Birth Doula

Content for the sessions is tailored to your individual needs. We typically cover: 

• your birth preferences

• the physiology of labour

• establishing how I can enhance the role of your birth partner

• "due dates"

• induction and cesarean birth

• natural & medical pain relief

• comfort measures like birth positions & massage techniques

• birth mindset and affirmations

• what to pack and prepare

• birthing your placenta and the golden hour

• the fourth trimester 

• anything else that comes up

These sessions are 2 hours long. I request that the birthing parent and birth partner(s) attend together. 

I will be on-call 24/7 for you from 10 days before your due date until your baby arrives. 

​

I will come to your birth when you or your partner ask me to and stay until 2-4 hours afterwards. I will help with getting you comfortable and offer support with initial feeding. 

One postnatal in person visit of approx 3 hours to support you however you need- talking about the birth, supporting you with feeding, your health and comfort, signposting to relevant resources.

I offer support via text message or email during my working hours (8am to 8pm) from booking up to six weeks after the birth. 

If you feel you could benefit from further in person/video call sessions, or if you would like me to attend medical appointments with you, these are charged at my hourly rate.
