Supporting, guiding and nurturing you through pregnancy, birth and beyond.

Wellbeing for Mothers

Hello, I’m Rebecca—a certified birth and postnatal doula, birth educator, and massage therapist based in Frome, Somerset. I’m here to offer down-to-earth, practical, and emotional support for families through pregnancy, birth, and the postnatal period.

Whether you’re looking for one-to-one birth support, antenatal guidance (in person or online), hands-on postnatal care, or a soothing postnatal massage, my role is to help you feel supported, informed, and confident in your journey.

I’ve worked with many families, each with their own unique experiences and choices. What I’ve seen time and time again is that having the right support can make all the difference—birth and early parenthood can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to navigate it alone.

The postnatal period, in particular, can feel like a whirlwind. The shift into new motherhood is huge, and it’s easy to put your own needs to the bottom of the list. That’s where I step in—to make sure you’re cared for too. Whether that’s through practical postnatal help, emotional reassurance, nutritious home-cooked meals, or restorative massage, my goal is to help you recover, recharge, and settle into this new chapter feeling nurtured and confident.

Sadly, we’ve lost the kind of traditional postnatal care that used to be part of village life. But you don’t have to do this alone. Let me be part of your support network—someone you can lean on, trust, and turn to in those early weeks and beyond.

If you’re based in Frome or the surrounding areas (within an hour’s travel) and would like to chat about how I can support you, I’d love to hear from you.

 Every woman deserves continuity of support, every woman deserves a doula.

  • Rebecca’s Advocacy and Support Made All the Difference I contacted Rebecca early in my pregnancy, and from that very first interaction, she became an irreplaceable source of guidance, support, and empowerment. She listened deeply to my concerns, never dismissing even the smallest worry, and took the time to discuss all of my options in detail. What truly stood out was her unwavering commitment to supporting any decisions I made—without judgement or hesitation. Rebecca’s advocacy gave me the confidence to trust my instincts and make informed choices about my pregnancy and birth. Rebecca’s presence during my labour was nothing short of extraordinary. Her calm and grounded energy helped me stay focused and in control, even during the most challenging moments. She encouraged me to centre myself through breathing techniques that kept me calm and present, and her incredible massaging technique provided immense relief during my contractions. Thanks to Rebecca’s hands-on support, I was able to get through labour without pain relief—something I never thought possible. Rebecca didn’t just offer physical support—she was also my fiercest advocate throughout the entire process. Whether it was ensuring my preferences were respected or reminding me of my strength when doubts crept in, she had an incredible way of making me feel both protected and empowered. She created a space where I felt heard, respected, and confident in my ability to bring my baby into the world on my terms. I will be forever grateful to Rebecca for ensuring I had such a positive birth experience and for playing a crucial role in the safe delivery of my baby girl. Her advocacy, skill, and compassionate care made all the difference, and I truly believe every woman deserves someone like Rebecca by her side during this transformative time.

  • "The support Rebecca provided to me during the birth of my daughter was invaluable to me. She let me lead everything but also guided and supported me. Rebecca is genuinely caring and invested in my birth the moment I asked her to be my doula. Her calm and compassionate nature made the birth process so much more comfortable for me and my family. Rebecca supported and enriched the experience from my pregnancy to holding my amazing newborn in my arms."

  • "My partner and I had the pleasure of being supported by Rebecca as a Postpartum Doula, we quickly noticed the huge difference between days with Rebecca's help compared to our regular days. She brought calmness into our home, and a sense of peace within ourselves. The warmth of her presence comforted us. The thought of her coming in the morning made a bad night seem almost manageable. Her delicious food was like a huge hug when we most needed it!

  • Rebecca’s Meals Were a Lifesaver Having delicious meals delivered by Rebecca was one of the best decisions we made during those early postnatal months. As a breastfeeding mother, I was constantly hungry, and having nourishing, home-cooked food readily available was an absolute game-changer. Before the meal deliveries began, Rebecca took the time to discuss our nutritional preferences and specific needs. This meant every dish she prepared was not only tailored to my breastfeeding demands but also perfectly suited to our tastes. Her meals were packed with wholesome ingredients, giving me the energy and nutrients I needed to recover and care for my baby. Rebecca’s support in this area wasn’t just practical—it brought so much relief to our household. With one less thing to worry about, it eliminated a major source of tension between me and my partner, who was already juggling his own responsibilities during this time. Instead of stressing over meal prep or resorting to quick, unhealthy options, we were able to enjoy balanced, hearty meals together, which made those hectic days feel just a little bit easier. Rebecca’s thoughtful, nourishing approach to food went beyond convenience—it was a gesture of care that truly supported us during such a vulnerable and demanding period. I can’t recommend her meal delivery service highly enough; it’s one of those small decisions that made an enormous difference in our postpartum experience.

  • Rebecca supported us following the birth of my second baby, and she played a completely essential role in those early days and weeks as we adjusted to a family of four. She has such a brilliant and rare set of skills: she's completely expert in her work and incredibly knowledgeable; warm; empathetic; both emotionally and practically intelligent; a natural with babies, children, and new mothers; able to guide and help in the gentlest and kindest way possible; amazingly intuitive about what new mothers and babies need, from hands-on help to emotional support. She transformed our time at home after the arrival of our daughter and ensured it was a precious, happy and relaxed time spent making sunny memories. The food she cooked was beyond delicious and helped so much with my recovery from a c section after an exhausting and often stressful pregnancy. I feel phenomenally lucky to have had her with us and would wholeheartedly recommend her as a doula.

Birth Doula

Giving birth is one of the most incredible and life-changing experiences you’ll ever have. As your doula, I’m here to make sure you feel safe, supported, and in control throughout.

I provide practical guidance, emotional reassurance, and hands-on support, helping you trust your instincts and make informed choices that feel right for you. Whether it’s offering comfort in labour, advocating for your wishes, or simply being there when you need me, my goal is to help you approach birth with calm and confidence.

Every birth is unique, and you deserve to feel heard, respected, and empowered every step of the way. I’m here to support you—so you can focus on welcoming your baby with strength and ease.

Postpartum Doula

The early days with a new baby can be overwhelming, emotional, and exhausting—but you don’t have to do it alone. As your postpartum doula, I provide gentle, practical, and emotional support, helping you ease into this new chapter with confidence and calm.

Whether it’s your first baby or your third, every parent deserves to be nurtured and cared for. I offer a reassuring presence, a listening ear, and hands-on help, creating a space where you can rest, recover, and focus on bonding with your baby.

Every family’s needs are different, and my support is always tailored to you—whether that means helping with newborn care, preparing nourishing meals, or simply holding space for you to feel heard and supported.

I’m here to help you feel strong, rested, and well-supported as you navigate the early days of parenthood. 💛

Postpartum Cooking

Food plays a vital role in healing and recovery after birth. What your body needs postpartum is very different from what it needed during pregnancy or before. The right nourishment can support your recovery, boost your energy, and help you feel your best in the months after birth.

As a certified nutritional health coach, I specialise in creating wholesome, delicious meals designed specifically for new mothers. My meals are warming, nutrient-dense, and easy to digest, helping to restore strength, balance hormones, and support breastfeeding if needed.

Let me take care of the cooking, so you can focus on rest, recovery, and bonding with your baby—while feeling nourished from the inside out.

Let’s talk about how we can work together to give you a safe, empowered, positive birthing and postpartum experience.
