Jenna Rutherford birth doula Surrey

Hi I’m Jenna and I’m an experienced birth doula and pregnancy yoga teacher working in Surrey.

I’m here to help you create space and breathe mama.

Why the minimalist doula?

There is a lot of noise surrounding birth and motherhood, lots of voices and opinions and stories and to prepare for a positive experience it’s more about making space for your own voice and your own thoughts so you can feel confident to trust yourself to birth and mother your way.

‘Getting in contact with Jenna was one of the best decisions I have ever made. After two complicated and fairly traumatic hospital births I was extremely anxious about delivering my third baby. Jenna helped me to process the previous trauma and get myself in the best possible mental place before labour. She supported me through my panic on the day, and was a hugely reassuring presence for my husband. Thanks to Jenna, I had a swift, straightforward and redemptive home birth. The experience couldn’t have been better and we couldn’t have done it without her!’

So how can I support you?

What my Mamas say…

“Jenna was a wonderful doula throughout my pregnancy and the birth. Her positive and calm approach helped me stay focussed on the baby and she was by my side, taking deep breaths with me during contractions. I delivered VBAC successfully, quickly and happily. Thanks Jenna! x”

— Ting, mother of two lovely children

“Jenna was amazing! Emotionally she listened to how I was feeling and reassured me a lot. Physically she made me some delicious nourishing meals, looked after Ella so I could sleep...We also did some yoga together one session. Jenna’s style was very relaxed and she put me at ease very quickly. Jenna was a huge support to me after Ella arrived and felt like a big sister who knew what she was doing. It was so lovely to be taken care of when I felt so vulnerable.”

— Kate & beautiful Ella

“Jenna has been an absolute privilege to not only meet, but to have as my doula. I couldn’t have wished for anyone more perfect. She was so very nurturing and spiritual, yet down to earth...an absolute rock at a time when I felt very vulnerable. Words cannot describe the strength she pulled out of me, to create the birth experience I wanted. I sincerely wish she had been at all my births! My partner found her amazingly supportive and my children adored her! She will always hold a special place in our hearts and I can throughly recommend her...thank you Jenna! ”

“Jenna was the keystone to my amazing homebirth experience; her calming presence, loving support and experienced guidance was valued by all and made my daughter’s birth incredibly special and completely stress-free.’”
