Julie Meresse

Hello there 👋

I'm Julie, a photographer, a birth & postpartum Doula, and a mom of two kids aged 10 and 12, both born in Berlin.

I was then a foreigner, without any family around, and I would have loved to know that such support as doulas or postpartum doulas existed!

I am passionate about feminist questions such as birth, sexual health, reproductive justice and human rights.

I'm thrilled to be able to help people reappropriate their bodies, know their options and rights in the process of reproduction and birth, and support them as if i was family, in the vulnerable and often exhausting time of postpartum.
