I know how it feels to bring home a new baby. Everything has changed, and suddenly you're expected to keep up with the world while learning how to care for your baby and recover from birth.

​

We used to have a village to support us - now we need to rebuild that village for ourselves.

​

As your postnatal doula, I’m here to lighten the load, help you feel more confident, and make sure you don’t have to do it all alone.

​

I’m Ginny, an accredited Doula UK postnatal doula, trained through Younique Postnatal, working across Colchester and North Essex/Suffolk. I offer gentle, non-judgemental, flexible support for up to a year after birth.​

 

 

 

 

 

Postnatal doula sessions in your home

​

Every family’s needs are different, and your needs might even change day to day. Here's how I might support you in a session:

​

• Watch or cuddle your baby while you rest, eat, shower, or attend appointments

• Be a listening ear for whatever’s on your mind - or celebrate your wins!

• Prepare food, make you a cup of tea, and ensure you get time to enjoy them

• Look after older siblings while you bond with your baby - or vice versa

• Offer infant feeding support (breast or bottle) as a trained coach

• Accompany you to appointments or join you for a supportive walk

• Help you and your family feel more relaxed knowing you have an extra pair of hands to ensure your day goes a little smoother

​

Every session looks different, and if you’re not sure what you need yet, that’s ok. We can work it out together.

​

Virtual postnatal support

I offer online postnatal support for mums who want a calm, non-judgemental space to talk things through. A chance to discuss where you're at, how you're feeling, without opinions, and with someone who has been there personally, and is there supporting new mums day to day.

£29 for 45 mins

£80 for 3x 45 minute sessions.

​

 

​

 

​I offer a free, no-pressure 20 minute chat by phone, or video.​

Support doesn’t have to be booked in advance. Some parents wait until baby arrives, or when a partner returns to work. I support families up to a year postpartum.
