My work weaves together:
Evidence-based information and clear signposting to support your decision making so that you can handle your appointments with confidence, enabling you to uphold your birth wishes and securing the positive birth experience you deserve. Allowing you to fully focus on enjoying your pregnancy knowing all the complicated conversations are handled.
Emotional steadiness for all the ups and downs your experience may bring, I’ll be by your side when you need it most. It may look like a msg to me in the night when you’re feeling worried or a visit in your home to run through all your questions, laying out all the potential scenarios providing you with complete clarity.
Gentle movement and breath work, to support you throughout, especially during birth when things feel intense or when you’ve had your baby and you are feeling overwhelmed and just need a moment to breathe. I’ll be available to listen deeply so you feel heard and can process your thoughts and feelings when things feel difficult. I’ll be there with you throughout, so you feel truly held knowing who you can trust.
This isn’t generic hand-holding support.
My support is grounded, calm and personal, centered entirely around YOU.
I can’t promise you how your birth will unfold.
But I can promise you this:
You will not navigate it alone.
So what does my support look like in real life?
I like to think of my doula support as holistic 1:1 care.
But what that really means for you is this:
During Pregnancy
Imagine we sit together in your home, we talk about what matters to you the most, exploring all the options and scenarios for your birth.
You will have me on WhatsApp — not just for logistics — but for the “Is this normal?” texts and the “Can we talk this through?” moments. I will be there for you when you need me the most.
You stop second-guessing yourself, you start trusting your instincts, you stop feeling like pregnancy & birth is something being done to you, you start feeling like an active participant in it.
You move from:
“I hope this goes okay…”
To:
“I feel ready for whatever path this takes.”
Even if things change, even if you need to make unexpected decisions, even if it doesn’t look how you imagined.
You'll feel confident, safe and empowered because you understand what is happening to you and all around you.
During Birth
I adapt completely to you, maybe you need massage and counterpressure, calm eye contact or someone to quietly anchor the room. Maybe you want help communicating your wishes, to allow you to remain in the birthing zone. We can practice gentle movement and breathwork, I’ll guide you into birthing positions that feel instinctively good for you and your baby to enable your labour to feel comfortable and for you to feel powerful. Imagine easing the intensity with movement and your breath reducing any fear and anxiety that arises when things feel overwhelming.
Or maybe we're at your home and you simply need someone making the tea, filling the pool and protecting your space. Your partner isn't standing in the corner wondering if they're doing it right. They're not frozen, watching you and trying to remember what the book said. They know what you need before you ask for it — when to step in and when to hold back, when to speak for you and when to just hold your hand. They're not a spare part. They're your person, fully present, because someone took the time to prepare them too.
After Birth
You’re not forgotten once baby arrives we reflect, process, we make sense of your experience. You’ll feel truly held, knowing you have someone to share all your thoughts and feelings with so that you can enjoy those early days.
I’ll be there for the practical too, I can hold the baby while you shower or fold a pile of washing, make tea and something nourishing to eat.
Whatever you need in the moment, so that you feel supported not alone.
Birth Packages -
The Birth Essentials Package
This package is suitable from the third trimester.
Maybe you’ve done this before and you are looking to heal from your previous experience or you find yourself constantly looking back thinking ‘Why did no one tell me...’ or ‘I wish I had prepared more...’ .
It’s also for you if you don’t need full antenatal education from scratch but you do want continuity of care and someone fully in your corner so you feel fully supported so that you can own and enjoy your experience this time around.
You’ll receive:
2 deep antenatal sessions in your home, so that when labour starts, you're not scrambling to remember what you read; you're already clear on what you want and how to ask for it
WhatsApp support from 27 weeks so that those 2am worries don't spiral into 3am Google rabbit holes.
24/7 on-call support from 38–42 weeks so that when things start moving, the first call you make is to someone who already knows your whole story
Continuous birth support so that you are never, at any point, the only person in that room advocating for you
A postnatal visit to reflect and land gently because what just happened to you deserves more than a discharge leaflet
2 weeks postnatal WhatsApp support so that the first fortnight doesn't feel like you've been handed a baby and wished good luck.

12hrs of postnatal visits and WhatsApp support throughout the whole fourth trimester so that you're supported through the whole messy, beautiful, bewildering first chapter of motherhood, not just the birth itself.

It’s about how you enter motherhood with confidence.

Postnatal Doula Support
The birth of your baby is just the beginning and the weeks that follow can feel overwhelming, emotional, and all-consuming.
My postnatal doula support is here to care for you, so that you can recover, bond with your baby, and find your feet in motherhood without feeling like you have to do it all alone.
This is what that looks like in real life:
• I can hold your baby while they sleep on me, so that you can shower, nap, eat a hot meal, or just have a moment to yourself
• I can sit with you during feeds, offering gentle guidance and reassurance, so that you can feel more confident whether you're breastfeeding, bottle feeding, or combination feeding
• I can talk things through with you — your birth, your feelings, your worries — so that you can process your experience and feel heard without judgement
• I can help you understand your baby’s cues and rhythms, so that you can feel more in tune with them and less like you’re guessing
• I can take care of small practical jobs like folding laundry, tidying up, or making you a drink, so that your mental load feels lighter and your space feels calmer
• I can support your physical and emotional recovery, so that you can slow down, rest, and heal instead of pushing through exhaustion
• I can be a steady, reassuring presence in your home, so that you can feel calmer, more held, and less alone in those early days
This isn’t about doing more — it’s about having someone there to support you while you do less.
Because when you are cared for, everything feels that little bit easier.
Investment
£35 per hour and a minimum 3 hrs per visit.
