If you are a single mother or low income family please be in touch, I charge this amount so I can take you on also. I am open for energy exchange, work exchange.
I'm here to support all pregnant women—however you envision your birth. Whether you're planning a natural birth, a cesarean, or a VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean), I’m by your side. I work with families in homes, birth centers, and hospitals throughout Berlin, Germany.
As your birth doula, I offer calm emotional support and physical comfort throughout labor. I provide gentle prompts and grounded, nonjudgmental guidance to help you make informed decisions that feel right for you. Studies show that having a doula can reduce the likelihood of interventions, inductions, and the need for pain medication—because feeling supported truly makes a difference.
You can think of a doula as a professional friend—someone who brings the empathy, presence, and reassurance of a close companion, but with trained expertise, healthy boundaries, and a focus solely on your needs. I’m not here to tell you what to do or bring my own agenda into your birth space. I'm here to hold space for your experience—emotionally, physically, and informationally—so you feel confident, respected, and never alone.
Placenta Encapsulation
The 'fourth trimester' can sometimes leave you feeling quite emotional, weepy, overwhelmed, fatigued and maybe even anxious. Placenta capsules or consuming your placenta isn't a new thing its far from a new concept. This can be a natural way to ease this hormonal let-down and support the transition into the postpartum for new mothers. The placenta has been used traditionally for thousands of years for its abundance of positive postnatal effects. A woman can lose up to 18% of her iron stores after giving birth.
Preventing or decreasing developing the 'baby blues' and postnatal depression.
Replenishing the essential hormones like oxytocin and CRH (stress reducer).
Replenishing essential nutrients like iron, vitamin B6, amino acids and essential fats.
Minimising postnatal bleeding and helping the uterus return to its normal size it was before.
Increasing and enriching breast milk supply.
Minimises stress levels; leaving mothers feeling calmer and happy for her new baby.
Feel more energised and less tired also.
Decreasing iron deficiency in mothers after giving birth.
It allows the mothers body and spirit to return to vibrant health after giving birth.

Postpartum doulas are there to nurture the family and support during this great time of change. They are mentors who answer your questions and provides much needed assurance in a gentle, non-judgmental way, allowing you to develop your own unique parenting style that suits you. After baby arrives transitioning into parenthood is eased by continuous support.
Hiring a night time doula is one of the ways parents can get some rest at night and be able to continue with the other commitments the next day. Sleeplessness is an inevitable part of caring for a baby and a night time doula’s main job is to spend the night to give the parent a chance to rest. The doula handles the baby’s night time feedings regardless of bottle fed or breastfeeding, soothes the baby to sleep and tends to its needs.
