Congratulations Lovely Parents and Welcome to my Doula page
Rosie Goode
Birth Doula, Hypnobirthing Specialist, Pregnancy and Post Natal Therapist — Across London
Hi I’m Rosie, a birth doula, hypnobirthing specialist and post natal therapist, working across London, but especially around South West London, supporting families to feel calm, confident and emotionally supported through pregnancy, birth and early parenthood.
I believe birth isn’t about doing it a certain way — it’s about how supported you feel while birth unfolds.
🤍 How I Support You
My role is to walk alongside you, helping you feel safe, informed, respected and heard, whatever kind of birth you’re planning or experiencing.
I support births at home, in birth centres and hospitals, and I work comfortably alongside midwives, consultants and partners. Whether you’re planning a physiological birth, a VBAC, a caesarean, or are simply unsure what lies ahead, I offer steady, non-judgemental support that adapts to you, in a system that may have other plans.
🌿 What Working With Me Feels Like
Clients often tell me they feel calmer simply knowing I’m there.
I bring a reassuring, unhurried presence, helping you stay connected to your body and your instincts, while also navigating the realities of the maternity system. I support partners too, so you feel like a team rather than carrying everything alone.
This is not about control or rigid plans — it’s about feeling safe enough to respond to whatever happens with confidence.
🌟 Birth Preparation & Hypnobirthing & Hypnotherapy
Alongside doula support, I offer hypnobirthing and emotional preparation for birth, helping to reduce fear, anxiety and overwhelm.
This work supports:
- confidence in decision-making
- trust in your body
- calmer responses to uncertainty or change
- a more grounded birth experience, whatever the outcome
Many families come to me after a previous difficult birth, wanting to approach this experience feeling stronger and more supported.
Clinical Hypnotherapist - I can help alleviate the symptoms of stress, phobias, anxiety, depression, tokophobia and PTSD.
Birth Trauma - If you have suffered a traumatic birth, I can help you release that trauma (trained to use the highly effective trauma rewind technique)
👶 Postnatal Therapeutic Support & BabyCalm
The early weeks after birth matter.
As a postnatal therapist, and BabyCalm teacher, I offer gentle, practical and emotional support as you adjust to life with your baby — from evidence based baby development to emotional debriefing and rest. My aim is to help you feel held and more confident as you navigate the social media world of misinformation, and find your own rhythm as a family.
🧡 What Matters to Me
I care deeply about:
- women feeling listened to and respected
- informed choice without pressure
- emotional wellbeing alongside physical care
- creating calm, safe spaces in intense moments
I don’t believe the NHS system should be undermining your experience with practices and protocols that are NOT evidence based.
I do believe in helping you feel steady, supported and able to trust yourself and your knowledge.
🌍 Areas Covered
I support families across London, but especially South West London. I have excellent relationships with local midwifery leaders and I’m familiar with local maternity units and care pathways.
🤍 Are We The Right Fit?
I tend to work best with women who:
- are open to practical preparation and work on mindset
- value emotional support as much as practical support
- want to feel informed with evidence so not overwhelmed by realities of maternity services
- Value autonomy and want support with advocacy
If you want someone to walk alongside you, help you feel safe, and support your choices and decisions (and fight for your decisions, if necessary!) — we may be a very good fit.

Some parents' words:
Anna: I chose Rosie because of her experience, as well as her warmth, easygoing personality and expertise in hypnobirthing. She was amazing throughout. During the antenatal period, I had a lot of anxiety around what was to come during labour – Rosie helped me enormously. In birth, Rosie was an oasis of calm. She advocated for me and my wishes based on my birth plan and what we had discussed. She listened to me and spoke up for me while I was focused on breathing and giving birth. She was incredibly supportive and made me feel in control.
Sophie said: “Thank you so much for all your support today Rosie (and all the other days) – it was perfect. I told P yesterday I feel euphoric and am still very much on a high! ” Sophie had an amazing VBAC in a birthing pool – vaginal birth after a traumatic c-Section. We negotiated a home birth or birth centre, and that I was able to be with her in birth as well as her husband during covid times]
Laura: You felt like my mum supporting me throughout today. We are so grateful to have you🙂 Katie: I had an incredibly positive birth experience – very positive memories – and our doula Rosie was a big part of that. Rosie was wonderful in every way. I can’t think of anything she could have done better. Her personality is pure warmth and positivity. She is honest about labour and birth and extremely knowledgeable.
