Hej!
Hello! I'm Elin.
​
Born and raised in Sweden, I now call the edge of the forest in Walthamstow, East London, my home. Here, I live with my great husband, our three lively children, and our loyal whippet.
As a birth and postnatal doula, I'm deeply passionate about empowering women to have births filled with confidence and self-trust. I firmly believe that every woman deserves a positive, transformative birth experience.
​
My own journey into motherhood was life-changing, inspiring me to dedicate my life to supporting other women during this incredible time.
​
Motherhood can sometimes feel isolating, which is why I'm here to offer unwavering support. From pregnancy through childbirth and into those early postnatal days, I strive to create a calm, reassuring environment for you. I'm also here to help you adjust to your new role as a mother and to support you in the postpartum period.
My Doula Training & Experience
I completed my Doula training with Kate Woods at Conscious Birthing in June 2022, and it was such an enlightening experience, covering everything in and around childbirth, evidence based and informative to trauma informed and holistic care, including techniques in pain management and remedies.
​
I also trained as a KG Hypnobirthing Teacher in November 2022 , which has given me a phenomenally inspiring and useful facet to my doula support. In learning hypnobirthing with me you can learn to release fear and build confidence and calm for birth. Feeling confident and calm during birth will help your body to work efficiently, releasing endorphins, your body’s natural anaesthetic.
You’re more likely to experience a calm birth and hypnobirthing can also
shorten the labour and reduce the need for pain relief.
​
I am a Body Ready Method Pro trainer as well. BRM is an evidence based approach to balance the body in preparation for birth . It draws on 'Spinning Babies' techniques, bio mechanical principles, observation and intuitive understanding, to encourage optimal foetal positioning for easier births through movement and alignment.
Furthermore I am a volunteer with Doulas Without Borders a charity that supports women with multiple disadvantage and financial hardship and I find it so rewarding being able to help women from all walks of life.
​
I speak fluent English and Swedish.
" Thanks Elin for all your support and always being there for us . "
"We can’t say enough! Thank you for all the tips and support you provided. Thank you Elin for being our doula, and being by our side when we don’t have family here, it means a lot"
