Meet Susan Douse: The Heart Behind Aurora’s Daisy Chain
My journey is rooted in understanding yours.
Hello! I’m Susan Douse, and the path I took to becoming a Hypnobirthing teacher, Doula, and founder of Aurora’s Daisy Chain was paved by a deep desire for meaningful change and genuine support.
From Corporate Stress to Compassionate Care
For years, I worked in the demanding world of finance, often feeling overworked and under-appreciated. Life fundamentally shifted after I experienced a personal tragedy: a miscarriage in 2017. This hardship, while devastating, instilled in me a powerful empathy for the complex emotional landscape of motherhood.
When I successfully became pregnant again and welcomed my beautiful baby girl, I knew I needed to find a professional life that could truly fit around my new life—a life dedicated to nurture and purpose. I made the bold decision to leave the corporate world behind and trained as a Hypnobirthing Teacher and Doula.
💜 My Mission: Your Holistic Well-being
I founded Aurora’s Daisy Chain with one clear, all-encompassing goal: to help all women and children, supporting them through pregnancy, loss, and health and wellbeing.
Having personally navigated both profound loss and the joy of a successful birth, I understand that support must be holistic. It’s about empowering your mind, caring for your body, and holding space for your emotions.
How I Support You
My services are designed to be a complete circle of care for the whole family:
- Hypnobirthing: Giving you the tools to approach birth calmly and confidently, transforming fear into excitement.
- Doula Services: Offering continuous emotional and physical support to you and your partner throughout your pregnancy, labour, and postpartum journey.
- Grief Support: Providing compassionate, dedicated care and resources for families navigating the difficult journey of loss.
- Sports Massage: Offering therapeutic relief and bodywork to manage the physical demands of pregnancy, recovery, and daily life.
🔬 Driven by Evidence and Empathy
Susan’s commitment to holistic care is backed by academic rigor. She is currently pursuing a Health Sciences degree, ensuring that all the practices and support offered by Aurora’s Daisy Chain are informed by the latest research and evidence-based principles in women’s and children’s health. This blend of hands-on experience and academic knowledge guarantees professional, high-quality care.
I look forward to supporting you on your unique path to motherhood. Let’s start building your circle of care today!
