About Us
Hi I’m Carla and I have a job I love!
I have 2 children, 1 grandson, a dog and a long suffering husband who’s used to holding the fort (rather well I must say) while I disappear for days/nights or just a few hours to support parents in one way or another.
In my doula journey I have witnessed the remarkable strength of women, and partners who gain in confidence to calmly provide support to those they love. Pregnancy, birth and a baby’s arrival can all be completely unknown territory to new parents and the job of a doula is to teach skills, provide knowledge and help everyone to trust their instincts above all else. It’s my passion… can you tell?
I’ve met the most amazing, warm and wonderful people clients and doulas, midwives and alternative practitioners… setting off on a days work is always an exciting and happy day.
I love seeing the boost in confidence antenatal sessions provide and can't wait to bring this to more local families
Hi, I'm Emma and I'm so lucky to have a job that truly feels like soul work!
I'm mum to two wonderful boys, and married to my amazing husband. I couldn't do this job without the support of my family who are so very understanding when it's time for me to whizz off to support a new family at its very beginning.
Through birth work and breastfeeding support I have met and walked alongside so many incredible women and their families. The strength and beauty of the female body in labour is something that will always be awe inspiring to me, and something that feels like the greatest honour to witness and be trusted to support.
Empowering new families through pregnancy, birth, and into postpartum is such passion work for me; and a job which feels like it truly makes a difference!
Understanding your rights and options in labour is so important and, alongside learning skills to prepare for labour and birth, I believe sets the foundations for a positive and empowered experience. Knowing you have ownership over your experience, and having the power of choice can be the difference between a traumatic experience and a positive one
