Birth support

I provide an alternative package of care for women looking to reclaim birth as a rite of passage. Women looking to take control of their journey to birth their baby and rebirth themselves into motherhood (for the first or subsequent times).

You may wish to be informed of your care provision, learn how to navigate the systems we have, birth outside of the system, or reclaim a physiological undisturbed birth. I will work with you through this.

You can be held, nurtured and supported to explore, plan and prepare your mind, body and soul for birthing your baby. You should be held during this sacred time in your life. The current crisis in maternity care means you are often left with unanswered questions and feeling like you are just a number, and that’s if you want to engage with the system at all.

How would it feel to enjoy your pregnancy knowing you have an experienced, confident, kind and nuturing person to hold you through your journey. To call in as and when you need to? To ask questions to, however big or small. To explore the depths of preparing to birth. To receive care which leaves you feeling loved, cared for and excited to meet your baby.

I use many modalities which I have collated over the years as a birthworker to offer an expansive service.

What can be included?

We can work through mind, learning about birth and aspects of care that are relevant to you and your situation, hypnobirthing, and mind body connections. We work through body, exploring movement, physiology, biomechanics (I am an advanced practitioner). We work to connect you to soul, we may work to release trauma, look to connect you deeply to your innate wisdom and to baby through many different practices and plants. You may need more of one and less of another.

As with all my work it is bespoke to you and I draw on all my training and experience over nearly a decade of birth work and attending births. We can also cover postpartum expectations, fourth trimester planning and feeding your baby.

Online 1 hour with me to delve in to any area or concern around planning your birth or fourth trimester. In advance I ask you send a list of areas you are interested in and questions you have, we will then get through as many as we can.

This session is followed up by a detailed email with further reading, listening or consideration.

£60 book here.

 

In person two hour sessions within 30 minutes from Biggleswade or a mutually agreeable location this is a chance to deep dive in to areas that are important for you to prepare for a positive and powerful birth.

Maybe you want to learn about freebirth, home birth, physiology, biomechanics, hypnobirthing or you are being offered a specific pathway of care which you’d like to talk through with an independent and experienced birth professional. This is the space. You will be asked to send me a list of areas in order of importance and we will cover what we can in the time.

After our session you will receive an email with further exploration, reading and practices to support you.

£120 book here.

Jess has had a huge influence on my connection with my own body and our baby. I felt incredibly in sync with our daughter from the minute I looked into her eyes and our beautiful birth experience and the confidence in my mothering abilities has been hugely influenced by Jess’s support.

Maybe there’s a sense of change coming, perhaps a birth, job change, cyclical change in your body or a need and want to connect to nature and yourself.

If you are looking for support in navigating cycles, of birth, life, nature, to start or continue your journey of radical remembering, welcome!

I’m excited for you to explore and journey.
