Doula Faye
Welcome. Please take a look around my website, and learn about me and the support I offer.
There is a miracle in every new beginning.
Hermann Hesse
Hi, I'm Faye, a postnatal doula and mentored birth-doula, offering support in Kerrier (Cornwall) and surroundings. When you ask me to be there for you and your family through your perinatal journey, I bring an open ear, pampering therapies, and loving presence. I always feel very honoured to be a part of someone’s path, especially at such a unique moment in their lives, and I look forward to meeting you.
Faye was wonderful and really made a positive impact to my postpartum journey, particularly after NICU.

Support for you and your family...
Working with me
A doula is for everyone. I'm here to support you and your baby, but also your partner, older children and wider family. And you can have a doula at any point in your (birth-) journey, and no matter whether it's child #1 or #6.
Supporting Therapies
Over the years, I've collected an offering of different supportive and pampering therapies. As part of your postnatal journey with me, you can have massage, moxa-therapy, herbal baths and Sitzbaths. Although none of them are compulsory, and we'll put together and individual postnatal plan, tailored to your needs and wishes.
Energy Healing
Sometimes it can be beneficial to have an energetic debrief, either as part of your prenatal preparation or after your birth experience. You can either book Shamanic Healing sessions as part of your package, or outside of your perinatal journey.
Why a doula?
Practising with independent midwives and looking after friends postnatally, I learned that support is not so much about the where and what but the 'HOW'. After birthing my own daughter in 2016, I became even more aware of how vital good postnatal care was. My mum had been there for my daughter's birth and the immediate postpartum phase. I felt so well cared for and buoyed by her love for us that I wanted this experience to be available to all newborn parents.
