Birth doula
If a doula were a drug, it would be unethical not to use it. ~ John H. Kennell, MD
A birth doulas role is to support you to have the most positive experience possible, during pregnancy, labour, birth & postpartum. I offer emotional and practical support; by helping you and your partner become an effective team, explaining how the birth process works, finding comfort measures that work for you & providing continuous support. My goal is to help you to feel safe and relaxed. I do not lead nor advise, yet assist you to find the right choices for you. I work in a home, hospital or birth centre setting, and work alongside midwives, obstetricians and other professionals to help create the ideal birth team whatever kind of birth you are preparing for. I am a member of the National organisation Doula UK, and am committed to abiding by Doula UK’s Philosophy, Code of Conduct and Infant Feeding Guidance. You can find out more about Doula UK HERE.
