Doula Cologne

Laura

Hello Mama, let me guide you through pregnancy, stand beside you during birth and nurture you postpartum. 

I am a 37 year old, British born, Köln Mülheim based, Mama of one. My birth and postpartum experience was a mixed bag and whilst I had a great birth experience and I recovered physically very quickly, I had underestimated the mental strain of those first days and weeks with a new born baby. The situation wasn’t helped by me living far away from family and childhood friends and I was left feeling alone and unsure of myself.

My aim is to provide support to women before, during and after birth, listening to them, reassuring them and supporting them. I have a particular focus on English speaking women but after 12 years here in Köln, my German is pretty good too!
