Hello and congratulations!
I’m Jerry, a trauma informed holistic birth doula from Wrexham, North Wales where I live with my husband and our 5 amazing children which we home educate while starting a small scale farm.
My passion is empowered, positive birthing with a holistic approach to achieving this. Sometimes that could come in the form of a free birth, others a well informed cesarean. I believe each birth is unique and my main focus is supporting you and your family to feel heard, prepared, informed and positive about the process, whether this is your first time becoming a mother, 3rd or even 8th time entering into motherhood. I’m here for you!
As a trauma informed doula, I am there to support you through any struggles you have surrounding birth or past experiences that might arise around the pregnancy, birth or postnatally. We can go as slow and gentle into any of your worries as you wish. I follow your pace and focus on you feeling supported. Along with tools and strategies to help build confidence entering this new chapter.
I have supported a number of women from various religions, cultures and races achieve home births, water births, freebirths, preferred hospital births (including midwifery led units) fully informed medicated births, drug free births and informed csections. I feel well adapted to supporting women and their choices.
My own/children’s births range, having had fully medicated hospital births to drug free home births, and having doulas present for my last 3 births, I can safely say from my experience, we are a vital support.
I breastfed all my 5 children over 12 years, 10 years of those was consistent, so I gained alot of first hand experience and knowledge not only in breast feeding, but also tandem feeding along with also babywearing and tandem babywearing using different techniques, carriers and brands.
I trained as a re-evaluation counsellor in 2015 which is a wonderful tool alongside being a trauma informed doula, as I hold skills to help beyond birth & pregnancy. It has also enabled me to build skills with children through play counselling. Which is a wonderful tool when helping siblings adjust to any new addition, and help support you and your baby in those newborn days and beyond.
Along with that, I qualified in my first year into my plant spirit medicine healer training and also soul retrieval ceremonies. These are things I can incorporate into my services additionally if required. I have organised mothers blessings, encapsulated placentas and made placenta smoothies, balms, oils, salts and postnatal meals for birthing women which are all available within my additional packages.
My services range from a full package to, prenatally or postnatally only. Whatever works best for you!
Please feel free to contact me for more information and to arrange a zoom or face to face meet.
My services cover roughly an hours radius from Penley, Wrexham.
