Birth and postnatal doula services
A doula is not a midwife or medical professional. I won't examine you, diagnose anything, or give medical advice. What I will do is be right beside you through one of the most significant experiences of your life. My role is to offer continuous, informed, and compassionate support - to you and your birth partner - through pregnancy, labour, birth, and the early postnatal period. I am independent and self-employed, working entirely for you, not for your care providers or birth setting.
I bring knowledge, passion, experience and presence. I can help you understand your options, prepare for what lies ahead, and feel supported in making decisions that are right for you. I am your advocate and passionate supporter - but the decisions are always yours.
