DOULA
NOTTINGHAM
Hi I am Kerry-
My passion is to support through pregnancy, birth and postpartum period offering you reassurance, care and evidence based information. My role is to help you to feel informed to make decisions for you and your baby and I will support you without judgement.
I live in Mapperley, Nottingham which means I am conveniently located to support families throughout Nottingham choosing to birth at home, NUH (Queens & City) and Kingsmill. I offer a full birth and postnatal birth support package which includes antenatal sessions, birth attendance, postnatal support post birth and continuity of care throughout.
I absolutely love supporting women and birthing people to give birth and I will support all kinds of birth whether you choose a hospital birth, home birth, caesarean birth, VBAC, first time birth and subsequent births!
I am also a hypnobirthing teacher offering private and group classes across Nottingham. I am also a birth trauma practitioner supporting couples to heal after a traumatic birth or pregnancy.
“The most amazing person!
I cannot express enough how incredible Kerry was as my doula.
I am so grateful for the incredible support she provided during my challenging birth experience. I had initially planned for a water birth at home, but after being induced, 4 days of hospital issues, intense contractions I then needed an emergency C-section, she was there every step of the way for. Her calm presence, encouragement, and guidance helped me stay focused and empowered, even when things didn’t go as planned.
Her support during pregnancy and labour was beyond anything I could have imagined.
She truly made a difficult and emotional experience much more manageable, and I’m so thankful for all her help in bringing my baby girl into the world 🙏❤️”.
Doula Support
I offer a range of doula support services across Nottingham including birth and postnatal support (the full wrap around care) and standalone postnatal support for those who would just like support for the postpartum period.
I really care about what your want and I am passionate about supporting you to have the birth and postnatal period that you deserve. I absolutely love supporting others and feel incredibly lucky to be part of someone’s birth or postnatal journey.
Antenatal & Hypnobirthing Classes
Preparing for birth can be incredibly empowering and can support you and your partner to feel confident, excited and prepared for birth.
My 5* rated hypbirthing classes cover both antenatal information, hypnobirthing tools and skills you can use throughout pregnancy and birth. My course is evidence based using the most up to date information to help you make those important birth decisions.
Available in a group setting in person in Nottingham City Centre, in person at your home as a private course or online.
Birth Trauma Support
Experiencing a traumatic or difficult birth or pregnancy can turn your world upside down.
I offer non judgemental trauma support service to help you debrief your birth and support you in processing your experience to help ease any unwanted or negative and heavy emotions.
"Birth is an experience that demonstrates that life is not merely function and utility, but form and beauty"
