Jessy Ward

Mentored Birth Doula & Mentored Postnatal Doula

Hello, I'm Jessy, a antenatal, birth and postnatal doula in Nottingham! I'm a dedicated Nottingham doula committed to providing support to all families as they navigate through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood with holistic, compassionate care. I also specialise in Massage, Antenatal / Postnatal yoga & biomechanics.

Hello, I’m so glad you’re here.

 I’m a doula based in Nottingham, supporting families through pregnancy, birth and the early weeks of parenthood with holistic, compassionate care. My work centres around helping parents feel informed, supported and confident as they move through this life-changing transition. 

At the heart of everything I do is a simple belief...

Every parent deserves to feel held, heard, respected and supported.

I’m 35 and live in Nottingham with my wonderful husband and our three children – our phenomenal daughter (14) and our two energetic beautiful boys (7 and 4).

Supporting people through meaningful moments in life has always felt like a calling. For over 12 years I have worked in caring roles, including seven years with a hospice community team, supporting the delivery of holistic end-of-life care. That experience taught me the profound importance of person-centred support, compassion, listening deeply, and holding space for people during the most significant moments of their lives.

It was an incredible privilege and one that shaped how I support families today.

For the last four years I have been supporting families through pregnancy, birth and early parenthood. During my own pregnancies I realised that while clinical care is important, many parents also need something more; emotional support, reassurance, space to ask questions, guidance to explore their choices and someone who truly listens.

That realisation led me to retrain and launch my perinatal wellbeing and yoga business, where I support parents through antenatal birth preparation workshops, Pregnancy yoga, Postnatal and baby yoga, baby massage and as a specialist in pregnancy massage and postnatal massage treatments. Now, trained as a doula with the wonderful team at Nurturing Birth, I've deepened the support I offer families during pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period.


Holistic, Intuitive & Inclusive Care
Alongside my doula work, I am also trained in women’s massage therapy, offering pregnancy massage and postnatal massage treatments designed to support rest, recovery, relief and relaxation.

I also have training in neurodivergent birth support, something that feels especially meaningful to me as someone learning to live alongside my own (not yet diagnosed) ADHD brain.  This also allows me to support parents who may experience pregnancy, birth or early parenthood differently, helping create an environment that feels safe, flexible and understanding.
