About Me

Harriet is a UK-trained physician who moved to Los Angeles in 2008. A mother of three, two born in the UK and one in the USA, she now works as a birth doula and pregnancy coach in the Los Angeles area, where supporting families through pregnancy and birth is truly her calling.

Drawing on both her medical training and her own experience of motherhood, Harriet is also the author of "Pregnancy and Birth Made Calm: The Evidence-Based Guide for a Safe, Healthy Pregnancy and a Positive Birth Experience," now available in all formats. Her goal is to help families feel calm, informed, and confident as they prepare to welcome their little ones.

Practice Philosophy

Harriet's philosophy is rooted in helping those giving birth truly understand their bodies. She believes that pregnancy and birth are natural physiological processes, and that when birthing people know and understand their bodies, they can learn to trust them and have a positive birth experience, whatever that looks like for them.

Her approach is deeply individual, tailored to each client's unique needs and wishes. Drawing on her training as a physician, she pairs evidence-based knowledge with calm, personalized guidance, meeting each family exactly where they are.

Overall, her goal is to help you feel calm, informed, and confident, trusting your body and yourself as you move through pregnancy and birth toward the positive experience that's right for you.
