I've been filling my cup this week with the people that I love, doing the things that we all love.

August is my month off. I need this break from being on call so that I can come back in September ready to support my next 8 up coming births between now and Christmas. 1 more week to go before I am back to work. 🥰

How do you fill your cup? Comment below x

You want to feel prepared. Calm. Supported.
You don’t necessarily want a doula in the room, but you do want to feel like one has helped you get there.

The Birth Team Ready package is for you if you want your birth partner to feel grounded, confident, and ready to support you in every way that matters. Think of it like a doula training course for your birth partner, but you are there too and also benefiting from everything....

We’ll work together through six powerful sessions, exploring everything from advocacy and birth rights to massage techniques, hypnobirthing tools, and how to create a calm environment, no matter where or how you birth.

This is so much more than a class. It’s preparation with heart. And it’s the kind of prep that leaves you and your partner feeling like a real team.

This package is right for:

✨ When you’re craving clarity and confidence, but want the support to come from someone you already trust—this one is for you.
✨Families who don’t want a birth doula present during labour but still want to feel completely prepared.
✨Birth partners who want to learn how to support as confidently and effectively as a doula would.
✨First-time parents who are unsure about the hospital system and want clarity on navigating NHS protocols.
✨Couples looking for deeply practical antenatal education with a doula's mindset and presence.

Book your spot now. 2026 diary is open. Just two 2025 spaces remain: October and November.

You want someone in your corner. Someone who just gets it.
Not someone who shows up when you are already in labour, but someone who has been there all along.

The Foundation Doula Package gives you everything you need to feel supported from the moment you book through six weeks postpartum.

We will meet for in-depth antenatal sessions, build a birth plan that truly reflects you, and when birth begins, I will be by your side, holding space, helping you move, keeping the calm and supporting yor birth partner to be the most important presence in the room

After birth, I will check in, listen, support you as you navigate those tender first days. This is about your whole experience.

This package is right for:

✨ If you want to feel informed, safe, and emotionally held from beginning to end,
✨Families who want continuous, personalised doula support throughout pregnancy, labour, and early postpartum.
✨Anyone feeling anxious about birth and wanting someone consistently by their side from pregnancy to after baby arrives.
✨Parents seeking practical, emotional, and physical support during labour with a familiar, calm presence.
✨Those wanting help creating a tailored birth plan and navigating medical systems with confidence.

Let’s chat. My 2026 diary is now open. One birth available in October and one in November 2025.

You want birth to feel calm, not chaotic.
You want to feel connected to your body, your breath, and your baby.
And you want someone who can help you stay in that space, no matter what happens.

The Full Mind Body Doula Support package includes everything from the Foundation package, plus dedicated hypnobirthing sessions and a deeply nourishing pregnancy relaxation / biomechanics or aromatherapy treatment visit.

This is full-spectrum support, for your mind, your body, your soul.

During pregnancy is where the magic really happens. You’ll learn powerful tools that keep you centred, and when labour begins, I will be there to bring you back to that calm space when you need it most.

After birth, I’ll stay in close contact and return for an extended postnatal visit where we can dive into your healing and recovery—or just let you rest while I hold baby.

Who is this package best for?:

✨ If you want to feel deeply prepared, truly seen, and fully supported, this is for you.
✨ Families who want everything in the Foundation package plus in-depth hypnobirthing.
✨ People who are especially focused on a calm, physiological, and mind-body integrated birth experience.
✨ Those who want extra pregnancy relaxation support, aromatherapy, and a longer postnatal visit.
Ideal for first-time parents or anyone wanting to deeply immerse in both emotional and physical birth preparation.

Spaces for 2026 are now open. 2025 only has two birth slots left: 1 x October and 1 x November. Reach out today to book your free call.

You might not want someone physically with you in the room whilst you birth but that does not mean you should go through this alone.

The Virtual Doula Support package offers real-time, compassionate support no matter where you are in the UK.

From 38 weeks until six weeks postpartum, I am just a message or call away. You’ll have someone to check in with, guide you through early labour, hold yours and your birth partners hand from afar, and help you feel grounded and not alone, even at 2am.

This is a flexible, affordable way to access expert guidance without having to invite anyone into your birth space. And yes, it’s also the perfect add-on if you’ve done my Birth Team Ready course and want extra backup.

✨ If you are craving continuity, clarity, and kindness, but want it from a distance: this is your support.
✨ If your birth partner would benefit from having someone to help them in supporting you throughout labour

Message me to reserve your place. Available for any UK birth in 2025 and 2026.

Choosing the right doula support can feel like a big decision, so this week I am going to walk you through it.

Over the next few days, I will be sharing an in-depth look at each of my updated doula packages. Every one of them has been designed with care and intention, shaped by everything I have learned from the incredible families I have supported over the past year.

Whether you are thinking about having a doula by your side during birth, or you simply want your antenatal preparation guided by someone who has walked this path many times before, this series is for you.

Each package offers something different, because every birth journey is different. Your needs, your hopes, your story, your budget,......it all matters. And if something in one of the packages speaks to you but you need a little flexibility, just let me know. Support should fit you, not the other way around.

The truth is, choosing a doula is not just about what is included. It is about how you feel when you talk to them. That sense of comfort, trust, and ease. It is a little like dating, when you know, you know.

So if you are preparing for birth, feeling curious, or just wondering what kind of support might suit you best, follow along this week.

Send me a message, ask your questions, or book a free chat to see if we connect. I would love to be part of your birth story.
