My main reason for working as a Doula, is my unwavering belief in the power of the individual to create peace and healing for themselves.
I have learnt that the key to being able to do this for yourself lies in the connection to others, and the sense of being seen, heard and validated. This is the gift I would like to offer to every single one of my customers.
The name Heart and Mind Doula reflects my approach:
Compassion + Practical Efficiency — the foundation of everything I do.
My Background
I have lived and worked in various parts of the world as a teacher and a legal assistant. I am a mother of three and a grandmother of two, and thoroughly enjoying it!
Caring for others has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I have:
Participated in various support groups
Volunteered for charities
Been active in community work
Supported family members through pregnancy and birth
Through personal experience, I understand the emotional weight of stress and fears, especially around childbirth, and that each journey is personal. But there are shared tools that can help us move toward a peaceful and joyful inner place!
