Welcome, thank you for taking the time to come & see what I offer....

I offer a calm, supportive, and reassuring presence, ensuring you feel truly seen, heard, and respected—no matter what choices you make for your birth. I mother the mother through presence, touch, and soul-led advocacy, grounded in intuitive wisdom and lived experience. 

My role is to provide balanced, evidence-based information so you can make the choices that feel right for you from a place of emotional safety, intuition & empowerment - however your birth journey unfolds. I will be there to advocate for those decisions in your birth space, gently holding space for you and reminding you of power.

Building a deep connection with the families I support is so important to me. I take the time to truly get to know you, creating a safe and trusting relationship where you feel empowered and completely comfortable - there is no such thing as a silly question! And when the time comes to welcome your baby Earth-side, I will be by your side, reminding you of your incredible strength every step of the way.

How we feel when we give birth really matters- You matter!

I am a mother to a son and twin girls, and they are the inspiration behind my journey to becoming a Doula. Each of my pregnancies and births shaped and guided me along this beautiful path. Having experienced firsthand the profound impact of feeling safe and nurtured by my own Doula, I know that these elements are essential for a positive birth and postnatal experience. 

It is an honor to be invited into the journey of pregnancy , birth & the 4th trimester - and it is essential that whoever you choose feels just right, so I always offer a free, no-obligation get together to see if we are a good match. 

Kind Words...

'Layla was everything we wanted in a Doula. The main highlight was her being completely judgment free of what my birth preferences were. She is knowledgeable about birth, able to offer suggestions on pain relief & coping with contractions. She was able to read the atmosphere of my birth the second she arrived, she has a great instinct for what a woman in labour does or does not need.’ V.W

'I love that Layla approaches everything in such a holistic way; massage, food, mental well-being, but also a deep knowledge of the more clinical aspects of birth & postpartum recovery. My birth was pretty medical, in the sense that it was a planned c-section, but Layla helped me see and feel the magic in my birth and postpartum.' O.F

'Layla was invaluable over the weeks following my caesarean birth, whilst breastfeeding twins. Layla provided our family with delicious, nutritious food which proved to be a lifeline whilst my partner took care of me & our 3yr old during the early stages of my recovery. As a mother to twins herself, she was able to empathise with our situation & provide wisdom & comfort to me when I felt overwhelmed. Every meal & visit from, Layla, felt like a hug - her manner gentle, calm, kind & strong. I found her company just as nourishing for my soul as her food was for my body.' L.B
