Welcome to Harjumaja!

My name is Jenna Hannula. I am really glad that you came to see my page and get to know me and my work as a doula. All my services are available in English.

I am certified professional doula, pediatric nurse, breastfeeding counselor and reflexological massagist. I am a mother of two adorable children and a wife. Me and my family live at Ylöjärvi.

I meet my clients at Vauvakuiskaajat space at Tampere, at my home at Ylöjärvi and I also visit at client's home. I support families in pregnancy, birth and postpartum as a professional doula. In addition to basic doula work, I offer breastfeeding guidance, birth and postpartum coaching and body treatments for babies and adults.

I have worked at TAYS in Tampere and Jorvi's hospital in Espoo. I have worked as a nurse versatilely in different departments, treating people of different ages. I have also worked in private healthcare at Pihlajalinna and in the women's shelter of Tampere (Tampereen ensi- & turvakoti). I currently work part-time as entrepreneur and part-time in family business as a technical wholesaler. After my first-born child's birth, I wanted to help families with my professional skills but I didn't want to work in a hospital. I wanted to give better and more personal guidance, so I decided to start my own business.

My goal and values

My main goal is to serve and help families to have better and more supported beginning in a big life change. No one should have to survive alone. Parents need personal support and the support of community, which I try to increase as best I can.

I own strong knowledge of health care and hospital practices, which allow me to coach families to have better birth experience. I encourage families to give birth naturally, but I guide medical methods and their benefits and risks. It's important to me that families can make informed decisions.

I am a gentle, honest and understanding person. The most important values of my work are well-being, equality and nature. I emphasize inclusive language in my work and I want to use the terms you defined.

All my services are structured so that you can get support for either a short or a long time.

I offer a free introductory meeting so that you can be sure of my suitability for your family. Call me ( phone 050-4698800 ) or send an email ( harjumajandoula@gmail.com ) and let's arrange a time for our meeting.

"Jenna brought a lot of information to us during pregnancy (regarding delivery phases, interventions, pain relief methods, etc), which was very useful when making our birth choices, our birth plan and during actual birth. Jenna answered all the questions we had about a variety of topics with patience and care. Jenna was always available for us, and her support in the last weeks of pregnancy was very important to keep us calm and confident."

"I had a very long first birth and I was anxious that it would be this way the second time. Jenna was great at keeping me focused and ensuring that we didn't get stuck during the early labour hours, when I could easily have become "in my head" too much. She knew exactly what was happening moment to moment, she was supportive to my husband, and she did a great job of protecting our space from becoming overly medicalised."

"Jenna provided invaluable assistance for a successful breastfeeding journey. It was great to have her confirmation that we were in the right path. She also shared a lot of relevant material/links related to nursing, was constantly checking on us and provided nursing and pumping plans that were (and still are) very helpful to our family."

"It was wonderful to have Jenna's warm presence in our home once our daughter was born. She helped us to navigate the start of our feeding journey - although I had breastfed before, every baby is different. Our daughter really benefited from her care and massage."
