Am I right for you?
I'm Jess - I have two daughters, Olive & Alba and I love to read, I've tried my hand at writing poetry and children's books and I long to be good at pottery, but I'm not!
I have trained with The Original Birth Connection, Birthing Awareness and The Birth Uprising to become experienced in birth physiology, perinatal trauma, inclusivity and advocacy, as well as hypnobirthing, aromatherapy and more.
It's such an extraordinary and incredible thing to have a baby and I am passionate about supporting people to have positive and informed experiences. If you are looking for someone who will support you no matter what, advocate for you, listen to you, then let's have a chat
I have trained as a perinatal Doula and taken masterclasses in various specialisms to try and ensure I can assist with births in every form
Advocacy & Inclusivity
As a Doula, I am there to support any type of birth for every type of person. I have attended masterclasses to ensure I am fully aware and ready to protect and advocate everyone. I will never inform your choices but will help you to make your own informed choices.
Aromatherapy
I am a trained aromatherapist and perfumist and now apply those aromatherapy skills to my birth work. I offer essential oils in pregnancy, labour and post-natally and will always arrive equipped with my aromatherapy kit.
All Births
There is often a misconception that Doulas only attend physiological or 'natural' births. This is not my scope of practice at all. I am a huge lover of and advocate for home birth but have also undertaken a masterclass with The Caesarean Birth Specialist so I can ensure my clients have all the facts regarding all types of birth
Physiology & Biomechanics
One of my favourite topics is birth physiology. How does the uterus work - how does your baby tell your body it's ready to be born - how do you encourage your hormones to do the hard work for you? The more you understand your body the better you can work with it. I also love to encourage the use of biomechanics and body work in pregnancy and birth - finding positions that help your baby into an optimal positions and ease their way out
Birth Trauma Resolution
Birth can be unpredictable and for some it can be traumatic. I try to avoid this by preparing my clients ante-natally but birth can also trigger traumatic memories for some people. When we work together, we can talk about any fears you may have and also process any uncertainties post-natally. If you have experienced trauma, I can offer the 3 Step Rewind Process to help you to overcome it
Breastfeeding
Antenatally, we will discuss your feeding preferences. If you choose to breast/chestfeed then I will be on hand to help you establish that postnatally as well as provide you with loads of info and practical support before you give birth. Breastfeeding can be tough initially. I have trained with the ABM to provide support and will help guide you with positions and latching and also signpost you to further help if you need it. I will also be there to be your cheerleader, refill your water and tell you how incredible you are!
