Heyy beautiful momma, I’m Sonia founder of The Elevated Mother, Post Partum Doula, Mothers Healing and Transformational coach and Mothers Blessing facilitator.

Before we get into the juicy details about me I would like you to take a minute to take a deep breath into your amazingness as a mother whether pregnant or have your children I see just how truly incredible you are!

OK great I hope that brought you some calm. I’m Sonia mother to 5 with 24 years mothering experience I am deeply passionate and committed to holding space for mothers during pregnancy, post partum and beyond as I have first hand experience of all different kinds of mothering and have also educated myself on what is the most effective way to hold space, support, heal and transform mothers from conception to late motherhood.

During my motherhood journey I have experienced the highest highs and the lowest lows going through and overcoming post partum depression, health anxiety, intrusive thoughts, imposter syndrome, parenting comparison, suicidal thoughts, loss, marriage difficulties, miscarriage and generally being tested to my limits I am proud and gladly say that I have healed and transformed through all of this and am now bringing THE BEST OF MYSELF to you and for you through my post partum doula support and the other services I also offer.

I am so deeply passionate about your wellbeing during your sacred post partum journey having experienced 5 post partum periods myself and combining this with my 24 years of mothering experience it has taught me what will enhance this time the most for you and your baby.

Following the birth of my 3rd child, which was an utterly traumatizing emergency cesarean which resulted in post traumatic stress and post partum anxiety, this shattered my whole world and so I understand profoundly the rollercoaster that is the post partum journey and what a vulnerable time this is for mothers.

I believe that during post partum is the time in a woman’s life where she gets to be held the most and traditionally this is what took place a few generations ago, after a woman gave birth she would be held and supported by her female “village” of mothers, sisters, aunts, nieces etc who would come and take care of her needs, see to the baby, prepare meals and carry out household duties.

I have supported over 200 mothers to enhance their wellbeing during pregnancy and post partum and am an expert in energetic healing and guidance for women with womb health conditions and post birth recovery, as well as mothers coaching and support.

Nothing in this world brings me more joy than seeing my children laugh and smile and when I am fully present with them it is deeply fulfilling alongside this I love taking a long bath relaxing in my own company soaking the day away, I guess with that being said I am somewhere between finding joy in the magical moments with my children and counting down the hours until bedtime (can you relate?) the paradox is wild!
