P A C K A G E S & P R I C I N G

[I'm going to be honest before I get into it, THIS: creating packages, outlining my offerings, putting prices on it, it was hard!

It is hard to put a prices on something I consider an essential service, especially as I love work...

But I have to be real, the cost of my training and extra education in order to provide the best service I possibly can, my extensive doula supplies so that you can borrow rather than buy, and my time... On-call - taking on no other clients over this period, leaving my young family at the drop of a hat, for an unknown period of time? I genuinely cannot put a price on all of this, and so I have settled for prices similar to those in this region of the country/world.

Lastly, people think nothing about spending thousands of £s for their wedding day, but a day which alters how we step into parenthood both physically and emotionally, we often don't think about, though it has been proven that doula care creates more positive birth experiences with outcomes requiring less interventions 🫂]

Back to it!

I have put my packages and prices together in an effort to be completely transparent - I have had a few requests recently (as my website is not yet complete), and I have been stuck on what to say/price.

So here it is!

If you have any questions about my offerings or pricing, please do not hesitate to contact me.

As with all of my services, I offer many ways to make my care affordable for all 🫂♥️

Looking forward to making new connections and supporting your individual journeys✨

F R E E B I R T H ✨
Also known as autonomous birth or family birth, the term was coined by midwife Jeanine Parvati Baker. It refers to birthing outside the medical system, without the presence of healthcare professionals.

Birth is not just a physical event, it is a sacred rite of passage for both mother AND baby.
It leaves an imprint; shaping the baby's world as it's very first experience of life, and as a mother - their first experience of motherhood. How we birth and how we are left feeling afterwards can impact our perception of self and our ability as a new mother.

⏳
Though freebirth is often misunderstood or labeled as reckless, it's rooted in ancient wisdom. For most of human history, birth has occurred without any medical practices: intuitively, instinctively, and without intervention.

Hospital birth became the norm less than 100 years ago - not for safety, but as a symbol of status. When men entered birth spaces with tools like forceps, maternal mortality initially rose due to poor hygiene and lack of understanding.

What we lost in that shift:
🌀 Trust in the body
🌀 Sacred space
🌀 Primal rhythms

And what we gained?
Timed contractions, routine inductions, and constant surveillance, creating more risk than that which they aim to prevent.

Birth without medical professionals is not new, it's inherently natural.
And for some, it’s the safest, most empowered choice.

As the Freebirth Society says:

“Freebirth may even be the best way to protect the health & safety of both mother & child during the most transformative experience of our lives.”
