Hi, I am Kerry

I am a doula, hypnobirthing teacher and a birth trauma practitioner.

Birth changed me forever, it led me onto this beautiful path of supporting others in their journey through pregnancy, birth and beyond.

My passion is to support you no matter where you are on your journey; whether that is to help with antenatal education, support in birth as a doula or helping you to heal after a traumatic birth.

I believe every pregnant woman and birthing person deserves to have informed antenatal education, continuity of care and support to have the birth you want and deserve which is the foundation of all my services.

"Birth is an experience that demonstrates that life is not merely function and utility, but form and beauty"

— Christopher Largen
