Birth Doula, Postnatal Doula, Aromatherapy, Hypnobirthing, Antenatal classes
I will be there to help you with whatever it is you need. There doesn't need to be any firm structure to how we work together. Everybody and every BODY is different and when we are learning how we work, flexibility is key! I offer you fully bespoke, one-on-one classes tailored towards you and the birth you want to have - whatever that may look like. I will be available on the phone and via text and email to answer all your niggling questions, do your research for you, advocate for you if things start to go off-piste and generally support you. You'd be amazed (or if you've been pregnant before, you'll be well aware!) of how many questions come up when you're pregnant. I do have set packages, ante-natal sessions, postpartum support and wrap-around doula care, but these can all be picked apart so you get exactly what you need from me while you're brewing your baby. You might want to do a bit of birth prep together. To learn how your body works in labour and can you can make it as calm and empowering as possible. Or you might need an advocate to help you feel confident with a planned home birth that a consultant may advise you against. You might just want help post-natally. If you're unsure what you want or what you need, give me a call and we can talk it through and put together a plan that works for you.
