I signed up with Charlotte (Doula in a pocket service) during my second trimester and it was without a doubt the best decision I made during my pregnancy! She was always on hand with evidence based advice and no question was ever too big or too small!

A little note from your virtual Birth Doula..

You are here because you know you want and deserve more support in pregnancy and birth than you are currently getting.


Your instincts are right! 


Evidence has shown that continuity of care (being supported by the same person in pregnancy and birth) improves both the outcomes (for you and the baby) and the overall experience.
Birth Doula support has been associated with a higher chance of spontaneous vaginal birth and a positive birthing experience.


If an in-person birth doula doesn't feel right or isn't possible for you right now, virtual doula support has been shown to be as effective.


Virtual birth doula support is great if you are too busy to attend in-person appointments, have other children or simply prefer to communicate virtually. 

 
You are in the right place!

​

"I hugely recommend Charlotte as a ‘doula in your pocket’ and my only regret is I wish I had met her for my first pregnancy!"
