Birth Doula

I support you throughout your pregnancy, and from 38 weeks I will go on call for you to attend your birth. You have access to my support as soon as you book with me and pay the first installment, you do not have to wait until you are in the second trimester to start receiving my support. This support could look like a phonecall before or after an appointment or scan should you wish to have these, I can also attend appointments with you if you feel this would be beneficial for you*. I can provide evidence based information to help you with your decisions if required. I aim to guide you back to your intuition so you can make your decisions from a place of peace rather than a place of fear.

Throughout pregnancy we will arrange 3 in person sessions where we go through your birth plan, postpartum preparation including feeding support, and anything you feel you need more knowledge or support with. These sessions are usually for 1.5 - 2 hours each.

You can borrow my books, and enjoy being gifted with some postpartum healing herbs, spritz and other things.

You can text or call me and I will respond within my working hours set out in my contract, unless I am on call for you where I aim to respond to you immediately but at most within 30 minutes.

As part of my birth doula package, you can use the hire of my birth pool at no extra charge if you are choosing to give birth at home. We will arrange a day before I go on call where I will drop this off to you and show you and your birth partner how to set it up. This would normally be done on the 3rd in person session prior to birth, between 35-37 weeks of pregnancy.

Within a few weeks after the birth we will have a postnatal session, where we can debrief the birth, discuss feeding and address any concerns you may have. After the birth you will have support from me in the form of texts and short phone calls, up until 8 weeks post natal.

*Please note attending appointments with you will incur additional charges of £25 per hour. See contract for further details.

Investment £1,200. Payment plans are available.

Postnatal doula

I can be there to support you as you transition to life after birth. This support could include light housework, shopping, folding laundry and ironing. I can take dogs for a walk, play with older siblings, I can top up your water bottle, make you hot drinks, all with the aim of keeping you comfortable and feeling supported. 

I am more than happy to look after the baby so you can rest or take a bath, if this is what you wish for, but I completely understand a lot of mums don’t necessarily need the baby held, but they themselves need to be held. 

I can offer basic breastfeeding advice and signpost you if necessary.

Investment £25 per hour, minimum of 3 hours per day.
