Silk and Tassel
Doula Services
Hello!
Silk and Tassel offers hypnobirthing classes and a range of doula services that provide emotional and practical support to families during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. Jacinda is dedicated to creating a nurturing environment, empowering parents with knowledge and confidence throughout their journey.
​
Having a doula can be that extra continuous support for women and families. I’m there as a sounding board, listening ear, holding your hand through it all. I am the extra part of your team, and work alongside your partner and medical team. It’s extremely personal, and the level of support is individual. And whilst I cannot guarantee a certain type of birth, I can promise that your feel empowered, supported and held throughout the entire process.
Adjusting to motherhood and caring for a tiny human is a huge transition. As society I think we tend to prepare and focus on the birth and how you will care for your baby but not necessarily how we will care for ourselves or the mother and that’s where a doula steps in. To help ease the transition, allowing you to focus on being, not doing and caring for, getting to know and falling in love with your precious baby.
​
The health of our future generations is dependent on mothers, and the care, support and attention are essential for both.

Servicing the Scenic Rim, Ipswich and surrounding areas. If you are expecting a baby or know anyone who is and might be interested in a Doula that will support and uplift every step of the way, please take a look at my services and get in touch.
What is a Doula?
​Doulas provide continual holistic support which involves physical, emotional, mental and spiritual support. We offer continuous and unwavering support for women and their partner through the most profounds experience of their lives. We encourage you to tune in to yourself, your intuition, and what is truly important to you.
​
Doulas are not health professionals and do not give medical advice or perform any medical tasks. I’m not here to replace the medical system or your existing support network, I work collaboratively with them, to complement and enhance support. I can provide invaluable assistance and reassurance throughout the process. I wholeheartedly trust you, and support your decision making.
​
Doulas provide a safe space for not only the mother but the partner as well and help to enhance the partner’s support. I definitely do not take away the support from your partner but work together and make it easier for them so they are able to support you best, giving you the most positive, empowering experience.
​
During the postpartum period, Doulas are there to nurture you and your baby as you adjust to life together. Whatever you need during this time, whether it’s a listening ear, some tidying up or help with washing, a nourishing meal or snack, time to rest and sleep, tips and tricks for soothing or understanding your baby's cues, feeding support, or any further education, information or resources.
​
What you may want, or need can look completely different too, so as a Doula I am completely flexible and tailor my care to support your unique and individual needs and honour and respect whatever your choices are.
​
As a Doula, I am chosen by you and will be there for you and all that your journey entails.
​
I’m here to be apart of your village.

Mumma Love
Some of my Mummas share the love...
We had the privilege of having Jacinda as our postpartum doula for our 2nd child as my mother was unable to travel for my confinement. Jacinda immediately integrated with our family respecting our wishes & empowering us through the vulnerable facets of the fourth trimester. From offering practical care such as home cooked meals, snacks & laundry to caring for bub while I rested attributed to a speedy recovery. The weekly massage was a nice touch for a very tired Mamma! I strongly recommend Jacinda’s services to all new mums. My son & I will forever be grateful.

I truly don’t have enough words to express the gratitude I feel for Jacinda and the incredible support she gave me throughout my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey. From the moment we met, she brought a sense of calm, care, and confidence that stayed with me every step of the way. Her support was not just professional, it was deeply personal and loving. She showed up with home-cooked meals, a listening ear, and unwavering encouragement. Her presence made all the difference, not only for me but also for my husband, who felt equally supported by her guidance. Jacinda helped me achieve my goal of having a VBAC—a journey that took strength, preparation, and trust. She believed in me, even in moments when I doubted myself. Thanks to her, I was able to experience birth in the way I had hoped for, and I came out of it feeling strong and deeply cared for. I can’t imagine having gone through this without her.
Louisa & Curtis
As first time parents, my husband and I found it overwhelming and confusing with all the information out there on what pregnancy, birth and post partum life should look like. Having Jacinda as our doula helped us make sense of this new era of our lives and her support and guidance was nothing short of phenomenal. She made our pregnancy, birth and post partum such a positive experience, giving us the confidence we needed to make informed choices every step of the way. Jacinda's vibe was so friendly, nurturing and unjudgmental as she provided information, tools, a familiar face (and many home cooked meals and massages!) throughout our journey. We couldn't thank her enough and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking to shape their pregnancy, birth and/or post partum into something confident, positive and amazing!
