South Wales Doula UK
Sue Gibson - Birthing and Post Natal Doula
About Me
I’m Sue, also known as the WyeDoula. I'm trained as a Birthing and Postnatal Doula and live in South Wales and have four grown up children. If you are reading this chances are you might be pregnant. If so, congratulations!
My fascination with childbirth started many years ago when a friend invited me to her home birth. She had an active labour, birthed in an upright position and I found it awe inspiring!
Up until then I had been terrified of childbirth. I came away thinking: “I could have a go at that!” I went on to marry a year later, and have my children with confidence, embracing the active childbirth principles I’d learnt from my friend.
​
Whilst giving support to another friend in labour, the midwife suggested I should become a doula. I was delighted to discover such a job existed and thus began my journey of supporting women through pregnancy, birth and beyond.
I trained with Nurturing Birth.
​I've supported many women on their birth journeys, and have found it rewarding to be invited back to help with subsequent pregnancies.
​
If you are interested in hiring me as a doula but don't live locally, some mothers have found a lot of benefit in connecting virtually. Contact me, to explore this as an option for you.
​
I offer postnatal support for mothers who would like care for the first few weeks after birth. I also support mums with older babies.
