Doula, Birth sister & Birth partner,
I can be one or all of these things. I love supporting mothers and partners to experience as gentle and empowered birth as possible.
I have many years off experience watching people from different cultures and communities support their birthing mothers.
I have layers of skills that I can adapt and teach for your labour and birth: Massage, Rebozo, Biomechanics, Aromatherapy, Accupressure…
Your Birth Vision
Whatever your Birth plan , knowledge around birth, life experiences. We can talk about your hopes, fears and anything which can add to your personal unique Birth day. I can talk and show you massage , movement, breathing, rebozo, biomechanics,aromatherapy oils, ….. if you are wondering what on earth I am talking about don’t worry!! All the self-help is simple but can make a huge beneficial impact .
Dr Rachel Reed ( a midwife from Australia) recently wrote ‘ Medical Intervention is routinely applied to physiological labour creating risk …and the principles of supporting physiological birth are applied to medical birth creating risk.’ So you may be wondering how do we navigate all this information? I can support you to consider all your options and consider what might be right for you and your baby. I can provide podcasts, books, conversation, alternative holistic traditions that nurture you. We can consider different scenarios and think how you might adapt and choose what is right for you.
“knowledge about birth is empowering”
— you can make your decisions based on your own self-knowledge.
Feel free to contact me on 07484295235 and we can talk about your requirements.
It is impossible to know how long your labour will last but we it can be 1hr- 24 hours plus.
If you would like to discuss possible scenarios and costs , please get in touch.
I want you to have a positive supported birth experience and I am open to paying in installments over a few months .
