Tracy Sealey

More about me

Hi, I’m Tracy and I’ve been supporting families with expertise, empathy, and a touch of humour since 2015. I won’t offer to realign your chakras and I’m afraid I can’t teach you how to channel the Goddess through your vagina. If, however, you are looking for down-to-Earth, evidence-based support from a highly experienced and knowledgeable doula, I’d love to chat.

What I Offer

The day you meet your baby is a big day, and you deserve to feel safe, supported, and in control—whatever that looks like for you. Maybe that’s an undisturbed pool birth at home, a planned caesarean, or something in between. My job isn’t to steer you in any particular direction; it’s to help you explore your options, feel confident in your choices, and take the pressure off you and your partner so you can focus on what matters. 

I bring a unique balance to my work: I’m thorough, proactive, and always thinking ahead, but I’m also calm and (almost) unflappable. Birth can be unpredictable, but I’ve been to enough of them (over 100!) to anticipate what you might need—sometimes before you even know it yourself.

I work with all kinds of families, including those who have experienced previous birth trauma or pregnancy loss, high-risk or complex pregnancies, induction, caesarean births and VBACS. I support clients giving birth at home, in a midwife-led unit, or in hospital. I’ve supported clients navigating both NHS and private healthcare as well as those giving birth at a local US military base.  I also support solo parents and LGBTQ+ families. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure about how to navigate the maternity system, I’ll be by your side to make sure you’re heard, respected, and supported every step of the way.

How My Experience Can Help You

As a doula, antenatal instructor and hypnobirthing teacher I have helped more than 500 families prepare for their birth and the early days and weeks of parenthood. I also teach workshops to healthcare professionals on informed consent and human rights in maternity care through my work with Birthrights. I was the project lead on informed consent and choice at The Rosie Hospital.  I have specialist training in optimal fetal positioning (biomechanics for birth), to help you prepare physically and in hypnobirthing to support your mental and emotional preparation. I’m also a breastfeeding peer supporter and regularly support my clients postnatally too. What does all this mean for you? It means I know how the system works, I know how to help you navigate it, and I have a deep understanding of how birth unfolds—and what can help things go as smoothly as possible.

A Fully Tailored Experience

I believe great support starts well before labour begins. That’s why I prefer to meet several times antenatally to really get to know you, understand what’s important to you, and prepare for different possibilities. The better prepared you are, the more confident you’ll feel—and the smoother things tend to go. If a change of plan is needed at any point, I’ll help make that transition as calm and stress-free as possible.

I also offer bespoke packages, tailoring my support to your specific needs. If you have particular concerns or requirements, we can work together to create something that feels right for you.

A Bit About Me

I live in St Neots with my husband, two teenage daughters, a clever border collie, and a very cuddly cat. I’m an extrovert who loves deep conversations, great food, yoga, and dancing (I’m currently obsessed with Ceroc). When I’m not at a birth, you’ll probably find me in the gym, out in nature, or enjoying a cuppa with one of my doula friends. 

Let’s Talk

If you think I might be the right doula for you, let’s chat. No judgment, no pressure—just honest, practical support to help you have the best birth possible.

What My Clients Say…

“Having Tracy involved in our son’s birth was the best decision we made. We planned a home birth, and she built both mine and my husband’s confidence leading up to it—but even when we transferred for a C-section, I still have only positive feelings about the experience. That’s because we felt empowered, informed, and confident in all the decisions we made, all thanks to Tracy’s support. She helped us prepare so well that by the time I went into labour, we actually felt excited rather than scared. On the day, she supported my husband to support me, stepping in at just the right moments. I wholeheartedly believe we wouldn’t have had such a positive birth experience without her.” – Alex T.

“Worth every penny. I had a challenging pregnancy, and it was like gold having Tracy there to provide her insight and help me focus on the bits I could control. Tracy is so warm and sensible—exactly the sort of person you want around at vulnerable and difficult times. She helped my anxiety 100% and contributed to a lovely birth and postpartum experience, for which I am so, so grateful. She is knowledgeable and evidence-based and will support you in your choices without judgment.” – Imogen O.

“Tracy provides non-biased, evidence-based information on all birth choices, which allowed us to make informed decisions for my pregnancy and birth. The breathing techniques and affirmations were particularly helpful, and I ended up having the unmedicated birth I’d hoped for!” – Naomi R.

“Tracy was our doula for the birth of our daughter last year, and she was honestly incredible—I genuinely don’t know how we would have got through it without her. We came into pregnancy after a difficult journey to conceive and were very anxious about birth, especially being in a medical environment after previous traumatic experiences. Tracy was amazing—empathetic, compassionate, and focused on making sure we felt empowered in our decisions. She filled in the gaps in our knowledge while gently challenging some of our preconceived ideas. The birth itself was difficult and ended in an emergency caesarean, and Tracy was our rock—ensuring we were given time to think, backing our decisions, making sure we were listened to, and providing much-needed physical comfort and care. She is honestly our hero. Everyone needs a Tracy with them throughout their pregnancy and birth journey—we simply can’t recommend her enough!” – Sarah
