End of Life Doula Care
Holistic support, compassion, and guidance through life’s final chapter.
As your Death Doula (also known as an End-of-Life Doula), I am a non-medical professional dedicated to providing holistic support to individuals nearing the end of their lives and to their families. I walk alongside you, offering:
-
Emotional & Spiritual Support
A safe space for open conversations about death, helping to address fears and foster peace.
-
End-of-Life Planning
Assistance with advance care directives, legacy work, and practical considerations, ensuring your wishes are honoured.
-
Vigil Support
A consistent, calm presence during the active dying phase, offering comfort and reassurance.
-
Advocacy
So that your wishes are heard and respected, empowering you through the process.
-
Caregiver Respite
Dedicated support and breaks for family members, understanding the immense demands of caregiving.
-
After-Death Body Care
Compassionate guidance and practical assistance for families wishing to engage in loving, hands-on care for their loved one's body after death.
I also facilitate Naming Ceremonies for Spirit Babies to acknowledge and validate precious lives lost through miscarriage, stillbirth, or early termination. These tender rituals provide a vital space for grief, meaning-making, and acknowledging the baby's unique place in the family's story.

Care of the Carers
Because those who care, also deserve care.
I understand the immense challenges carers face. My services support your well-being, helping you to manage stress, process anticipatory grief, and maintain balance through soul care practices, energy healing, and personalised remedies. I also offer dedicated support and breaks for family members, recognising the immense demands of caregiving.
Whether you are a family member or a professional carer, I welcome you to experience some time out for the soul with mindfulness practices, Reiki, Healing Touch or a personalised essential oil blend or flower essence.
