When you get that special call! This will be my first experience supporting a young person as a birth doula ✨

I love it when I visit my clients and they have written down all the questions and worries that have been on their mind. Doulas inform, educate and support you in such a special time in your life 🌿 Lighten the load 🐚 There is no such thing as a silly question! (We don’t bite hehe) 🦁

The Doula’s Oath and the teachings of guide me in this incredible job 👩🏼‍🌾

This week I’ve been thinking about gals... and how working with women has changed my little world. Every week I am constantly overcome with joy at the strength and power emitting from the women in my life... the mothers I work with, the volunteers, the medical teams, my friends and family. Waking up to a constant source of inspiration is a true blessing. Get to know, support and inspire the women in your life, and you’ll find yourself growing as a person in beautiful ways.

Antenatal education outside ☀️ Female Anatomy 🤸🏼‍♀️

My passion for improving women’s birth and postnatal experience is at the core centre of my philosophy. Every woman is different, every Birth is different, every baby and every family is different... but what should be constant and factual is the support and respect she should receive throughout the birth and postnatal period. I feel that this starts with the highest quality antenatal education and ends with an empowered woman and her baby.

Turned up this morning at my local mamma and baby hub (aka the best banana bread within half a mile of the house) and talked all things bo***es and postnatal 😎💕❤️ getting to know my new local community is so rewarding, and to be able share the knowledge and support other gals is really what it’s all about!

With London under a blanket of snow I have the luxury of spending the afternoon finishing “Why Human Rights In Childbirth Matter” by Rebecca Schiller, chief executive of Birthrights and a fellow doula 🙏🏻 @ Tufnell Park

Postnatal depression affects 1 in every 10 women in the UK within a year of giving birth. It can also affect fathers and partners. With the right support most women make a full recovery. It is important to raise awareness and educate ourselves on the warning signs and to listen and care for women in the postnatal period.

It is important that you are supported and respected for feeding your baby the way that you choose. You should have access to up to date, factual information on the pros and cons of all the options. No matter what, you should be listened to throughout your feeding journey.

Do you ever think about your baby’s first encounter with the outside world? Is it a peaceful environment? In “Birth Without Violence”, Dr Frédérick Leboyer questions whether we can respect and improve the baby’s experience during birth and the postnatal period.
