My name is Rosie. I am a doula based in Ampthill, Bedfordshire.

I followed my passion of birth and the power of women after the birth of my second daughter and completed my birth and postnatal doula training in 2017.

I am here for women on their journey into motherhood, one that I consider to be pivotal and enriching.  You have everything within you to birth your baby and I believe that relaxing into that knowledge can have profound and empowering outcomes as well as support to navigate today’s maternity care system. Each woman I work with receives unwavering support, my peaceful presence and steadfast protection: for you, your baby and your family throughout this new life phase.

I serve Bedfordshire, Milton Keynes and parts of North London – anywhere within an hour’s drive of Ampthill.

Please have a look around and drop me a line if you would like talk more.

It is within the relatively recent medicalised history of childbirth that the need for a different type of care-giver has occurred; one that provides continuity of care, prioritises the mother’s emotional wellbeing throughout pregnancy, birth and postnatally; and trusts fully in a woman’s ability to birth her baby.

So while the term and role for doula have now become internationally recognised, the role of a doula is rooted in ancient traditions and wisdom.

A doula is a non-medical female companion, trained and experienced in childbirth who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to the mother and her partner before, during and following on from childbirth.
