Our Doulas support birth in every setting
Just imagine your partner and you having all the support you need through your whole birthing experience. From the moment you decide you want it to when you are settled and enjoying having your new baby in your arms.
A Doula is a non-medical birth professional, who provides physical, emotional and informational support at home and/or in the hospital or birth centre. A doula helps you prepare before the birth, supports you during your birth and visits after the birth to help you have a more memorable and positive birthing experience.
Evidence Based
The Doula phenomenon is growing organically across the world, as more and more couples experience birth with doula support as a wonderful way to start new life as a family. There is now a strong body of research that backs up the word-of-mouth that Doulas improve outcomes. Research shows that giving birth with the support of a doula improves outcomes significantly.
What does a doula do?
A Doula will help you, over two or more sessions, to think through your options and preferences and help you prepare for your birth in the weeks beforehand. She will then go on call from 37 weeks on and come to you whenever you go into labour. She will stay with you for as long as you need her, throughout the birth and afterwards to support you until you are settled with your newborn. She will then also visit you postnatally at home to process the birth with you.

Thankyou notes
“After following the 'Confident Birth Course' I felt inspired to have a natural birth. My partner and I felt that having a doula by our side during labour would make it easier and enrich the process.
We are so happy that we made that choice! Sophie was very encouraging and supportive during the labour and always seemed to know exactly the right moment to say and do the right thing. Her support helped to make our birthing experience a great and positive memory and her amazing birth photography was a real gift"

“Thanks for being with us through this amazing process. We appreciated your unbiased and emotional support with the decisions we needed to make, and especially how you helped us navigate through a birth that we knew couldn't be 'natural.'
It was great to find a Doula who was there for us when that meant we would be having the full hospital experience. Thank you for not judging us and respecting our wishes for the birth"
