I'm Elle, a birth doula and hypnobirthing teacher based in Stroud, Gloucestershire. I combine birth education and support with astrology and birth charts, which takes your birth prep to an even deeper level - ensuring you are knowledgeable and informed, but also confident in yourself, your instincts, and your own unique power.

I offer face to face and virtual support with a range of doula care packages to support you and your needs. I have also created a hypnobirthing course, and stand alone sessions such as birth planning and postpartum planning. I ensure my services cover all bases and give you all the essential information and support to best help you prepare for birth, and after.

I support families in Gloucestershire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Oxfordshire, Somerset, and more. I am happy to travel an hour to you, but if you live further than that please do get in touch as it may still be possible for us to work together. My doula care packages range from £1000-£2750.

A bit about me and why I'm here...

When I became pregnant with my son in 2022, I was terrified of birth. My cousin told me about hypnobirthing and her births and I didn't believe it was possible. The more I learnt about birth, the more it blew my mind. I had a really incredible birth experience, and I knew I needed to share all of the amazing things I had learnt. I did my Hypnobirthing Teacher Training with KG Hypnobirthing in Spring 2023, then my Doula training in Summer 2024 with Red Tent. 

It wasn't just learning about birth that helped me. I know that looking at my birth chart and using astrology and other spiritual practises during my pregnancy helped to take my birth prep even further. Your birth chart captures the sky the moment you are born, and is completely unique to who you are. Learning about mine brought me so much healing and acceptance, which built more confidence and trust in myself, my needs, and my intuition - all which are so so important for birth and motherhood.

So I have included birth charts and spirituality within my services! I know how valuable having this knowledge is, and what a positive impact it can have on you, and I feel it is so important to share. I'll share lots of journal prompts, meditations, spiritual practices, crystals, cards, and keep you up to date with moon magic and other important astrological events. As we get to know each other more, and I get to understand your birth chart more, I'll share more information about it with you. And I'll even provide a little keepsake of your baby's birth chart once they are born!

My main aim as your doula is to support you. To be there every step of the way, sharing my knowledge and expertise, but also helping you to go within - to connect with your true self, your true needs, and to see you stand in your own power. 

I would love to support you on this beautiful journey into motherhood. Please feel free to visit my website, instagram, or send me an email or DM and let's chat! I look forward to connect with you.
