Birth Doula Support Packages
I offer in-person support throughout Leicestershire, as well as parts of Derbyshire & Nottinghamshire.
My aim is to ensure you feel safe, encouraged, and confident to make informed decisions about your pregnancy, labour and birth. I will provide you with / signpost you to evidence-based resources and demonstrate practical skills to aid in your birth experience. I will hold space when you need a listening ear, and advocate on your behalf should you need or want me to.
I am certified and trained with The Riot Birth Network. I have a clean Enhanced DBS Check and all the necessary insurances as standard.

Social Events – coming soon
Keep your eyes on the lookout and ears to the ground as I am in the process of setting up a monthly social meet for expectant parents. We’ll meet for coffee and cake for an hour or two and you can ask me any ‘doula’ questions you may have – or just come for the general natter and the company of others.
