Tricia Nugent
Birth & Postpartum Support
Hi my name is Tricia and I am passionate about supporting women and their families through pregnancy, birth and the post partum period. I live in Dublin with my husband and three children, Satires 7 years, Liam 5 years and Cara who is 3. I offer postpartum support to those living in Dublin and parts of Kildare, Wicklow and Meath.
Following the birth of my first child I became passionate about supporting other parents through pregnancy birth and the postnatal period. Since 2013 I have completed several different courses including Gentlebirth Instructor Training, Dona Birth Doula Training, Dona Post Partum Doula Training, Pregnancy Massage, Baby Yoga Teacher Training, Trageschule Babywearing Consultant Training, Slingababy Babywearing Consultant Training and Birth Trauma Training. As a postpartum doula I bring the skills and knowledge I acquired at these trainings to my work to support you in your home. My aim is to provide you with a level of care that meets your needs, that is non judgemental and evidenced based, that allows you to rest, be well nourished and confident caring for your baby.
I have breastfed all three of my children and have encountered several problems along the way, we did overcome them. I really enjoy helping other parents on their breastfeeding journey, offering advice, support and encouragement.
Whether this is your first baby or your sixth baby, parents need support and care during the early days with their baby. Doulacare Ireland is a wonderful agency that carefully selects a post partum doula with your needs in mind making the process of selecting a doula really simple.
