About Me

My photo
Virginia Doula
I am living my dream while working with mums and babies. I see mums when they are 34 weeks pregnant and then come to their homes the minute she goes into labour and I stay for the full duration of her labour and after the birth I help her with the breast feeding. I do another visit after the birth so see that all is well and help where I can. I take calls from the mum if she has any questions. I am passionate about my work as a doula and I care and love all my families that I work with. Once you have been at a birth you are part of the family and feel a big part of the new babies life. You can contact me on 033 3433389 or 084507218 or on my other email davidginny@mweb.co.za
