Philosophy & ServiceI believe passionately in a woman's amazing natural ability to birth her baby given the right support and safe environment. Childbirth is something that all mothers remember for a lifetime and my aim is to help to make your experience a happy, satisfying and empowering one. I aim to provide you with the knowledge to make informed decisions, provide you and your partner with the support you deserve and hopefully make your experience a positive one by helping you prepare and carry out your plans for the birth and facilitate communication between you, your partner and your caregivers.

Philosophy & ServiceIn 2005 I had the great privilege to be a birthing partner for a very close friend. It was one of the most incredibly moving experiences ever. I loved every minute of the birthing process and knew that somehow I wanted to work in this area. I learned about doulas and set about training. To be able to offer practical and emotional support to parents at such a special time is an honor.

Philosophy & ServiceMy philosophy is caring, nurturing and embracing the experience that a new life brings.
I aim to encourage and empower parents-to-be to have the birth they desire. To give parents-to-be the information they need to be able to make and be confident with their own choices. I support the mother in getting to know her baby and help her find her way as a new mother. I believe the early weeks with your newborn child are very precious and I believe they should be cherished. I tend to encourage listening to and acting on your feelings.
