About The Barnes Doula
The Barnes Doula provides holistic support for expectant parents and families during pregnancy, birth, and the postnatal period. Certified through Kicki Hansard's Birth Bliss Academy, The Barnes Doula combines traditional doula care with complementary therapies tailored to each family's needs.
Services include pregnancy and postnatal acupuncture, aromatherapy and acupressure massage designed specifically for birth, and pre-natal yoga. The Barnes Doula has completed specialist training in aromatherapy, acupressure and massage for birth, bringing physical and emotional support to parents at every stage of their journey.
Beyond physical therapies, The Barnes Doula offers Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) techniques, including the Three-Step Rewind—an evidence-based approach to help expectant parents work through previous trauma and build confidence for their forthcoming birth.
Whether you're preparing for your first birth, navigating a subsequent pregnancy, or seeking support in the weeks and months after your baby arrives, The Barnes Doula focuses on helping you create a birth story you feel proud of. By addressing your hopes and fears, providing continuity of care, and drawing on both traditional and contemporary wellness practices, this service is designed for parents who want nurturing, informed, and protective support throughout one of life's most significant transitions.
