Postnatal Doula Services

Every family is different therefore the support I offer is flexible in order to meet your needs. I offer various packages from a full postnatal package to over night support for exhausted parents, postnatal planning sessions or practical support in your home on an hourly basis. Let's have a chat and see what will work best for your family. 

• A bespoke postnatal planning session designed to explore what you are looking for from your postnatal period so we can work together to achieve that
• In home support caring for your newborn while you sleep, shower, spend time with siblings....
• Feeding advice and support
• Meal preparation with an emphasis on nourishing healthy meals to support the postnatal healing process
• Emotional support and a listening ear 
• Overnight support to give you a break
• Light housework
• Expert advice on what your body and baby needs in these vital few months to heal and thrive

With both of the packages support tends to start in blocks of three hours, three times a week graduating down in both length and frequency as baby grows and mum recovers from birth. As you can see the larger the package the cheaper the hourly rate. 

• Six week support package -  40 hours of  in person support in your home, virtual WhatsApp support, postnatal planning session - £500
• Four week package - 25 hours of in person support in your home, postnatal planning session - £350
• Ad hoc support - £15 per hour
• Overnight support -  £150 for nine hours, usually 10pm to 7am but we can chat through other options that suit your family

Are you having a baby? YES Have you had a baby? YES 

It doesn't matter whether this is your first or fifth baby every mother deserves to have the best possible postnatal experience. My role is to mother you so you can spend all your time bonding and caring for your newborn baby. In many cultures it is unheard of that a new mother would be up and about doing housework, greeting guests, cooking etc More often the community would rally around and support the new family while they concentrate on the gorgeous blissful precious weeks of bonding. In western culture these traditions have been lost and too much pressure is often put on new mothers to be everything to everyone. I am passionate about bringing back the calm, restful and nurturing environment to these precious weeks and months.
