About Emma

Welcome!

Emma intentionally provides prenatal and postpartum support to the mother, the birthing person, the family. Her role is to guide and inform you as you welcome your baby and navigate the transition into parenthood. She does this in a nonintrusive way through a variety of services that are tailored to your families needs.

Education, information, care and respect are things she values and aims to bring this to you as she assists to empower you to birth and parent your child. She brings her knowledge and experience of welcoming babies in a home or hospital setting or for caring for the family unit during the postpartum period to you in a caring manor.

Emma has a Masters in Sociology Health and Illness with a focus on maternal health. She is a trained Birth and Postpartum Doula, a Lactation Educator ( CLCE) and a CPR/First Aid instructor. She has volunteered with projects in developing countries,  provided birth support and care to homeless pregnant mothers in LA and was one of the hosts of the west LA doula meet up.

She is a mother of two, neither of whom were born in her home country of Ireland. Is now located in Lisbon, Portugal and you can often find her and her family exploring nature, eating good food or simply enjoying a coffee with friends.

Here in Lisbon, you can find Emma hosting family meet-ups, teaching a class or waiting patiently for the arrival of a new baby and to go support the family.
