About me

Hi, I’m Laura.

​

I would love to help you on your birthing journey using the knowledge and experience I've gained over the last 6 years of parenting and becoming a Mentored Birthbliss Birth Doula. 

​

Having gone through three very different pregnancies, births and postnatal periods myself, I am passionate about the incredible miracle that is growing and birthing a baby, and I want to support you to achieve contentment in your birthing experience. Setting you up for the best possible start to your life together. 

 

I have no agenda and no judgment about your decisions as a parent. I want you to do what feels right for you every step of the way, from advocating for yourself during your pregnancy, making informed, evidenced-based choices at your birth, to owning your parenting decisions.

​

Friends and family describe me as caring, loyal, and empathetic, slightly messy, (sometimes) annoyingly organised, and definitely always thinking about food! 

​

I worked for British Tennis and then Marie Curie before having my three boys. They are 5, 4, and 1, and I love being their mum, albeit I don't always love the noise levels, the mess and the lack of sleep! 

 

​I’m a practical sort of person, I am very proud of the shed I built last year in my garden, I love to sit and do colouring with my kids and I am currently taking a lot of pleasure in improving my Parkrun stats. 

​

I am also these things...

  • ABM Breastfeeding Peer Supporter 

  • Deputy Coordinator for the NCT Sutton Epsom Branch

  • A part-time Civil Servant 

  • Supporting Epsom St Helier MVP with Social Media

  • Birthrights trained 

  • Queerbox LGBTQ+ inclusive business trained

​

.... and I would love to be your doula!
