About me...

I’m a Leeds girl living in Knaresborough. I love being out in nature and going on adventures in Pepper our camper van, but equally I enjoy taking it slow, being on the sofa, cosy with a cup of tea watching Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings or Star Wars! I am obsessed with soup (and bread obvs), I eat it all year round no matter what the season… crazy right?! and I cannot resist any cake that contains Biscoff when I'm out and about!

​

My journey into birth work started after having my first baby and tbh it was a bit of a car crash (you can read more about that here). I was broken physically and mentally and I deep down, I knew it wasn’t supposed to be this way — and that every mum deserved better! I knew being a doula was my calling so I started reading, learning, and opening my eyes to just how amazing birth could be.

 

When I gave birth to my daughter just under two years later, it was everything I’d hoped for — empowering, healing, transformative. YES I did it! (Read more here).
No one should have to wait for baby number two to feel that way!

 

The way we birth stays with us forever. I want you to feel powerful in that moment — not afraid of it. My goals are to share positive birth stories, build confidence, and help break the fear narratives, so our future generations grow up knowing birth is natural, powerful and something to be excited about!

 

Alongside all things birth, pregnancy and postpartum I am really into anything holistic health related, alternative therapies etc. I can get lost in it all a bit cos there is just so much to learn! One of my faves is Ayurveda “the science of life” this ancient Indian medicine system has helped me so much in recent years when I was severely depleted and ill, it’s so powerful and interesting. My postpartum care is rooted in this.
