About Me
Hello, Im Kelly, I live in a small village on the Essex/Suffolk border with my husband, two wonderful teenagers and Slim Shady our black and white cat.
I have been very fortunate to be a stay at home mum. As my children started school I trained to support teaching and learning in schools and worked as a learning support assistant supporting children with additional needs and their families for several years in a local primary school.
I have been a volunteer with Homestart for over three years now supporting families who are in need of extra support for a wide variety of reasons, the work I carried out with new families in those early weeks confirmed my passion for supporting women through pregnancy, birth and in the postnatal period; training as a doula seemed the logical next step.
To support you and your partner at this exciting and special time is my absolute privilege.
I will provide both emotional and practical support alongside up to date evidence based information to enable you to make informed choices about your maternity care that suit you and your family. Everyone’s pregnancy, birth and family situations are unique and I will tailor my support to meet your individual needs, wishes and desires to help you achieve a positive birth experience – whatever that looks like for you.
Following the birth of your baby I can provide practical and emotional support to ease your transition into parenthood. I can assist with breast/bottle feeding, offer guidance and encouragement on newborn care, run errands, look after baby whilst you rest/ sleep or shower or simply make you a cup of tea and provide a listening ear.
My aim is to make sure new and expectant parent(s) feel safe, knowledgeable and looked after as they embark on all the ups and downs that being a new parent brings.
Please do take a look at my website for further information and a guide to the services I offer or contact me directly.
I would be happy to have a chat with you over the phone, via video call or arrange to meet in person- whatever suits you best.
I look forward to supporting you at this special time.
Kelly x
