Hello! I’m Kate and I’ve been supporting women and birthing folk for over 3 decades. 

I’m deeply passionate about supporting you to find your own path and then to work with you to ensure that’s manifested in as close a way as possible. 

I know, from years of experience, that the work you do on yourself will impact how your birth, and I’ve become expert at helping you to pinpoint and gently move through any blocks. This might include childhood trauma, previous birth trauma or myriad of other issues. I offer support through  anything from  breath work to homeopathic remedies, acupressure, nature walks and much more. I work in a deeply intuitive way.

I’m very comfortable with working with your neurodiversity, your mental health issues and your physical disabilities. I’m experienced in holding stories and helping you to find your most empowered birthing narrative.

I’m comfortable with freebirth and have experienced supporting many.

I love working with partners, even those who are unsure about doulas and I’m highly experienced in working with single parents too.

I’m solid and very grounded, alongside being deeply connected to spirit.

Within my practice I have  been training Doulas since 2007 and I have developed a ‘TIDE toolkit training’ which is  a Trauma Informed Doula Education program. This was initially rolled out as a Trauma Informed training for healthcare professionals and was approved by the Royal College of Midwifery.

I have also created ‘Doulas Without Borders’, which is a UK-wide Voluntary Doula Service for those in extreme poverty and who are experiencing trauma. 

I live between Bristol and the magical Avalon (Glastonbury) in a house which is dedicated to Birth, called the ‘Avalon Birth House’ and we offer a space for you to come and be supported and cared for before, during and after your birth. 

I am also a Doula/Birthkeeper who travels. I have attended births on most sides of the country as well as abroad, several times.

I have 2 adult children and must say that I loved giving birth and that inspired me to support others to find those moments too. Birth is an incredible rite of passage and my life’s work is to help you reclaim this, in whatever form speaks to you, for yourself.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Bright Blessings,

Kate
