Hi, Thank you for visiting. My name is Celia, and I am a well being support doula providing emotional, physical, and informational support throughout your pregnancy, birth, and beyond. I live in Epping with my husband and three children.

The choice to pursue a career as a doula was inspired by my own positive birthing experiences, and I have an innate longing to help other women in achieving a positive birth and postnatal journey through tailored preparation, education, informed decision-making, empowerment, and advocacy.

I have nine years of experience of working with families with practical expertise spanning all areas, including homebirths, labour wards, birthing units, antenatal clinics, postnatal units, maternity day units, triage, and operating theatres. I possess a deep understanding of the maternity system, its jargon, and processes. My current role in the Maternity Voices Partnership for Princess Alexandra Hospital in Harlow keeps me informed about maternity news and enables me to advocate for service improvements. Having also worked in Human Resources Management for the NHS, I am acutely aware of the pressures on NHS staff and services. My goal is to provide continuity of care where it is currently lacking. My hands-on experience has empowered me to guide my own births positively, and I wish to help you do the same.

My practical experience was invaluable, becoming a mother taught me the importance of the fourth trimester. I understand now that postpartum support and preparation are crucial for a healthy recovery, regaining strength, bonding with your baby, and supporting overall mental health and the transition into parenthood. As modern lifestyles have shifted away from close-knit family networks, the dynamics of recovery support have changed. I offer invaluable support and objective advice to help you navigate this transition.

Please explore my website and the services I offer. If you have any questions, feel free to call me,send a text, email, I’m always eager to assist.

Best Wishes,

Celia x
