the birth keeper

Offering my bespoke care for your empowered home birth in London & Sussex

As your birth keeper, I am here to make you feel safe, informed, respected and comfortable

Although we live in a modern age I believe the role of the birth keeper is as vital as ever for all women as they transition into motherhood.

The role can be seen throughout history offering experience and loving support for women as they transition from pregnancy, birth and beyond.

The holistic support and guidance I offer during this exiting and precious time of life will empower and lovingly hold you. I am here to inform and support you in making conscious choices, guiding you in planning your birth wishes and ensuring your birth will happen in the most empowered way possible. 

I will be here to lovingly support and hold you through this transition into mothering your new baby, whilst helping you to prepare and welcome your new born to your family so you can drink in this precious time as a new mother.

I offer bespoke birth and postnatal packages that provide you and your partner with all the loving care and guidance for your journey into family life. I have two packages on my website however many clients add on additional antenatal and postpartum sessions to meet their needs.

I believe in true personalised care, I have limited availability per year, I do not accept more than two clients per month. I can also offer exclusive birth care - where I take on no other clients at all during your due month (from 38 weeks - 42 weeks) this care can be offered for an additional charge as I would decline other clients, please ask me for this bespoke support,

I live between West London and Sussex, I cover all areas of London, Sussex and parts of Kent and Surrey, If you are live outside this area but would like my support please contact me as I do sometimes travel outside this area when a connection between myself and a women feels right, I am an experience birth keeper attending well over 200 births and supported some high profile clients. .
