Traditional cultures value the importance of nurturing and investing in the mother. They see postpartum as a time to heal and rest. They understand that a mothers need to be nurtured is just as important as the babies, after all we cannot fill from an empty cup..
“In India, the new mother often returns to her parents’ home with her newborn for up to three months of focused care. There, many pairs of hands are on call throughout the day. The women of the family cook soft and nurturing foods, boil fresh milk three times in a row to break down its proteins, and stir in melted ghee (clarified butter) and special spices, so it becomes easy to digest and restores the mothers depleted state. These loving hands also hold the baby whenever mom needs a break.”

Hi, I’m Samantha…
I would be honoured to work with you and your family, supporting and nurturing you on this magical journey.
My dream is to create a world in which a mother’s voice is heard and her needs are met. Women will have all the information they need to make an informed decision, they will have the birth of their dreams and a village to nurture them in their postpartum as they nurture their babies.
As a doula my goal is to help all women, regardless of their background, achieve the birth they want, ensuring that they feel emotionally and physically supported, empowered and strong from pregnancy through to postpartum.
I’d love to connect and discuss how I can help you thrive on your journey into motherhood, from pregnancy through to postpartum.
“I felt so comfortable and confident having you as my support person and I was able to have a positive and healing birth. You knew my weaknesses and fears from my first birth and helped guide me through them.”
