More about me
I live in Sutton, Surrey, with my three children and I am also mother to a grown-up step-daughter. I have experienced two hospital induced labours and one spontaneous hospital birth.
I have experience in different parenting situations and have built a blended family with my husband and recognise the importance of being non-judgemental and inclusive of partners and other family members at this amazing time.
I am calm , well organised and have a great sense of humour. I understand how good support during labour and birth, of both the woman and her partner can make their birth more positive.
The birthing environment is such a crucial element of the process and I can work with you and your healthcare professionals to support you wherever you choose to birth your baby. I can support you in your labour providing practical ideas such as advice on aromatherapy, positions, massage and also support you emotionally during labour and in the postnatal period.
I am available for both hospital, MLU and homebirth in South London and the North Surrey area including Epsom and St Helier, Kingston, St Thomas’s and St George’s hospitals.
