Why choose a birth doula?

As your doula, I’ll help you feel calm, confident, and prepared as you welcome your baby.

I’ve supported families through first births, subsequent births, VBAC, HBAC, water births, and hypnobirthing journeys. I’m trained in the Biomechanics of Birth with Molly O’Brien, giving me practical knowledge of movement, positioning, and comfort strategies to support your birth.

Areas I Serve

I provide birth doula support across Cambridgeshire and cover births at The Rosie Maternity, Cambridge, Hinchingbrooke, West Suffolk and Peterborough hospitals.

I can also support you if you choose to have a homebirth.

My role as your Birth Doula is to learn about your hopes and fears surrounding your birth and to work together as a team.

What I do –

  • I offer emotional and practical support throughout your pregnancy and during birth
  • I support you and your partner/husband (if applicable) 100% in your choices about the kind of birth you want, whatever that may involve.
  • I draw on my knowledge and experience and can provide suggestions and/or information about pregnancy, birth and comfort during birth, bonding, feeding and the postnatal period to help you make informed choices.
  • I will be excited about supporting you and the birth of your baby!

What I don’t do –

  • I don’t offer medical advice or medical examinations
  • I won’t get in between you and your partner/husband (if applicable) rather support you both and/or support him to support you.
  • I won’t try to persuade you to change your mind about the birth you want (rather support you by providing information to help you make informed choices).

Birth Doula, Postnatal Doula

Katie was my doula when I gave birth to my son in October 2012. When I think of Katie, the first word that comes into my mind is “patience.” It was my first pregnancy, and I spent two sleepless nights at the hospital to deliver the baby. The progress was...
