Welcome to Doula Days.
Supporting you in the days before, during and after the birth of your baby
Tal Granger
Supporting families in Hertfordshire, North London and surrounding areas
I have a degree (BA Hons) from the University of Leeds in Child Development, Education and Culture, and have spent the past decade working in a special educational needs school. After having two children myself, with very different births, I decided to train as a Doula to help other women, birthing people and their families during what is undoubtably one of the most life changing experiences you can go through.
Why Hire a Doula?
“If a doula were a drug, it would be unethical not to use it” - Dr. Marshall Klaus, neonatalogist
A Doula is a trained, non-medical professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and educational support to women and birthing people before, during and after childbirth, in order to facilitate the best possible birth experience.
Give birth your way.
Women and birthing people who use a Doula are more likely to have a natural, physiological birth- without assistance such as forceps or ventouse, or a caesarean birth.
Shorten your labour.
Having a Doula with you during childbirth can decrease the length of your labour by up to 25%.
Reduce the likelihood of your need for pain medication.
Women and birthing people who have a Doula are less likely to require medication for pain management.
My Services
Birth Package.
The birth package means I’ll be with you throughout your entire pregnancy - before labour, during it and after. I’ll provide continuous support during your pregnancy, join you and your partner for the duration of labour and birth, and help you afterwards with breastfeeding and the postnatal period.
Postnatal Package.
My postnatal package is designed to offer you emotional and practical support following the birth of your baby by empowering your family to make the best decisions for you. I will offer ideas, advice, tips and encouragement in the comfort of your own home, as well as providing a supportive, non-judgemental listening ear.
