Birth Support Offerings
Holistic Birth Doula Support, what you didn’t know you needed.
As your birth doula I offer continuous mental & emotional support during the whole length of your labor & birth.
I am not a medical practitioner. I work for YOU, so YOUR mental, emotional & spiritual well-being is my main focus during your laboring experience.
I only take 1 Birth Doula client per month.
Mama Queen-Anne
“I am so happy to have had Roxanne on my birth team. Her skills, understanding, and calming energy truly made a world of a difference in my birthing experience. She guided me through various relaxation techniques, breathing exercises, and positions that helped me when my baby was breech and for a smooth labor & delivery. The prenatal sessions allowed me to tap into my inner strength and embrace the journey of birthing my baby boy in the best way possible. She also provided postpartum care and guidance that was the cherry on top I didn’t know I needed. I 100% recommend Roxanne to anyone seeking a birthing experience that is both empowering and tranquil.”

Labor Support at Home Package
Are you planning to give birth at the hospital, but you don’t necessarily need or want me to go to the hospital with you?
Then I think this offering is for you!
We all know that a labor can be long and sometimes challenging. And if you’re going for a natural, medical intervention-free birth experience, then going to the hospital at the last moment is the best advice any birth practitioner will give you. Going to the hospital in the last moments of your labor will ensure that you spend the majority of the process in the coziness of your home, immersed in your birth bubble which most of the time will result in a more pleasant and relaxing birth experience.
But I get it!
Sometimes you don’t have the right support team at home or you just don’t know what the normal phases of labor look like so you end up going to the hospital too “early”. Your partner is tired, you are tired and you just want medical help to escape from the situation which can end up in a very medicalized birth. These can all be normal parts of labor and birth.
As a Doula I also offer the service to come support you the during the whole length of your laboring process at home. When the moment of going to the hospital comes I will not come with you.
The Package includes 1 Mama in Bloom Session & full, hands-on support during your complete labor at home.
As your Doula I will help you prepare for birth in the mental, emotional & physical aspects in the weeks beforehand. From 37 weeks on I will be on call and come to you when you go into labor or whenever you need my support and/or presence. I will stay with you throughout the whole process and form part of your birth support team at home.
