The Yoga Midwife - Birth Coach, Doula & Yoga for Mums

Pregnancy & birth should be beautiful life experiences. I provide holistic yoga, prenatal & postnatal care and doula services.

My training at University of West London and at The Farm Midwifery Centre in Tennessee has given me a passion for providing gold standard care. There's always more to learn and I have enjoyed learning about complementary therapies. I offer pregnancy reflexology, rebozo techniques, breathing and relaxation exercises, pregnancy wat-su (water shiatsu) and pregnancy & postnatal yoga!

🥰 Every review means so much to me and this one really made me smile 🥰

Creating a space where you feel supported and listened to, and confident in your changing body is exactly what I hope every woman experiences when she comes to class ⭐️

Thank you so much for your kind words and for trusting me to be a part of your pregnancy journey 💜

If you’re looking for a prenatal yoga class where every session is adapted to you, I’d love to welcome you.

🌿 One of the quieter parts of being a doula is preparing for births that I may never attend.

This morning I had a lovely chat with one of my colleague’s clients. I’ll be on standby as her backup doula while my colleague is away, so we spent some time getting to know each other, talking through her hopes for birth, and making sure that if our paths do cross on the big day, I’ll already be a familiar face.

Birth doesn’t always go to plan, and having a trusted backup means families can still feel supported, informed, and cared for if circumstances change.

It takes teamwork behind the scenes, and I’m always grateful to work alongside wonderful local birth professionals to make that possible.

🧘🏽‍♀️ Back in 2016 I completed my prenatal yoga teacher training.

At the time I had been practising as an independent midwife for 2 years and wanted to expand my offerings to serve more of the pregnant community. I went from teaching my first class to teaching at 4 studios across London, to putting together my signature workshops to then learning how to teach online when the world closed its doors during the covid pandemic.

I loved teaching a class whilst I was in early labour and then using my yoga techniques to help me during the intense moments during my own home birth.

It was a privilege when receiving photos of their newborns along with messages saying how helpful yoga was in their birth experience. I am so honoured to share a small part of their motherhood journey 💜

Ten years later, that same passion has brought me to Portugal, where I continue supporting women through prenatal yoga and now as a doula too. Even this morning I received a gorgeous photo from a mama who wanted some support to help turn her breech baby head down. 🙃

On International Yoga Day, I’m feeling especially grateful for every woman, and baby who has stepped onto a mat with me over the last 10 years.

Thank you for being part of this journey ✨

The past week have been full in the most intense, beautiful way… 🌟 3 births in 3 days 🌟

Being called into that space again and again, holding families as they meet their babies, is part of what I love about my work.
It reminds me how much steadiness, presence, and continuity really matter in those moments — having someone there who already knows you, your story, your preferences… it changes how it all feels.

After a few very full days, I’m now stepping out of the on-call rhythm for a little while to rest and reset.

If you’re thinking ahead and wondering about birth support, here’s where things are currently sitting:

📅 April — full May — off-call June — full July — 2 spaces available August — off-call September — 1 space available October — 2 spaces available

I tend to work quite closely with a small number of clients at a time so I can offer that deeper level of support throughout pregnancy, birth, and the early days after.

📞 If that’s something you’re looking for, it’s always worth reaching out early to explore what it could look like for you.

Little moments of stillness… in between the on-call life 💜

☀️ Eggs drying in the sun�A child running free on verdant grass�And me, quietly holding space for what’s coming next.

📞 The next couple of months will be full.�I’m on call for several births…�ready to leave at any moment, day or night

✨ This work asks for flexibility, presence, and deep trust in the unknown �And it’s exactly why I limit the number of women I support.

Because when your baby is ready,�you deserve someone who can truly be there 🤗

If you’re pregnant and thinking about your birth, now is the time to reach out.�We can talk through what support could look like for you.

💠 What feels unfamiliar at first… starts to feel natural with time.

This is the same flow we’re working with in class right now.�Each week, you build on it. You soften into it. You trust your body a little more.

Becoming a mum isn’t about getting it “right” — it’s about learning how to listen, adjust, and move with confidence.

This is where that begins 💜

If you want to feel more prepared, more connected, and more at ease in your body… come join us.

✨ You’re ‘low risk’… but that doesn’t mean birth will feel calm or in control.

I was reminded of this recently when someone shared their story. They had chosen their care provider carefully, hoping for a gentle, supported experience… but instead they felt unheard, overlooked, and unsupported.

I hear this often, even when everything looks “perfect on paper,” birth can feel overwhelming. Feeling unsupported or out of control doesn’t mean you’re doing something wrong — it’s not a reflection of you, it’s a reflection of the system around you.

🌟 That’s why I focus on helping first-time mums feel seen, informed, and empowered. Through prenatal yoga, birth prep guidance, and doula support, you can enter birth feeling confident and held — no matter your risk status.

Birth isn’t about being perfect or following a checklist. It’s about being supported, trusting your body, and knowing you’re not alone.

🤗 If you’re worried about feeling unsupported in birth, I can help you navigate it safely and confidently. Book a call with me, let’s have a chat (link in bio).

This is why I do what I do.

This client underwent a private Birth Prep Course with me in the lead up to the birth of her baby girl. One of the topics on the course was Infant Feeding and we covered they physiology and the common hurdles and how to overcome them.

🤱🏻 Breastfeeding isn’t always straightforward in those first days. A few small tweaks, the right support, and things can shift so quickly.

💪🏼 When a mum feels confident, baby feels it too. Feeding becomes calmer, easier, more connected.

✨ This is something we go into during my private birth prep sessions, so you’re not left figuring it out when you’re tired and in it.

➡️ If you want to feel more prepared and supported going into birth and those early days, you can message me anytime 💌

✨ Birth is not just something that happens to you. It’s something you can prepare for, understand, and move through with confidence.

This 2.5 hour Birth Preparation Workshop is designed to help you feel more ready for the real experience of labour. Not just the theory, but the practical side of birth.

Together we’ll explore:
• simple yoga movements that support labour
• breathing techniques that help you stay calm and focused
• ways your partner can support you physically and emotionally
• positions and tools that make labour easier to work with

You’ll leave with skills you can actually use when the day comes, and a clearer understanding of what your body is doing during birth.

This is a small, intimate workshop so there’s plenty of space for questions and practice.

✨ Saturday 24th January
🕙 10:00 – 12:30
📍 Vilamoura, Algarve
💶 €50 (includes your birth partner)

Spaces are limited to 5 couples and the workshop is coming up soon. If you’re in your third trimester and want to approach birth feeling prepared rather than unsure, this is for you.

💜 When you understand your body, birth feels very different.
