Doula Support

My birth work is lovingly designed to provide the best possible support during pregnancy, birth and postpartum. If your needs feel different, I am always open to tailoring to more individualised care where perhaps extra visits, ceremony or moving a session might feel better for you. Take a look at the options and let’s find a solution that feels good.

Zephyr birth packaes

I believe in offering you the best possible doula care, which includes as standard:

  • An introductory meeting (free of charge, no commitment)

  • A minimum of three pre-natal visits before the birth (1-2 hours long)

  • Availability via email and WhatsApp.

  • Your doula is on call for labour from week 37 - week 42 of your pregnancy

  • Attending your birth (usually up to 2 hours after birth)

  • Two post-natal visits (one within 10 days, and one 5-6 weeks after giving birth to close the circle)

In my experience, building a beautiful trusting connection and relationship with your doula allows you to relax fully into the process of giving birth and becoming a parent.

I am a certified doula, and we can discuss pricing in person based on your needs. The price reflects the quality and quantity of care that I provide, the experience and the tailoring of unique support to each birthing person and partner.

If money becomes an obstacle, please know that a payment plan is always an option. If you truly cannot afford my care, but feel you need support please get in touch with me and I will happily discuss this.

Additional Services

Take a look at our additional services, which can be added to the standard package. Let’s discuss how you would like to incorporate them to create the perfect level of support for you:

Additional Pre/ post-natal visits

If you feel you would benefit from an additional pre/ post-natal visit these can be agreed up front and scheduled accordingly. If after the agreement is signed you would like to increase our number of visits, this can be discussed and scheduled according to availability. These sessions can last between 1-2 hours.

Writing your birth story

A beautiful account of your birth journey. The timeline, the details that may have been missed in the bubble of birth.

Photography

I am very happy to take pictures during the birth. I am not a professional photographer, so quality may vary according to lighting and circumstances. I have a camera that I can bring along, or a phone. Let’s discuss your needs. I will share all pictures via dropbox (and will delete them afterwards from my camera and dropbox). I would appreciate (with your consent) using pictures on my website or social media but we will always discuss this first.

Post-partum care

I offer bespoke sessions for new mothers to find their centre and reconnect with themselves once the baby arrives. A combination of talking, holding your birth story in a sacred place, ceremony and care in preparation to walk your path as a mother. Each session is unique, grounded in key practices and honouring you as a mother. Perhaps you also need more practical home support once your baby is born? This could include childcare for your other child/ children (I am a professional nanny), cooking meals and/or batch cooking, light household duties, dog walking, groceries, changing bedsheet, laundry etc. Let’s talk and see what feels helpful.

Shamanic birth services

Divination (Tarot reading)

A detailed energetic reading using tarot cards which provides gentle, profound answers and insights to guide you through any questions or feelings arising during your pregnancy. This is a remote session (I will share the reading transcript via email and discuss with you after should any questions arise), This reading is a wonderful way to offer general insight on your Now as you head into the next important 6 months of your life as a mother. This can be general, or focused on health, love or finance or answer for 3-5 specific questions.

Energetic Cleansing: Illumination

Rooted in the Ancient traditions of Andean Shamanism, Zephyr offers the relaxing, healing space to re-balance your energy body. Through working with the 7 chakras, I will re-balance your energy, removing any blockages or issues that may result from ancestral trauma, lifestyle, or personal events. This session lasts approximately 1,5 to 2 hours and is a staple in energetic cleansing and spiritual wellbeing. Most other healing cannot take place until cleansing and rebalancing has taken place. This session allows you the clear space to start from.

Birth Ceremony and Rituals

A beautiful, bespoke ceremony to welcome your child into the world, and prepare you as you embark on your journey to parenthood. This is a 2-3 hour session with you and your partner (or friend/ family member if preferred). I will guide the ceremony, either in nature or your home, and share additional daily rituals and practices with you, which you can carry with you throughout your pregnancy and beyond.

Postpartum Ceremony and Rituals

Integrate your new role as a mother and welcome your child into the world with a very special postpartum ceremony. This is a 2-3 hour session in nature or at your home. You can do this alone or with a partner/friend/ family member. We can also arrange this ceremony with a group of your female friends and family, a blessing circle of women welcoming you into Motherhood. I will guide the ceremony, and share daily rituals and practices which you can carry throughout life.

Cleansing Ceremony after a Miscarriage or Abortion

How many women go through these challenging experiences without being held or supported by those who know how? The importance of ceremony and cleansing after a difficult time with pregnancy or fertility is deeply rooted in many spiritual and cultural philosophies. Ceremony and ongoing rituals offer you the space to process, grieve and release trapped emotions. Clearing the pain of trauma from your physical, emotional, and spiritual levels helps you to walk forward with more ease, accepting of your past.
