Virtual Doula Support

Pregnancy can feel overwhelming, especially when you’re trying to make big decisions with limited time and conflicting advice.

You might be looking for support to navigate all the options as you prepare for birth.
Or you may have something specific on your mind right now that you want clarity and reassurance about.

I can help either way.

Power Hours

This focused 1 or 2 hour session is designed to help you visualise and plan your birth using evidence base research and real life experience.

• Explore your hopes, preferences and any worries in a calm, supportive space

Ongoing Virtual Doula Support

Imagine having someone in your corner throughout pregnancy — who already knows your story, your preferences and the things you're worried about.

Someone you can turn to when an appointment throws you a curveball, you're suddenly being asked to make a decision, or you simply need to hear, “OK — here's what your options actually are.”

I offer virtual doula support across the UK, giving you personalised pregnancy and birth preparation, evidence-based information, practical tools and ongoing support — without needing an in-person doula at your birth.

Check out the different packages and choose which one suits you best

Sometimes you don't need another Google search, another Facebook opinion or another leaflet.

You need someone who knows you, understands what's important to you, and can help you make sense of your options when pregnancy or birth throws something unexpected your way.

Virtual doula support gives you personalised pregnancy and birth preparation, evidence-based information, practical tools and ongoing support — without needing an in-person doula at your birth.

Whether you're preparing for your first baby, planning a different experience after a difficult birth, facing decisions about induction or C-section, or simply want to feel properly prepared, you don't have to figure it all out on your own.

Customer review

Cathie is a wonderful doula! I had such a great experience with her. Our sessions were all virtual (over the phone, email and messages). She is really lovely and very knowledgeable. I always felt informed, supported and at ease talking to her. I had a home birth and the way she jumped into action giving me and my family advice while we waited for the midwives to arrive was fantastic. Thanks to her I was able to advocate for myself and so were my family. She really knows her stuff and as someone who likes to know as much as possible this was really helpful to me. In the lead up to birth she sent me many fantastic resources such as audio for relaxation and hypnobirthing, information about acupressure, movements for preparing for labour and so much more. She was truly invaluable and I'd recommend her very much. After the birth she continued to check in and provide support to me and gave more great advice and resources. All in all she couldn't have provided better support. She made a real difference to my birth experience and I'm really grateful to have had her services. 10/10!

Not sure which support is right for you?

You don't need to work it out alone. If you're unsure which package best fits where you are in pregnancy, what you're worried about or the level of support you'd like, get in touch and I'll help you choose.

You can call straight away, book in an enquiry call at a time that suits you, or simply fill out my contact form and I'll be in touch as soon as I can,

Wondering how a Virtual Doula actually works?

What actually is a Virtual Doula?

A Virtual Doula gives you personalised pregnancy, birth and decision-making support without needing to be physically in the room with you. We work together during pregnancy by video call and WhatsApp, and depending on your package, I can also be there virtually during labour and birth.

How can you help during labour if you're not actually there

If your package includes virtual birth support, you'll contact me when things begin and we'll decide together when you need me. Support can include messaging, phone or video calls, and your birth partner can contact me too. You're not expected to sit on a Zoom call for 14 hours!

What if I need you in the middle of the night?

Packages that include on-call birth support are designed for exactly that – babies aren't terribly respectful of office hours. I'll explain exactly how on-call support works before your on-call period begins, so both you and your partner know when and how to contact me.

What if I don't want support during labour?

You don't have to. Some people want a doula beside them virtually during birth; others mainly want personalised preparation, help understanding their choices and someone knowledgeable to talk things through with during pregnancy. That's why I offer different levels of virtual support rather than one enormous package for everyone.

Can you support me with an induction or Caesarean birth?

Yes. Virtual doula support isn't only for spontaneous vaginal birth. I can support you to prepare for an induction, planned Caesarean or an unexpected change of plan, helping you understand your options, think through your preferences and feel involved in decisions about your birth.

What if I'm not sure which package I need?
You don't need to work that out alone. Tell me where you are in pregnancy, what you're worried about and what kind of support you're looking for, and I can help you decide which option makes sense. And if what you actually need is a one-off Power Hour rather than a doula package, I'll tell you that too.

Virtual doula support might be new to you – so here are the answers to the questions people often have before deciding whether it's right for them.

Can I book you if I don't live in Liverpool?

Yes! That's one of the lovely things about virtual support. My in-person doula work is based around Liverpool and the North West, but Virtual Doula support is available across the UK.

Is a Virtual Doula worth it if I already have a birth partner?

Absolutely. I'm not there to replace your birth partner – I'm there to support both of you. Your partner knows you; I know birth. I can give them ideas for positions, comfort measures and ways to support you, help you both understand what's happening and be another calm head when decisions need to be made.

Still have a question?

You don't need to be ready to book. If you're wondering whether virtual doula support would work for your pregnancy or birth, get in touch and tell me what's going on.
