In reverence of women, birth and motherhood
ABOUT ME
Hi! I'm Rosie Rick
Artist, Mother, Doula
​
I work with women from pre-conception through to postpartum to assist in the
profound transition that is the birth of a new baby.
My offerings range from a simple catch up, to full spectrum doula support
throughout pregnancy to birth and postpartum.
I help mothers and their families decide what kind of birth and care is right for them,
and support them in their journey towards their goals for a healthy and thriving baby and family.
If you're interested in working with me, book in a chat and we can go over
my offerings and see if we make a good fit for each other.
I believe​ that no woman should be alone on the journey into motherhood.
I am here to not only make the path easier, but make it enjoyable and expansive.

I believe in radical care.
​
This looks like:
- Honouring the birthing woman during big life transitions
- Resourcing her with all the information she needs to make the choices that are right for her and her family
- Looking after her needs, from nourishing food to healing touch, emotional support and
tools and tips to thrive in early motherhood
- Advocating for her wellbeing within systems of healthcare and postpartum support
- Resourcing her with stories, podcasts, book recommendations,
communities and healers for her to feel connected, informed and inspired.
- Supporting her in her parenting choices and helping her manage the onslaught of 'advice'.
- Helping her navigate new relationship dynamics postpartum
-Helping her come back to her well self after birth by supporting restoration and rest through massage, nutrition and sleep
My background is in visual arts, community engagement, social change and producing. I have produced creative projects with visionary artists and companies, from community-led events to short films, stage shows and touring performance. I look back on my career in the arts and see that I have been a doula all along, helping to birth projects, ideas and visions into the world. This work requires emotional commitment, and I am here to stay.
​
I did my doula training with Angel Phoenix Gallo, through the Dynamo Doula Program.
I am currently studying psychotherapy and holistic postpartum care with Innate Traditions.
​
I had a very profound pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience that has helped me feel much closer to my authentic self.
I have emerged empowered to be a confident and purposeful mother,
driven to value my energetic contribution as a mother.
I have been through many moons of personal reflection, unearthing the truth of my purpose,
and it is my deep honour to be offering myself to you in this way.
​
My job is to keep you safe, held and supported throughout your pregnancy, birth and postpartum journey.
I live a slow life in the country with my husband and baby girl, and work with women online from around the world.
I value creativity, community, healing and working in harmony with nature.
Are you excited about the potential for personal rebirth and transformation as you cross the threshold into motherhood?
I am too!
​
I love to walk alongside women as we both travel through life and motherhood together
