Hi

I’m Kirstie, and I love everything to do with pregnancy, birth, the postnatal period and yoga. I have a wonderful daughter who is 3 years old and an 12 year old step son. I’m married to Steve and we all live in Chelmsford, Essex.

I've been practicing yoga for over 20 years and love to share my practice with pregnant and postnatal people. I love to see the happy, relaxed faces after class, and to hear how people have been relieved of aches and pains. These classes are also really important to me, as parents often get to know one another, stay in touch and meet up, I know first hand that peer support when you're a new parent is essential.

I am the Chair for Mid and South Essex Maternity and Neonatal Voices Partnership and I am passionate about your voice being heard, your opinions and experiences are essential to the smooth running of the maternity system. I also have a lot of other voluntary roles, I'm a breastfeeding peer supporter and I work with Health Watch Essex as a Maternity Patient Partner.

I worked as a nanny for various babies when I left college but then decided to try working in London in finance for a while, I got caught up in London life and stayed there for 15 years. After feeling very unfulfilled for the majority of this time I was thrilled to be given the opportunity to do what I love, working as a yoga teacher and doula, combining these two loves whenever possible.

If you're interested in my services as a doula, please do take a look at my website https://www.breathebirthyoga.co.uk

If you have any questions at all please do get in touch

Thank you for reading and I hope to meet you soon x
