​Welcome Mumma,
to you and your baby's space

...to embrace your postpartum period within your own sanctuary, where you can heal and adjust.

​The space between all the different stages of life are precious. Becoming a Mother can be one of the most unique and exciting experiences. It can also be one of the biggest emotional and physical challenges a woman can face.

 A mother and new parent should have space to nurture and be nurtured, time to bond and breathe and a sanctuary to rest and reflect. 

​I feel passionately about helping Mumma create a space where she can give herself permission to recover, heal and hibernate. Where Mummy and Baby can be safe and slowly adjust to a new family life.

What is a Post Natal Doula?
​
The definition of a doula;  'also known as a birth companion and post-birth supporter, is a nonmedical person who assists a woman before, during, and/or after childbirth, as well as her spouse and/or family, by providing physical assistance and emotional support' - Wikipiedia 

Being a post natal doula means the world to me. I am passionate about not only supporting woman at this crucial stage of their lives, but also encouraging them to take vital time to heal and recover, after illness and child birth. Having had experience of both pregnancy, birth and three breast cancer diagnosis, I have learnt a great deal about the importance of self care, rest, recovery, nutrition and the benefits of holistic support. 

I have a mentored profile on Doula UK and I am currently signing up for courses focusing on bone closing massage. I have recently completed courses on baby wearing and post natal mental health, among others. I am actively looking for clients who may need that extra support during the post partum period in all areas and offering my services as Mummy's biggest cheer leader, helping to navigate this transition between life without baby, to life with a baby.

​I am writing a regular blog about this journey, about my thoughts, feelings, experiences and learnings. Doula's are a growing domestic army in the Western world, but in countries such as India, China and the middle east, having a doula or multiple doula's through labour and post labour, is part of their culture. By training as a post natal doula, after experiencing child brith and post cancer recovery myself, I want to help make it part of ours. 

I have an active profile on The Luna Hive and will soon be collaborating with Younique Post Natal to co host a post natal support group in the Guildford, Godalming and Farnham areas of Surrey.
