The Birth Base
Doula Packages
Hi I'm Kristina! What can I doula for you?
As a doula, I provide continuous emotional, informational, and practical support throughout pregnancy, birth, and beyond — from wherever I am, whenever you need me.
I'm hugely passionate about helping you feel calm, confident, and prepared for birth. I want you to be realistic too — it can be hard to advocate for what you want within the medical maternity model, but with the right knowledge and support behind you, it is possible.
Right now, my doula support is offered virtually — over the phone and via WhatsApp — rather than attending births in person. That means you still get the same knowledge, reassurance, and advocacy-minded support, just without me walking through the door on the day.
Please note: my doula packages (below) are only available once we've worked together for at least one hour of hypnobirthing. This means I already know you, your history and what you're hoping for, so the support I give you afterwards is properly personal rather than starting from scratch. If we haven't met yet, book a hypnobirthing session to get started.
I'd highly recommend reading my Google reviews to see my client’s own words of their experience with me and to get a good sense of the sort of person I am.
What I can offer...
-
A knowledgeable, calming voice on the phone or WhatsApp, whenever you need it
-
Help thinking through decisions, questions, or worries about pregnancy, birth or those early weeks
-
An expert in physiological birth and hypnobirthing techniques
-
Someone who understands the NHS maternity system and how to navigate it
-
A neutral, well-trained advocate who can help you find the words to speak up for yourself
-
Continuity — the same familiar, trusted person with you throughout, rather than a stranger
All of this is aimed at helping you feel informed, supported and confident going into your birth — even when I'm not in the room with you.
Why doula style support works
Research on doula support links it to things like reduced rates of caesarean and instrumental birth, less need for pain relief, shorter labours, and higher satisfaction with the birth experience.
While I'm currently offering that support remotely rather than in the room with you, clients consistently tell me that simply having a knowledgeable, trusted person to call or message — someone who knows their history and isn't rushed — makes a real difference to how calm and in control they feel throughout pregnancy and birth.
The Birth Base
Doula Support
Both of my doula style packages open up once you've completed at least one hour of hypnobirthing with me (£45 per hour online (in person sessions also available). That first session means I already know you and your history, so everything after it is personal, joined-up support rather than starting cold.
Doula in your pocket
£99
If you'd like to benefit from ongoing and dedicated continuity of care with me during your pregnancy, I can become a doula in your pocket. That means you'll have dedicated, on going and speedy WhatsApp support from me, starting from the date of booking until you are 6 weeks postpartum. This ensures a guaranteed reply within 2 hours, Monday–Friday, 9am–8pm. It's like having a knowledgeable friend on speed-dial through pregnancy, birth, and those early days.
1:1 Doula Phone Calls
From £12
For clients who've already worked with me — book a call whenever you need to talk something through, prep for an appointment, or make sense of what's going on. Often bookable at short notice.
If you’d like to book a 1:1 phone chat, you can book a 15 minute call for £12.
'Joining The Birth Base was definitely the best investment of my pregnancy. Labour had been a big fear of mine for a long time, but throughout the course I learnt so much and ended up feeling confident, calm and empowered about my birth. Although it didn’t go to ‘plan’ I definitely felt empowered to be able to make informed choices about my birth and Kristina was at the end of the phone whenever I needed her, advocating for me the whole time I was in hospital and for that we will be forever grateful as it made all the difference to us. Kristina has built a wonderful community of women who support each other and regularly meet up, it is also amazing that she will support you for as long as you need, a true gem!'
Katie Darvell, Client
'Kristina has been there throughout most of my pregnancy from when we started looking into hypnobirthing after our 12 week scan right through to now in the 4th trimester. Her knowledge and support has been invaluable and continues to be. She's always at the end of the phone to support and check in and organises mama meet ups regularly for mums and mums to be. Hypnobirthing made a huge difference to my birthing experience, even though it didn't go the way I envisioned in the end. We cannot recommend Kristina & her fantastic business enough :)' Emma Gray, Client
