Marta Antunes

Birth Doula & Postnatal Doula

Hi, I’m Marta, a compassionate and experienced Doula dedicated to supporting you through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. My goal is to provide a reassuring presence, evidence-based guidance, and emotional and practical support—tailored to your unique journey. Whether you need an advocate, a listening ear, or a helping hand, I’m here for you. Let’s create a positive and empowering experience together!

Hello, and welcome! 

I’m Marta, a dedicated and compassionate Doula originally from Portugal, now calling the UK home since 2013. Supporting and empowering families on their journey to parenthood is my passion, and I’m here to walk alongside you—offering guidance, reassurance, and a safe space where you feel heard and supported. 

 

With over a decade of experience in the caring industry, from healthcare practitioner to branch manager, I bring both professional knowledge and a deep understanding of the healthcare system to help you navigate your options with confidence. I am a natural advocate and believe every family deserves support that is inclusive, respectful, and tailored to their unique needs—regardless of background, beliefs, or identity. 

 

I am fascinated by the incredible journey of conception, pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. 

I believe birth is a deeply personal journey, and my goal is to provide unwavering support tailored to your needs, ensuring you feel confident, informed, and empowered every step of the way. I have a special interest in breastfeeding, infant sleep, and food introduction, and I am passionate about helping you feel informed, empowered, and in control of your experience. My role as your Doula is to listen—without judgment—so that you feel safe expressing your hopes, fears, and desires. Together, we can create a positive, supported birth and postpartum experience that feels right for you. 

 

Whether you’re preparing for birth, navigating early parenthood, or simply needing an extra pair of hands, I am here to offer as much or as little support as you need. From practical help—like holding your baby while you rest, attending appointments with you, or preparing a meal—to emotional support and guidance, I am here for you. 

 

Let's chat about how I can support you—whether over a coffee, a call, or a message, I’d love to hear your story!
