 Hi, My name is Lisa Head and I live in Flitwick in Bedfordshire, I have a great family which keeps me very busy. I have three children, Alex is the eldest, Sam is in the middle, and Evie is my little one. Every day brings a new adventure and even on the most taxing days there is always something to laugh about. I have always been interested in pregnancy and childbirth, and I have considered taking a midwifery course many times. I had not heard about doulas until my friend asked me to support her in her child's birth. I realised this was the profession I had always been looking for. Looking back on my childbirth experiences brings back fond memories, but I wish I had been better informed and supported. My doula training and experience has ensured I have a huge amount of knowledge in the birth process, including all forms of pain relief, both natural and medical. I don't profess to know all the answers. I believe there is no right or wrong way, and it is my job to inform you of all the possibilities and options available, so you can make informed decisions that are best for you. I have trained with Nurturing Birth which is a Doula UK accredited course, I am a member of Doula UK and I have undertaken their mentored registration process to enhance my skills as a birth doula. I am still in the process of being assessed as a postnatal doula at the moment. As a Doula I am under no obligation to complete this registration but I feel the help I will receive from my mentor will be invaluable. To find out more about this process please contact Doula UK at www.doula.org.uk , or if you are interested in becoming a doula yourself, please go to www.nurturingbirth.co.uk    |
