Hey, I’m Esme.

Esme Kirk London doula offering calm, nurturing pregnancy and postpartum support

I am a birth & postnatal doula as well as a holistic therapist working in North East London.

About me:

After working for many years as a massage therapist and facialist I decided to follow my desire to help women through the huge life transition that is birth and postpartum.

I bring my down-to-earth and caring nature to all the work I do, and I would love to help you feel supported and held (emotionally and physically!) through your journey.
