Personal Introduction:
Hello, I am Hannah and Mum to 5 children, we live in a small village in Devon surrounded by rolling hills and a 10-minute drive from the beach. I am a qualified Nursery Nurse and nurturing birth Doula. I volunteer for a family support charity, whilst training to be a practitioner with the National Childbirth Trust.
My first memory of being fascinated with pregnancy and birth, was when I was 7 and a family friend visited: she was pregnant with twins and I remember questioning my mum for hours, about how she could have TWO babies in her tummy! Fast forward, hmm nearly 40 years……. And I still find the process of pregnancy and birth fascinating.
Each pregnancy and birth is unique, and I believe every woman should feel empowered to ask for what she wants during the birth of her baby and in the postpartum days. As your Doula, I will support you during this unique time, offering you a safe space to talk through your wishes and help you plan the birth you and your partner wish to have.
I am currently training with the NCT to be a birth and postnatal practitioner, and I am also due to start training in the Rewind Technique for birth trauma.
