Yorkshire Doula Network

Yorkshire Doula Network A network of doulas in Yorkshire We work independently to support women before, during, and after birth

Zoe Cook Birth and postnatal doula Leeds and district I believe childbirth is such a natural and important moment in a woman’s journey, with powerful repercussions for months and years. I have a strong desire to support women through the antenatal, birth and post natal periods so they may enjoy childbirth and the early days with their newborn as much as I did. 0113 216 5593 07742 545 361 Send an email Visit Zoe's website		Lesley Hilton Birth and postnatal doula Leeds and district I believe that birth, in general, is not a medical event. Your body knows what to do, and with support and encouragement nature will do her stuff. I am co-chair of the Maternity Services Liason Committee in Leeds, and through that come into contact with all sorts of people who I can ask for advice and help on your behalf if necessary. 0113 293 1400 07977 906 960 Send an email Visit Lesley's website	Margit Waites Birth doula York and district I want to be there for women during their pregnancy, the birth, and in the postnatal period, as a confidante who supports them and helps them to have a gentle birth, a nice birth experience. I want to encourage a woman's trust in her own strengths, to self-determinedly give birth, to naturally breastfeed and to master the adjustment of being a parent. 01904 639160 07847 392 471 Send an email Visit Margit's website


Jill Harris Birth doula Todmorden and Hebden Bridge Birth is the beginning of a new relationship between a child and the world, and a positive birth with a happy mum has to be the best way for that relationship to start! Having someone to help you feel relaxed and confident about the birth, and who you trust to support you and advocate for you makes a huge difference. 01706 815490 Send an email Visit Jill's website	.	Helen Scarlett Postnatal doula Huddersfield and district Since having my own children, I have always had a keen interest in labour and birth and love everything about motherhood and babies. I very much want to be there for women during pregnancy, labour, birth and the postnatal period to offer support and reassurance. I felt very moved by my own first experience of giving birth, having had an amazing amount of support from my partner and a very dedicated midwifery sister whom I shall never forget. I realised from this experience what a difference having unconditional support could make and this led me to begin my doula journey. 01484 604851 07974 178 543 Send an email	Daz von Mickwitz Postnatal doula Huddersfield and district I have been doulaing for many years.
