The Full Journey

From your first prenatal meeting to your first month at home - from €3,900, saving over €200

The ultimate full spectrum care, I’m there for you and with you all the way. From before the birth, during the birth, and through those precious first weeks at home. One consistent, trusted person by your side from the very beginning. We start with prenatal meetings to prepare you for birth with confidence and calm. I am on call from 37 weeks and stay with you throughout labour and birth for as long as you need. Then I follow you home, supporting your recovery, your baby, and your whole family through the first month.

Everything is built around what you need. Some families want more hands-on newborn care. Others need meals, rest, and a calm presence. Most need a little of everything. This is for the family who wants to feel genuinely held, from the first contraction to the moment they find their feet.

Birth Support

Preparation, presence, and continuity of care on the day that matters most - 2 antenatal meetings, 5 weeks on call, 2 postpartum visits for €1,700

Being on call for your birth means I am fully committed to you from 37 weeks. I am there when labour begins, I stay with you all the way through, and I visit you in the days after to help you process and settle in. In the weeks before your due date, we meet to prepare together, working through your birth preferences, comfort techniques, what to expect, and how your birth partner can best support you. So that when the moment comes, you already know me, and you already feel safe.

Postpartum Support

Loving, hands-on care through the fourth trimester. Since 2020 I have been supporting new families through those tender, intense first weeks and months and I know how much it matters to have the right person in your corner. Postpartum support looks different for every family. A visit might mean holding the baby while you sleep, cooking a nourishing meal, helping you navigate a feeding challenge, or simply sitting with you while you find your words. It is practical, emotional, and always led by what you need most that day. I offer single visits and discounted packages.

The First Week package €750, saving €50 5 day visits across your first week home, Monday to Friday.

Steady, consistent presence as you begin to find your footing as a family.

The First Month package €2,400, saving €160 16 visits flexibly scheduled across four weeks, built around your life and what you need most.

The Six Weeks Journey, from €3,600, saving €240 Around 24 visits across six weeks, fully tailored to your family's rhythm and needs. For families who want to feel genuinely held through the whole postpartum period. A discovery call is included to build your personal care plan together.

Families who book a postpartum package have the option to convert some of their visits to overnight support, based on availability and on request. Get in touch to discuss.

Single postpartum visit - €160.

Each visit is 3-4 hours. The care given is based on your family’s needs.

Gift Vouchers - Give the gift of support

Available for any amount. A beautiful baby shower gift, a birthday present, or simply a way of saying "I've got you."
