About
Lucy McCaslin
@newbeginnings.doula
Nobody tells you the newborn weeks are the hardest bit. Everyone's focused on the birth, then you're home, sore, running on toast and wondering if it's normal to cry at a washing-up bowl. (It is.)
I'm Lucy, a doula who gets that, and I support you before, during and after your baby arrives.
Before the birth: I offer antenatal doula support, specialising in hypnobirthing. I'll help you feel calm, informed and confident, so you can make decisions that feel right for you and have a birth partner in your corner who knows what to do. I also run pregnancy relaxation classes, to give you the time and space each week to actually remember you're pregnant. Because life is so busy, sometimes the baby is the last one to get your attention.
After the birth: my Fourth Trimester Queen Packages offer 6 or 12 weeks of hands-on support in your own home. That covers feeding, rest and recovery, plus the stuff people tiptoe around, like what's actually happening to your body and your head. All of it comes with honest, judgement-free chat.
If you want someone who'll laugh with you, tell you the truth and cheer you on, I'd love to hear from you.
