DOULA - BIRTH
I believe all women deserve to feel supported and cared for during their pregnancy and birth experience. Evidence supports the benefits this kind of consistent loving care can bring to women and babies in birth.
I support women in their birth choices by offering unbiased evidence and information around birth choices, knowledge and guidance around birth biomechanics, and a kind, loving and supportive presence to hold you on your birth journey.
Let me support you to have a positive and empowered birth experience.
"All that is needed for the majority of labours to go well is a healthy, pregnant woman who has loving support in labour, self-confidence and attendants with infinite patience"
- Sheila Kitzinger

BIRTH PACKAGE EXTRA
This Birth Package is very similar to the one above, but with a few extras. I'll still work with you during your pregnancy to plan for your birth, I'll still show up to support you (and your family) during your birth experience, and I'll come and visit you postnatally to see how you're all doing. I'll do all this, with a bit of extra time added in during your pregnancy for us to go deeper into any birth prep and getting to know each other. I've also added a beautiful postnatal ceremony that is lovely for closing our time together and your birth journey.

One-to-one video call (or in person if local) where I listen and support you to work through your birth topic.
