Postnatal & Night Support 

My Postnatal Doula Service

I am incredibly passionate in ensuring mothers have the very best support postnatally, and are able to relax and enjoy their new role without external stresses, or interruptions. I truly believe that too often new mothers are expected to be dressed, on school runs, cooking dinners, socialising and so on, after the birth of their new baby or babies. When in reality being in your pyjamas with your hair in a "Mum bun" at 3 o'clock in the afternoon is perfectly ok! The first 6 weeks after giving birth is a very important time and shouldn't ever be brushed aside or underemphasised.

​
