After 20 years as a midwife, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing birth in many forms — powerful, complex, transformative, quiet, and everything in between. Those years gave me a deep respect for women, for physiology, and for the profound responsibility of supporting families at one of the most important moments of their lives.
As I step away from the professional register and move into my next chapter as a doula, I carry all of that experience with me.
Being present at birth for two decades has given me a unique perspective. I understand the clinical environment, the language of maternity care, and the realities of modern birth settings. But just as importantly, I understand how vital it is for women to feel heard, respected, and supported throughout their journey.
My role now is not clinical — it is relational. As a doula, I offer continuous support, calm presence, informed guidance, and advocacy for women and their families. The years I spent as a midwife allow me to bridge worlds: understanding the system while keeping the woman firmly at the centre of her own birth experience.
Experience in birth work isn’t something that disappears when a role changes. It evolves, deepens, and continues to serve the women we walk alongside.
I feel incredibly grateful to continue this work in a way that aligns with my values and keeps women, trust, and respectful support at the heart of birth. 🤍
