About Me

My photo
Rugby, Warwickshire, United Kingdom
I am a mother of five children, four daughters all born in hospital (two now grown up!) and my son, born at home. One thing I know is that I would have had much more positive birth experiences if I had been well informed and well supported. Many women are feeling the same way and are seeking out the extra care a Doula can give them. I have been a Birth and Postnatal Doula for several years now, and am also a Lamaze Childbirth Educator providing 1-1 classes in antenatal preparation and baby care. I have special classes to help parents prepare for twins, homebirth, waterbirth, and parenting a new baby/babies. I am also a qualified antenatal teacher with the NCT and facilitate group classes in the Rugby/Coventry area. As a single mother I have an affinity with the special challenges of one parent families, or families where one partner is unavailable much of the time to offer support.

Welcome Baby Lyra Loveday!!!

On Sunday 19th of February I had the honour of witnessing Baby Lyra's birth. Her mum had had an elective Caesarian section birth for her first baby, and chose to have a VBAC (vaginal birth after caesarian) this time.
after waters breaking at 36 weeks (on holiday!) Clare went into labour naturally and birthed her beautiful daughter completely naturally! Well done and huge congratulations Clare and Mark, you really were brilliant and should be so, so proud of yourselves! you did it!!!!

Welcome to the world Beautiful Baby Lyra, and congratulations proud parents Clare amd Mark, and big brother Xander!! thank you for giving me the honour of being your Doula :D xxxxxxxxxx
