Intuitive and emotionally grounded doula support,
and birth preparation. 

I offer gentle care and advocacy at life's thresholds; Birth, death and the tender spaces in between. 

I support people to meet profound transitions with presence, trust and embodied awareness. Whether preparing for labour and birth, being held through early parenthood or supported at the end of life, my work centres on being rather than doing, creating safety in the body, steadiness in the nervous system, and space to listen inward.  

I bring together intuitive and reflective practices alongside space to explore your needs, wishes and values and process information, so that each experience is met with dignity, connection, and confident decision making. 

Birth is not something you can think your way through. 

It’s something you breathe, feel and move through with your whole body and soul.

If you’re here, you may already sense that preparing for birth is about more than learning information or creating the perfect birth plan. You may be longing to feel safe in your body, steady in your nervous system, and deeply connected to yourself, your baby and your partner. You may have experienced a previous birth, or moments in this pregnancy where you felt unsafe, unsupported or disrespected and are searching for a gentle and healing path forwards.

I offer doula support and embodied birth preparation that centres feelings over fear, trust over technique, integration over information.

My Approach

Much of modern antenatal education focuses on gaining information, such as stages of labour, options, decisions and plans, and while this information is absolutely essential, it doesn’t always translate into confidence or calm when labour becomes intense, or when plans have to change. 

My work as a doula supports you to integrate this learning into your body and nervous system, so that when birth unfolds, you don’t need to remember what to do, your body already knows. My presence in the birth room is an invitation to center yourself in your experience, to stay present and grounded through intensity, to ask for what you need, and to never lose sight of your power. 

How This Feels:

Women I support often share that they feel:

More grounded and at home in their bodies

Less overwhelmed by conflicting birth information

More connected to their intuition and inner guidance

More able to meet intensity with steadiness and trust

Emotionally and mentally prepared for birth

Partners often feel clearer in their role, more regulated themselves, and more confident in offering useful and calming support during labour and birth.

 

Who This Is For:

You see birth as a profound physical, emotional and spiritual transition, which should be treated with respect and reverence. 

You’re drawn to holistic, embodied or spiritual approaches to birth (and life!)

You want to feel truly prepared rather than simply well-informed

You value emotional safety, depth and connection

You’re open to breath work, body-based practices and intuitive exploration, even if you have little or no experience of these things.  

 

Ways to Work Together 

Full doula support throughout pregnancy, birth and early postpartum.

Intuitive and body based birth preparation sessions, in person or online.

Mother blessing ceremonies and celebrations.

 Gentle, relaxing pregnancy group 'The Great Birth Club'. 

Postnatal integration and Closing the Bones rituals

Each offering is rooted in presence, connection and respect for your whole self, and your body’s innate wisdom.

 

If you are preparing for birth, I am here to offer you a gentle Invitation:

You don’t need to fix yourself.

You don’t need to master birth.

You already carry deep wisdom within you.

My role is to help you slow down, listen inward, and prepare for birth in a way that feels grounded, connected and true to you.

Birth Doula

"Bonnie was highly recommended to me from my sister who also had Bonnie as her doula. I’m a first time mum and I was anxious and scared about my journey ahead. Even in a difficult situation I felt strong, I knew what I wanted in my labour, had the courage to speak up knowing Bonnie & my partner were by my side.  Not only did she provide knowledge but also love and care like I knew her for years prior. We brought our beautiful daughter into the world as peacefully as possible"

Birth Doula

Bonnie is an incredible doula and wonderful person to have by your side through pregnancy and birth. She helped us navigate antenatal challenges with information to make decisions right for me and my baby, with caring words and confidence at all the right moments. Bonnie was calm and reassuring, has a great sense of humour, and was always led by what I needed which absolutely helped create a beautiful home birth experience with memories that will last a life time.

Postnatal Doula

I was fortunate enough to have Bonnie as my postnatal doula after the birth of my little girl, as well as to have some very helpful conversations with Bonnie during my pregnancy. From the moment I met her I knew she was the doula for me. She has a warmth and air of calm about her that put me at ease instantly. She brought delicious food, did  jobs about the house, supported me on a challenging feeding journey and held space for me during my transition to motherhood.

Birth Doula

We reached out to Bonnie after a previous difficult birth . Bonnie helped us to prepare, and create a thorough birth plan to avoid another traumatic birth. Nothing was too much trouble and there was no judgement on any of our wishes. With the birth prep, and hypnobirthing we felt better prepared to bring our third son into the world and I felt relaxed and calm leading up to the birth. Having Bonnie at the birth gave me and my husband reassurance that we would be listened to and our wishes acknowledged. As a result we had a beautiful healing birth and having Bonnie on our journey was the best decision we made.

Birth Doula

We knew we wanted to book Bonnie with the aim of having a more positive birth experience this time around. Bonnie made sure I went into labour feeling prepared, was a fountain of knowledge when having medical team discussions (baby was late and we were discussing plans) and supported us to have the most AMAZING birth - where I was in control and able to encourage my body to do its thing! We really couldn’t have asked for any more.

Birth Prep

My wife and I recently completed a hypnobirthing course with Bonnie. I went into this with a strong desire to support my wife but also feeling somewhat cynical because of the name. Bonnie very quickly put me at ease and alleviated fears of this being "hippy woo woo"! She is highly knowledgeable and has a warm and calming manne. She clearly explained the facts of labour, including the hormones that drive each stage, and what I can do as the birth partner to support my wife. We have all the tools and knowledge we need to create our birth plan.
