Let’s Journey Together

The Fourth Trimester is full of physical, emotional, and mental demands, making it easy to feel overwhelmed.

My mission is to help you feel capable, calm, and fully supported during this life-changing chapter. By combining evidence-based practices with a holistic approach, I will work closely with you to create a personalised support system that addresses your unique needs, preferences, and goals.

I believe every family deserves tailored care that honours their individual journey, which is why I take the time to listen, understand, and guide you with compassion and expertise. From birth preparation to postpartum recovery, I will ensure you have the tools, knowledge, and emotional support you need to feel empowered.

Together, we’ll build a foundation that nurtures not only your physical well-being but also your emotional and mental health, so you can fully embrace this transformative time with confidence, peace, and a sense of preparedness.

You are never alone, I am here to support you every step of the way.

Let’s Connect!

Hello there.

I am Amanda.

Wife, Mother and Doula.

I’ll walk with you, offering support that goes beyond the physical to nurture your mind, heart, and stomach in this new stage of your life.

Let’s dive into the delightful chaos of motherhood, share some laughs, and celebrate our unique journeys together. I believe these chats can spark joy and connection, so drop me a line, and let’s chat about all the beautiful, messy moments of this amazing journey!

How can I help?

  • Birth Preparation: Gentle guidance to help you feel prepared and confident for your birth experience. I’ll help you navigate the NHS Maternity Services and help you advocate for your rights and preferences in the labour room.
  • Postpartum Support: From being a steady source of emotional support to ensuring you have time to shower, grab a bite, or simply take a break, I’m here to make those early days feel a little easier.
  • Infant care: I offer hands-on guidance with essential infant care tasks, including diapering, bathing, soothing techniques, and sleep guidance. I help you establish healthy sleep habits for your baby, from creating a sleep-friendly environment to understanding sleep cycles and implementing soothing strategies, ensuring both you and your baby get the rest you need.
  • Breastfeeding and Lactation Guide: I provide breastfeeding and lactation support, helping you with latch techniques, positioning, and ensuring that both you and your baby are comfortable during feedings. Whether you need advice on managing supply or overcoming challenges, I’m here to ensure you feel confident and supported in your breastfeeding journey.
  • Traditional Malay Womb Massage: As a certified massage therapist, I specialise in postpartum Malay womb massage, a traditional practice that supports women through postpartum recovery. I help restore pelvic and reproductive health, encourage gentle circulation, and realign the body, guiding women to reconnect with their inner strength, vitality, and sense of wholeness after childbirth.
  • Lactation Massage: I provide postpartum lactation massage to support nursing mothers, gently encouraging milk flow while relieving engorgement and clearing clogged ducts. This holistic approach nurtures both body and mind, helping women feel confident, comfortable, and empowered in their breastfeeding experience.

The Art of Birth

Preparing for birth is more than learning techniques, it is about tuning into your body, understanding its rhythms, and awakening your inner strength.

In birth preparation, I guide women with hands-on practice, breathing techniques and labouring positions, and mindful strategies to cope with each stage of labour. Beyond the physical, we explore emotional readiness, relaxation, and confidence-building, creating a safe and supportive space to connect deeply with your body and your baby. This preparation empowers you to move through the transformative experience of birth with clarity, trust, and presence, embracing each moment as it unfolds with strength, grace, and serenity.

I guide women to trust their bodies, awaken their strength, and meet birth with calm, confidence, and presence.

Baby Decoded

As a mum of two boys, I know how tender and overwhelming those early days can be.

I’m here to offer hands-on help with breastfeeding and bottle-feeding assistance, guidance on infant care, and the gentle support you need to feel steady and capable. Whether it’s helping you find comfortable feeding positions, calming your baby, or just giving you a moment to breathe, I’m here for you. My goal is to make sure you feel cared for and supported so you can focus on bonding with your little one.

I will guide you through every milestone, so you can care for your newborn with confidence.

Let’s have a think about Matrescence

The emotional labour pains of becoming a mother are far greater than the physical pangs of birth; these are the growing surges of your heart as it pushes out selfishness and fear and makes room for sacrifice and love. It is a private and silent birth of the soul, but it is no less holy than the event of childbirth—perhaps even more sacred.

Along with me, we shall discover ways to navigate the transitions into Matrescence. As a Doula, I pride myself on being a compassionate listening ear, creating a safe space where you can openly discuss anything on your mind. Whether you’re navigating the complexities of pregnancy, seeking guidance on newborn care, or simply looking for support through the emotional ups and downs of motherhood, I am here to listen. There is no topic too big or small, as I believe that honest, open conversations are essential for your well-being. Together, we can explore your thoughts and feelings, fostering a supportive environment that empowers you on your journey into motherhood and your very, very new Self.
