About Me
Please note, I am an experienced doula and will be sitting the IBCLC exam next year. As I only recently opted to go through DoulaUK’s recognition process, I am listed as a mentored doula. This does not reflect a lack of experience supporting families or births.
Hi there, I’m Imani. I’m an experienced birth and postnatal doula offering comforting and confidential support within London. I’m committed to honouring your preferences in ways that make you feel seen and cared for, and am passionate about protecting your peace without overshadowing or disempowering you.
I’ll tend to you with respect and consideration as we co-create your ideal birth journey, and hold space for you to practice your version of parenthood without judgement.
Raised in a house of healers, I draw from several years of birthing support experience and gender justice work. I recognise your innate power as a parent and the value that continuous, caring support will have on your birth journey. Guided by your baby and body, I will remain in your corner to ensure that you feel valued, are comfortable/safe and remain empowered.
With so much of what makes you feel safe being shaped by your identity, I understand the importance of considering your cultural, religious, gender and sexual preferences by default and not as afterthoughts. I love the richness of diversity and will, no doubt, enjoy immersing myself in the practices of your community.
Previous families have described me as “a balanced source of emotional support, intuitive wisdom and evidence-based information” and “an invaluable point of stillness for me to tap into”.
I’m based in Brixton and co-parent a wonderful 4 year old. I love reading, working with nature, and cultivating connections.
If you think I may be the right doula for you, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
