MY SERVICES
BIRTH SUPPORT
Complete, continuous care that supports you from the moment you book me, through birth, and into your early postpartum transition.
Standard birth package includes:
A free chemistry call where we can get to know one another and discuss your needs.
Two antenatal visits (2 hours each) where we will discuss your birth preferences, birth plan and make sure you feel confident, prepared and informed.
A dedicated WhatsApp group between you, your partner and myself where we can chat all things pregnancy and birth-related.
Full access to all my evidence-based resources and contacts.
On-call for your birth between 38-42+ weeks of pregnancy.
Continuous emotional and physical support throughout your labour. I will be there from the moment you call me up until a maximum of 3 hours after your baby has safely arrived.
One postnatal visit to your home within the first 2 weeks after birth.
Continued WhatsApp support up until 6 weeks postpartum.
If there is time, we can also have one or two casual meet-ups, perhaps a coffee date or a walk in the park!
I’m always happy to personalise the package if your family’s needs look a little different.
POSTNATAL SUPPORT
The postnatal care I provide is fully personalised and client-led with a gentle focus on ‘mothering the mother’ as you find your footing in early parenthood.
What this can look like depending on your needs and requirements:
Emotional support and a space for you and your partner to talk through your birth and anything else that might be coming up as you navigate this new chapter!
Newborn care guidance (feeding, soothing, bathing etc.)
Support with older siblings so you can have uninterrupted time with your newborn.
Light household duties such as emptying the dishwasher, light tidying, laundry, food shopping, helping prepare a light lunch/snacks.
Look after baby while you rest, shower or take time for your own self-care.
Signposting to evidence-based resources, local professionals and support groups.
Provide company if partner has gone back to work.
Evening/overnight support available on special request. Please contact me for further details.
Minimum 3 hours per visit.
For families outside my local area, additional travel costs may be reflected in the rate.

“We are always very happy to see Ella! She has a great instinct for what would be helpful, is good company and a great cook. In the post-partum haze her visits always leave me feeling less stressed and more regulated, and usually with a tidier house and a stocked fridge.”
