Your Body, Your Baby, YOUR BIRTH STORY
Welcome, powerful woman.
You already know that birth is so much more than what you’ve been taught and you’re not willing to settle for a rushed, standardised, tick-box experience. You want care that truly sees you, honours your choices, and supports you as the intuitive, capable woman you are.
I’m Nicole, one of the most highly rated and most frequently booked birth doulas in Berkshire, and if you’ve found your way here, it’s because you’re ready for something more. You’re looking for continuity, time, compassion, and a guide who will walk beside you, not direct you.
My mission is simple: to help you reclaim your strength, trust your body, and feel deeply supported through pregnancy, birth, and beyond.
How I Support You
Birth doesn’t need managing. It needs safety, privacy, calm, and the right environment for your instincts to rise to the surface. Your body and baby already know what to do my role is to protect the space so that can unfold naturally.
During pregnancy, I help you unlearn unhelpful conditioning and reconnect with what you already know. During birth, I am your steady, grounding presence. removing fear, protecting your environment, and helping you feel safe and unobserved so your hormones can do their incredible work.
I offer practical, gentle tools such as:
- Biomechanics
- Rebozo
- Acupressure
- Aromatherapy
- Hypnobirthing
Not to make birth happen, but to support what is already unfolding.
With experience supporting over 100 families through pregnancy, birth and postpartum, my clients describe me as intuitive, calm, knowledgeable, and fiercely protective of their choices. I blend evidence-based knowledge with deep trust in physiological birth.
A Little About My Journey
I discovered my passion for birth through my own transformative first birth. Later, supporting a close friend through IVF and a high-risk pregnancy showed me how deeply women need not just information, but continuous advocacy, clarity, and emotional grounding. That experience changed the course of my work forever.
Since then, I’ve supported births in all their forms homebirth, hospital birth, high-risk situations, first-time parents, VBAC journeys, and more. I’m also trained in LGBTQIA+ inclusive birth support and a member of the Association of Complementary Medicine.
