We have opened our first dedicated Doula Cafe space in Accrington Arndale Centre, Lancashire. This space is dedicated for expectant and new parents to gather for support, whether through our groups or drop in clinics with our Doulas or feeding support specialists.
The Doula cafe is a special play cafe with specialist support available if needed, or just come play. We have some soft play and Montessori type toys. We also have an art station for all to use.
Our Doula Cafe ™️ model is available, with our support, to branch across the country with our training and mentoring.
See below for current groups. Check our services and classes for more of what we do.
