ABOUT ME
Hi I’m Rehana
Welcome
About Me
I believe you are unique, and your birth will be just as unique. I aim to put you at the heart of the service I offer. I provide information, support, compassion and care for you, during pregnancy, the birth, and postnatally when you have brought baby home.
I can attend Antenatal appointments with you, and help you navigate the Health Care system. Advocating for you, if you want me to. I can help you prepare for a positive birth, preparing both mind and body for the birth. I can also provide support in the early days after you and baby go home.
I have a heart for helping people, and am passionate about helping, support pregnant women prepare for birth, and life afterwards, during the transition to becoming mums, in those early sleep deprived months when you have brought baby home, as your postnatal doula.
Having experienced three different births, and then the postnatal periods after each one, I learnt so much from each one.
Planning, preparation and support are key, during this life changing, and at times challenging phase in life.
Our stressed, traumatised, overworked Midwives, and Health Care Professional simply don’t have the time, despite their best intentions to look after the emotional and wellbeing side of things. In a broken NHS system – this is the GAP, a doula fills – with loving, compassionate care.
As a Birth, and Postnatal Doula, I am uniquely placed to be there 100% for YOU, providing ‘Continuity of Care’. Why not arrange a no-cost initial chat to discuss what you may need.
I can help you : from early pregnancy, at the birth, and postnatally to get you settled back home, and into your new life.
