My name is Eleanor and I share my life with four beautiful souls on the edge of Dartmoor; my husband and our 3 wonderful boys. For as long as I can remember I have felt a calling and connection to the journey of pregnancy, birth and the postnatal period. It is a true honour to be present and witness a woman's power and strength throughout the sacred and honoured journey into parenthood.
I believe it is fundamentally important that women and pregnant people have the right to be heard, their choices listened to and respected, and to feel safe and supported throughout their journey. I became a midwife in 2016 and have worked for the NHS for the past 6 years. It has been an privilege to be able to support and care for people during this time, however my relationship to, and understanding of this role has profoundly changed over the past few years, and I have felt a true connection and calling towards a holistic way of supporting women on a deeper and more intimate level, and building relationships based upon trust and respect over time. As such, I trained with Kate as a birth and postnatal Doula with Conscious Birthing.
In my role as a Trauma Informed Doula, my job is to inform and support you in your journey, to make empowered decisions in the knowledge and belief that you know what is right for you and your baby. I will provide non-judgemental support, listen to you and be by your side every step of the way, holding space for you to explore your options and discover strategies to help you feel safe, and in control.
