Pregnancy Doula Support
As your doula my priority is YOU and what you want and need to enable you to feel empowered during your pregnancy and birth. I offer nurturing support to you and your partner, if you have one, during the transformative time of your pregnancy and as you embark on your newest adventure, life as a parent.
I am passionate about the support I give and the positive impact this can have on yours and your birth partners birth and postnatal experience. I can provide evidence based information, a listening ear for any worries, validation of experiences and help you understand what feels right for you. I can be your personal birth cheerleader and on your team to support you to have the best beginning with your baby.
What Pregnancy Doula Support Can Look Like:
Pregnancy Doula Support includes eight hours of nurturing support tailored to your individual needs. The eight hours can be split into 4x2 hour sessions, and are available in person or virtually via Google Meet, during these session I can offer:
​
-
​​Debriefing your previous birth experience, I can listen, validate and help you understand your previous birth experience, helping you prepare for this birth experience with understanding and confidence.
-
Offer evidence based information and sign posting to help you work out what feels right for you and your baby. This can include information about your birth choices including where you would like to birth your baby and your birth rights. I have helped parents prepare for birth at home, in hospital and caesarean birth, so whatever feels best for you, I can be there to support you.

Information about pain relief, both medical and non-medical, and comfort measures and ways to help your birth experience be the positive experience you deserve.
