I am Emily, Mother of three, a Doula, a powerlifter and a lover of cats. I am a women’s strength coach focussing on pre- and post-natal conditioning and specialise in pelvic health.  I am a strong advocate for choice in women’s health. The role of a Doula is to provide support, reliable information and practical help to both the mother and her birth partner, and to facilitate a safe and loving birthing environment. As your birth doula I will be led by you. I will listen without judgement and help you to explore your birth preferences. I can’t predict or guarantee outcomes, but I aim to get you to a place where you feel confident and empowered to make informed choices. During your labour I will hold and protect your birth space and ensure that your voice is heard. I will bring my bag of goodies to keep you warm, comfortable and nourished. I believe that if you are well informed and prepared for birth , your instincts, strength and self-belief will get you through this amazing, intense and challenging time.
