Birth in your power, your rhythm, your way...
North East Doula & Hypnobirthing specialist, supporting parents across Northumberland and the North East to birth with confidence and power....
If you’ve landed here, I trust it’s for a reason.
You’re ready to feel deeply supported, gently held, and lovingly witnessed. To feel prepared - not just with information, but with deep inner trust.
Because you’re not looking for someone to tell you how to birth.
You’re looking for someone to walk beside you, as you remember that you already know.
Imagine approaching your birth feeling clear, grounded, and connected... to your body, your baby, and your own wisdom. And when you look back, you’ll know: every decision was yours.
And that is where the magic lies; the quiet, radiant pride in knowing you wouldn’t change a thing.
You might already have a vision. Or you might just know you want something more; something truer, wilder, more yours.
As a highly experienced home birth doula, birth educator & author I’ve supported women across the North East through home births, free births, and beautifully calm hospital births. I’ve held space beside birth pools and firesides, through quiet surrender and roaring power.
Wherever your journey leads, I’ll be there to help you feel steady, seen, and strong - guiding you back to yourself, again and again.
This is your journey home. And you don’t have to walk it alone...

"We hired Jess for the birth of our third baby, and it was hands-down one of the best decisions we made.
From our beautiful, private hypnobirthing sessions at her cosy Northumberland studio - to her calming presence during a stressful hospital admission, and finally at home where our son was birthed gently, surrounded by love...Jess was there through it all.
She supported us, honoured our intuition, and reminded us of our strength every step of the way.
Jess isn’t just a doula. She is warmth and wisdom. She is safety and sovereignty. She helped rewrite my understanding of birth, not as something to endure, but something to treasure.
If you’re wondering whether to bring her into your birth space: do.
She holds it gently and fiercely all at once, and you’ll never forget the way she makes you feel...like the most powerful version of yourself."
Meet your doula ...
Hi, I’m Jessica Ord - award-winning home doula, holistic birth educator, hypnobirthing specialist, and founder of Positively Pregnant, based in North East England.
I believe pregnancy, birth and the early postpartum period are profound rites of passage, not just experiences to get through.
How a woman feels as she moves through this time shapes her relationship with her body, her confidence, her mental and emotional wellbeing, and the foundations of her family for years to come.
My work blends physiological birth knowledge, trauma-aware care, nervous system support and holistic practices.
I offer deeply grounded support through doula care, hypnobirthing and antenatal education, pregnancy and postnatal massage, and gentle birth trauma resolution, always meeting women and families where they are.
With almost a decade of experience and over 500 families supported, I bring calm, clarity and compassionate presence to every stage of the journey.
Whether you are preparing for birth, navigating recovery, or seeking to feel more at home in your body again, my role is to walk beside you with care, respect and without judgement.
Rooted in the wild landscapes of North East England, I support women and families across Northumberland, the North East, Tyneside and the Scottish Borders, with in-person care and soulful online offerings available across the UK.
Emma's story...
"Jess was an absolutely crucial role in our pregnancy and birth.
Our home birth was 3 days long, in the end, and it was an emotional and physical marathon for me. And for her, too…a lot of hip pressing was involved!
But with Jess’ steadfast support and confidence, I never feared the outcome...even when the midwife had gone home for a break. Thank god Jess was there for our accidental free birth. I learned to trust in my decisions, in my body and was able to have the birth I’d always wanted.
Whenever I think back to the birth, I can see Jess there...gently encouraging and supporting us throughout, like some kind of birth angel!"
