Hi lovely, I’m Peninah, I’m currently training with Rhea Dempsey to be a doula, and it would be such an honour to walk alongside you through this journey of pregnancy, birth, and the transformation into motherhood/parenthood. This is such a sacred and life-changing time and I'd love to be one of your team to hold you through it. With a grounding presence and calm reassurance for all the emotions and unknowns that can arise along the way, as well as helping you bring the excitement of dreaming into being the life you, your partner and your village are creating.
I’m also a certified Zen Thai Shiatsu practitioner and love cooking nourishing food, both of which I’d love to weave into the support I offer.
For the past six years I’ve been facilitating women’s circles, reflective and embodiment workshops, and retreats, creating and holding space for people moving through major life transitions with warmth, ritual, movement and deep listening.
I'd love to co-create a birth-space with you that feels calm, safe, and magical, where you and your partner can soften, feel held, and move through this transformative birth, feeling connected, calm and joyous and empowered. Whether at home or in hospital, I’d love to support you and your birthing team in welcoming your baby into the world with presence, love and joy.
With love,
Peninah
