Nurturing Births, Empowering Women
Welcome to Mother Gaia, where support for women and families are my top priority.
Welcome!
Hello my lovely!
I’m Katy, a trauma-informed doula, holistic therapist, and fierce advocate for women’s birth rights. After experiencing both the highs and deep challenges of birth firsthand, I made it my mission to support women in reclaiming their power.
Whether through birth planning, emotional support, or healing touch, I’m here to help you feel seen, heard, and truly prepared for your journey into motherhood. You deserve a birth that feels safe, supported, and empowering—
and I’m here to walk that path with you.
There’s another way to prepare for birth
You’ve done the antenatal classes.
You’ve read the books.
But something still doesn’t sit right.
Maybe your last birth left you feeling unheard, unseen, and overwhelmed.
Maybe you're anxious this time around, unsure how to trust the system – or yourself.
Maybe you're searching for something deeper, more aligned… something that actually speaks to you.
You want to feel safe, informed, and empowered.
You want preparation that honours your experience, not dismisses it.
And most of all?
You want to know it’s possible to have a birth that feels healing – not just ‘okay’.
This space is for you, lovely.

I believe every woman deserves to feel heard, respected, and powerful in her choices, and I’m here to walk that path with you.

Let’s make sure you step into birth feeling informed, confident, and fully supported.

Pregnancy is full of questions—I’m here to help you find the answers. My

Whether it’s understanding your birth options, navigating the system, or preparing for the postpartum period, I’ll help you feel informed, confident, and in control. This isn’t just about birth prep—it’s about stepping into motherhood with knowledge, trust, and power.

Frequently Asked Questions
Question 1: What can I expect from an online birth support chat?
My online birth support chats are safe, confidential spaces where you can speak freely about your fears, past experiences, and hopes for your next birth. You’ll be heard without judgement, and I’ll offer trauma-informed guidance, practical tools, and emotional reassurance. Whether you're creating a birth plan, debriefing a previous experience, or just need support, this space is for you.
Question 2: Is a birth debrief really helpful if my first birth was years ago?
Absolutely. Birth trauma can stay with us for years, especially when it hasn’t been fully acknowledged or processed. An online birth debrief is a gentle, supportive space to explore what happened, how it made you feel, and how it may still be affecting you. Together, we’ll begin untangling the emotional knots so you can move forward with more clarity and confidence.
Question 3: How does an online birth support plan session work?
We’ll meet via Zoom and create a personalised, 1-page birth support plan that reflects your unique needs and preferences. This includes how you want to be supported emotionally and practically in labour, what your red flags are, and what your support team needs to know about your past experience. It’s simple, powerful, and helps you feel in control and heard.
Question 4: Can I still access support even if I don’t live locally?
Yes! All of my online services are available no matter where you live. Whether you're in North Yorkshire or New Zealand, you can book in for support sessions, birth planning chats, or debriefs. Time zones are flexible—I’ll do my best to accommodate your schedule because you deserve the support, wherever you are.
