Having a new baby is a very exciting time but it can also be overwhelming and daunting. It's the one job that comes with no training and it's the most important job anyone can undertake!
​
Nowadays, people can often live far away from the family support that is so often needed to help with this transition, which is where Blissful Bubs comes in! We are your fairy godmothers, here to ease the load and allow you to understand that your gut instincts are valid and to trust them. Our friendly, non-judgemental approach aims to help you feel more confident and believe in yourself as parents.

Feeding baby
Feeding baby can be a challenging skill to master. As a doula, I am a La Leche League peer support councillor and a specialist breastfeeding supporter. I am also on route to becoming an IBCLC.
For more specialised support, Blissful Bubs also works with a fantastic lactation consultant and can help you to book an antenatal session or visit after birth.
Twins support
We know the absolute blessing of finding out you're having one baby, let alone two! Along with excitement often comes anxiety about pregnancy, labour, breastfeeding, finances and just how are you physically going to manage two babies???
I have had lots of experience with twins and have a number of packages available to help. They all start with a call where you can ask as many questions as you need to feel confident you are making the right choice.
Buy online
As well as some fantastic baby essentials, you can shop online for our packages. These are a great option for gifting support to parents in need or ordering baby shower invites.
Parents wishing to discuss support options are encouraged to contact me.
