Today, I am shattered.

On Yom Kippur, a day of reflection and return, our sanctuary was pierced by terror. Two lives stolen. Four wounded. And countless hearts broken.

As a Jewish mother, and as someone who walks alongside families in their most tender moments, I feel this grief in my bones. I have always used this space to serve, to offer care, calm, and connection. I vow to keep it professional and free of politics. This is not political. This is personal.

Today, I need you! We all need you!

I need your presence, your prayers, your quiet solidarity. I will continue to show up with all my heart. But today, I ask you to hold me, as I have held you.

Am Yisrael Chai.

As I return after a long pause, my heart is heavy with sorrow.

The recent terror attack in Manchester has left me shaken. For those building lives filled with love and nurturing new life, such violence feels particularly senseless.

To expectant mothers and parents holding their little ones close, know that Serene Birth with Mathilde stands in solidarity with you. I also stand with the Jewish community, acknowledging their raw grief and fear.

My thoughts are with the family of the deceased and the four seriously injured. May they find comfort, healing, and strength in the coming days.

In times like these, community is crucial. Let’s show up for each other with kindness, courage, and care. If you need support or a listening ear, I’m here.

With love,
Mathilde

The birth worker community has suffered a significant loss with the passing of Michel Odent. I was privileged to attend one of his final doula training sessions earlier this summer. Though he will be greatly missed, his legacy will surely live on. My thoughts are with his family, and I offer them my deepest condolences. 🕊️💔

L'Âme du Bougainvillier : Un Reflet de Soi 🌸

Mon bougainvillier, sitôt planté sous le soleil ardent, s'est dépouillé de toute fleur, me laissant croire à sa fin. Une tristesse m'étreignait, mais une obstination silencieuse me poussait à le laisser là, à l'observer chaque jour, une lueur d'espoir brûlant au plus profond de moi. Les sourires moqueurs et les plaisanteries autour de moi, bien que n'atteignant pas mon cœur, venaient murmurer à mes doutes.
Puis, un matin, de nouvelles feuilles sont apparues. J'ai alors laissé la nature œuvrer, sans intervention, forte d'une patience infinie et d'une persévérance inébranlable. Jusqu'à ce jour où des bourgeons ont éclaté, s'ouvrant en fleurs éblouissantes, une symphonie de couleurs vives.
Aujourd'hui, l'été est là, et après une année tissée de labeur, d'efforts, de déceptions, de remises en question, d'apprentissage et de partage, je me sens à bout de souffle. Comme mon bougainvillier, je ressens ce besoin vital de m'abreuver à la source, de retrouver mes racines, ma force, pour enfin renaître.

How do you hire a doula? 🤰✨

Finding the right doula is a special part of preparing for your journey, and the process should feel welcoming and reassuring. Many people start by asking for recommendations or browsing directory websites like The Doula Directory or Doula UK, where you can explore the profiles of experienced doulas.
Once you find a few who are local to you and align with your values and budget, the next step is to reach out—whether by filling in a form, sending an email, or simply dropping a message via WhatsApp.

When you contact me, we’ll arrange a free initial chat at a time that suits us both. This is a relaxed and open conversation where you can share your needs, hopes, and circumstances, while I’ll explain how I can support you in a way that feels personal and meaningful. Ideally, we’ll meet in the comfort of your home, but I also offer video calls to accommodate busy schedules just as I did today.

After our chat, I’ll send you a follow-up email summarising the key points we discussed, helping you reflect on everything and share it with your partner so you can make a decision with confidence. Once you’re happy with the service package, we’ll finalise everything with a signed agreement—marking the beginning of your support journey.

From that moment on, I’ll be here for you every step of the way, offering care, guidance, and a calm, reassuring presence as you navigate this incredible experience.

So if just as this lovely couple I met today, you wish to hear more about me and start planning your journey and childbirth, give me a like 👍, start following my page, or message me directly.

✨ Ever wondered what it’s like to have a postnatal doula? Imagine having a trusted go-to person for all your questions—whether it’s about your well-being, baby care, or little tips that make your first steps as a parent feel smoother and more confident. 💕

Today was a perfect example! And what made it even more special? It was a beautiful meeting between a midwife and a doula—two caregivers dedicated to supporting new life, now sharing this moment as one enters motherhood herself. 🤱

She needed a baby carrier fit check, so I visited her home and did a demo with my well-loved Boba scarf and babydoll Coroll. She practiced in my presence, guided with care.

And look at this precious moment—her and her baby, happy and comfortable. 🥰 If you notice in the picture, the baby is tilting his head to one side. This can sometimes happen when babies maintain the position they had in the womb. A cranial and pediatric osteopath can help, but until then, it’s best to limit long periods in the wrap for comfort.

Supporting new parents is what I love most. 💫 Have you ever had a baby carrier fit check? Let me know in the comments! 👇

Spending time with my family and tending my garden makes me want to share the beauty and message I see in nature.

In the quiet bloom of bluebells, there is a whisper of beginnings—the soft unfolding of something tender yet strong. As they stretch towards the light, I see the rhythm of birth, the trust in nature's steady embrace. Nature reminds us that growth is inevitable, and just like these blossoms, each birth follows the quiet cadence of nature.

Every aspect of who I am—my patience, intuition, and gentle guidance—blooms in my role as a doula and hypnobirthing teacher. Helping parents embrace the journey with trust and calm, is more than a calling; it is the way my heart listens, the way my hands hold space for new life to unfurl. In every birth, as in every spring, there is the quiet knowing that everything arrives in its own perfect time.
