Emily

I live and work in beautiful North Cumbria, and have three (big!) children. I support families all over Cumbria, Northumbria, the Borders and north Lancashire.

I have been teaching pre and postnatal yoga for a decade, and spend much of my time community building, through classes, circles, and building networks with birthing women, and those women who support them. I am a qualified fertility and menstrual cycle coach and this includes fertility yoga, nutrition coaching and exercise expertise and experience.

I specialise in supporting your body to feel as strong, well and prepared as possible for birth, and healing afterwards; and I work 121 with women and families on their nutrition, lifestyles, relaxation, and connection to what is most important to them.

I have been a birth and postpartum doula for 5 years, and have supported freebirthing, hospital birthing, home birthing, and birth centre families through this time. I have great relationships with the local midwives, a strong network of other women- centred holistic businesses, and a depth of knowledge about your pregnant and birthing body which means I can support you all the way.

I support all families and all births, and love to be of service to your unique birthing journey. This is your story; I will be in the background, quietly cheering you on, and stepping in to create boundaries of protection and care for you whenever you need.

I love to care for postpartum families, and my support is deep and long lasting. Eating, resting and healing well is my forte- I will massage you, listen to you, feed you back to strength and help you to find your own intuition as a parent. I am a specialist in womb healing, bleeding, cesarean scar rehab, and pelvic health.

I can hold mother blessings, and postpartum closing ceremonies, and I work with a network of local healers to make these experiences really special.

Be in touch to ask some more, I'm looking forwards to finding out about what you need.
