Hi, I’m HANNAH

DOULA / LIFE COACH / MUM OF 3 / FEMINIST

I care about birth - not just how it looks on the day, but how it lands in your body and life for decades to come. 

I’m a doula, coach and educator, and over the years I’ve supported a wide range of families across the UK through pregnancy, birth and the long, often underestimated transition into parenthood. I’ve worked across the full breadth of maternity care - NHS and independent, home and hospital, straightforward births and complex ones. I’ve seen first-hand how profoundly care, language and support shape outcomes.

What that experience has given me is discernment. I understand where guidelines help, and where they’re blunt instruments. I know how power moves in maternity systems, how fear creeps in, and how easily people can be talked out of trusting themselves at the exact moment they need it most.

I’m also neurospicy, which means my brain is wired for pattern spotting, deep focus, emotional attunement and seeing what’s actually going on beneath the surface.

I don’t believe birth is something you ‘get through’. I believe it’s something that leaves an imprint - on confidence, on trust in your body, on how you meet challenge and change years later. I’ve seen how being informed, regulated and supported changes how someone parents, works, advocates and inhabits themselves long into the future.

My Pocket Doula App® exists because I wanted to put that level of care, experience and nuance into people’s hands. Not to replace real-world support but as a steady, intelligent companion through one of life’s biggest thresholds.

I wholeheartedly believe…

I was put on this planet to DO THIS WORK. PERIOD.

I am here today, to change your path for the better. To walk alongside you. To offer knowledge and guidance. To listen and to hold your hand. To be your friend and your confidant. 

Think of My Pocket Doula App® as your no-nonsense bestie meets expert birth coach – except this time, you’re getting one of the UK’s top doulas and life coaches right in your pocket.

Packed with juicy, in-depth guidance, straight-talking reassurance, and all the good stuff you won’t find in your standard antenatal class, MPD is there for you at 3am, in your birth space, and through the wild ride of postpartum – because you deserve the best support, every step of the way.

What I bring to the table

LIVED KNOWLEDGE

don’t teach from theory alone - I teach from the floor of birth rooms, long antenatal sessions, postnatal kitchens and years of watching how systems actually behave when humans are vulnerable.

I’ve supported families through the full spectrum of maternity care - NHS, independent midwives, home birth, theatre, freebirth, complex birth, birth after loss. I understand how guidelines are written, how risk is framed and how care changes depends on postcode, practitioner, and confidence.

What lives inside My Pocket Doula App® isn’t recycled advice. It’s field tested insight - what works in real bodies, real institutions, real lives. Knowledge you can trust because it’s been used, questioned, and refined.

fire in my belly

This work isn’t neutral for me. 

I care, deeply, about how people are treated during birth, how power is weilded in maternity systems, and how often women are expected to accept less inofmration, less time and less respect at one of the most defining moments of their life.

My Pocket Doula App® exists because I’ve seen what happens when people are informed, regulated and supported - and the cost of when they’re not. Not as performance, not as a ‘perfect birth’, but as a foundation that echos forward into confidence, parenting, identiity and wellbeing.

Changing the world onebirth at a time isn’t a slogan here. It’s visible in outcomes, in feedback, in families who feel more grounded, more powerful and more able to advocate for themselves long after the birth room is packed away.

This is work with teeth - and heart - and results to match.

BIRTH ROOM TO BOARDROOM

Before birth work, I spent a decade as a director in advertising - working in high pressure environments, navigating deadlines, power dynamics, leadership expectations and identity in professional spaces. 

Alongside birth work, I have coached CEOs, directors, entrepreneurs and founders through major transitions - parenthood, burnout, leadership shuifts, and redefining success. I understand ambition, responsibility, cognitive load, and what it’s like to hold many roles at once.

This is why my work bridges birth and life beyond it. I don’t ask you to choose between being deeply capable and deeply human. I help you integrate both - so the version of you that gives birth can also return to paid work, lead, create and evolve on your own terms.
