My name is Sophie Armstrong and I am a certified doula in birth and postpartum at Birth Hero. I am French, I live on the Sunshine Coast in Australia with my husband Sam and our two beautiful girls, Sadie and Pia.
From two blue lines to babe in arms, I’ve got you!
Did you know that going through pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period is like entering an alternate universe? As a mom myself, I realized how crucial it is for us ladies to have some solid support during this monumental transition to motherhood. Every hero needs a mentor, right?
During my own journey, I saw a severe lack of consistent care and heard so many horror stories about childbirth from my friends, as well as so much shame, guilt and regret. And let’s not forget society’s expectation for us to bounce back like superheroes just weeks after giving birth!
All this got me super passionate about supporting women through this amazing yet challenging time. So, I started my doula training with the awesome Vicki Hobbs at Doula Training Academy and created my unique birth and postpartum support business with a fresh take.
My ultimate goal is to make sure every woman and her partner feel confident, informed, and excited about their birth experience. I want them to look back on it with all the good feels and memories. Because let’s be real, bringing a little human into the world is one wild and crazy ride, but with the right support, it can be a blast!
What I can offer:
– Birth coaching to prepare you and give all the resources you need to get ready and be comfortable with your choices
– Hypnobirthing and relaxation techniques to keep you calm during your birth and beyond
– Birth mapping, breastfeeding and postpartum planning to help you achieve your goals
– Birth partner coaching to make sure you have the best birth partner with you and a winning team for your birth
– Physical and emotional support during your labor and birth (+ on-call 37 weeks onwards)
– Birth debrief and postpartum care to support you after your birth and help you restore your body
– Guidance and coaching on juggling new priorities, connecting with your partner, coming to terms with your new identity, going back to work to help you adjust to your new reality
