Baby B

Born on the 17.09.2019


Congratulations to Pearl, Ross and Master O on the arrival of your precious little baby daughter and sister. Thank you for inviting me to be part of your lives, and to be your guide as you embarked on your special birth journey.

I am always so happy when I have permission from my birthing Goddesses to share their birth stories.

“The wisdom and compassion a woman can intuitively experience in childbirth can make her a source of healing for other woman” -Stephen Gaskin

It’s heart-warming for women to see that birth can be fulfilling and empowering, that it is just not a nice extra to have continuity of care, dignity and respect …. it’s essential. This kind of knowledge makes women strong. Reclaiming birth and bringing back the power to its rightful owner- the birthing woman. Makes my heart sing with joy xx

When I first met Pearl, she already knew first-hand how birth has the ability to transform you forever. That you never forget the day your baby was born. Neither do you forget how you felt, how you were cared for and how you were listened to and respected. These feelings stay with you for always. It is not all about how your baby entered the world. This will not be the defining factor of how you are left feeing after giving birth.

Birth is a lot more about -preparation, knowledge, having options, feeling listened too, respected and emotionally and physical supported. These are the essential ingredients needed for a positive birth.

Pearls first birth left her knowing one thing for sure. She was not going to leave her fate to chance this time around. Pearl knew she was going to make some informed choices and take the steps to make sure she could give herself the best opportunity to have a safe, comfortable and satisfying birth for her and for her baby. A birth where she could fully trust in her care provider and her support team.

This is where choosing to hire a doula and care provider that shared in the same values as Pearl and Ross allowed them both to feel confident, informed and educated as Pearl prepared to pass through these powerful gates a second time around.

By the time Baby B made us all aware she was ready to make her debut, Peal and her husband Ross were ready. Dr Amanda Denis and I, were all on board and prepared to ensure a safe, supported and loving passage for both Pearl and baby B.

I am happy to share that Pearl was truly able to achieve the most beautiful, undisturbed, healing and empowering birth as she welcomed her daughter peacefully into the world.

Pearl felt safe enough this time to truly embrace all the sensations that birth has to offer. Pearl was able to confidently surrender to the birth process and go deep inside herself and follow her bodies lead. Pearl trusted that her birth team would care and support her in a way that enabled her to tap into her own birth power and be the driver of her own birth. When a woman feels this way it’s clear to see that birth is fundamentally a spiritual as much as a physical achievement. Moving through these powerful gates in her own way, collecting the soul of her baby and bringing her earth side truly takes my breath away every time.

The joy and happiness in the room was contagious. My heart overflowed with love and pride. We were all in awe of Pearl. A Birthing Goddess in all her Glory.

Welcome to world baby B…. it was truly an honour to witness you make your debut earth side. I’m so happy that Pearl invested in herself and was able to experience the joy of a truly safe, supported and empowering birth this time.

I have a heart full of wonderful memories that remind me every day that I have an opportunity with every family, I meet to make a difference.

Thank you again Pearl and Ross for choosing me to be part of your story xxx
