Supportive Postnatal Care for You and Your Baby
If you’re looking for a trusted, experienced doula in Reigate, I’d love to help. I’m Donna from Postnatal Helping Hands, and I provide calm, practical one-to-one postnatal support to families across Reigate and the surrounding areas.
Whether you’re adjusting to life with your first baby or navigating the early days with a growing family, I’ll help you rest, recover, and feel confident at home — with support that’s tailored to your needs and delivered with kindness.
Supporting families in Reigate and beyond
I regularly work with new parents in Reigate, Redhill, Earlswood, South Park, and nearby towns and villages. I’m familiar with the postnatal services provided by East Surrey Hospital, local health visitor teams, breastfeeding support groups, and Reigate’s vibrant community of baby classes and drop-ins.
When you’re ready to venture out, I can even help you connect with these local resources — or simply walk with you to your first group for that extra bit of reassurance.
What my postnatal doula service in Reigate includes
No two families are the same, which is why I shape my visits around you. Whether you need rest, advice, hands-on help, or emotional support, I adapt to your day and your energy.

Feeding support – Breastfeeding, bottle-feeding or expressing — I offer practical, non-judgemental support to help you feel comfortable and confident.

Practical help around the house – I’ll take care of everyday tasks like folding baby clothes, preparing simple meals, and tidying up, giving you time to rest and bond with your baby.

Guidance with newborn care – I offer gentle support with settling, safe sleep, babywearing, winding, bathing, and learning your baby’s cues.
-
Emotional support – Whether you need a chat, a cry, or just quiet company, I’ll meet you where you are emotionally and provide calm, steady reassurance.
-
Overnight doula support in Reigate – If you need rest, I offer overnight support where I care for your baby between feeds so you can get uninterrupted sleep.
A local example from Reigate
I recently supported a family in Reigate whose baby was born a few weeks early. Mum was feeling nervous about handling everything on her own once her partner returned to work. Over several weeks, I visited during the day — helping with feeding support, settling techniques, and light household tasks so she could nap and recover.
We also took gentle walks through Priory Park, building her confidence with the pram and helping her feel ready to face the outside world again. Her words: “You gave me back my confidence, and that changed everything.”
