About Me
Hi, I'm Elodie.
A postnatal doula based in East London, supporting new families through the precious (and sometimes overwhelming) first weeks after birth.
My whole career has been about caring for people. I trained as a healthcare assistant in France, qualifying as an aide soignante in 2012 after a full-time, one-year training, and worked four years in France before bringing that experience to the UK, where I worked for eight years within the NHS in AAU and Cardiac ITU. In total I have over fourteen years of professional experience caring for people through their most vulnerable moments.
When I had my own son in 2021, despite having wonderful support from my partner, I still felt overwhelmed in those first weeks. I realised that even when you have love around you, the specific support a new mother needs is something different, and it's often simply not there.
That experience changed everything for me. I'm trained with Younique Postnatal, a Doula UK accredited provider focused exclusively on postnatal care. I'm currently building my practice as a mentored postnatal doula, working towards full Doula UK recognition, supported throughout by an experienced mentor, so every family I work with benefits from both my care and the guidance of an established practitioner.
I also offer my full support in French, so for French-speaking families in London, you'll have someone completely by your side in your own language.

To know me a bit more
Outside of my doula work
I'm a mum who loves food from every culture and has travelled widely before settling in East London. I find peace in nature and hiking. Recently I finally started something I'd wanted to do for a long time: learning to play the drums. One day I hope to play my favourite rock music on a stage. It will probably take years, but I love to dream.
Would you like to talk?
I'd love to hear about your family and how I might be able to support you.
