Amanda Down Doula

How is it May?! A little update from me ❤️
I have been pretty quiet on here - intentionally most of the time
This year has been very busy ~ so far supporting many gorgeous women and their families through pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
Days supporting Mama’s in the amazing Day Stay
This year I’ve really seen the beauty of working alongside others who align with my own values and passion for supporting women.
Working in ‘dream teams’ of doulas supporting families together. Working alongside amazing IBCLC’S, GPS and Midwives weaving our roles and skills together to give the best care possible.

As I’ve ventured on my own path to support my mental health and well being I’ve felt the real power first hand of how important it is to feel heard and space held. It’s given me more drive then ever ❤️

So, I may be quiet on here but behind the scenes oh so busy loving on all the Mama’s and families - and also loving on my own babe and family 💫❤️

This time two weeks ago I was getting messages from my dear friend that she was in early labour “I am either peeing my pants or it might be my waters”

Asking me moons ago in February to once again be her birth doula for their second home birth.

I am so proud of this woman and her wonderful partner.
The instinctual trust that they both had for her body was again such a joy to witness ❤️

This little love was definitely eager to join earthside just as her sister was.

A home birth that turned into a free birth

An early morning I will never forget and will cherish always

The rawness, the power, the stamina, strength and utter most determination and beauty took my breath away.

I find it hard to find adequate words to describe the moment I’m witnessing life being born. I feel calm and completely in awe of what women are capable of.

As the midwife was on her way; Mama instinctively moved her body into position in the pool and babe was out within 2-3 contractions. Straight up to Mama ❤️ Warmth, hugs and love

When the midwives arrived we had Mama and babe tucked up on the lounge with Dad and big sister close by ❤️ Grandma and myself making tea 💫

Thank you; my beautiful friend for again trusting me to be by your side. I think you are incredible and I am so proud of you 🩷
Love with no end to you and your family 🤍

Welcome earth side dear Bette; and little Delilah - you are going to be an amazing big sister x

Kind words 💫


It’s so important to surround yourself with good support and build your own village during such a transitional period

Thankyou for inviting me into your home and to walk with you during your early postpartum

You are a wonderful woman and to watch you blossom into motherhood was gorgeous and I have lots of love for you and your little family 🥰 xx

It’s a wrap ~ I’ve been pretty quiet on here the last few months but very busy behind the scenes ❤️
Thank you so much to all the wonderful humans I’ve had the absolute honour and joy supporting and getting to know this year.
I’m a big believer in fate and am forever grateful for crossing paths with so many amazing women and families this year that my heart is full.
I have some exciting new adventures on the horizon for the New Year 💜 which I just can’t wait to start - but for now, some time for slowing down with my little family.
From mine to yours - lots of love xx
