Looking for a doula near you?

This is a place to find local doulas to help you to prepare for the birth of your baby, support you through labour or to help out once your baby is born.

Please use the form and the tags below to find doulas near you or who provides online doula support. Don’t worry if you can’t find a doula who lives really nearby – most doulas will indicate how far they will travel to clients. If you would prefer a doula who is Black or Brown or who identifies as LGBTQ, please choose the relevant tag.

Please enter the first half of your postcode only if you are doing a search by geography

Some doulas may describe themselves as ‘mentored’ or ‘acknowledged’ or ‘recognised’. This means that they are either newer doulas going through a period of Mentoring/Companionship, or they have finished this process of learning and reflection. If you are searching for a doula and making a short list, right click on the doula to open them in a new tab.

If you are a Doula looking for mentoring with a DD Companion, please choose the ‘DD companionship’ tag to bring up the list of Companions.

Not all the doulas in this directory have done the Developing Doulas training. We are all independent and self-employed. If you are looking for a doula, we recommend talking to more than one and following your heart. Who you invite into your life during pregnancy, birth or new parenthood, is an important decision. Developing Doulas does not regulate doulas or run a conciliation service. We are, however, always happy to receive feedback about how you felt having a doula support you.
