Doula & Birth Support

Welcoming a baby into the world is a deeply personal, life-changing experience. As your doula, I’m here to walk alongside you during pregnancy, birth, and the early postnatal weeks — offering calm, continuous, and compassionate support. My role is not to tell you how to give birth, but to ensure you feel confident in your own decisions and fully supported in your journey.

I work with families across South London in homes, hospitals, and birth centres. Whether you’re preparing for your first baby, growing your family, or expecting twins or more, my care is tailored to your needs and grounded in both personal insight and professional experience.

  • Continuity of Care

    From our first meeting to the moment your baby arrives, you’ll have a familiar, trusted presence by your side.

  • Calm, Practical Support

    I provide reassurance, information, and hands-on comfort measures to help you navigate each stage of labour with confidence.

  • Informed Choices

    You’ll have access to evidence-based information so you can make decisions that align with your values and preferences.

  • Emotional Reassurance

    Birth can be intense — I’m there to listen, encourage, and hold space for your emotions every step of the way.

How we’ll work together.

We’ll start with a no-obligation video consultation. This is a chance to talk through your hopes, questions, and any concerns you have, and for us to see if we’re the right fit for one another.

Once you’ve booked, we’ll meet for dedicated antenatal sessions to explore your birth preferences, discuss comfort measures, and prepare you (and your birth partner) for the practicalities of labour and the early postnatal days.

When your labour begins, I’ll join you — whether at home, in a birth centre, or hospital — and remain by your side until after your baby is born and you’re settled. I’ll provide ongoing emotional and practical support, ensuring you feel safe, respected, and cared for throughout. Finally, I will join you for a post natal visit at home to give you some extra TLC.

  • Blown Away By Her Exceptional Care

    “I've had the pleasure of working with Leat for two births now, and I'm still blown away by her exceptional care and unwavering support. Leat’s positive energy and humor have a way of transforming what can be a stressful experience into a calm, uplifting and enjoyable one! She is supportive and caring, not only during actual labor but also the months leading up to it and beyond. Leat's expertise, compassion, and gentle guidance helped me navigate my births with confidence and ease, allowing me to come away feeling truly empowered. “

  • Knew Exactly When to Step in or Give Space.

    Having Leat by my side made a huge difference during my birth. She was calm, supportive, and knew exactly when to step in or give space. Her guidance with my breech baby really helped me feel prepared and confident. I can’t imagine going through the experience without her support, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and knowledgeable doula.

  • Totally Changed The Way We Experienced This Journey!

    Leat was truly a lifesaver! Went we went in at 34 weeks “just in case” I never imagined an emergency c-section was in the cards. I was absolutely devastated, but Leat helped me focus on the positive, supported my husband while I was in surgery, and was there to greet me when I woke up with pictures of my babies who had been whisked off to the NICU. She stayed with us until I was settled In Yoldot and helped cheer me up via WhatsApp during our 2 week NICU stay. She totally changed the way we experienced this journey!

  • Privileged To Have Had Her Support For My Second Homebirth.

    “Leat is a wonderful doula and person and I'm very privileged to have had her support for my second homebirth. From the first moment I met her, Leat showed that she was very confident in her abilities as a doula and my abilities as a pregnant, laboring and new mother. Leat paid close attention when I shared what was hard about my previous birth with a different doula, took me seriously, discussed how we can do those things differently this time and really followed through!”

  • She Was Non-judgemental, Kind and Caring

    "Leat was amazing throughout this whole process - really from pregnancy until after the baby was born she was supportive, responsive and available for anything I needed. She was non-judgemental, kind and caring which made me feel really supported throughout this process. With all the unexpected things that happened during my delivery, she was there for me - explaining what was going on, advocating for what I needed and overall checking in to see how I was doing. I could not have done it without her!."

  • She Aided Such A Beautiful Birthing Experience

    “Leat is a super star! She was amazing throughout my pregnancy and always on hand to answer questions (even I if they were repeated questions she had already answered). The cherry on the cake was the night of the birth, where she aided such a beautiful birthing experience for me. Words don't do justice to how amazing Leat was and how memorable she made my first birth!”

Immediate Post-Natal Support

My work doesn’t end once your baby is born. The early postnatal days can be joyful, exhausting, and overwhelming all at once, and having someone there who understands can make a world of difference.

As a postnatal doula, I make two post-natal visits in the first 3-5 after you bring baby home from the hospital. I can provide practical help — from supporting with feeding to preparing meals and tidying your space — as well as emotional reassurance as you navigate your new role.

I can care for your baby while you rest, offer guidance on soothing and settling, and simply be a steady presence in your home. This is a time for recovery, bonding, and adjusting as a family, and my aim is to ensure you feel cared for, confident, and never alone in the process.

I can continue support in your home for the first few weeks or months of baby’s life, learn more on my Post-Natal Support page.
