Carolyne Yeoman-McDonald, Yoga and Doula Team Lead
Carolyne is a certified Yoga Teacher, certified Prenatal Yoga Teacher, Labour Doula, and mother of three, two of which were home births. When she began teaching she noticed there was a lack of support, information and resources for pre/postnatal care. In 2013, she created a Prenatal Yoga Circle that became a place for mums-to-be to connect, move and share. It opened them up to their options, giving them insight on the hidden gems of practitioners that were available within the community.
She continues to train and educate herself Pelvic Health, and other modalities such as Movement and Trauma, Mindful Strength, Shamanic Healing and Yoga and The Facial System. Carolyne has completed her Birth and Postnatal Doula training, 100hr Prenatal Yoga Certification and received her Pelvic Floor Trainer Certification with Bellies Inc in 2015.
“In the end, it’s not necessarily the type of birth you have that has a lasting impression… to know you had options and freedom of choice, that you were supported in your decisions and most importantly that you were heard and you were respected , that you were treated with care and compassion. This is of the utmost importance and lasts a lifetime. EVERY woman deserves this type of care.”
