What Clients Are Saying
“There is nothing she didn’t do for me, and she allowed me to be in my baby bubble, whilst everything else was dealt with. I cannot thank Aurelia enough.”
“Aurelia’s calming energy and presence brought me so much comfort. I will always be grateful to her for the love, care, and dedication she poured into this journey.”
“Having a postnatal doula was the best decision I made around my maternity care. I felt able to take a conscious approach to my postnatal period in the way that felt right to me.”
Postnatal Doula Packages & Prices
These are some of my most popular packages I offer, but most packages are bespoke to meet your family’s needs.
Before purchasing any service, I offer a free 30 minute discovery call. This will allow you to meet me virtually and ensure we are a right fit before we go forward and work together. It is super important you find the right doula for you, as we will be spending a lot of time together and sharing the most intimate beautiful journey.
Full terms and conditions of the package will be on your contract and shared after our discovery call, if you decide to go with me. Payment plans can be discussed to spread the cost.
What areas do you cover?
I am based near Colchester, on the Essex/Suffolk border and offer my doula services to all surrounding areas. I cover Essex, Suffolk and parts of Norfolk and Cambridgeshire (within 1 hour drive of North Colchester). If you are outside these areas, or abroad, but feel I may be the doula for you then please do get in touch and we can see if it is possible for me to support you virtually.
