What is a Doula? A question I get asked quite a lot. A Doula is a women who supports other women emotionally and physically though pregnancy, birth and postpartum. She is there for the mother though the stages of her trimesters and is a welcoming ear and hand for times of comfort.

Blooming mothers and new deserve all the support though these precious times in their lives, as a mother myself since the tender age of 16, i no fully how much we need this unconditional support though presence, emotional connection and physical body work. This can help not only provide a breath of relive for the mother and preparation for birth and beyond, but this kind of support system and care is also prevention work.

Doulas have been around for centuries, long before ut was given a name, in the forms or midwifes, mothers and community's, lending there individual skills to support the pregnant mother, to be on call when she is ready for birth, to support her and her extended family though her postpartum. 

There is still many of us out there and luckily this role is growing as we are remembering the importance of this care and how this presence is a prevention for depression in new mothers.

They say the first 40 days of a new borns life can mark the next 40 years of the mother and baby wellbeing. 

I have had the deepest honour of training with incredible birth keepers, doulas and midwifes and Im delighted to be able to offer my services as a dedicated holistic Doula looking after mothers though conception, pregnancy and beyond.

My devotion is truly within the forth trimester, postpartum!

The one that often gets overlooked but I believe to be one of the most important trimesters. 

As a postpartum doula, I validate this intimate process and dedicate my unique, personalised and professional skillset into 'Mothering the Mother' with a special focus on recovery and bonding with baby.

This role as a Doula is to hold unwavering space, offer unbiased, evidence based information and hands on support for establishing lifelong practices that carry into motherhood and beyond.

Combining my teachings as a body worker, masseuse and holistic therapist within my packages to support you in all the trimesters of your life.

Every mother deserves to feel supported, I'm here to assist you in this process, for you not to feel alone or unprepared during your jouney.

I support women though Pregnancy, home Birth and Postpartum care with bundle packages filled with a wonderful array of offerings for each trimester.

Im here to offer deep nourishment, support though holistic practices and emotional wellbeing though your journey into motherhood, birth and your postpartum, from a non-clinical approach but also I do not deter you from seeking your own medical support during this times if you so wish.

I have studied and undergone intensive trainings rooted in ancient wisdom from Mexican Midwifery practices, to Mayan Massage and Ayavedic postpartum care and I have supported women though times of pre-conception then beyond with all these incredible teachings, i am beyond grateful to have access to these and be able to bridge worlds and bring them here to support you.

This is were I believe the blooming women can truly feel held in her journey, as these practices have been and still are very much present in the world and have supported so many women with there hands on approach to dedicated yet powerfully profound holistic care, within tending to the Mother though her incredible rite of passages, with unconditional love and support.

Here's a look at what I have to share with you and what these bundles can look like for you during your precious time.

​

PREGNANCY BUNDLE:

Pregnancy is your building block, your foundation for your preparation for birth. If you feeling you are in need of a deeper level of hands on, holistic care and support, this would be the perfect bundle for you. I feel prevention is key to your vitality within your pregnancy, preparing your body for birth and your postpartum. We can work though your birth plan and beyond, with help with nervous system regulation though body work and herbal remedies. 

Your pregnancy bundle offers monthly home visits, pregnancy massages and body work, including Rebozo massage and you'll also receive your own personal flower essence formula for additional emotional support. Each month we will talk though what's present for you and you will be then gifted a flower essence formula personalised to you and with what you have shared. 

​

BIRTH BUNDLE:

If I have been there with you though part of your pregnancy, then we would of built a foundation and bodywork preparation for your birth. If not, then welcome here! It is never to late for us to prepare for this moment. I have a pool for home birth which can be transported in your home. I can be there at your home for emotional and physical support though body massage and rebozo massage during your labour.

I offer presence and breath though every phase, including home care, belly binding, two food preparations including a bundle of food for mother after birth that will support her during her birth portal with foods and warm herbed drinks with Ayavedic food Medicine at the heart of the intention. I make sure your home is a welcoming presence for your babe and the perfect setting for you. Taking the thoughts out of your mind and allowing you to be fully present within this precious moment. 

​

POSTPARTUM BUNDLE:

Possibly one of the most precious and delicate trimester. This is a precious time were your body is in deep integration. Your being has opened up to the portal of birth and you are integrating parts of you and your story. Postpartum care is essentially prevention to many emotional challenges new mothers can be challenging with. I offer belly binding for after birth, this helps support your womb and organs as there will be much space after baby is born, this helps mother feel supported, prevents prolapse and Ofers a grounding energy. This can be worn over 40 days and I have belly binds to borrow for the duration of your postpartum recovery. Over the space of the first two weeks I will offer x4 3 hour home visits that will provide body and rebozo massage, belly binding for the womb, 2 herbal bath sitz blends for healing, herbal tea blends and 1 nutrient dense meal per visit (for 2 adults) There is a wonderful option of also receiving a Closing The Bones Ceremony from 4-6 weeks. Highly recommended for any women during her postpartum phase to essentially debrief about your experience and close the portal of birth both energetically and physically. 

​

CLOSING THE BONES:

This ceremony is rotted in Mexican tradition and offers the mother an opportunity to close her body both physically and energetically that has been opened up to birth. This is given to the mother starting from 4-6 weeks postpartum and beyond. This is held in the comfort of the mothers home. An offering of cacao is offered to the mother and to  all that are present in the home and the mother is then gifted a massage, followed by a herbal steam bath which I also provide using different herbs and plants for healing and detoxification. After the herbal steam bath you then receive the Closing of The Bones with the Rebozos, were your body is lovingly wrapped in certain points of the body and hugged in tightly, offering a cocoon like state and for the bones and pelvic bowl to be pulled back in in alignment. This process usually takes between 5- 7 hours depending on baby's needs thoughout the day. A slow and gentle process. A meal of warm root soup and bread is provided for afterwards (for 2 adults) Please see my tab in the menu bar "CLOSING THE BONES' for more in depth share on this topic. Essential part of any Postpartum phase.
