BIRTH SUPPORT

"my whole family has benefited from Sofia's calm support and it has given us strength as we enter this new phase as parents"

hello, I'm Sofia
I'm a fully accredited birth and postnatal doula supporting mothers and parents walking the transformational path of pregnancy, birth and postpartum, upholding your power and emotional wellbeing at every stage.
You're here because you know deep down that birth gets to feel precious and sacred, however that might look for you and your family. You know your family deserve truly personalised support, continuity of carer (not just any, but someone you get to choose!) and the all-round glowing reverence for birth that our current maternity system isn't able to provide, and you know how influential those elements are to the way your baby will be welcomed into your arms.
Imagine feeling safely held, celebrated and so empowered at the centre of your experience; feeling absolutely elated and overwhelmed with a pride in yourself you've never known before, radiating joy with your new baby after completing the ultimate joint effort together. I experienced this for myself and it changed me forever, and so Hello Earth too was born.
My approach is kind, honest and good humoured, because we all know some moments are laugh or cry! Wherever you are at, I'll meet you there, to validate your feelings, hold your hand through the foggy misinformation and hormonal ups and downs, or to help give you resolve to trust yourself when you need it.
Think of me as your holistic, straight-talking cheerleader, reminding you how powerful and capable you are, just in case you forget.
I'm based in Banbury and support families in Oxfordshire, Warwickshire, The Cotswolds, parts of Northamptonshire and, of course, anywhere virtually.
Home Birth Client, Wallingford
“Sofia was our doula for the birth of our second baby and she was fundamental in helping us have the birth that we had dreamed of. She has such a nurturing, kind and empowering approach while at the same time showing such passion for standing up against the failings of the maternity care system and advocating for women."
Postnatal Client, Heyford
"Sofia was my postnatal doula for 5 weeks after my daughter was born. I cannot recommend her support highly enough. Sofia brought such calm and kindness to our home. She listens without judgment and with wisdom, reassurance, validation and finding humour when I needed it! I felt really cared for at my most vulnerable moments."
Hospital Birth Client, Leamington
"Choosing to work with Sofia was the single best decision my husband and I made in preparation for our first baby’s birth. She has such a calm and grounding presence that put me at ease from the very first conversation. She made me feel so safe and supported and really worked with us to understand all of our options when creating our birth preferences."
about me
I can usually be found hanging out with my young family, probably listening to alt rock, having a kitchen disco or cooking something easy and comforting. My other specialism is floristry and being creative with flowers also brings me joy.
When I had my two little boys in 2019 and 2022, I couldn't believe the seismic shift, physically, emotionally and spiritually, that I experienced. I can still recall both of their births so clearly and it was only as I began to share this with other mothers that I discovered it's a common thread - the memory of giving birth, and crucially, how supported and safe we felt, stays with us forever.
Research repeatedly highlights how influential this is to our mental health, as well as our bond with our baby, postpartum, it can and does create positive generational change and it's an honour to witness mothers and parents prioritise this support for themselves and their children. Not something to be 'winged' or a flow to go with, but a precious transition to be cherished and fully invested in.
I offer a free, no pressure 30 minute discovery call.
Just pop me a message via my contact page to book. I would love to hear how I could support you.
