My work is about creating a containers of support, reminding women of the power we hold & rebuilding our village & web of deep knowledge.

  • Doula Support

    One-to-one pregnancy, birth and postnatal support for women who value continuity, relationship and traditional wisdom alongside evidence-based care.

    This is not just about having someone there on the day. It is a slower, more personal model of support, with time to get to know you, prepare your body and mind, talk through your choices, support your partner and create a sense of steadiness before labour begins.

    Together, we may explore birth planning, emotional preparation, bodywork, biomechanics, massage, rebozo, feeding preparation, postnatal care and advocacy — so you feel informed, held and less alone as you move towards birth.

  • Massage & Bodywork Treatments

    For women who need space to pause, soften and come back to themselves.

    These treatments are not just about easing aches and tension. They are about feeling held in your body & heart, supported through life’s transitions, and given time to rest without having to explain or perform.

    Sessions may include massage, shiatsu, reflexology, womb or breast massage, rebozo work, herbal rituals, closing-the-bones-style wrapping, or gentle bodywork — depending on what you need.

  • Couples Birth Preparation

    For couples who want to feel calmer, more prepared and more connected before birth.

    This class is not just about learning the stages of labour. It is about understanding what helps birth unfold, how your partner can support you, how to navigate choices, and how to feel more confident if things change.

    You’ll learn practical tools for labour, birth and the early days with your baby — including breathing, movement, comfort measures, partner support and informed decision-making.

    Private birth preparation from £225

  • Birth Trauma Support

    For women who are carrying difficult feelings after birth, pregnancy loss, medical treatment, or a previous experience that still feels unresolved.

    This support is not about forcing you to relive every detail. It is about creating a safe, steady space to gently process what happened, calm your nervous system, and begin to feel more like yourself again.

    Sessions may include the 3-Step Rewind process, birth art, relaxation, grounding practices and space to make sense of your story at your own pace.

  • Pregnancy Retreats

    For women who are looking for a calmer, deeper way to prepare for birth.

    Pregnancy retreats offer time to pause, breathe, move, learn and connect — with practical birth preparation woven together with relaxation, body awareness, emotional support and space to reflect on the transition into motherhood.

    You’ll leave with tools for labour, a stronger connection to your body and baby, and the feeling of having been properly held and prepared.

About Emma

Person wearing a green knit hat in a forest

My journey into this work began 18 years ago, when I had my first baby with the support of an independent midwife — a wise woman who helped me understand birth as powerful, instinctive, deeply human and deeply spiritual.

Her steady, continuous presence throughout my pregnancy was far more than information, or screening for health issues. She gave me the kind of holding that allowed me to step into a stronger, more confident version of myself — not just as a mother, but as a woman.

Since then, I have spent nearly two decades walking this winding path: learning, questioning, deepening my practice, and supporting women through pregnancy, birth, feeding, loss, postnatal recovery and the emotional layers of motherhood

Alongside degree-level study in antenatal education, years of teaching with the National Childbirth Trust, and training in babywearing, pregnancy and postnatal yoga, self-hypnosis, doula support, bodywork and birth trauma support, my work is rooted in something simple:

helping women feel informed, held and able to trust themselves as they move through pregnancy, birth and beyond.
