About Me


Hi, my name is Lily, thank you so much for considering me to be part of your families special journey.

Let me tell you a little about myself, I originate from a small town in East Yorkshire, England but have been calling Canada home for the past 10 years. I have worked as a restaurant server for many years starting my work experience at Walt Disney World Florida, this is where I met my husband, we both love to travel and have been lucky enough to travel the world together. We found ourselves putting down roots in Calgary and recently moving to Cochrane AB.

My interest in becoming a Doula began after the birth of my first child, and I was fortunate when pregnant with my second, a friend had recently qualified as a Doula and she offered to support my family postpartum. This was a wonderful experience for me, having that extra support, a calm, compassionate and nurturing presence during my 4th trimester completely changed my view on my previous experience of postpartum. This experience ignited my passion to fulfill my dream to become a Doula, to give evidence based support to families navigating a precious, unpredictable and often vulnerable time. It is my dream that every family should have the same feeling of total support that I felt.

I would love to meet you, maybe a walk, a coffee and a chat to explore how I can support your growing family, I can’t wait to hear from you!

Testimonials

If you are looking for a Doula who is kind, supportive, compassionate and reliable, the Lily is your woman. Not only is she a wonderful mummy to her own two boys, she is also like a "second mummy" to mine. Lily formed an amazing bond with my son so easily and naturally, as she has such a calming and caring influence. She also knows exactly how to calm me down if needed! I genuinely don't know what we would do without her.


-Laura Levitt 

Lily is an amazing support to me and my family over the past year. Her caring, kind nature is what we all love so much about her. She is supportive and understanding in any situation and when she feels something is beyond her knowledge, she goes above and beyond to find the answer I need. I have 5 children, aging between 9 months and 11 years old. Lily was a huge support in the months leading up to my baby's premature birth and beyond. Whilst I was in the NICU with my baby, Lily was kind enough to make hot meals and bring them to my family home. She is selfless, and I will never find the words to thank her for all she does.
