Victoria is a birth and postnatal doula who supports families through pregnancy, birth and beyond. She believes birthing people have the right to a positive birth and postnatal experience, and that this can be achieved with the help of consistent and compassionate support.  She offers support both in person in Aberdeen, Scotland, and online anywhere in the world. She is also a trained Traumatic Birth Recovery 3 Step Rewind Practitioner, and Perinatal Emotional Health and Wellbeing Practitioner. She is the mum of two girls, one of whom is autistic, and is passionate about improving support for neurodivergent people perinatally.

I’m Em a neurodiverse mom of 3. I am a late diagnosed ADHDer and have been working hard over the past few years to better understand myself and how my ND has impacted on my pregnancies and births. It is important to me that neurodiverse birthing people feel fully prepared for birth and postpartum through the lens of their ND profile and feel empowered to communicate those needs to those around them . This in tandem with educating support partners / medical staff on how to better meet the needs of ND people will, I hope, work to ensure that ND people have the best possible birth and postpartum experiences possible.

Hey, my name is Martine. I'm a doula, an Ex- nurse, a mum and an enthusiastic capoeira player. Underneath all that I'm Dutch and moving is my go to thing to get me through life. Chaotic from the inside, but great in providing you with info and signposting you to experts. Most of all I'm good in cheering you on for being you! The ladder can only be done by listening and connecting. Connecting with a fellow neurodivergent person makes me often feel more understood hopefully it will do the same for you!

I’m Zoe, I’m an autistic doula, birth activist and research scientist with a passion for supporting neurodivergent folks through pregnancy and postpartum. As a late diagnosed autistic, who had two births without knowing I was neurodivergent, I know the impact that not having this level of care can have and how hard it can be to navigate the maternity system. I’d love to be that person who can help and support you through this magical time.

I’m Louise, a postnatal doula and hypnobirthing teacher. It’s my passion to support expectant and new families through the perinatal transition.

With over a decade of campaigning for women’s rights on the frontlines with the UN, governments, charities, and leading some of the world’s largest gender equality organisations, I have a powerful voice to lend when needed.I am also trained to offer Closing the Bones ceremonies and Mother Blessings/Blessing Way ceremonies (alternative Baby Showers), which can be done separately or as part of a package of support, both in person and remote. I have personal experience as a queer, neurodivergent individual sensitive to issues of marginalisation, trepidation around body image, institutions and sensory issues.

Hi! I'm Rise, like the Sun:). I'm a queer, nonbinary, Black, trauma informed, full spectrum birthworker in Chicago, originally from St. Louis. I've been a practicing birthworker for 6 years and a healing practitioner for over 10. My focus is labor, postpartum, abortion and grief & loss support. The folks I support are Black and Brown, neurodivergent, disabled and chronically ill, queer trans and nonbinary and/or low income. I love the work I do. I love my job. I love mangoes and sloths. And I'd love to work with you! I am deeply invested in disability justice, access, centering wellness for Black queer folk, trauma education, and rest. When not doing the most, they enjoy daydreaming, dancing, and hanging with their support pup, Jelly Ferocious.

Hey! I'm Beth, a ND birth worker with a keen interest in home birth and freebirth, advocacy, and supporting marginalised communities to reclaim their power in birth. I can't wait to work with you.

I'm Laurène (she/her), a passionate neurodivergent and queer parent to an amazing kiddo. My journey as a postnatal doula, infant feeding coach, and pregnancy/postnatal yoga teacher was deeply shaped by the transformative experience of welcoming my child into this world. Along my own path, I've faced moments of feeling lost and unsupported. I'm dedicated to extending that vital support to YOU. I started teaching yoga in 2014, specializing in pregnancy and postnatal yoga from 2016. In 2019, I became a certified fertility yoga teacher and advanced postnatal yoga teacher. More recently, in 2021, I added postnatal Doula and Infant feeding coach to my qualifications. Looking forward to being part of your journey!

I have worked with children for more than 20 years. I have worked in a variety of settings including playgroups, nurseries and private homes. I worked as an independent nanny for 15 years and currently support neurodivergent youth via Gecko Community. I also support LGBTQ+ families via The Queer Parenting Partnership, the UK’s only LGBTQ+ specific perinatal education provider.

I'm Ellie (she/her), mother of two boys and living in South Derbyshire. I am a mentored doula and I am passionate about parents receiving the support that they need from the very beginning and into the early years. I am a breastfeeding peer supporter with personal experience in tandem feeding and I love wearing both of my boys in a carrier. I have had a great range of experiences during my own parenting journey, from a hospital birth to a home birth, combi-feeding and exclusively breastfeeding. Ultimately I can relate to navigating through the unknown territories of becoming parents, especially as I am still in the thick of it!

I’m Frankie (she/her).

I’m a Doula living with ADHD, dyslexia and dyspraxia as well as a parent to a son with Autism and Sensory processing disorder. I’m a neurodivergent birth worker and advocate, focused on supporting parents and professionals understand neurodivergence and supporting them through their journeys. 

I’m Holly (she/her). Wife to a graphic designer, Mum of 3 boys and a black cat and black dog (can you see a theme emerging), living in Bristol.

Currently awaiting assessment for ADHD myself after years of knowing there was something more to the way I see or feel things.

