Jessie here (Joseph's Mummy). Some of you may already be aware
that I'm a Doula although it's been that long since I've come
along to any meets I'm sure there are many that don't. Anyway
I wanted to share with you my website www.londondoulas.com as

will soon be adding another (Allie). I work as a Doula myself

I am a YogaBirth, Active Birth and Birthlight teacher and have
been teaching Pregnancy yoga and Post-natal mums and babies yoga
classes for about 20 years.
I already have mums who come from W9 to my classes which are held
just up the road near Queen's Park, NW6, but I am sure that it
would be useful for the mums in W9 to know about my classes.
I am also a fully qualified ante-natal teacher
and offer breastfeeding advice and support.
