Birth belongs in
ancient circles
Holistic, practical doula support rooted in old wisdom, brought forward to the now;
Wholehearted care for pregnancy, birth and postpartum.
Let’s meet the needs of birth as it is today, together.
This is your birth story: your pregnancy, your labour, your becoming as a mother.
I am a certified doula with a deeply holistic practice. I hold space for birth to return to the sacred rite of passage it is meant to be. With a doula by your side you can feel confident; more informed, connected and empowered.
My support is unique to every woman, but a few things remain constant;
Every birth benefits from continuous, practical, safe, non-judgemental support.
The rest is woven magic; together, we weave ceremony and ritual into modern life, creating moments where birth opens within a sacred circle of care.
Your ancestors whisper wisdom in the wind and we listen.
“A doula is a trained professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to their client before, during and shortly after childbirth to help them achieve the healthiest, most satisfying experience possible” DONA International. A holistic doula is someone who supports in a way that cares for your whole self—body, mind, and spirit. I combine practical birth support (like comfort measures, positions, and information) with gentle, natural tools such as breathwork, massage, herbs and mindfulness to help you feel grounded and empowered. It’s all about creating a calm, connected, and meaningful birth experience that honors your unique journey.
Holistic birth packages tailored to your needs
I am a certified doula, trained in non-medical, holistic birth support.
My offerings are interwoven with gentle energetic work; ceremony and ritual rooted in Andean Shamanic practices which bring gratitude, balance and connection to feminine rites of passage.

Additional Pre/ post-natal visits
If you feel you would benefit from an additional pre/ post-natal visit these can be agreed ahead of time and scheduled accordingly. If after our agreement is signed you would like to increase the number of sessions, this can be scheduled according to availability. Each sessions normally lasts between 1-2 hours.
A written birth story
A beautifully written account of your birth journey; pregnancy, labour and beyond. The ceremonies, rituals, moments of beauty and awakening.The timeline, the special moments that may have been missed in the waves of labour, something to keep and share with generations to come.
Birth photography
If you would like images/ video during labour I am very happy to. I am not a professional photographer, so quality may vary according to lighting and circumstances. I have a digital camera that I can bring along, or a phone. Let’s discuss your needs. I will share all pictures via dropbox (and will delete them afterwards from my camera and dropbox). I would appreciate (with your consent) using pictures on my website or social media but we will always discuss this first.
Post-partum care
I offer bespoke energetic work for new mothers to find their centre and reconnect with themselves once the baby arrives. Holding your birth story in a sacred place, meeting it with ceremony, ritual and care. Each session is unique to your needs after birth, grounded in tradition and designed to honour your needs.
Perhaps you also need more practical home support once your baby is born? This could include childcare for your other child/ children (I am a professional nanny), cooking meals and/or batch cooking, light household duties, dog walking, groceries, changing bedsheet, laundry etc. Let’s talk and see what feels helpful.

With a holistic, certified doula, any birth, in any setting can be met with presence and empowerment…
For centuries, women birthed at home supported by their community. Women quietly, calmly tended the hearth by candlelight. They knew birth couldn’t be rushed or forced into being. Today, a holistic doula weaves old ways and new; returning birth to its innate place of intuitive, feminine power. With an emanently practical toolkit of natural pain relief techniques (massage, counter pressure and acupressure) physiological knowledge , medical pain relief and more. they offers the tangible support and skills you need to prepare for birth and motherhood. Whether you want to birth at home, in water or at the hospital, the continuous care of a doula throughout pregnancy, labour and postpartum has proven more positive birth experiences and outcomes. Step into Motherhood remembering who you are. feeling ready for who you are about to become.
When you meet the right doula, you and your birth team - whether partner, friend or family will walk (or waddle) into birth feeling confident, calm and aligned; ready, no matter the twist or turn labour takes. Doulas have the honour of knowing you more deeply than a medical professional might have the time to. Several heartfelt sessions together attune a doula to your needs; how you experience comfort and discomfort, the subtle signs to look for when you need help or reassurance, whether you need physical touch, laughter, silence or space in any given moment. She is part of the support system you turn to when you are overwhelmed by the sensations of birth. She knows labours expressions in mind, body and soul, helping you to ride each wave. A holistic doula walks the seen and unseen with you, sharing, listening and preparing for the physiological stages of labour, as well as the deeper side; the emotional, the spiritual, the past, the fears, the traumas, the wishes, the letting go, the surrender.
Today, our wise birth experts are often cherished midwives and valued doctors. And the safety and familiarity of home birth has been deferred to a hospital setting by default. Sometimes in a medical setting, birth can feels like a foreign, frightening concept; often interfered with, induced or unnecessarily traumatised by arbitrary standards and timings. Something birth was never meant to be. We are not here to hold fear around birth, we are here to reclaim this rite of passage; holding it with love, knowledge and deep understanding. Doulas support women and families while honouring their background, birth wishes and medical needs.
