A woman’s experience of pregnancy and childbirth as a transformative rite of passage has largely been overlooked in the recent decades. I believe that pregnancy and birth hold the power for a magical experience of connection, intuition, personal growth and elation.

Home Birth Doula Services: Compassionate Support for Your Birthing Journey

Bringing your baby into the world in the comfort of your own home is a beautiful and intimate experience. A home birth can be a deeply empowering way to welcome your child. As your dedicated doula, I am here to ensure you feel held, nurtured, and heard throughout your experience.

What Do I do as Home Birth Doula?

A doula I am your constant companion during pregnancy, labour, and the postpartum period—an experienced and compassionate guide to support you through the emotional and spiritual journey of birth. Having a doula by your side can make a world of difference. Here’s how I can support you:

• Continuous Emotional Support: I am by your side throughout the entire pregnancy and birth, offering encouragement, reassurance, knowledge and a calming presence. My goal is to help you feel empowered and at peace with your choices so you can focus on welcoming your baby in your power.

• Personalised Birth Planning: Every birth is unique, and your home birth should be a reflection of your wishes and values. I help you create a birth plan that aligns with your vision, ensuring that you feel prepared and confident. Whether you envision a water birth, the support of breathing techniques, or simply a gentle, natural environment, I’m here to help.

• Support for Partners: I’m here for them too! A homebirth is an environment where your partner can truly step up to physically and emotionally support you and not feel like a spare part!

• Advocacy and Communication: In the comfort of your home, you deserve to feel safe and respected in your choices. Consider me the protector of your peace. I will help facilitate clear communication between you, your partner, and any midwives or healthcare providers involved. With me as your advocate, you can focus on your birth experience, knowing that your wishes are respected and understood.

• Nurturing Postpartum Care: After your baby is born, I’m here to help you settle into life as a new mother, offering support and signposting with feeding, newborn choices and any questions or concerns that arise. My goal is to ensure you feel held in the those precious early days.

Who am I and Why do I only support Homebirth?

To be blunt, birth interventions are at an all time high. Birth trauma is also at an all time high. The current care provision in the NHS does little to prioritise the mother-baby dyad. There is no doubt that environment has a huge influence on birth physiology and therefore outcome. Having attended hospital birth and having had a Homebirth myself, I simply do not believe that hospital is the safest place to give birth. With a background in Naturopathic Nutrition, the body’s innate wisdom never ceases to amaze me. I believe we inherently have what we need to birth our babies in peace and power. It is very rare that medical interventions are needed when women and their physiology are respected.

A little about me . . . .

I have held an inexplicable and complete fascination with pregnancy and birth since childhood. After seeing friends birth in the French medical system in my 20’s I was dismayed by how medicalised and often traumatic things were. This lead me to complete a birth doula training in 2016 in the UK while still living in France. In Canada in 2019 I trained with Dona and began working as a Doula and Volunteer Doula in a hospital setting. Since then I have completed a Doula UK Alternative Pathway training in January 2022. I have taken the Katherine Graves Hypnobirthing Training and a Biomechanics for Birthing training too. Since having my own baby in 2023, my passion and obsession with birth has only intensified and I feel ready to offer my support to clients again.

As a Naturopathic Nutritionist I can also guide you in holistic prenatal care and postpartum nourishment.

As a Theta Healer I can work with reprogramming unhelpful subconscious beliefs and fears held around birth with meditation techniques.

I am now offering Homebirth support in Herefordshire, Gloucestershire, Monmouthshire and Torfaen.

If you desire the unwavering support, inspiration, knowledge and encouragement you deserve during this life-changing experience, please arrange a free call to see if we are a good fit for each other. I accept clients at any point in their pregnancy journey and offer a range of packages to suit your individual needs. If you are unsure on your birth plans please arrange a call to discuss this with me.
