The Reigate Doula

04/09/2025

I’m babysitting for one of my gorgeous families and decided to follow a draw along on you tube to leave their oldest child a little note for the morning to say thanks for a fun bedtime. I am not normally able to draw at all so am chuffed with this one that it’s going on the grid.

Bathtime, double bedtime, kitchen clean up, dishwasher on and emptied ready for tomorrow, wet laundry dried and folded, gruffalo drawn 🫶🏼

Remember being a teenagers? Transformative years, right? You can the same and more from motherhood 🩷

What changes have you seen in yourself since becoming a mummy?

Reassuring, dedicated company & care on the postnatal ward. Valuable following every birth but particularly beneficial following a caesarean section, multiples birth or for a solo parent.

I’ll help you pass your baby for feeding, change nappies and fetch items you need. Holding your baby whilst you sleep or keep watch so you can relax whilst you continuing skin to skin. Reminding you to stay hydrated, manage pain, capture photos, minimise interruptions and advocate for your wishes. If necessary I will liaise with NICU for updates and support expressing milk to protect your feeding journey.

Your overnight companion, I will create an oxytocin boosting, comfortable environment to encourage bonding, support feeding, promote healing. Allowing your partner to comfortably return home for sleep or older siblings, safe in the knowledge that you are well cared for, with direct communication for sharing updates.

Bringing with me, a warm nourishing meal to help restore your energy and accelerate your recovery-something far more comforting and sustaining than the simple toast you’ll be otherwise offered.

I can also provide this service for the first night home with your baby.

East Surrey Hospital 8pm-8am

I’m also 9 years deep in to my parenting journey and this affirmation still applies 💕

I spent some time with my niece this morning, helping out my sister who has been poorly for the last few weeks, after some adventure golf we hit the driving range. I’d say 50% of my swings missed the ball and the other 50% of hits surprised myself!

I’m so proud of my sister for reaching out and asking me to support her, she’s incredibly independent and a solo parent to her amazing crazy golf pro daughter! ⛳️

It was fun for me to try something new that I’ve never done before!

How was your day? ☀️

Hanging up my goggles 🥽 for the final time this month. I’ve really enjoyed swimming for with it’s been the perfect activity for the lovely heat wave. And enormous thank you to everyone who has sponsored me, supported me, swam with me, it has really kept me motivated. I was cutting it a bit fine with finishing in these last few days, having to squeeze in an extra session today during work, but I feel really proud of myself for getting it done and raising lots of money for

Babies were enjoying a two hour nap in their cots this morning! Mum enjoyed a leisurely dog walk in the sunshine after the nursery run then had lots of admin to catch up on so I busied myself in the kitchen making up some lunch and extra for the freezer.

Using up some sweet potato I found in the fridge and a tin of butter beans from the cupboard, a bit of butter, some dried mixed herbs and a quick zzzuzh with the hand blender and they’re good to go with a protein rich lunch pack with nutrients and flavour.

Hope they liked it…because they have a few to get through! 😋

I’m going to be swimming throughout June, please support me and donate what you can. I signed up on impulse after seeing a Facebook ad 🙈 and, bar a leg wax, I am not at all prepared!! So raising lots if money for this important charity will definitely motivate me. Thanks x

My story:

My husband, Matt was diagnosed very suddenly with stage four bowel cancer in Sept 2020, he had no other symptoms other than a worsening tummy ache over a two week period. April 2021, on his 40th birthday, we were told his prognosis was “not long, we’re talking months not years, maybe six”. I have always felt confident that a cure will be found and told him he just has to hang in there long enough. Which he is doing brilliantly at.

This June I’m taking part in Swim15 for Bowel Cancer UK and raising money to help save lives and improve the quality of life of everyone affected by bowel cancer.

The money I raise will help to provide support and information to patients and their families like us, fund and support research into bowel cancer and support campaigns for early diagnosis and best treatment and care for all.

Ah the humble cucumber. You’ve been my trusty meal time accompaniment for last seven years, balancing out the beige plates of food. And now to learn that you’re basically medicine too. I bow to your awesomeness 🥒

Who is bringing you a coffee in bed this morning?

On Tuesday night I went and stayed at the very best guest house in the south coast; my mum & dad’s house.

It was so weird to be there without having my kids in tow, in the last 8 years I think it may have been only the second time I visited without either of them! 👧🏼👦🏼

I woke up (naturally 💆🏼‍♀️) in the morning, a few minutes later there was a knock on my bedroom door and my mum quietly came in with a coffee 🩷🩷 my mum is the BEST doula without even knowing. Unquestionably thoughtful, considerate and kind. She always just seems to know what I need without asking.

I took her to breakfast at which was absolutely delicious! Then we spent hours walking around Wi******er, chatting, exploring and solving clues on a which we both thoroughly enjoyed 🗺️

If you’re in the hazy postnatal days and want someone to bring you a coffee in bed, cuddle your baby so you can enjoy a shower without hearing the phantom cries then walk in to a tidied kitchen just let me know. I would LOVE to help 💕
