Postnatal Doula | Justine Walsh

Doula Jussy – A little bit about me

Hi. I’m Justine. As one of nine children, caregiving has always been second nature to me. My grandmother was a nanny in the 1940s, and I followed in her footsteps. Her kind and loving spirit has greatly influenced me.

My journey in childcare has been one of connection, compassion, and deep understanding. For a few decades now I’ve had the privilege of working with families across the UK and the United States, supporting parents and nurturing children of all ages.

Becoming a postnatal doula has been a natural continuation on my career path, allowing me to be fully present with families as they navigate the early days of parenthood. Whether it’s promoting rest, preparing nourishing meals, offering practical support, or simply offering a listening ear. My approach is centred on holding a calm, trusting and reassuring space. (I love what I do. I am here for you in your 4th trimester and postnatal journey)

Located in London, serving London and New York. If you think we might be a good fit, I’d love to hear from you. We can arrange a chat, by video call or meet in person.

I look forward to meeting you soon.

Justine (Doula Jussy)
