A little about Me

I had an epiphany whilst on a career break to bring up my two daughters aged 4 and 6. I no longer wanted to work in an office doing a 9-5:00 job, I wanted to help people. So over the past few years I have embarked on an incredible journey. I became a Breastfeeding Peer Support Volunteer in the Belfast Trust, a KGhypnobirthing Practitioner and a Doula. I have Voluntered with the Perinatal Team at my local Sure Start and have started a three year Diploma in Acupuncture.

What is a Doula?

A doula is a professional trained in childbirth who provides emotional, physical and informational support to the mother who is expecting, is experiencing labour, or has recently given birth. The doula’s purpose is to help women have a safe, memorable and empowering birthing experience. As above this extends to the Postnatal period where the same mantra is applied as women enter their journey into motherhood.

Most often the term doula refers to the birth doula, or labour support companion, labour support specialist ,labour support professionals, birth assistants or labour assistants.

Miss Tellope

I was anxious throughout this pregnancy following a high-risk pregnancy (hellp condition ) with my first child as you are well aware. I was also induced first time so not knowing what to expect giving birth this time added to the anxiety! The relaxation and breathing techniques you taught me during the hypnosis sessions really helped me address my fear and helped through my labour. I can’t thank you enough and highly recommend you to anyone I know! I had requested an epidural on my birth plan however due to the circumstances it wasn’t to be… I am proud of myself as to how I was able to cope and stay relatively calm throughout labour and this is all down to you Carol! I find it hard to switch off but the relaxation was amazing during and after the treatment.
