What do you need to help you recover and transition after birth?
What do you need to help you recover and transition after birth?
I offer two main types of postnatal support.
One is a relaxing session with me to help with your transition into motherhood following birth.
The second is practical support and help in caring for yourself, your baby and your home in the form of my Postnatal Doula services.
Mother Nurture Ritual & Massage - 90 minutes - £80
This gentle ritual takes place in your home, and lasts around 90 minutes.
I personalise the experience so it's right for you. This can include elements such as music, aromatherapy, gentle touch using hands and a rebozo (Mexican 'scarf'), homeopathy, crystals, relaxation and more. Most importantly, I give you a safe space to talk and let go of any emotions that you may have been holding on to from giving birth, however long ago that was.
I draw on some of the amazing elements from the Mexican tradition of 'Closing the Bones', and other postpartum traditions that promote recovery.
A session is £80 and can be booked for daytimes and some evenings. I can take payment in cash, by card, PayPal or bank transfer.
Postnatal Doula Support - Min 2 hours - £20/hour
I come to your home after baby is born to 'mother' you so that you can concentrate on mothering your baby.
How this works is based on what you need but it can involve taking care of older children, breastfeeding support, light cleaning, talking through your birth, and making you nourishing food. We would have a chat before I come along to see what would be most suitable for you and we can change things as we go along.
I offer this as a one-off service or as an ongoing, regular arrangement.
I offer gift vouchers for both of these service if you would like to treat a partner or friend.
I can post out the voucher for you direct to the recipient, free of charge.
