A doula offers continuous emotional, practical, and informational support through pregnancy, birth, and the weeks that follow.

During the antenatal period, I help you prepare emotionally and physically for labour, guiding you through birth preferences and comfort techniques.

After your baby arrives, I provide gentle, traditional postpartum care in your own home, supporting feeding, rest, recovery, and the transition into parenthood.

Midwives provide essential medical care and clinical expertise.

A doula’s role is completely non-medical: I’m there for your comfort, confidence, and calm.

I work alongside your midwife, focusing on emotional wellbeing, reassurance, and practical help so you feel listened to and supported throughout your journey.

Many families find this blend- midwife plus doula- offers the most balanced care.

Yes. I offer in-person doula care across parts of Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, West Oxfordshire, West Berkshire and the Cotswolds.

If you live further away or prefer remote sessions, antenatal and postpartum support can also be provided online via Zoom. If you live further afield, please do contact me. I am happy to talk things through to see how we can make it work.

This flexibility means you can still receive consistent, personal care wherever you are.

Many families book around the second trimester to secure their chosen dates, especially for in-person support.

However, it’s never too early, or too late to reach out.

Whether you’re newly pregnant or already postpartum, I’ll do my best to accommodate you within my service area.

Absolutely. My support includes partners as much as possible.

Together, we explore ways your partner can feel confident and connected. Whether that’s through hands-on comfort techniques, shared decision-making, or simply feeling supported themselves.

A doula nurtures the whole family, not just the birthing person.

Life with a new baby can be unpredictable, and flexibility is part of my approach.

If you need to adjust your sessions, extend your postpartum support, or change your booking, we’ll talk it through together.

My aim is to provide continuity and reassurance that adapts to your needs, not the other way around.

My doula packages are priced at a fixed rate so families know exactly what to expect and can plan with confidence.

However, I understand that circumstances vary, and I never want cost to be the reason someone goes without support.

If you feel the fee is beyond your reach, we can discuss a tiered payment structure or instalments to make it more manageable.

My goal is always to find a balance that allows you to access the care you need while recognising the value of the work involved.

Yes! When time and costs allow, I offer free or reduced-fee support to families in need within a 10 mile radius.

This honours the original roots of doula care: women supporting women, sharing knowledge, and building community through compassion rather than commerce.

If you or someone you know could benefit from this kind of support, please reach out. I’ll always do my best to help or connect you with local resources.
