My Summary
About Me
I'm a certified Hypnobirthing Instructor and Postnatal Doula.
I have years of experience working as a Nanny and in a Pre-school setting.
I've worked with families with multiple children of all ages including newborns.
I feel really passionately about the post-natal period and how it can effect your parenting journey and sense of self for years to come. I believe that after giving birth, whether vaginally or through caesarian birth, birthing people need and deserve rest and a level of support that our society simply doesn't value or provide. I am here to provide that support in the way that works best for you and your family, whatever that may be.
Take a look at some of the services I offer and feel free to message me any questions you have, explain your needs and see if I could be the right fit for you.
- Space for you to talk about your feelings around your birth and/or parenting (birth debrief certification)
- Post natal nurturing hypnotherapy sessions tailored to you.
- Preparing nutritious, nourishing and comforting meals, smoothies and herbal teas for you and your family.
- Looking after your baby and/or other children while you rest, have time to yourself, take a shower or bath. (I am DBS checked and have my paediatric first aid certificate.)
- Herbal bath blend
- Light housework/cleaning/laundry/organisation/decluttering
- Helping you create a self-care plan and organise your support system
- Overnight Nanny
- Part time Nanny
A little bit about my interests: I'm an avid reader and some of my hobbies are watching films, going to galleries, gardening, cooking, knitting, sewing and going for walks. I have a keen interest in history, art and politics and I love theatre, which is where I used to work in the costume department.
My Experience
I was the eldest of 5 children which gave me a good grounding in how to care for children of all ages as well as an understanding of basic first aid, cooking, etc.
After having my daughter I had a complete shift in what I wanted to do with my career. I retrained as a Hypnobirthing Instructor and Postnatal Doula and began to work as a Nanny as well. I have over 5 years experience working in this area as well as working in a pre-school nursery setting. I am able to provide references from the lovely families that I have supported, whether it be in a childcare capacity or cooking, birth debriefing, and much more.
My Qualifications
My A-levels were in English Literature, Late Modern History, Art Textiles and Media Studies. My degree is in Costume for Theatre and Film.
Paediatric First Aid
Hypnobirthing Certification
Holistic Nutrition Certification for Pregnancy, Postnatal, Weaning and Early Years
