The Doula Hub - Leti

My name is Letizia Tufari, Leti for short! I am Italian and moved to
the UK as a child back in 1990. I live in Wandsworth, South West
London, with my English husband and three young children. I
absolutely love to travel and like organising fun and different family
holidays.​
Having three births in three years definitely led me to really
wanting to help other women going through this very special time.
I didn’t know anything about doulas until I had my third child and
as soon as I came across them I knew it was just perfect for me.
Supporting women and birthing people through this very special
time is extremely rewarding and joyous and I feel lucky to have
been able to do it as a profession for the last eight years.
I truly believe it is 100% possible for all women to have a really
positive birth experience. I learned a huge amount from my three
births and all the amazing women and birthing people I have had
the privilege to support. Every time I am with a woman during
labour I see that being supported and nurtured at this very
vulnerable time is what really makes a huge difference to the
outcome.
Our bodies have been wonderfully designed over thousands of
years to birth beautifully and sometimes in our modern society it’s
easy to lose sight of that. My role is to provide you with as much
information as possible for you to be able to make informed
decisions that you feel really happy with. To help you and your
partner feel confident, safe and knowledgeable from the moment
the first contractions start to the early postnatal period.

I hear so many sad stories about births that have left mothers
feeling like they were totally out of control and felt pressured by
some of their caregivers, sometimes even feelings of having failed.
Not knowing what is happening can be really scary and in labour
even more so. I feel passionately that this should never happen.
Whatever you choose for your birth, my job is to be your advocate
and make sure your voice is heard. It's your party, everyone else is
just an invited guest! Every time I witness a birth I am reminded
what a miracle it really is
