“Her calm presence, unwavering confidence, and profound knowledge of birth made our entire family feel safe and deeply supported. We now lovingly call her our “family doula,” because there’s truly no one else we would trust to help us welcome a new soul into the world.”
About
As a doula, my greatest strength lies in my ability to offer deeply grounded, intuitive, and emotionally attuned care, holding space for birthing families in a way that feels steady, nourishing, and calm. My clients often describe me as someone who brings warmth, confidence, and a sense of peace into their birth and postpartum spaces. I have a natural ability to read the energy of a room and respond with exactly what is needed—whether that’s quiet presence, gentle encouragement, practical support, or hands-on comfort.
What truly fuels my passion for this work is supporting families across the full spectrum of the perinatal journey—from birth preparation to labour, postpartum recovery, and everything in between. I love being able to offer both the practical and the nurturing: a cup of tea when it’s needed most, a guided breath when the room feels tense, or a nourishing meal to help a new mother feel held.
My main areas of focus include:
Prenatal yoga (offering space to connect with your body and baby, ease the common body discomforts of pregnancy, create room for your growing baby, and gently prepare for birth and postpartum)
Birth support (creating calm, empowered, and grounded environments, whether at home or in hospital)
Postpartum support (with a strong emphasis on emotional support, nourishment, and rest)
I’ve had the privilege of supporting a wide range of birth experiences—from peaceful home births to powerful, transformative hospital births—and I bring the same steady presence and wholehearted care to every setting. Whether I’m gently guiding a postpartum ritual or preparing a warm meal for a tired new parent, I bring my whole heart to this work.

Testimonials
“I was slightly unsure of whether I wanted a doula as part of my birth team but pretty much as soon as I met Georgia, I felt like she would provide something that i needed in that vulnerable time. Georgia is caring, interested, knowledgeable & passionate. It was very easy for me to feel connected & trusting of her in our pre birth meet ups.
I felt so relieved when she arrived during my labour. She was such an attentive, loving companion. Her support was unintrusive, constant, strengthening & oh so loving. Such a gift to have her there.”
Elky (Lonnie’s Mama)
“Georgia supported us after the birth of our second baby, and she showed up with such warmth, intuition, and the kind of gentle care that quietly transforms a hard week. She brought genuine connection and calm into our home—from nourishing food, a herbal footbath, a cup of tea just when I needed a pause, to a gentle yoga flow to help my tired, postpartum body feel a little more like mine again while she held my babe. As a second-time mum, I wasn’t looking for all the answers, just someone steady, practical, and kind to walk alongside me. Georgia was that and more. She helped us plan ahead, checked in after the birth, stayed connected between visits, and even set up a meal train with our community. She moved effortlessly between practical help and deep care, and I felt truly supported in those early, tender weeks, especially with an unsettled babe and lots of difficulties feeding. She is just a delightful human and I’m so grateful for her support.
Sam (Neve & Marlo’s Mama)
“Georgia has been our doula for all three of our babies, and we truly can’t put into words how incredible she has been for each and every birth. She guided us through one hospital birth and two home births, and we honestly couldn’t have done it without her. Georgia has an innate sense of exactly where to be and how to support us at every moment, stepping in seamlessly wherever she’s needed.
She dedicated so much of her time to us in the lead-up to each birth and went above and beyond during all three labours. Her calm presence, unwavering confidence, and profound knowledge of birth made our entire family feel safe and deeply supported. We now lovingly call her our “family doula,” because there’s truly no one else we would trust to help us welcome a new soul into the world.”
Christina & Thomas (Taj, Romeo + Nico’s folks)
“Having Georgia as my doula was one of the best decisions I’ve made! I truly can’t imagine my pregnancy, birth or postpartum experience without having had her by my side. From the very beginning, her knowledge, calm presence and reassuring support completely changed the way I understood and approached birth.
During the birth itself, Georgia made me feel completely comfortable. She is one of those rare individuals with such a beautiful energy and grounded nervous system that she pulls you into a similar state by osmosis. She transformed the clinical hospital setting into a peaceful, nurturing space and her steady presence in that room is something I will always cherish. I can’t fathom having done it without her now.
Her postpartum visits, emotional support, and the special moments she captured on camera meant so much. Georgia was an absolute gift during one of the most intense and transformative times of my life and I wholeheartedly believe my birth experience would have felt entirely different without her. Georgia brings something very special to this work, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for doula support.”
Heidi (Freya’s Mama)
“I met Georgia through her Prenatal Yoga classes and instantly felt calm in her presence. I had recently found out I was pregnant and was feeling overwhelmed, but I quickly found a safe space in her classes. As time went on, I realised how much I needed her support in my journey, so I was incredibly lucky to secure her as my postpartum doula.
As an anxious first-time mum, I knew I needed help, a grounding presence in those early days. Georgia provided my husband and me with nourishing (and delicious!) food, helped around the house, supported us with our new baby and breastfeeding, and most importantly, sat and talked with me when I needed it most. I can’t recommend her highly enough. I’m so thankful she was part of my pregnancy and postpartum journey.”
Grace (Mabel’s Mama)
