Hello!
I’m Jeanette and would find it a real honour to support you in your birth journey as your birthkeeper and doula. I am one of Nickita Starck’s When Push Comes to Shove birthkeeper tribe and recently entered on the register with Doula U.K. I am also a certified hypnobirthing practitioner, registered with the NCHP, and trained to treat all things pregnancy and birth related by hypnotherapy.
With everything happening in the past few years, many people have changed their attitude towards birthing outside of the hospital setting. I can be there to support you in any of your choices, whether that is birthing at home, or freebirthing in whatever setting you choose. I can help support you in discussions with health care professionals and signpost to best information to help you make the decision that’s right for you.
I worked in the NHS as a nurse and a midwife. Unfortunately, I became very unwell following administration of the Hep B vaccine which resulted in my career ending.
I recently retired from completely non-related work but have found myself drawn back into the world of all things birth – once there it never really leaves you – I have completely fallen back in love doing what I do and will do whatever I can to help you achieve the birth that you want.
As a midwife, I attended many wonderful homebirths – this cemented how wonderful, good and safe the vast majority are and made me realise that most problems are caused by the measures put in place within hospitals to “help”. Did you know you are more likely to get a shoulder dystocia and/or haemorrhage if you have an epidural, oxytocin drip or instrumental delivery? Did you know you have the right to a homebirth even when you’ve had a previous Caesarian?
I have experience with twins, breech, VBAC, GD, water birth, to name but a few, and I am a strong supporter in all things physiological, including placenta and delayed cord clamping.
I can cover anywhere via video, but most in-person work restricted to south Hampshire and West Sussex due to location. I am willing to travel further afield to support more complex births.
Contact me to discuss your rights and choices – I look forward to hearing from you x
