Your Birth.
Your Power.
Your Team.
Independent Midwifery + Doula Care, together. Because you've spent your whole life refusing to settle — why start now?
Your baby, seconds old, resting on your chest.
Your partner is crying. (Let's be honest, they're absolutely crying.) You're not though — you're just glowing with the kind of calm, powerful, holy-moly-I-just-did-that energy that only comes from knowing you were fully supported every single step of the way.
(Not in a fluorescent-lit room with a midwife who doesn't know your name. Obviously.)
This isn't wishful thinking. It's the lived experience of families we care for across Yorkshire and Greater Manchester, time and time again.
You've read the books. Binged the podcasts. Your instincts are sharp. You're just missing the team that actually matches your energy. Hi. That's us.
An independent midwife and a doula walked into a birth space… and changed everything.
We're Bailey and Hannah — and we deliberately choose to work together because we've seen what happens when a woman has both of us in her corner. Spoiler: it's really, really good.
We're redefining maternity care for women across Yorkshire and Greater Manchester who are done with the conveyor belt and ready for something built around them.
No agenda. No strangers. No “sorry, I've never met you before, you're 8cm.” Just us. Just you. Just brilliant.
This care is right for you if…
- —You want a birth that feels powerful — not like something that happened to you
- —You want clinical expertise that is genuinely, deeply personal — not a 10-minute appointment with eye contact avoidance
- —You want to own your experience — with real support while you do it
- —You value evidence and intuition equally — and want guides who do too
- —You want your partner to feel like a hero, not a spare part
- —Whether it's your first or your fourth, you want this to feel exactly like yours
Bailey
Independent Midwife · Your Private Midwife · Yorkshire
A decade in midwifery, a zero-tolerance policy for rushed care, and a deep conviction that you deserve better than a stranger at your birth. Extended appointments in your home, clinical expertise without the policy-driven no's, and genuinely personalised care — because you're not a textbook case.
Hannah
Doula & Women's Coach · Journey Ahead · Greater Manchester
The woman you want in your corner when you need to trust yourself most. Hannah brings deep, continuous, emotionally intelligent support — helping you navigate the system with confidence, clarity, and the kind of prep that means you walk into birth feeling like the main character. Because you are.
Here's what maternity care usually looks like.
(We're not throwing shade. We're just saying it out loud so you don't have to.)
The Standard Route
- Appointment 1: Midwife A
- Appointment 2: Midwife B (who is Midwife A?)
- Appointment 3: Who even knows anymore
- Your birth: A midwife you've never met, juggling four other rooms
- Postnatal: Another new face with no idea what happened
- Your birth preferences: politely ignored at the door
With Bailey & Hannah
- The same faces from week 20 to week six postpartum
- Extended home appointments across Yorkshire & Greater Manchester
- A midwife who knows your brew preferences by week 30
- Zero strangers at your birth — just your trusted team
- Postnatal care that holds you as tightly as it held your bump
- Your birth preferences: actually honoured. Imagine that.
You wouldn't hire a wedding photographer without stalking their Instagram first.
So why would you hand the most transformational, vulnerable, powerful experience of your life to a rotating cast of strangers who can't remember your name, let alone where you're planning to birth?
“You wouldn't. And with us, you absolutely don't have to.”
Your body. Your baby. Your rules. Yorkshire & Greater Manchester — we've got you.
Support from the first trimester to the fourth.
Pregnancy
This is where we lay the foundations — not just for birth, but for your whole sense of self. Bespoke guidance, grounded insight, and unwavering support from both of us, whether you're in a farmhouse in the Dales or a townhouse in Manchester.
Long unhurried home appointments. A birth plan that's actually yours. Clinical expertise that never once asks you to shrink yourself.
Birth
When it's time, we show up — fully. Continuous, intuitive doula support alongside clinical, physiology-first midwifery care. Think fairy lights and music, not fluorescent hospital ceilings with a ticking clock.
Our families across Yorkshire and Greater Manchester consistently experience outcomes well above local averages. Not because we control the process — because the right support genuinely changes everything.
Postnatal
When your baby arrives, our support doesn't stop — it deepens. Because not a single person should be left figuring it out alone on their kitchen floor at 3am.
Midwifery: clinical recovery, newborn checks, feeding. Doula: emotional processing, practical support, someone who genuinely gives a damn. Up to four weeks. No cold turkey.
We could talk about ourselves all day — but they do it better.
Real words. No embellishment needed.
I cannot imagine having a better team. Individually they're both incredible, but together they're magic. The implicit understanding and deep trust they share made me feel profoundly safe. Together they wove a complete, perfect net of wisdom and love.
Throughout every stage — pregnancy, birth and postpartum — I felt cared for, listened to and safe. I genuinely believe my birth would've ended very differently without them. I couldn't imagine going through this journey without these two.
The most cared for I've ever felt. Together they made the perfect environment for birth to unfold through education, knowledge, and genuine care. I never felt like “just another patient.” I felt supported, listened to, and like I actually mattered.
The Elite Power Package
You're not paying for “maternity care.” You're investing in a pregnancy where you're not just another number, a birth where you're the undisputed main character, and a postnatal period where someone actually shows up. Probably less than your kitchen renovation. Way more important.
Antenatal Appointments
Midwifery and doula appointments from 20 weeks across Yorkshire & Greater Manchester — pregnancy health, mindset work and comprehensive education.
Full Birth Kit
Comfort measures, birth pool, and a fully stocked medical kit including gas & air. Delivered. Set up. Ready. All you have to do is breathe and be brilliant.
24/7 Support (Yes, Really)
Not a helpline. Not a bot. Not a 3-working-day callback. Us. In your pocket. Whenever you need reassurance, validation, or someone who gets it.
Biomechanics & Chiro
Sessions with a pregnancy chiropractor — because birth is physical, and your body deserves to be set up for success. Not just your mindset. All of you.
My Pocket Doula® App
6 months of access to your 24/7 birth bestie — prep audios, advocacy scripts, postpartum guides and guided relaxations. All in your hands.
Up to 4 Weeks Postnatal
Daily visits for the first five days including NIPE for your baby. The kind of support most people don't even know exists — and once they have it, can never imagine being without.
