Hello, my name is Tanya and I am an End-of-Life Doula with Doula By Your Side, offering compassionate, practical, and non-judgemental support for individuals and families navigating end-of-life planning, serious illness, and the end-of-life journey. I walk alongside people through some of life’s most tender, uncertain, and emotional moments, helping to bring clarity where there is confusion, calm where there is overwhelm, and steady support when it is needed most.
End-of-life planning is for everyone — not just the elderly or those who are unwell. People of any age can benefit from having their wishes understood, their choices respected, and their affairs thoughtfully prepared. I help you plan ahead, make informed decisions, and have honest conversations about what truly matters, so you feel more in control and supported in your choices.
My support is personal and flexible and includes advance care planning, legacy work, emotional support, guidance for families, and ensuring your wishes are clearly documented and respected. I also provide calm, steady support during the active dying phase and after death, helping families navigate what can feel overwhelming with care, dignity, and reassurance.
No two journeys are ever the same. I take the time to truly listen and tailor my support to your individual needs, values, and cultural wishes. My approach is grounded in compassion, dignity, and choice, with a focus on reducing fear, opening space for honest conversation, and supporting people to feel more prepared and less alone.
Based in the Wollondilly Shire, NSW, I support individuals and families across the surrounding areas.
If you are planning ahead, supporting a loved one, or simply unsure where to start, I invite you to reach out. A simple conversation can help bring clarity and direction. You can call me or get in touch — I am here to support you when you are ready.
At Doula By Your Side, my commitment is simple: to provide steady, compassionate support so no one has to walk this path alone.
