In South Asia, complete rest and nourishing care after childbirth are seen as essential to a woman’s long-term health, not just a luxury.
Today, with so many demands and often far from family, many of us struggle to find the support we need. This can leave us feeling isolated during such a critical time. The Fourth is here to be your extended support system, providing the care and connection you and your family deserve.

Foundations of The Fourth

We also offer a range of additional services that can be added to any package or tailored to create something bespoke for you.
Our expert carers primarily serve central London, but if you’re located elsewhere in London, please reach out—we’ll do our best to accommodate you.

The role of the postnatal doula is to support your emotional well-being and offer any support needed for your baby. Our incredible team of Doulas can help with; breastfeeding advice, changing of dressings, baby massage, identifying your baby’s needs, taking care of your baby so you can sleep, shower or just to take a moment for yourself.

Holistic massage focuses on the health of your whole body whilst lymphatic drainage massage uses techniques to move the fluids from your tissues to your lymph nodes, which eases swelling in your tissues. Both are incredibly gentle. Our massage therapists specialise in treatments that include these benefits:
• Soothing of the mind and body post birth
• As hormones rebalance and your body rebuilds, long, gentle massage strokes boost circulation and blood flow, and help to drain excess fluids - all while comforting your mind and body. -
This helps you to recover and replenish energy, supporting physical and emotional well-being after childbirth.
Our Reflexologist will help to alleviates common postpartum discomforts such as; muscle-tension, breast tenderness, back pain, and swelling by stimulating circulation and promoting relaxation.
We offer two treatments:
Feet: Focuses on each body system, working one foot at a time with movements to create deep relaxation.
Facial: Facial reflexology is like a cosmetic facial but with many more benefits. As well as using the same techniques as foot and hand reflexology, Gua Sha is also used.
