More about me

About Me

I feel incredibly lucky to do what I love every day—supporting parents to create the birth experience they’ve always hoped for. As your doula, my role is to provide unwavering support: whether you’re planning a calm home birth, a hospital birth, or navigating unexpected turns along the way.

After 20 years in the corporate world, I followed my true calling once my children became more independent. Having experienced three very different births myself, I knew I wanted to help others feel empowered, prepared, and cared for.

The Doula Hub

What makes my practice unique is the partnership I’ve built with my wonderful colleague Leti from MiracleBirth. Together, we co-founded The Doula Hub to offer clients something rare in doula care: complete peace of mind that you’ll never be left unsupported. If I can’t be with you for any reason, you’ll already know and trust Leti—and vice versa. We also provide remote back-up for each other during births, so there’s always a knowledgeable, caring doula by your side.

That said, when you hire me, you’ll primarily be working with me. My priority is to build a strong, trusting relationship with you and your partner. I’ll take the time to understand your wishes, prepare you with evidence-based information, and walk alongside you throughout pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

My Approach

I blend the calm, nurturing qualities of a doula with the organisation and reassurance you’d expect from my corporate background. Clients often describe me as calm under pressure and deeply grounding. I want you to feel confident, capable, and informed at every stage.

I have a particular passion for biomechanics—understanding how babies navigate the pelvis during labour, and how positioning and movement can make birth smoother and more comfortable. Alongside this, I draw on skills in aromatherapy, antenatal education, and advocacy to support you in both body and mind.

What I Offer

• A welcoming initial call to get to know each other

• Ongoing text/phone support from the moment you book me

• Two in-depth, 3-hour antenatal sessions (covering birth and postnatal preparation)

• A personalised flipbook with summaries, resources, and tools

• 24/7 on-call availability from 38 weeks until your baby arrives

• Continuous, in-person labour support with comfort measures & advocacy

• Postnatal visits to nurture your recovery and transition into parenthood

My aim is simple: that you feel truly supported, confident in your decisions, and able to welcome your baby with peace and calm—whatever path birth takes.

Let’s Connect

I’d love to meet you for an informal Zoom call to talk about your hopes for birth and how I can support you. It’s a chance for us to connect and for you to see if I feel like the right doula for your journey.
