In todays culture many of us have moved away from family networks or
don't have a close female companion with recent experience of
childbirth and parenting. Sometimes women feel they can relax better
with a person who is not a member of the family, in these cases a doula is the perfect answer.
Is It For You?
Doulas are for anyone whether its your first or last baby, whether you have a partner or not.
I will be there to provide support throughout your pregnancy and continually throughout your labour whether it is three hours or three days! I also support women in the postnatal period, around the home, with other children or just as a friend to listen.
Many people who hire a doula are women who have had a previous bad experience with childbirth and are wishing to feel more empowered this time. As a doula I will support you with your choices whilst still respecting the roles of other health professionals.I do not give medical advice but I will explore the options with you.
Fathers can also feel very vulnerable and apprehensive at this highly emotional time and I am there to ease their worries whilst acknowledging the importance of the fathers role in childbirth.
My main aim is to allow women to birth the way they want to, in their chosen environment, with their chosen people the way they feel most comfortable and to continue this support postnatally.
