Doula and antenatal support in Norfolk
Feel empowered and held through your birth journey
I'm Em McSawley, a doula, pregnancy yoga teacher and mum offering holistic support across Norwich and Norfolk.
Let's chat about your birth

Pregnancy, birth and the early weeks with your baby are powerful, personal experiences–but they can also feel overwhelming, rushed, and uncertain.
As a doula, pregnancy yoga teacher and mum based in Norwich, I believe birth can be powerful, raw, transformative – and it can absolutely be done your way. My approach combines evidence-based knowledge with breathwork, movement, mindset tools and emotional support, honouring you as a whole person.
