Your baby's birth day is also yours - a rebirth as you transition from maiden to newborn mother. It's a seismic shift - physically, mentally, and emotionally.
“The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new."-Osho
With over 25 years of experience supporting women and their families, you can be confident that I have the knowledge, skills, and tools to help you navigate this change with ease.
Originally based in East London, I recently moved to North Nottinghamshire, where I now offer doula support within a one-hour drive from Retford (DN22 7_). Having been well-established in the South for so long, with a great network of fellow birth workers and word-of-mouth clients, I decided to join Doula UK via the 'Alternative Pathways' programme to help me connect with clients—as well as other local doulas and birth workers in my new area.
As such, I'm currently considered a 'mentored doula' under the beautiful guidance of my wonderful mentor and teacher, Nicola Goodall, with whom I originally trained through Red Tent Doulas. Our work as doulas is always evolving. It's a beautiful sisterhood to be part of.
As I work towards becoming a 'recognised doula' with Doula UK, I'm looking to connect with families willing to support me on this journey. This would simply involve signing a form before we begin working together, confirming your kind agreement to work with me, and completing an online response form afterwards to answer questions about your experience. By way of thanks for your kindness and support, I'm currently offering my Birth and Postnatal Doula services at a reduced price. If this sounds good, I'd love to chat with you.
It's really important to me that you receive the right care for you and your baby. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. I prefer to create bespoke packages to suit individual wants, needs and budgets; incorporating elements of the wide variety of additional birth and postpartum services I offer, should these be of interest.
I warmly invite you to join me for a virtual cuppa. This is an opportunity for us to have a very informal chat to see if we'd be a good fit to work together. If so, we can then start planning a way forward! I really look forward to meeting you.
With love,
Helen x
