Hello/Helô.
I am Tomoko / Tomoko dw i.
Hello/Helô!
My name is Tomoko. I am a Birth Doula and Postnatal Doula.
I currently live near Aberaeron after living in Guernsey in the Channel Islands, Bangkok in Thailand and England.
I am from Japan and have a husband from England and 3 boys from 8 to 15 years old.
With my eldest, I had an amazing home birth experience thanks to lovely community midwives, a Birth Doula, my partner and family. I will never forget when we all shared the calm and magical moment of birth.
My middle and youngest sons were born at the midwifery led unit in a local hospital. These were also lovely birth experiences thanks to all the support I was given.
Although I myself had a natural birth, it does NOT mean I only support mothers and birthing people with natural births.
I truly believe it is most important that each mother and birthing person make their own choice as it is YOUR Birth Journey.
As I was given lots of warm and kind support when I gave birth, it is now my turn to dedicate myself to support mothers-to-be, mothers, birthing people and families to have well-supported, warm birth experiences and beyond, whatever their choices are.
I love being a mother of my 3 wonderful children (and 1 dog) - we laugh, cry and, of course, sometimes have arguments as well. I do love spending those colourful moments with them.
I also love walking in the beautiful Welsh nature, going to the sea and spending time nurturing my creativity too.

“Tomoko is such a very caring person. Just can't thank her enough.”
Tomoko was very gentle all the time and I got exactly the level of support I needed without being disturbed from my own little birthing world.
