Jo Thompson

Postnatal and Infant Feeding Doula based in Cambridgeshire

Hello!

I’m Jo, thanks for visiting my website! I offer postnatal and Infant feeding support across Cambridgeshire as well as birth, 4th trimester and breastfeeding preparation sessions virtually and in person.

I believe there is a doula out there for everyone. Pregnancy, child birth and the first weeks and months with your new baby are sacred and I would love nothing more than to walk this path with you, support you in the way that you need and create a safe space for you to absorb this time and spread your wings as you emerge as a parent, mother, father.

I am an experienced Breastfeeding Counsellor and Postnatal Doula who is recognised with Doula UK.  You can read more about me, my training, experience, qualifications and the path that led to becoming a doula in the CPD section on this site.

Testimonials

I met Jo when my son was 5 days old at a breastfeeding support group as I was struggling in the first few days of feeding and needed help. From the moment I met Jo, I could see how caring she was and passionate about all things feeding. I went to a different group 2 days later for more support where Jo volunteered and continued to go there for support and the social side for months after. Jo gave me advice on changing positions, pumping through my son having to go onto high-calorie milk due to a heart condition and also him having heart surgery at 4 months. Our breastfeeding journey has come to an end after nearly 19 months, and I am so grateful I met Jo as I honestly think without her knowledge, support and genuine passion for feeding I would have given up in those early days.

Jo is nothing short of a completely exceptional woman. She was born to support women and this shines through in absolutely everything she does. Her love, care and attention to your well-being is honestly, second to none. Her depth of knowledge, calming presence and attention to every detail that matters to you, is incredible. Jo explores avenues that you may not have even known were an option, yet somehow you never feel like you’re not in the driving seat. One of the things that struck me so much about Jo, is how much she wants you to have the best possible experience, and she never stopped fighting for us and our baby, even when we lost our voice. For anybody reading this who is considering Jo as their Doula, my simple advice would be do not hesitate, to be in Jo’s company is to be in the presence of something truly special.

Zoe Brown
Mum of Jacob, Henry & Albie

Jo did such a wonderful job looking after both baby and parents during our time together. You can tell that this is more than just a job for Jo - she is such a caring person that being a doula was likely not a choice: she had to be one. We will forever be grateful for the work she did, even if we were jealous of her magic abilities to put our daughter to sleep.
