Birth support services
As a doula, I provide physical and emotional support, guidance towards accurate and up-to-date information, and advocacy for your choices whilst you navigate the perinatal period and make decisions about how you will meet and nurture your baby. However this looks for you, I will be there to support you with what you need, feeling nurtured, confident, and capable. At the heart of being a doula is the act of 'holding space', centring you completely in this journey, with unwavering faith in your innate ability to grow and birth your baby, and respect for your intuition in this process.

Wrap-around Birth Support

Individualised Birth Planning
£70 for 90 minutes
How do you come to make decisions that are best aligned for you?
What would the version of you that exists when no-one else is around, when you are living a life that is easeful and effortless, choose for your birth?
Let's explore these together, forming a unique map of your journey to meeting your baby.
​
These sessions will take place virtually.
Birth Reflection
£70 for 90 minutes
An opportunity to talk and share your birth story at whatever stage of postpartum life you are in (3 months, 3 years or 30).
​
It will not be a time to fix, but a judgement-free space to be heard and emotionally held, whatever feelings come up. This is not a therapy offering, although the time together may highlight a role for this, and I can support you with signposting or discuss other ways I can help.

These sessions will take place virtually.

Client Testimonial
"Alex is a rare, special person and was my guide on the journey to motherhood. I could depend on her in my darkest hour and she leaned into my needs: mental, emotional and practical. My son and I are indebted to her for a birth and start to life that were unrecognisably better for having her as my doula."
- Debbie
