I've decided to switch up how I work this year to support more of you in a way that's sustainable for me and accessible for you. I'll be running virtual Postpartum 101 Birth Plan, Postpartum Aftercare & Breastfeeding Prep group sessions once a month for the foreseeable future. So, don't worry if you can't make this month's sessions—there's always next month!

If you prefer private 1:1 and couples sessions, those are still available. Use the link in my bio to book a connection call for more info 🩷

So my sister sent this testimonial to me last week after I'd been her Doula last year. Every word has me bursting with pride and gratitude for being trusted to be a part of such a sacred time in her life 🥹

Supporting mothers through pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood isn't just a job for me—it's my calling, my passion! 🩷

I'm posting from the afterglow of spending the last 4 weeks (after a 4 month trip out of the country) supporting mothers in Lusaka that are prioritising their care whilst in the process of laying the foundations of their babies lives.

This work is deeply meaningful and profound. I LOVE that I get be a part of it!

I'm so present with the Mama's that I often forget to take pictures of what I'm doing (honestly most of the time it just isn't appropriate), so here's a picture of a beautiful flamboyant flower instead 😊

1:1 VIRTUAL POSTPARTUM SUPPORT SESSIONS

Mothering a young baby can feel very isolating, disorientating and overwhelming. I offer postpartum support sessions because I remember experiencing the feelings mentioned above. I remember wishing for a place or space where I could talk to someone who not only understood what I was going through but could also offer genuine support and guidance.

These convenient virtual sessions take place in the comfort of your own home and are a safe, non-judgemental space for you to off load and speak on what you're experiencing as you transition through the early stages of Motherhood.

What you can expect-

* A listening ear free from judgement or agenda
* Compassionate and intuitive emotional support
* Space to ask those 'is this normal?' questions
* Space for you to express your feelings around adjustments in your relationship or changes in your body
* Space to talk about challenges with family members
* Guidance on how to apply the 5 Universal Postpartum Needs into your life.
* A filter for non-medical questions/concerns regarding baby
* Educated information on newborn care
* Breastfeeding support and advice
* 1 week of post appointment support via WhatsApp

Each session will leave you feeling validated, acknowledged and supported!

If this sounds like something you could really do with right now or you'd like to gift this to a Mama close to you that you care about, book a free 30 minute Clarity Call by following the link in bio or DM me to start the conversation 💌

It was such a pleasure hosting Sunday's masterclass!

If you missed out, just comment '101' and I will DM you the replay 💌

A few key takeaways from the session-

1. During the 4th trimester a Mother's body is recovering from so much- up to 42weeks + of pregnancy the fact that she's literally JUST given birth the loss of an organ (placenta) a huge hormonal drop
- whilst contending with a major lack of sleep coupled with demands of breastfeeding. All of this is very physically and emotionally demanding!

2. For centuries, many indigenous cultures upheld the beautiful practice of supporting and providing hands on care for Mothers in the 4th Trimester. After seeing the list above, you can understand why!

3. Early postpartum is a critical time to focus on healing, resting, eating nourishing food and receiving as much support as possible. Planning ahead is the best way to give yourself the time and space to create a supportive environment for your overall wellbeing.

Early postpartum is a time to focus on healing, taking the time to plan ahead gives you the space to create a supportive environment for your overall wellbeing.
