🌿 How Can Partners Support After Birth? 🌿

I wrote this new blog post with both the pregnant person and the partner in mind.

We live in a world that often leaves new mothers to navigate postpartum alone: expected to heal, feed, and hold everything together with little real support. Birth transforms everyone, and partners are not bystanders.

And while so many partners genuinely want to be there, to do it right… society doesn’t always give the tools, the space, or time for that.

This post is for anyone who wants to prepare for this big transition, and build a strong, connected start as a family. đź’›

Your breath is your anchor ⚓️

I know it sounds very simple, but if there is one tool, one thing that brings you back, that’s it: breathing

I talk about it with every pregnant person I meet. We practice it together. Because when the intensity of birth builds, it’s often the breath that brings you back.

I have seen it calm fear, release tension, and help women feel more grounded and in control.

Have you ever used breathing to get through a powerful or intense moment ? In birth or in life?

Honoring Mothers ✨

This May, I’d love to offer something special in recognition of the strength and resilience of mothers. I am offering all consultations at a reduced rate of $50 per hour ( normally $60).

This special offer is available throughout the month of May and is valid for pregnancy, birth preparation and postpartum consultations.

Do get in touch if you would like to book a session or share with a friend who could be interested !

The care we receive during pregnancy and birth shapes our birth experience. But most importantly, it shapes how we feel about the experience: how your voice was heard, how you were respected, how you were actively involved in decision- making.

Choosing a doctor isn’t just about medical expertise: it’s about finding someone who listens, respects your choices, and aligns with your vision for birth.

That is why I wrote this two-parts blog series to help you navigate this choice with clarity and confidence:

✨ Part 1: Understand The Different Approaches of Maternity Care – No, not all doctors share the same philosophy or approach to pregnancy and birth.

✨ Part 2: Key Questions & Factors to Consider When Choosing Your OB – Practical tools and questions to help you find the right fit.

*Hi, I’m Claire! Welcome to my little space, where I share my passion for pregnancy, birth, postpartum and motherhood ✨*

I am a French doula who, after spending several years in Singapore, has moved to Phnom Penh with my husband and our two children.
It was in Singapore that I became a mother and discovered my passion for supporting families through the journey of parenthood.
There, I trained and began my practice as a doula, accompanying couples during pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period.

As a mother who has navigated the experience of raising a family in foreign countries, I understand the unique challenges and joy that come with it. Whether you’re welcoming your baby in your home country or abroad, every woman deserves companionate support: a listening ear, a comforting presence and a knowledgable guide through the perinatal journey.

This belief is at the heart of my work as a doula. I am here to provide emotional, physical, and informational support tailored to YOU, your needs and your preferences.

My goal is to help you feel empowered to make informed choices, to ensure your feel confident, and nurtured throughout your path to motherhood.

If you are pregnant, are trying to conceive, or just had a baby, feel free to reach out. I am happy to hear your questions, thoughts and story.

Warmly,

Claire

I remember how vulnerable and overwhelming those first days after birth felt..

So many mothers go through this, yet it’s not always talked about. Support during this time is a need. We need support from friends, family, doulas, medical and holistic practitioners. I’m grateful to be there for women in those moments, helping them feel reassured and confident in their journey.

I love being a doula so much! This work is so meaningful to me, and I feel lucky to do what I love every day ✨

Two weeks ago, I had the pleasure of hosting an intimate workshop on postpartum recovery and how to prepare for a smooth and supported experience after birth. We shared, learned, and discussed the physical and emotional changes that come with this transformative time. It was a beautiful space of connection and support for expecting mums in Phnom Penh!

If you missed it and would like me to organize another one, let me know! Or, if there are other topics you’d love to explore—whether it’s birth preparation, newborn care, or breastfeeding—I’d love to hear your thoughts.

🤱🏼🤱🏽🤱🏾 Breastfeeding is a ride, especially in the first weeks! The long feeds, the doubts, the exhaustion—it can feel overwhelming. But you’re not alone!

It takes time, patience, and support, and little by little, it gets easier. Trust yourself, trust your baby, and don’t be afraid to ask for help.

The wait on those final weeks of pregnancy often come with added stress and expectations!

Endless questions like : “Is the baby born yet?”, “Any signs of labor?”, Isn’t it about time?” can feel overwhelming.
Your baby will come when the time is right, and it is ok to set boundaries đź«¶

Did you feel this way during your pregnancy? How did you handle it?

THE GOLDEN HOUR đź’«

As a doula, there’s nothing quite like witnessing the magic of the golden hour- the sacred time following the birth of a newborn. It’s a time when the world seems to stand still, the parents and their baby meeting for the first time ✨

You want this crucial time to be as undisturbed as possible, the oxytocin - the love hormone- to flow, to increase bonding , relaxation, and a smooth transition for the baby into the outside world.

Sometimes after birth, agitation and a flurry of tasks takes priority over the connection and rest necessary after the birth. Weighing the baby, taking measurements, cleaning and wiping them up can wait.

Comment “ GOLDEN HOUR” below and I will send you my latest blog post to discover the benefits of Golden hour and how you can enjoy this unique time with limited disturbance
