If you're planning a home birth in Northumberland, Newcastle or anywhere across the North East and you're looking for support from someone who has sat beside hundreds of couples as they brought their babies earthside in their own homes, you're in the right place.

Most women who find me have already done the reading; they know what they want and they know why. 

But somewhere between their NHS appointments, the unsolicited opinions from people who mean well but really don't get it, and the noise of the internet, they've started to question their trust in themselves. 

What I offer isn't just information or a hand to hold on the day. 

It's the kind of 'wise woman' support that means you can walk into your next midwife appointment without your heart rate spiking whenever you mention home birth, say no to things that don't feel right without spiralling for the rest of the day, and actually start to enjoy your pregnancy instead of just hoop jumping through it.

Through birth doula packages, private hypnobirthing for home birth classes and the Born at Home™ course (the UK's only dedicated online home birth preparation programme), I help women across Northumberland, the wider North East and beyond walk into their births feeling genuinely ready; not just prepared on paper, but actually ready mind, body & soul for their home birth. 

600 births has taught me that the women who have the experiences they dreamed of aren't the ones who fought hardest or researched most; they're the ones who walked into labour knowing their body, knowing their partner had their back, and knowing that whoever was in that room had been chosen to be there with them, not just a stranger assigned by the NHS.  

And if you're not based in the North East, the Born at Home™ course was built for you; the UK's only dedicated online home birth preparation programme, so that wherever you are in the UK, you can access the same depth of knowledge and preparation.
