Thank you for visiting my profile.
I'm Jen and live in East London with my partner and three girls. I love to cook, but realistically a fried egg on toast is my go to. In fact just give me bread, butter and salt and I'm a very content woman! I love to read with usually five plus books on the go, but equally you can find me aimlessly scrolling social media in those rare moments of calm. I try to fight it, but I love to plan and organise and always have a never ending to do list. Friends, clients and colleagues always say I bring a calm energy (though like a swan, serene on the top whilst paddling furiously underneath!) I feel passionately that women should be given the right information and facts to make informed choices in making their own personal decisions as to what births they would like. I want you to feel empowered with those decisions and most importantly, that you have the kindness and compassion you need during your pregnancy and birth. You should feel safe and supported during your birth, trust your inner voice, know that you can use it or when you don't want to, that I will be there to champion for you. Whatever it is you want, be that your intended plan or whether you changed your mind 10 seconds earlier............. know that whatever feels right at the time is right for you in the moment. I will truly care about you and for you.
"She was so reliable and made us feel really heard and cared for. We felt like a team from the get go!" "Jen just asked me what I needed and facilitated it – I really can’t imagine having anyone more amazing with us." EDR
"She was exactly the sort of person we wanted. Knowledgeable about the kind of birth we wanted, empathetic, straight forward, easy to relate to." MS
"She was really calm and strong for us when the birth was difficult. She kept me focused and she kept me feeling supported and kept my husband from unravelling" She is very calm and centred, easy going, makes you feel comfortable and in safe hands, very informative and kind and empathetic" MS
"Jen’s guidance during pregnancy helped me to recalibrate my expectations of birth, and make better choices for myself and my family. She has a wealth of knowledge which she imparts at the right time. I wish I could turn back time and bring Jen along to my first birth."AR
"Most importantly, I felt heard and understood by Jen, which is a testament to her empathetic nature. Jen’s support meant the birth was a very positive experience for me and helped me to overcome any trauma I had from my first birth." AR
"I interviewed 4 doulas in total. When I spoke to Jen I warmed to her immediately. She was very generous with the advice she provided and I felt that she would be a great support to me through the birth process (both planning during pregnancy and the birth itself)." "I found Jen to be really warm and supportive. She definitely supported me in my wishes, particularly when plans changed. It was like having my own personal birth guru!" EW
"We initially weren't certain about hiring a doula, but after interviewing several others, Jen immediately stood out. Throughout the pregnancy and birth, she offered unwavering support and guidance. We were truly grateful for her presence, especially during our home birth. Jen's holistic approach was evident in the thoughtful touches, like the essential oils she provided. We wholeheartedly recommend Jen and would certainly enlist her services again for any future additions to our family. We are forever grateful" JL
