About your host:
I have been a doula since 2003. I have attended a variety of births and has learnt something new with each of them.
Most of my attention is focused in this specific field and I have done many workshop and courses to deepen my understanding and broaden my views regarding it.
I have trained with Pam England, author of the book Birthing From Within and creator of the Mentor and Doula programme of the same name and was the first mentor to hold these classes here in South Africa.
Last year I co-facilitated a training for other fellow South Africans to enrol in the Birthing From Within programme. I am currently apprenticing with Pam England to become an international Birthing From Within doula and mentor facilitator.
