From the enchanting realms of Swedish Lapland, where the midnight sun and Northern Lights cast their mesmerising glow, emerges Kicki, a beacon of hope and empowerment for expectant mothers. With her vast experience as a birth and postnatal doula, she’s been the guiding star for countless women and couples since 2002, ensuring they’re well-prepared and supported during the transformative journey of childbirth and early parenting.
But Kicki’s impact doesn’t stop at individual guidance. She was indeed instrumental in the #butnotmaternity campaign. As a birth doula and advocate for mothers and families, Kicki, in collaboration with the BirthBliss Academy and its dedicated doulas, fervently championed this campaign. Their collective efforts shone a light on the glaring inconsistencies in maternity care restrictions during the pandemic, especially when juxtaposed with other sectors that saw more lenient measures. Their advocacy was a clarion call for the rights and needs of mothers-to-be during an unprecedented time.
Beyond her advocacy, Kicki is a reservoir of knowledge in her field. She’s trained over 1,000 aspiring doulas and is a sought-after course facilitator. Her educational journey includes learning from luminaries like Sheila Kitzinger, Dr. Jack Newman, and the revered “grandmothers of doulas”, Penny Simkin and Phyllis Klaus. With a diploma in Professional Relaxation Therapy and a BSc from the Open University, her credentials are nothing short of stellar. She’s also a certified trainer, boasting the City & Guild PTLLS Award.
Her expertise hasn’t gone unnoticed. Kicki graced the TV show “Mum + One” on the Discovery Home & Health Channel and was lauded as the “Doula of the Year” in 2009 by Pregnancy & Birth Magazine and Doula UK.
As an author, Kicki’s insights are profound. She penned “The Secrets of Birth: What every woman should know about birth and motherhood” in 2015 and contributed to the Amazon #1 bestseller, “The Roar Behind the Silence”. Her latest work, “Supporting Survivors of Sexual Abuse Through Pregnancy and Childbirth”, is a testament to her deep empathy and understanding.
At her core, Kicki believes in personalised support, adaptable birth goals, and comprehensive education. She’s dedicated to arming women and families with genuine information, prepping them for the marvels of labour, birth, and the postnatal phase. With Kicki, you’re not just gaining a doula; you’re gaining a compassionate ally who understands and values your unique birthing aspirations.
