Birth & Postnatal Doula | Hypnobirthing Teacher | Co-Founder of The Doula Training Foundation

Hello beautiful...

Are you preparing to welcome your baby and finding yourself caught between excitement and anxiety?
Wishing for a birth that feels sacred, supported, and strong but unsure how to make that a reality?
You’re in the right place.

I’m Jemma...doula, mother, mentor, hypnobirthing teacher, and passionate advocate for calm, confident births and deeply supported postpartum experiences.

I support families across Cheshire, the Llŷn Peninsula, and surrounding areas through pregnancy, birth, and beyond. Whether you're planning a home birth, water birth, or navigating the system after a previous birth trauma, I offer the personalised, heart-led care that helps you feel safe, heard, and fully supported.

🤍 Why families choose me

Because birth is too important to feel like something you just get through.

I’m here to walk beside you, offering clear information, emotional steadiness, and practical tools so you can approach your birth feeling empowered, informed, and utterly capable. My clients say they feel “held,” not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually too.

When we work together, I can help you:

• Understand your rights and choices in the maternity system
• Create a birth plan that truly reflects your values
• Feel confident and calm with hypnobirthing tools
• Support your birth partner to feel ready too
• Debrief and process previous birth experiences (if needed)
• Feel truly nurtured in the early weeks with your baby

✨ A little bit about me…

My journey started in 1999 when I trained as a student midwife in some of the UK’s busiest hospitals. But it didn’t take long to realise I couldn’t offer the kind of woman-centred care I believed in from within the system. After the birth of my daughter in 2009, I found my calling as a doula.

Since then, I’ve supported hundreds of families as they prepare for and navigate one of life’s most powerful transformations. I bring to your birth space:

• A solid foundation in the physiology of birth
• A trauma-informed, holistic approach
• Practical wisdom, calm energy, and a fierce belief in your strength

I’m also the co-founder of The Doula Training Foundation, mentoring and training the next generation of compassionate, skilled doulas.

When I’m not at a birth or teaching, I’m usually walking barefoot on Welsh beaches, foraging with my daughter, baking bread, or growing food on our family smallholding.

🤱 Postnatal Support

After the birth everything changes, and that change deserves care too.

As your postnatal doula, I’ll be there to support you emotionally and practically in the early weeks. That might mean helping with baby care, offering a space to talk about your birth, supporting feeding, or simply making you tea while you rest. This is your sacred recovery time. I’ll help you honour it.

💡 My philosophy on birth

I believe every woman and birthing person deserves to feel informed, respected, and truly supported, whatever their path to parenthood looks like.

Whether you're planning a peaceful water birth or preparing for a medicalised hospital experience, I’ll meet you where you are. No judgement, just loving presence, evidence-based knowledge, and unwavering support.

Because birth doesn’t have to feel like something to survive. It can be powerful, blissful, and even ecstatic.
