Placenta Services
Encapsulating your placenta can be a powerful way to honour your pregnancy, birth, and the transformative journey you’re on as a mother, as well as offering benefits for your postpartum recovery.
Mothers who ingest their placenta often report feeling calmer during the early weeks, and 98% say they would choose to do it again.
I offer personalised Placenta Encapsulation and Tinctures as per the below packages, covering Merton, Wandsworth, Sutton, Kingston, & Croydon. The collection kit, collection of your placenta (day or night), and delivery of your remedies is included in the price you see below.
After booking, I am available via whatsapp to ask questions and arrange smooth collection. I provide a local, personal service and always aim to collect your placenta myself within 4 hours of it being born – no strange courier turning up in your birth space!
Due Date Availability:
September – please message me on 07742 261498 with your due date before booking.
October onwards – more availability, please use booking form as usual.
Why use your placenta?
Using placenta remedies as an alternative therapy during the postnatal period is becoming more and more popular.
Your placenta holds many different nutrients at the time of birth:
- Stem cells and growth factors
- Oxytocin hormone
- Iron
- Vitamins B6 and E
- Hormonal Balance
- Increased Energy
- Boost Milk Supply
- Aid Postpartum Recovery
- Improved Mood
- Holistic Healing
Each of these nutrients, plus more that are present, provide a different benefit to you as a new mother/parent which may include:
Services & Packages
Simple encapsulation
With the simple method (sometimes known as raw encapsulation) your placenta is rinsed, sliced, dehydrated, and ground before being put into capsules. This method produces most capsules for you to take 1-3 times a day postpartum.

Steamed encapsulation
The placenta is steamed before being sliced, dehydrated, ground, and put into capsules. This method can decrease the potency of the nutrients and so is only used if you’re a carrier of Strep B or meconium was present during birth.

Tincture & encapsulation
A tincture is a life-long remedy. Here, part of the placenta is steeped in strong alcohol for several weeks and returned to you after 6 weeks. Add this to your simple or steamed capsules for an enhanced placenta package.

Payment, Collection, and Delivery
Payment:
A £100 non-refundable deposit is required to secure your booking and for the Placenta Collection Kit to be sent to you. The balance payment is due by 38 weeks of your pregnancy or prior to collection (whichever happens first). Payments are via bank transfer using an invoice payment link.
Collection Kit:
Once your deposit has been received, a full collection kit (including cool bag, ice packs, secure bag for your placenta, and full instructions for storing your placenta safely prior to collection) will be delivered to your home at around 36 weeks, or within 72 hours if booking after this time. The cost of this kit is included in the package price.
I will ask you to let me know when labour is happening and once the placenta has been born. Your placenta will be collected from you (at hospital or home) within 10 hours after birth, usually sooner. I aim to collect this personally and will never use a courier service.
Receiving your Placenta Remedies:
I work to return your capsules to you within 3-4 days, sometimes it will be sooner. Delivery is via Next Day Signed-For post, and this is included within the package price. I can hand deliver to the following postcodes for an additional £20 fee; SM4, SM1, SM3, KT4, KT3, SW20, SW19, SW17, CR4. Any tincture will be delivered later (unless you are happy to receive it with the placenta still in the bottle).
Hospital areas
I cover the following hospitals and their surrounding areas for homebirths:
- Kingston Hospital
- Epsom Hospital and St Helier Hospital in Sutton
- St George’s Hospital in Tooting
- Chelsea & Westminster Hospital
- Croydon University Hospital
- Kings College Hospital.
I may attend other hospitals for an additional travel fee of £30.
Training and Standards
I trained with the highly regarded PRISM Placenta Remedies.
I am trained in Food Safety, Infection Control and Hazard Analysis, ensuring your capsules and tinctures are safe to use.
Annual re-certification is part of the PRISM training, this is to ensure that any updates to procedures, laws, health and safety or hospital protocols are passed on and understood within my offerings.
As a Doula who also attends births, I truly understand these moments, and deeply respect your birth space. Therefore I ensure as smooth and discreet collection as possible so you can concentrate on caring for yourself and your new baby.
All certificates can be provided on request.
