Find More About Me

Hi, I'm Ines

Why Work With Me

My approach is practical and uncomplicated whenever possible. I am intuitive and take a holistic view of each family, adapting my support to your unique needs. With a background in nursing and a strong focus on emotional wellbeing, I offer steady, reassuring support before, during and after birth.

I also believe the small things matter. Acts of service are how I show care, whether that is preparing a meal, creating a calm space at home, or simply being fully present when you need reassurance.

What a Doula is

• A doula is a trained professional who provides continuity of care during pregnancy, labour, and after the baby arrives. • Doulas offer emotional and physical support, along with balanced, evidence-based information, throughout every stage of the journey. These stages include: • Pregnancy and birth, postnatal period, overnight care and antenatal preparation. • It’s important to find a doula you feel connected to, comfortable with, and able to trust. • Before choosing a doula, make sure they’re the right fit for you and your family. Take your time, ask questions, and allow space for a genuine connection. And remember that not every pot fits every lid.

What a Doula isn't

Doulas DO NOT: • Conduct medical procedures or provide medical care. However, they may guide you to appropriate healthcare providers when medical concerns arise. • Diagnose conditions or offer medical advice. • Make decisions on behalf of you or your partner. • Act as mediators during medical consultations. While they support you in expressing your preferences, they do not speak on your behalf. • Replace medical professionals. Doulas work alongside your healthcare team, not in place of them. • Replace counselling or therapy services.

The researchers found that overall, continuous support during birth leads to a:

25%

Decrease in the risk of Cesarean; the largest effect was seen with a doula (39% decrease)

15%

Increase in the likelihood of a spontaneous vaginal birth; the largest effect was seen with a doula (15% increase)

10%

Decrease in the use of any medications for pain relief; the type of person providing continuous support did not make a difference

31%

Lower chance of an unsatisfying birth experience, improved with continuous support from a doula or a trusted person, but not from hospital staff

''I had a wonderful experience with these prenatal classes. Inês was absolutely brilliant—so supportive, incredibly knowledgeable, and a real pleasure to learn from. She explained everything clearly and always made me feel comfortable asking questions, which really helped build confidence. Her fantastic sense of humour is one of her most positive traits and made the sessions feel relaxed, enjoyable, and never overwhelming...''
