Helen was born in a UK hospital, on a snowy spring morning under a Libra Full Moon. Her passion for normal physiological birth began with her first pregnancy, where she intuitively knew that homebirth was right for her and that she would have a girl.

Helen then trained with Rhea Dempsey (in 2003) to become a birth attendant. That same year she gave birth at home for the second time, to a boy, with a Lotus birth.

Helen's first memory of yoga is of her mum teaching her uncle how to do a headstand on the beach one summer. She started to practice consistently and attend regular classes in her mid 20s.

Helen practised yoga throughout her pregnancies, and after 15 years of her own home practice, finally trained as a yoga teacher, of postures, breathwork and meditation.

Helen's intuition, pragmatic spirituality and quiet presence, inform her work and practice, both as a doula and as a yoga teacher.
