What is a Doula?

A doula is someone you can trust to support you completely, without judgement during the most sacred moments of your life. 

As a birth and postpartum doula, I’m both experienced and educated in pregnancy support, birth support & postpartum care. 

Providing you and your family with; 

Evidence based resources, so that you are better prepared to make the right decisions for you & your baby. 

Emotional support; it is the most powerful tool for both the labouring person & their support team. Creating a safe space for you to remain in your primal birth zone. Guiding with positive language, affirmations, and a sense of knowing that as your doula, I’m in your corner supporting your every move. 

Physical support by offering position changes, optimal maternal positioning techniques to assist in pregnancy & labour progression, breathwork techniques, comforting measures and being a guide for partners, so that they can confidently be the main support person throughout the labour/birth. 

From the very beginning, I’ll be there to hold you, guide you, advocate for you & remind you just how powerful you are. 

I support every type of birth; vaginal, caesarean, VBAC births, home births, medicated, unmedicated - I believe everyone deserves to be completely supported with love.

My goal as a doula is to ‘hold space’ for you & your partner, supporting you both as you need, honouring your wishes and ultimately allowing you to let go and birth how you desire.

Once your beautiful babe is earthside, my focus continues to nurture & nourish your postpartum self. Providing support to ensure you & your family are prepared, cared for & supported in those early weeks of parenthood. 

To be part of your team would be an honour.
