If there is one thing we shouldn’t have a ‘go with the flow’ attitude towards, it’s birth, yet here is me thinking ‘naaah, it’s just another day of the year’.. WRONG. It a deeply empowering experience that should be honoured with the upmost respect and educating yourself is vital. After really reflecting on my own birth, it made me realise how much work we have to do when it comes to birthing women and the environment around them.

Becoming a Doula came to the fore front to me and played around in my mind for a few months - it was important to me that I was serious about doing this for a career and not just swept up in the high that is childbirth. Safe to say, I knew it was for me when my little one was 9 months and I enrolled in Vicki Hobbs Doula Academy.

This course was incredible and filled me with the tools and skills needed to be all of the things for birthing women and I aim to continue growing my studies to offer women more services in the future.

It is my purpose, as a Doula, to help you feel advocated for, nurtured, seen, heard and supported. However you want to birth, whether that is a hospital birth, home birth, in a shopping centre (jokes, let’s not do that!) I got you. I have taken time to make sure I have up to date resources for your viewing and here to help guide you to the birth you desire. Drawing on my knowledge about the process of birth and how the maternity system works, I am here to hold space for you in your chosen birth environment and help create a space where you feel safe and your voice feels amplified. Having a doula has been statistically shown to lower intervention while helping women feel overall more satisfied with their birth which is what we are a society should be working towards.

I know that for most women, investing in a Doula is an easier decision then it can be for the fellas. I can promise you boys, that I am here to make the whole journey of becoming parents easier for you both! I want to help support you to have a positive birth that you both think back on fondly while helping nourish the mama so that you have more time to dote on your new bundle of joy. It is a lot on one persons shoulders to provide both practical (massage, sips of water, help with moving positions) and emotional (providing encouragement, intimate touch) during birth so let me ease some of the pressure that you can be truly present in one of the most wonderful moments of your life.

I am based in the Adl Hills and happy to service up to 20km radius.

It is so important to me that you feel comfortable and safe with your choy name is Marley Blunt. I am wife to Tyron, Mama to Jamie and slave to my Pug, Frankie. Alongside these roles I am a heartfelt doula who is hopelessly obsessed with all things pregnancy, birth, post part and being a mother in general. I had my son in 2021 and truly wish I had connected with the person I aim to be for women today.
