Congratulations to Emily Roffe-Silvester owner of Devon & Somerset Birth Support! Emily has been providing doula (birth support) and placenta encapsulation services since she launched her UK business in 2018. Prior to this she worked as both doula and encapsulator in Australia.
She was kind enough to tell us about herself…
Emily Roffe-Silvester – Doula, Placenta Arts Specialist (APPAC), and Birth Activist.
I am a passionate doula and love all things birth – you could call me a birth nerd!
I love helping women and families explore their inner strengths and birthing desires, while also giving parents-to-be the space they need to explore their innermost fears and let go – doing so allows labour to unfold in an easier, more loving way.
I am a proud mother myself and understand the importance of a positive birth for both mother and baby.
By nature, I’m an optimist, an energy giver and teacher at heart.
My doula training took place in Australia and my placenta encapsulation training thr
We asked Emily to share some of her successes with us. Here’s what she said:
Since moving to the UK my placenta services have boomed – with approx. 4 placentas to encapsulate each month!
I’m well sought after in the Devon & Somerset area because I offer a professional service that includes:
~25% off ALL my placenta services.
~FREE ‘Tree of Life’ Placenta Print and Umbilical Cord Keepsake with every purchase.
~FREE cooler bag with returned products.
~Average turnaround is 24 hours!
A recent testimonial of my placenta services says:
“Emily is an incredible human. She has been warm, kind, supportive and open. She created confidence in me. She talked to me and helped me feel like I could achieve anything in life and birth – an amazing quality and characteristic. I also had my placenta encapsulated and had a fantastic experience. Not something I had ever thought about before but one I would totally do again. My hormones have felt steady and balanced. This is such a different post partum experience to last time. I could not recommend Emily and her services enough. If you chose Devon and Somerset Birth support. You will experience so much more than just support!!”
Why did you choose APPA as your certifying organization?
I understand it to be the best and most reliable programme offered for placenta encapsulation.
What did you like the most about APPA?
The platform was easy to use
How has this training changed your practice or added to your knowledge?
I feel 100% confident that I am offering my clients the safest, most professional placenta encapsulation services available.
