specialised in pregnancy gives me a broad foundation for both informational and emotional support. I also volunteer as a doula with Happy Baby Community, supporting vulnerable women during labour and birth.
What I bring to my role as a doula is experience, an open-minded approach and evidence-informed guidance. My own journey through infertility, miscarriage, IVF and two very different births has given me a broad perspective on how varied pregnancy and birth can be.
During labour, I adapt my support to what feels helpful to you in the moment. This may include reassurance, massage, breathing guidance, movement and positioning, practical comfort measures, and helping you think through your options and feel confident expressing your wishes when decisions arise.
Whether you are hoping for a physiological birth, planning an epidural, preparing for an induction, VBAC, home birth or caesarean, my role is to help you feel informed, respected and cared for.
I support partners too, helping them feel more confident and involved, and I work with solo mums who may especially value having a familiar and continuous source of support throughout labour.
People often ask why I left a career as a corporate tax lawyer to become a doula. The simple answer is that I find real meaning in helping and connecting with people. After many years in the corporate world, I realised I wanted my work to be centred around something much more human.
I offer single birth-preparation sessions from £150, with birth packages ranging from £1,800 to £2,400 depending on the level of postnatal support included. If you would like to talk through your plans, concerns or what kind of support might be useful for you, you are very welcome to get in touch for a discovery call.
