We are the Team that makes up Greater Manchester Doulas CIC. The great thing about a collective is that we all bring our own knowledge and unique experiences to the table. So read on to hear more about what makes us who we are and the wisdom we each bring to GMD.
Elle • founding director & doula
Elle is one of our founding directors and a doula living in South Manchester with her kids, dogs, and cats. She is usually found crocheting or playing video games. Being a full spectrum doula is her true passion and purpose. She is also our resident placenta specialist and a breastfeeding peer supporter.
Lori • founding director & doula
Lori is a mum of two, our other founding director and a full spectrum doula living in South Manchester. She is a lover of women, rainbows, playing the piano, having adventures with her boys and of course all things to do with pregnancy, birth and motherhood. She is also a rewind practitioner and a babywearing peer supporter.
Amy • birth & postnatal doula
Amy is a sister, an Aunty and a birth and postnatal doula living in Old Trafford. She loves travelling and being outside in nature, but also loves curling up inside with a hot water bottle and a book. She likes to be independent and speak up for what she believes in.
Naomi • IBCLC lactation consultant
Naomi is a breastfeeding mother of two spirited children and an International Board Certified Lactation consultant (IBCLC). She is passionate about supporting women to create a postpartum that respects, supports and honours them as new mothers, for the first time or all over again.
