Blossom Doula Care
About Blossom Doula Care
Hi my name is Janine. I’ve been so lucky to work with many mums, dads, babies and their families over the past 30 years as a registered nurse specialising in obstetrics and as a trained mentor, birth and postpartum doula, educator and mum of 3. I’m truly passionate about supporting families as they grow and transition into their wonderful fourth trimester and settle into life as parents and as a new family. It’s a joy to see parents grow in confidence and enjoy this precious time surrounded by love, nourishment, nurturing care, practical help, and a kind guiding hand to support them. Caring for the new and healing mum is so important as she is able to rest and get to know her little one.
It’s a privilege to be part of this wonderful journey with them all.

Is This Normal? The Emotional Rollercoaster of Pregnancy and Motherhood.
Mental health during pregnancy and postpartum is something many mothers don’t expect to struggle with, but it's more common than we think. In this interview with Lotus Health and Psychology, we explore what perinatal mental health support really looks like, why anxiety is often overlooked, and how to take the first steps even when you feel like you’re running on empty. Whether you're expecting, newly postpartum, or years into motherhood, these insights might be the nudge you didn’t know you needed.

Helping Children Navigate Grief
Children experience grief differently than adults. They may not have the words to express their feelings, so they show them in other ways—through tears, anger, or even unexpected silliness. Some days, they may seem perfectly fine, and the next, a wave of sadness can hit them out of nowhere. It’s all part of how they process the big feelings they don’t fully understand yet.

The Support You Didn’t Know You Needed: How Compression Wear Supports Pregnancy and Postpartum Recovery
From pregnancy through to postpartum recovery, your body is constantly adapting, healing and rebuilding.

What is a Doula?
Today, a doula is typically someone who acts as a hub of support, referrals and resources for a person during a major life transition, usually related to birth. Doulas have a holistic approach that considers both mental and physical well-being. Services vary significantly but can include emotional reassurance, information based on scientific evidence, and comfort techniques like massage and nourishing food. The role is not medical, and doulas cannot treat, diagnose or cure any disease.
