As a birth and postnatal doula, I will support and empower you in making choices for a positive birth experience, and ease the newborn stage with nourishing food and hands-on support, giving you the best start with your baby.

Hi, I'm Tamsin, The Nourishing Doula

The birth of your baby (or babies) is an exciting time, but birth choices can feel overwhelming and the early days with a newborn are likely to turn your world upside-down. I’m passionate about supporting new parents through this pivotal stage, equipping you with the tools you need to believe in yourself and your baby.
I’m also a keen foodie – my first job was with Delia Smith! I’m a published cookery writer of many years’ experience and have created hundreds of recipes which I can now bring to your home via my batch cooking service.
