Doula Mentor

I first came across Samantha through a home birth Facebook group she runs, the Home  Birth Support Group UK, I saw the amazing woman centred support and information she offers, all on her own time, so when I saw her name on the Doula UK Mentor list it was a no brainer.

I later learned of all the community projects she is involved in, contributing to her wide breadth of experience across the field of pregnancy, birth and parenthood.

As a mentee it instantly felt right, she is laid back, grounded and knowledgable and I’m so excited to walk the beginnings of my Doula journey beside her.

When I saw Sam’s warm, smiling face on her website, I knew that I wanted her for my doula mentor. She is warm hearted without being sentimental, practical and real.  I am so glad I found her and she wants to be my mentor.

Thank you, Sam.

‘I have been part of Samantha’s Homebirth Facebook page – Home Birth Support Group UK, for over a year. I found myself drawn to her comments and guidance in the group.   She is so passionate about women’s choice and so knowledgeable. 

I feel like she has very similar views to me and always felt inspired by her and the way she helped women in the group. 

I knew before I did my Doula training I would ask her if she would be my mentor when I completed my course. 

I was over the moon that Samantha agreed to be my mentor and already I feel I have benefited by having her by my side.’
