Doula south-east London?

[weasle]

I am thinking of hiring a doula for the birth of dc3, due in May. I am planning a home birth. DH is fantastic, but may not be able to leave work as soon as I go into labour, and my parents and in laws will be away for a bit around my due date. All my friends have small children so difficult to ask them to come and help. A doula seemed a good idea to support me or help with ds1 and 2.

But I can't seem to find one near here. Have looked at the doula uk site, but all seem to be north london or south west london.

Anyone could recommend one in SE london?

TIA

Anyone?

Bumping, but beginning to think it's not the done thing around here

thanks both, will contact you lia and delia

Have a look at one of these:

It's always worth interviewing more than one Doula before you decide who you are going with.

Hello,

Maybe I can help. I live in Bermondsey, and am doing my Doula training with Nurturing Birth in March. I am a Mum to a 22 month little boy, and I've had previous experience of helping a friend with her contractions, and with postnatal care too.
If you feel comfortable you can give me a call. Helping you during your labour would be a valuable experience for me.
