Postpartum Doula in Cayman
serving clients in the cayman islands and virtually
Welcome to Doula Cove!
I’m Ceridwen, a postpartum doula, lactation counselor, and mother who’s passionate about supporting women through one of the most transformative times of their lives. While I’m based in the Cayman Islands, I help mothers near and far to navigate the physical, emotional, and spiritual journey of becoming a mother.
Becoming a mother myself was both messy and magical in ways I could never have expected. I know firsthand how overwhelming and confusing the transition to motherhood can be. That’s why I created Doula Cove: to offer a safe, nurturing space where you can feel truly supported, empowered, and understood as you navigate this life-changing experience.
I’m here to walk alongside you, helping you through any challenges, whether it’s breastfeeding struggles, emotional support, or navigating the early days of motherhood. My approach combines my professional training with a deep respect for your inner wisdom, so you can trust yourself and move through this journey with confidence.
Whether you’re preparing for postpartum or already in the thick of it, I’m here to provide support, resources, and gentle guidance to help you feel empowered and supported during this time.
Supporting Your Postpartum Journey
When I became a mother, no one truly prepared me for the overwhelming challenges that came with postpartum. Even with a supportive partner and a healthy baby, I found myself struggling with exhaustion, breastfeeding issues, loneliness, and postpartum anxiety and depression. I kept wondering, "Why didn't anyone tell me how hard this would be?"
Through perseverance and a lot of support, I made it through, but I wish I’d had the resources to make the transition smoother. That’s why I created Doula Cove: to offer new mothers the guidance, validation, and tools I wish I’d had.
I understand how important it is to feel supported and empowered during this time. My goal is to help you navigate your own postpartum journey with confidence, offering not only the practical advice you need but also the emotional and mental support that can make all the difference.
If you're feeling overwhelmed, uncertain, or just needing someone to listen and help you trust your instincts, I’m here for you.
Doula Cove supports new moms through the emotional, physical, and spiritual transitions of early motherhood.
My goal is to help mothers feel seen, heard, and deeply supported as they navigate the complexities of postpartum life. I believe in the power of compassionate care and the importance of empowering mothers to trust their instincts.
Doula cove’s unique approach to postpartum wellness
My approach to doula work begins with holding space for your whole experience of motherhood to be seen, heard, and honored - but it doesn’t end there. I blend evidence-based knowledge with heart-centered care to support you through not just the physical recovery of postpartum but also the emotional and spiritual transformation that comes with being a new mother.
Here’s How I support your smoother postpartum transition…
Blending evidence-based knowledge with person-Centered Care
I combine up-to-date, research-backed information with compassionate, non-judgmental support. Whether it’s breastfeeding, sleep, or postpartum mental health, I provide tools and resources tailored to your unique needs, while honoring your instincts and choices.
Holding space for the emotional and spiritual journey of motherhood
Becoming a mother isn’t just about welcoming a baby - it’s a profound shift transition as you transition into motherhood. I hold space for you to process the emotional and spiritual changes of matrescence, whilst offering practical guidance - all without judgment, to help you feel validated, supported, and empowered.
Building systems of community Care to support postpartum mothers
I believe maternal health isn’t just personal; it’s deeply connected to our communities. My work acknowledges this broader influence by helping you to build supportive relationships, connect you to with other resources, and feel part of a larger community that uplifts and sustains you.

A Glimpse Into My Life Beyond Doula Cove
I consider myself lucky to have many joys in life - from creative practices like music, dance, and painting, to the simple pleasure of spending time with my family. My husband, son, and I are blessed to call the Cayman Islands home, and most days you can find me at the beach. Connecting with nature is a big part of my life, and its rhythms inspire how I support mothers: with presence, calm, and care.
