“The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed but the mother, never.“

- Osho

Why you need a Doula

Most of us have been there - the uncertainty of labour, the overwhelm of information and advice - and also the days and weeks after giving birth when our life was turned upside down in ways no one could really prepare us for. After all, newborn babies do not come with a manual.

Birth is a big adventure, a unique experience that changes us as individuals and I think that it is vital for that experience to be a positive one. As your Doula I will support you to get the most positive birth experience possible and gently help your family grow into your new role as a mother and parent.

  • Hanna is an amazing doula and we are so grateful to have her support to our 2nd baby. She is professional and knowledgeable. I have recommended Hanna to other friends too as she is so supportive and cannot imagine how much harder the first few weeks after labour would have been without her.

  • “Hanna has special magic to calm my baby and I can always have a good sleep. She also helped to clear all my questions and is always willing to share her experience with me, which is very ensuring even for 2nd time mum like me.”

  • “Hanna was the perfect balance of encouraging and supportive without being pushy. After some sleepless nights, when Hanna arrived, we would hand her Poppy and go back to sleep for a couple of hours - the perfect recharge!

  • “Hanna was wonderful, she shared knowledge as a doula and a mother. She shared knowledge as required rather than bombarding me with advice which I really appreciated as a new mother.”
