South London Doula & Private Midwife Jay

Meet Your Doula

Pronouns: she/her

I’m a Senior Registered Midwife and trained Doula and Birth Keeper, supporting families across London through pregnancy, birth and the early postnatal period.

With over eight years of experience within the NHS and five years in local communities in South London, I combine clinical insight with holistic, relationship-centred care, ensuring you feel informed, respected and fully involved in every decision that shapes your journey into parenthood.

Alongside my clinical background, my Caribbean upbringing has deeply shaped the way I approach care; with an emphasis on warmth, attentive listening and holding space for families in a way that feels both respectful and affirming. I am often described as calm, intuitive and a strong listener, bringing a grounding presence into the birth space. Many of the families I’ve supported also value my hands-on comfort measures during labour, including massage, breathing and visualisation techniques like hypno-birthing and other physical support techniques.

Working within the healthcare system has also deepened my awareness of the unequal and often challenging experiences faced by those from marginalised and vulnerable communities. As a Doula and Birth Keeper, I am committed to contributing to a culture where every birthing person feels heard, safe and empowered within their care.

I have been learning, training and growing my skills as an advocate for promoting and improving maternal and newborn health outcomes and have a strong desire to co-curate birthing experiences that make this shared journey your own.

When you’re ready, I would be honoured to walk alongside you.

  • Experienced in antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal care

  • Advocacy for informed decision-making in maternity care

  • Culturally safe support for families across South London communities.
