bristol birth support
5 Experienced Doulas collaborating to
support families in and around Bristol
during pregnancy, birth and early family life.
We believe in your body, your baby and your birth
We support families to feel good in their pregnancies, birthing and postpartum recovery. We are passionate in our work to uphold the wishes and amplify the voices of women and their partners, to be empowered while growing their families.
​
Between us we have well over 40 years experience working as professional doulas., as well as our own journeys as mothers. Collectively we have supported a wide range of needs and situations: From undisturbed birth at home, to birth requiring more medical support, families with challenging previous experiences, to those birthing for the first time.
When specialist guidance and extra resources might be needed to enable empowered decision making along the way, we are here to ensure you are well informed, and well supported both physically and emotionally, to feel strong, heard and respected, to may make decisions that feel right for you. We work in all birth places, and work closely with local trusts to provide best care and collaborative support, so that families can navigate maternity services with confidence. We look forward to hearing from you to find out more about what you might need in your pregnancy, birthing and early days as parents.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

I attended Daniella’s hypnobirthing course and have found it invaluable in helping me to feel prepared and empowered for birth. Daniella gave us comprehensive but digestible info on the process of birth, and offered a variety of tools to help us make empowered and informed decisions in our birth plans as well as techniques to manage pain/ sensations.

She was absolutely incredible in supporting us through a fairly challenging journey. She was a godsend when labour became challenging and worked brilliantly with the doctor when our baby got stuck. It was Tortie who suggested trying different positions at the end to get our boy out naturally, which saved me needing any intervention.