My passion for birth work started after the birth of my second baby during the Covid pandemic, and not receiving any support or help afterwards, I was left thinking of the people who were going through this for the first time and how they must be feeling.

So I chose to train as a doula and use my experience as a mother and the knowledge from my training to help and guide parents to have a positive birth experience. After falling in love with the birth space further after my training, I also trained as a hypnobirthing teacher.

​I want to help parents birth without fear and to help people feel comfortable with whichever birth they choose. I believe that every birth is valid and the choice you make is the right way for you to birth your baby.

I offer a trauma informed holistic approach and will always tailor my packages and services to suit each family individually.

So let’s rebel! Let’s break the ‘tradition’ that birth should be a feared event. Let’s have that birth that you want, where you want, how you want!

As a full spectrum doula I offer my care and support throughout the perinatal period. Fertility, loss, termination, antenatal, birth and postnatal. I’m here for you through all of it.

I'm committed to helping you figure out what’s right for you. My intention is that in choosing to work with me you feel supported and held, confident, informed and autonomous.

I’ll help you to develop an understanding of your options. We'll take a holistic approach, drawing on the best available evidence to inform your decisions. Together we’ll explore, question and prepare in a non-judgemental environment.

We'll work to ensure you are ready to advocate for your choices when you need to. You are the expert on your body and what's right for you.

My service is as unique and diverse as the families I work with. I'd be honoured to be by your side on this path, whatever that looks like for you and your family.

My mission for Our Village Circle is to create a space of authentic sharing, and elevate the voices of parents and professionals alike to demystify the realities of new parenthood. I want you to feel seen, heard, and known, and I wholeheartedly believe that everyone's story has something powerful to offer others as they walk their own path.

I have experienced for myself the difference between feeling seen, heard, supported, and informed vs. feeling dismissed, judged, abandoned, invalidated, and ignored during this incredibly vulnerable time. It is so important to me that birthing people be lifted up, affirmed in their insights and experiences, and encouraged as they cross this life-altering threshold.

I am mum of 1 and I was late diagnosed with autism spectrum condition when I was 16! I have been through a lot with this and have a deep first hand experience of neurodivergency. I have been a doula since April 2023 and I would love to help others in need.

Hi, and CONGRATULATIONS! I’m Lisa. I am originally from Seattle Washington in the USA. I am a mom to 3 amazing boys (25, 22 & 14 years old), two of which are ND, as are a number of various family members. Although I personally am NT, I have intense or extreme first hand experience in helping ND people. It just takes patience, listening and understanding. As your birth doula, it is extremely important to me that you feel as though you are being heard. I will be your support person, will ask the hard questions, and will help push back to get the birth experience you desire (of course assuming medical issues necessities). It is so important that when you are in labour, you feel informed, safe and secure enough to let go and allow your body to do what it was made to do. I aim to ensure you feel safe, comfortable and informed at all times, providing continuous support to you and your partner during pregnancy and of course, on the day of your labour. As your Postnatal Doula, I will be there as an emotional and physical support to you and your family during those important first few weeks. This is when you will learn and decide how you want to parent your baby. I will help you to feel relaxed and confident about caring for your baby. Provide all of the “tips and tricks” that I’ve been taught. I’m happy to do whatever I can to make your life easier. If you are struggling with sleep, breastfeeding or any of the other challenges a new baby can bring, I will be there to help you find your strength. My main goal is to be as flexible as possible so that you will feel rested, relaxed and confident. When looking for a doula, that person must become someone you can trust and rely on, someone who is non-judgmental and understands you as an individual, recognising your emotions and concerns. Someone who “fits” in with your small family and team. Whether you have family near or far, I’d love to be part of your team. Take a look at my website www.labouroflovedoula.com and please get in touch. I’m happy to schedule a free, no-obligation consultation. This new chapter into parenthood can feel daunting and I'd be honored to be by your side, supporting you every step of the way! Welcome to parenthood... life's greatest blessing!

Feedback I have often received includes families feeling seen and understood in their needs, as well as my supporting them in navigating the maternity system to ensure their needs are met throughout the perinatal period.

I am a birth and postnatal doula living in Fareham, Hampshire. I'm diagnosed AuDHD, and the parent of several small neurodivergent people! I know that neurodivergent people's experiences are all unique, and my aim is to offer a safe space to support those individual journeys. I have also trained with the Queer Birth Club, to further improve what I can offer.

My first pregnancy ended at 22-weeks. And then – infertility and IVF. My first postpartum was, let’s say, not awesome. I tried so hard to be the perfect mom, but I was always anxious, worried, on-edge. “I love him so much. Why is it so hard? I love him so much. Why is he so intense? I love him so much. Why do I always feel angry?” Turns out, it was postpartum anxiety – courtesy of my undiagnosed ASD and ADHD. I want a re-do. But since that’s impossible, I’ve designed this incredible program that I can’t wait to share with you. Basically, I’ve read all the books, listened to all the podcasts, and gotten all the certifications so you don’t have to. Because who has time for that when you’re pregnant or postpartum? And while it’s true we’re at a greater risk of developing Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders, knowledge is power, and PMADs are not inevitable. We’ll get you set up with the knowledge, strategies, and mindset you need to create a life you can manage.
