Janet Gray Bump and Baby
Postnatal Doula
I have been working with families since 1991, when I qualified from Norland College and worked as a nanny in London for eight years.
My son was born in 2001, followed by my daughter in 2002 and we move to Hampshire.
I became a full-time mum looking after our two children, two border terriers, a cat and our small holding of chickens, sheep, pigs and a pony. When my daughter was settled in primary school I decided to go back to work as a postnatal doula to provide the support to parents in the early weeks and months during the transition into parenthood. When I became a mum for the first and second time I really felt I needed some support in the home, an extra set of hands to help with family life as I had no family around to support me.
This is what I aim to do for families I support.
