Default Trainee Doula available In Newcastle

Hi
My name is Tanya, I am a mum to four beautiful children and I am currently doing my Doula training with Optimum Birth.

I live in Newcastle NSW and would be happy to travel to the Hunter Valley or the northern end of the central Coast.

I would be happy to offer advice and support for you during your pregnancy as I understand it can be an extremely emotional time for you and your partner.

I know there are some mother's out there too, that are doing it alone and I would feel extremely honoured to assist you in your birth journey.

I'm happy to be there for you through your entire labour, or simply just when you need me. Providing hands on support or soft words of encouragement. Perhaps just a hand to hold or someone to massage and help relax you. I also think it's very important for someone to be there to help support Dad as well, as I understand it can be an anxious time for him.

I also would be right there with you for the first few weeks post partum ,providing support in whatever form you may need- whether it be advice or help with swaddling, information on lactation or feeding your baby, or simply sourcing information for you.

I am open to your idea's and support you in your decisions - I strongly believe that women have the right to a safe, comfortable and relaxed birth, wherever they choose.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Oh no- I hope you managed to have a great experience anyway?

Keep me in mind for your next baby if you decide to have any more
