My services
As your doula I will  support both you and your partner, to reassure, encourage, comfort and empathize with you during the birthing of your baby.   I will respect your choices and will remain with you for the duration, providing a continuous presence during your labour and birth.  I will help you  recognize and trust your own natural instincts and ability to know your body, your labor and your baby.  I will encourage you to 'listen' to your body throughout. I will recommend a variety of coping skills and labor management techniques, reminding you and your partner of your options. I will help you discover and draw on your strength to do your very best and be proud of your effort.  I will strive to maintain a calm atmosphere.

As your postnatal doula, I will perhaps look after baby to allow you to rest, I may cook for you to stock the freezer for a few days, I can grocery shop, or accompany you when you go out the first few times with baby, I will provide you with information if you have any feeding or sleeping problems with your baby, and again, reassure, encourage and comfort you if you need it.

 

My qualififcations and experience


About me

From Scotland, I am a mother of three children. All were born prematurely--my youngest in an ambulance! I have lived abroad for more than 12 years now, and have lived on four continents. My children are now teens, and I understand what it’s like being away from family and friends. I have always been drawn to babies and birth, and being a Doula is a perfect job for me. I will encourage you to trust in yourself, and listen to your heart, helping you make your birth, truly, a Labour of Love.

I am a generally a calm person, and have a good sense of humor. My goal is to help create a birth experience for your family that will be memorable and joyous.

For post natal clients, I am able to help in the most practical way for you, providing assistance where you most need it, whether it is taking care of baby to let mum rest, or shopping and preparing food for a few days, helping to establish feeding for baby, or to help create a routine for the whole household.
