a sacred rite of passage for both Mama and Baby
I create a sanctuary of intuitive, kind, and empowering support, resourcing you to trust in yourself, claim your sovereignty, and surrender to the power of birth.
In peace and unconditional love, I show up humbly to meet the unique journey of each individual. I am unafraid to walk alongside you as you journey to your depths, and I will never take your power away.
Our capacity to connect to our sensual nature, know what our body is communicating, and feel worthy and safe to trust and advocate for this wisdom, affects our whole life, especially the birth of our babies. My strengths lie in empowering these skills leading up to your sovereign and sacred birth.
"Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is about making mothers — strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength." - Ina May Gaskin
“Olivia supported me for my third pregnancy. The intention was to have a home birth- a first for me. Olivia was always fully present, and would create a safe environment to best support my needs that day. With her gentle guidance, utmost care, and respect for my unborn baby and I, I was able to deeply tune in and alchemise what fears I held on to from previous births and an unfamiliar endeavour I was yet to see.
We worked with affirmations, ritual, meditation, somatic healing, reiki, sister circles and deep listening. Olivia’s great respect for the wisdom held in a woman’s body and womb space helped to empower me and build the foundations to create a beautiful space for home birthing my son. A memory I can cherish and teachings I can pass down to my daughters.
Olivia will always be in my heart, and I highly recommend her when it comes to holding space, especially supporting women. Her well educated and open minded support should be something all women get to experience'“

“Olivia is an incredible doula who provides very holistic care. She really embodies the philosophy that birth can be affected by so much more than what the medical model of care can offer and creates a safe space to work through any challenges, emotionally and spiritually.
She provides non-judgemental advice and wisdom, providing me with so many skills and practices that are useful in everyday life, including communication skills and nervous-system regulation exercises. Olivia included my partner and daughter in some sessions and helped strengthen our family dynamics whilst preparing for the birth of our newest family member.
She is kind, thoughtful, genuine and empowering and has a crazy gift of being able to understand exactly how I’m feeling and articulate it in a way that is so validating. I never thought I would need the services of a doula as I am a midwife myself and had already birthed well before, but when I met Olivia I was drawn to learn more and gained so much from our sessions. I could not recommend her enough”

FAQs
What is a doula?
A doula or birth keeper is someone who provides emotional and spiritual support during pregnancy, birth, as well as postpartum. As a doula I ensure consistent, holistic, mother-centered care, that is deeply present with you every step of the way.
Is a doula the same as a midwife?
A midwife is medically trained and legally obliged to offer and provide clinical assessments required by the midwifery council. A doula does not provide medical advice or give clinical assessments. A doula is privately hired to offer personalised and consistent support, something which the current medical paradigm often does not have time or training to provide.
What does support from a doula look like?
Every doula is unique. Support from me is present, personalised, and often looks like guidance for inner work, self care, ritual, physiological birth education, nervous system regulation practices, guided visualisation practices, affirmation work, relationship support and communication support. All with the intention to empower you to trust your body, your baby, and birth. This can be online or in person.
