Getting in touch
More about me
Hi! I’m Becki and I’m a Sacred Birthworker, Reiki Guide and Oil Alchemist based in Northamptonshire.
I live in a village near Kettering, in the north of the county with my husband and 3 children.
A few things about me: I have home educated 2 out of my 3 children who are neurodiverse, we have 2 cocker spaniels called Cooper and Otis, and I love nothing more than sitting in my hot tub in the evening!
I also LOVE essential oils and I enjoy sharing them with clients looking for natural alternatives to pharmaceuticals to help support them during pregnancy, birth and into parenthood.
I became a Doula in 2014 and since then have support various types of birth including vaginal birth after caesarean (VBAC), home birth after caesarean (HBAC), inductions, caesareans and freebirths. Before becoming a Doula I worked in the NHS as a Maternity Support Worker which has equipped me with an in-depth knowledge of our local hospital protocol, policies and procedures.
Doula Services
As a Doula I can offer pregnancy, labour, birth & postpartum support which can include birth or postnatal planning, perinatal education and birth attendance. I am a Breastfeeding Specialist and offer breastfeeding education antenatally and support with infant feeding in the postpartum period.
I am an holistic, pro-choice doula: What do I mean by that?
When I refer to holistic care, I am talking about providing support from a whole person-led approach. I do not offer one size fits all support. We are all individuals with unique needs, both physical and emotional, and my care will reflect this – my support is tailormade and unique to you and your circumstances. It matters to me that you may have other family members to consider, that you may have a career you love or that there may be other factors prominent in your life that are important to you and that will come into consideration when you are considering birth and parenting choices. I am a pro-choice doula which means that I respect your right to personal choice, regardless of my own thoughts or opinions. I consider my role to be one of providing you with evidence based research and anecdotal information which you can use, alongside any medical advice you are given, to make informed decisions with regard to your care. I will not advise you and I definitely will not coerce you – your decisions are yours to make and own.
I’m a little bit of a hippy at heart but don’t let that fool you into thinking I’m all light and fluffy! When it comes to supporting individuals and families I am fiercely passionate about birth rights and choice and I will do my utmost to ensure you have all the information you need to be able to feel confident in your choices and decisions, whatever they may be.
Birthworker Support
I am a Developing Doulas Companion, supporting both Birth and Postnatal Doulas. I am able to offer my services as a Primary Companion for any new Doula requiring support in the first years of practicing, as well as offering my support to existing Doulas.
If you are looking for Specialist Companion support, my strengths lie in birth rights and supporting ‘high risk’ people choosing to birth outside of the system or against recommendations. I support people wishing to freebirth and I am also experienced in working with neurodiverse families.
Work with me!
I would like you to feel completely comfortable and confident when you decide to work with me, in whatever capacity that is. I work ethically and honestly. Life does not always come with guarantees but what I can promise you is that I will be upfront and honest with you and that I will always be working with your best interests at heart.
