My Summary

My Experience

I’ve spent most of my career working with new families, as a community midwife, helping them with the rollercoaster transition to parenthood in their own homes.

I’ve also worked privately as a postpartum doula, providing help and support as a ‘mother’s helper’ – tending to the home, the new baby, and older children.

I have extensive experience helping new mothers with breastfeeding support and post-birth recovery, and the early days of life with a new baby.

I’m a devoted auntie to four nephews, and godmother to three godchildren, all of whom I’ve been heavily involved with throughout their lives.

I have particular experience with multiples, both through my work and also with my twin godchildren, and would be confident to support a family with twins or more in the home.

From my work, I am most experienced with babies and infants, but have plenty of experience with toddlers and older children also.

I have an up-to-date infant and child life support qualification (this also includes basic first aid as well as emergency skills), and high level safeguarding training.

I have an up to date DBS that is available on request.
