Picture this: you just gave birth, you're exhausted, overwhelmed, your body is starting to heal. Your partner will soon have to go back to work, leaving you with your baby.
In our modern world mothers are expected to juggle mental load, work, motherhood, chores and much more all while recovering from birth, but who's there to care for you ?
Through Light of a Doula, I offer postnatal care that brings calm and reassurance in this demanding chapter of your life. Together we create space for your emotions, your recovery, your voice.
Because you deserve to be mothered, respected and cared for. Because You matter.
Soften the transition
Pospartum Workshop
Prepare before birth... for the after
Becoming a parent deserves support, reverence, and care.
In this gentle 2-hours workshop, we shift the focus from just the birth… to what comes next. Together, we explore the real journey of postpartum: body changes, emotional waves, identity shifts, and the sacred process of Matrescence.
It focuses on what postpartum is really like and how to plan for recovery, support, and early parenthood in a realistic and compassionate way. You will leave with greater clarity, practical tools, and a clearer sense of what support might be helpful for you.
This is more than just preparation, It’s a way to honour the parent you're becoming.

Postpartum Care in Bristol
Mothering the mothers, with care, presence and kindness.
Postpartum isn’t just a few days after birth, it’s a whole season.
A season where you deserve to feel supported, nourished, and held, every step of the way. Whether you’re preparing for your fourth trimester or already in the heart of it, I’m here to offer real presence, care, warm food, and gentle guidance tailored to your needs.
Every journey is different. For families who want additional support after birth, I offer tailored postpartum doula services ranging from short-term guidance to more comprehensive support over several weeks or months.
Because postpartum isn’t one-size-fits-all. You deserve care that adapts to you.
Not sure which package would fit you best ?
Hi ! My name is Mary, I am a postpartum doula and mama of a little girl.
I deeply believe that mothers deserve to be seen, honoured and held. Not just on the day their baby is born, but every day after that, too !
While working for over 10 years in nurseries, I witnessed how often mothers were forgotten, expected to carry everything without support, without space, without rest. I knew something had to change.
That's why I created Light Of A Doula, a space where mothers are seen, heard and supported.
My approach is gentle, rooted in slow postpartum care and inspired by traditional wisdom from cultures that honour this sacred transition.
Through Light Of A Doula, I’m here to support your emotional wellbeing and offer presence, not pressure.
All a mother needs is healthy food, gentle care and good people around her.
![Motherhood hasn’t become easier,
it’s become quieter, lonelier, and heavier.
And still, no one talks about it.
If it feels like too much, that’s because it is.
You weren’t designed to hold all of this without rest, support, or care.
💫 As a postnatal doula, I support mothers and parents through the deep, raw, beautiful mess of postpartum.
Because healing needs more than time, it needs connection and love.
✨ I offer grounded and personalized support through 1:1 sessions and Postpartum preparation workshops.
