How can I assist you as a Doula?
Emotional support :
I provide continuous emotional support throughout your pregnancy, labor, and postpartum journey.
Whether you’re feeling excited, anxious, or overwhelmed, I’m here to offer reassurance, encouragement, and a compassionate presence every step of the way.
Continuous Care:
From the onset of labor until after childbirth, I offer uninterrupted support, ensuring that you feel secure and supported throughout the entire process.
My consistent presence helps create a comforting and reassuring environment, contributing to a positive and empowering birth experience.
Information and Education:
I provide evidence-based information and education on pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care, empowering you to make informed decisions about your care and well-being.
Partner Support:
I support not only you but also your partner or support person, offering guidance and encouragement as they navigate their role during labor.
I help partners feel involved and empowered, providing reassurance and assistance as needed throughout the birthing process.
Reduced Intervention Rates:
Research suggests that my presence as a Doula during labor is associated with lower rates of interventions, such as cesarean sections, epidurals, and the use of synthetic oxytocin.
A personalised support and a positive birthing environment can facilitate a more natural and empowering birth experience while also promoting positive maternal and neonatal outcomes.

How can I assist you as a Postpartum Doula?
Time Management: Find balance for your life
Managing time as a mother effectively is a challenge many women face. Between taking care of your children, daily household tasks, and the desire for personal time, it can be difficult to juggle everything.
By getting support, you can ensure you have extra time for yourself. As a postpartum doula I can assist with childcare, help with light household chores, and give you time for yourself.
Are you getting enough sleep since your baby’s birth?
Lack of sleep can be a huge burden, but you’re not alone.
The irregular sleep patterns of newborns often lead to sleep deprivation for parents.
Together, we can develop strategies to help you as a parent get the rest you need.
Do you feel overwhelmed?
I am here for you through these challenges.
I offer support for emotional and physical recovery after birth, mother-baby bonding, and soothing infants.
Healthy nutrition after childbirth?
A balanced diet after childbirth is crucial to support your recovery and maintain your energy levels. Additionally, a healthy diet plays a crucial role in breastfeeding and your baby’s development.
I am ready to help you plan and prepare healthy and nutritious meals that not only meet your own needs but also those of your baby.
Newborn care made easy
Caring for a newborn can be challenging, but with the right support, it gets easier.
As a postpartum doula I can help parents confidently care for their newborns and facilitate the transition into parenthood though the following services:
1. Support with the basics of newborn care from feeding, diaper changing, bathing, and soothing techniques.
2. Educate parents about newborn signals and behaviours and help them understand their baby’s needs.
3. Help parents create a loving and safe home environment for their newborn.
4. Provide emotional support and reassurance as parents navigate the challenges of newborn care.
5. Be available for questions and concerns.
