Doula Packages

A complete prenatal, birth and postnatal package of care and support tailored to your needs.

*Antenatal Consultation 60-90 minutes; an opportunity for me to fully get to know you and your birth partner (if you have one), your hopes and wishes, your challenges and where our journey together begins.

*Antenatal Research & Signposting; I love a good bit of research and signposting and you can trust that I will never claim to know it all, however I will happily tell you ‘I will research that for you’ and I truly believe that your journey into parenthood or welcoming your next family member should feel empowered and fully informed. I will dedicate time in your antenatal period to ensuring any information you need is readily available too you to help you make informed choices and feel empowered.

*Antenatal home appointments; 2x 4hour home visits. These antenatal visits are tailored entirely to your needs, but don’t worry I will come with a plan if you don’t know what they are yet! My support could include (but is not limited to) working with you to create your ideal birth plan, digest and process evidence based information that affects your decisions, as well as support with anecdotal experience sharing. I can support you with experienced teachings for biomechanics and massage for birth. We can cover antenatal yoga to support your pregnancy comfort. I will listen through your hopes and fears around birth and help you process them or any previous birth trauma. I can help you prepare for early parenthood and support you to plan for how to care for yourself as well as your baby.

*On Call for your Birth; from 12 days before your estimated due date (or earlier if there is an expectation of an early arrival) During this time I will ensure I can be available to attend your birth within 2 hours (although usually a little quicker) I wont drink alcohol or travel out of the county.
