Mama Healing Journey
in your
First 42 Days
Experience deep rejuvenation as you enter motherhood with doula care and support
I mother YOU so that you are free to focus on caring for, bonding with and falling in love with your baby.
You will have energy for your other children as you will feel nourished, grounded, well rested and calm.
Rest
Ayurveda says that new
mothers need 42 days of
rest.
I support you so that
you can rest with your
baby, and have energy
for your other children.
I look after the cooking,
dishes and keeping your
space clear so that you
can stay off your feet.
Diet
A new mother does well with an easy to digest diet. I freshly prepare nourishing foods with warming spices so that you feel loved and grounded. Feel restored and balanced with a meal plan designed for your healing body.
Body Work
Ayurvedic postpartum body care for mama and baby soothes the nervous system and brings calm. Massage and baths with herbs will help your sleep, stress and hormonal balance. I nourish you with herbs and oils so that you feel balanced.

your needs.
I am so excited to bring a nourishing postpartum experience to the women and families I work with. Good care at this transformative time is life changing. The care I offer women is based in ayurvedic principles and focuses on rest and diet for mama, and herbs and massage for her and her baby. I am honoured to offer this style of care so mamas can experience a deeper post-birth rejuvenation while getting the rest they need.
- All it takes is a commitment to slowing down and allowing yourself to be cared for.
I take care of the mamas so they can take of their babies. Looking after mothers in this way immediately after birth, for an extended amount of time gifts them long lasting health benefits for many years – in Ayurveda they say how a woman is cared for in the first 40 days affects her health for the next 40 years. So rather than feeling, as many mothers do, exhausted and depleted for years after giving birth, they feel rejuvenated and full of vitality. These benefits are far reaching and are felt by their families and wider communities.
What I love is that it is simple practices that make such a profound difference. All it takes is a commitment to slowing down and allowing yourself to be cared for. I have witnessed how embracing a nurturing and nourishing first 40 days brings mama on a journey of balance, growth and health, and would love to bring you on that journey too. x
Postnatal Doula support is a thoughtful gift of an expert helping hand for a friend, sister, daughter or any expectant mama in your life.
New parenthood doesn’t have to be overwhelming and exhausting. With the right skilled help the
transition to parenthood can be gentler. A postnatal doula cares for new families by offering guidance, reassurance and practical help so that you feel more confident, more relaxed and more rested in the early weeks and months. We support and acknowledge your change into motherhood, your matrescence, as you
move through one of the most significant emotional times in your life.
Getting in touch before your baby is born ensures our availability. It also give you time to think about
your postpartum plan. However, you may not have thought about the time after birth until it happens, so it’s never too late to get in touch! We will always try to support families who contact us, and if we have no availability we will put you in touch with someone who does.
We support the whole family when a baby is born. We help everyone adjust in their transition to parenthood and can offer some guidance to partners on how best to support you. Having a postnatal doula there gives partners the time to rest and an extra pair of hands to help them mind you.
A postpartum doula is a trained professional, whose level of expertise is quite different to a family or
friends personal experiences. The well-meaning advice that comes from personal experience isn’t
always up to date information. With continuous training we keep ourselves up to date with
postpartum recovery guidelines and infant care recommendations. We therefore have the
knowledge to share with you about what is normal in your recovery, and in your newborns care.
We help families new, and growing. We can help you settle into your new family as it changes. Life will be busier so having support will make all the difference. Your other children will be going through an adjustment period as well. We will ease everyone through this time.
Some families we have supported felt they needed anywhere between four and twelve weeks while
they are still in the fourth trimester. This could be 2-5 times per week. We have been with other families when they have come out of hospital, for the first week or even just the first night. We always meet with families to help them figure out what will work for them, and how we can best
help.
Our visits are usually 3-4 hours between the hours of 9am-2pm and 7pm-11pm Monday to Friday. Overnights from 9pm-7am can be arranged also.
