about me
For as long as I can remember, I dreamed of working within the birthing world - even though it took me two decades to make that dream a reality.
Originally from Sweden, with a stint in France, I now call London home.
I live in East London with my partner, our two children, and our furry friend, Margaret Scratcher.
I’ve always been passionate about birth and matrescence. After briefly dipping my toes in birthwork, working in a midwife led unit, life took me onto a different path. I ended up working in fashion and talent management for many years - but the birth world remained a quiet but constant presence in the back of my mind. It wasn’t until I had my second child that I felt ready to finally explore making this work a reality.
My own experiences of two very different births shaped not only my journey into motherhood, but also my desire to support others through theirs. I’m particularly passionate about supporting those considering VBAC, homebirth, and those navigating birth after trauma.
I believe our experience of birth can shape who we become.
Feeling respected, informed, and heard can have a profound impact - not only on the postnatal period, but on our wider lives and our relationship with our baby.
Accessible maternity care and birth rights are deeply important to me. I believe everyone deserves the same standard of care, regardless of background or circumstance. I work in a person-centred way and am a strong advocate for informed choice.
The transition into parenthood is not linear, and it looks different for each of us. My role is to support you in feeling confident, informed, and held - and to advocate for your wishes, whatever twists and turns your journey may take.
Training and qualifications
Over time I have trained and practised in ways that support families with a gentle, evidence-informed approach.
I am a full spectrum birth and postnatal doula, and trained with Side by Side Doula.
Alongside my private birth work, I volunteer with Doulas Without Borders - a charity providing accessible, grassroots support to women and birthing people experiencing multiple disadvantage and financial hardship, and in the past I also volunteered with the Bridge Birth Project at Homerton Hospital.
I am a mentored birth and postnatal doula, a member of Doula UK, and hold an enhanced DBS certificate. I am fully insured. Here you’ll find my Doula UK profile.
I am also a Carrot-approved doula. Carrot Fertility enables access to doula care through employee benefits.
