What is a doula, and why do I need one?
The word “doula” comes from a Greek word meaning “woman’s servant”.
Doulas are trained, non-medical professionals who provide continuous physical, emotional, and informational support to women before, during and after childbirth, to facilitate the best possible birth experience.
A doula’s main role is to encourage self-confidence in women who are giving birth by supporting her and her partner with information, practical tools and emotional care during pregnancy, labour, birth and the post-partum period. A doula will support a woman in whatever way empowers her to have the best possible experience she can. This support is provided unconditionally and without bias and has the best interests of the mother in mind at all times.
How I support you as your doula will be unique to you and each package is customised to suit your specific needs and the outcomes that you wish for. Birth is such an unpredictable and ever-changing landscape and no-one can ever know what to expect. My focus is on preparing you for all eventualities and for you to feel in control and confident every step of the way. For more information on the types of support I can offer you please see the following link to my Blog Post on this topic.
Medical studies have shown that women with supportive labour companions have better outcomes, shorter labours and need less pain medication than women who labour alone.
About Me
I am a proud, earth loving Mumma to three beautiful grown-up children, all born at home. I am a fully certified birth and post-partum doula, I am the owner and developer of Serene Cream Natural Body Products and I have a keen interest in all things aromatherapy, reiki, massage and healing and many other aspects of natural health. I am currently training with the Australian Breastfeeding Association as a breastfeeding counsellor.
I am deeply passionate about bringing children into the world in the gentlest way possible and strongly believe that how our babies experience their birth and their early days and weeks can have a huge impact on their future and their view of the world. It is an equally profound experience for the birthing woman and I hope to support and nurture each woman to have the most empowering birthing experience possible.
If this resonates with you at all, please reach out, I would love to meet you for a chat about all things babies and birth and to discover how I can best support you and your family.

What Our Mothers Say
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Debbie to birth my first baby.
I felt the overall experience was a calm, controlled and loving one. The amount of knowledge Debbie had and information given was incredible, it really helped me to know exactly what birthing plan I wanted and to go ahead confidently and unapologetically!
Debbie’s homeopathic remedies, home cooked meals and baby tips made my journey from pregnancy to motherhood a memorable one.
Debbie was extremely caring and helpful and positive in the lead up to and after the birth. Although we couldn’t use our birth plan on the day, I felt relaxed and calm about my first birthing experience. It was super helpful to have someone to discuss my concerns with and work through ideas to relax my mind. The whole experience was amazing. I would definitely recommend Debbie’s services.
I hired Debbie as my postpartum doula for my second baby. Debbie slotted gently into our postpartum world and became an invaluable part of it. I loved her baby massage oil blend, her massage, food and her DELICIOUS lactation cookies that I had to hide from my husband! Thank you so much, Debbie, for easing our transition into a contented family of four!
