Becoming a parent can be incredibly overwhelming and overwhelmingly incredible all at the same time! As your postnatal doula, it would give me great joy to make those early weeks the best they can be for you and your baby.
What does that look like? Anything from preparing yummy snacks or meals for you or helping fold laundry, to being someone to lean on when you’re lacking in confidence or need to off-load, to looking after your baby or older sibling while you have some time to rest. I am also a qualified breastfeeding counsellor and holistic sleep coach, skills which enhance my postnatal work greatly. Babies and children teach us so much and I always follow your baby's lead, encouraging responsiveness and respecting their age-appropriate behaviours and needs.
I offer:
- in home postnatal support sessions (usually 2-3 hour slots)
- 1:1 breastfeeding consultations (60-90 minutes)
- 1:1 sleep consultations (60-90 minutes)
- 1:1 or group antenatal preparing to breastfeed sessions (2.5 hours approx)
I also speak fluent Spanish and have a high level of French and German. When I’m not working, I relish being with my husband and two children, indoors and out, exploring and discovering new places, camping, youth hostelling and having a merry old time.
