Hi, I’m Oli!

 

A very grateful Yoga instructor & Birth Doula living in the quirky town of Stroud.
 

​I have  been involved in helping families, either nannying or teaching children since very early i my career, I love their energy and approach to life. I am also a huge Yoga enthusiast and a strong believer in self development work. I ended up finding Yoga to be a more grounding and wholesome profession and changed my direction entirely, wanting to help others prepare for parenthood (still keeping my love of movement).

​

In 2018, I flew to India solo with my traveller's backpack keen to learn. I completed my training in Hatha & Pregnancy Yoga and from there YogiOli was born.

​

Through supporting so many of my clients with different issues that cropped up through their pregnancy, it became apparent that I was doing more than just teaching yoga I was DOULAING. When I took my training to become a qualified Birth Doula  I wanted to be able to hold space for parents to feel empowered, safe, and heard.

​

As a Birth Worker, I am supportive, compassionate, dynamic and inclusive. I believe that every person should be born into the world with love and nurture and as a doula, I believe I provide the foundation for my clients to unlock that within themselves. I am an active advocate and member of the LGBT+ community and work with families which include parents, guardians, foster parents, children, chosen family, siblings or grandparents who identify as LGBTQ+.
 

What I love about my work today is seeing a person blossom into a parent. There is nothing more humbling and sacred than witnessing parenting with devotion; it is the highest form of bhakti yoga.
