Hi, I’m Ines
I help parents navigate pregnancy, birth and early parenthood with practical guidance and personalised support. Together we’ll make the journey feel manageable, informed and connected.
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

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.

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.
