Doula Services
Continuous, compassionate non-medical support before, during and after your birth. For every pregnancy, every birth, every person.
Your person in the room
A doula is a trained, non-medical birth professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to a birthing person before, during and after birth.
Unlike midwives and doctors, a doula's sole focus is you. They don't have clinical responsibilities — they are there entirely in your service. Research consistently shows that having a doula present leads to better outcomes for both birthing people and babies.
A doula never replaces your medical team — they complement them, helping you navigate the system and ensuring your voice is heard.

“Just incredible! Leanne was amazing from the moment we booked her. She protected my birth space perfectly and advocated for me many times.”
Where I support families
I'm based in North West Leicestershire and support families across Leicester, Loughborough, Coalville, Ashby-de-la-Zouch and the surrounding areas. I travel around an hour for births, so if you're within reach just ask — and if you're further afield, virtual support works anywhere in the UK.
