Welcome to Tidy Endings
At Tidy Endings, we believe that the end of life is a deeply personal journey that deserves care, dignity, and clarity. As an End-of-Life doula service based in Melbourne, our mission is to support individuals and families as they navigate the emotional, practical, and spiritual aspects of dying.
​
Whether you're seeking peace of mind for yourself or a loved one, we understand that every person is unique, and so are their wishes. Our compassionate approach helps you prepare mindfully, addresses your concerns, and craft a meaningful, tailored experience that reflects your own values and preferences.
​
We gently guide you through three natural stages of support:
Plan
For those wishing to make sense of what lies ahead, we offer space to explore options, talk through hopes and fears, and begin putting thoughtful arrangements in place - from advance care wishes to emotional legacies.
Prepare
Before things become urgent, we help gently gather and organise key information, such as personal accounts, important paperwork, financial access details, and relevant medical documents like Advance Care Directives.
Ponder
In quieter moments, we support a deeper turning inwards - offering space to reflect, make peace, and gently consider the life lived and the legacy left behind. Through calm presence and conversation, we help ease the emotional and spiritual transition, so that the journey towards the end can feel meaningful, settled, and whole.
As far back as Ancient Greece, women have been supporting the community through life's major transitions - birth and death. Learn how Doulas' roles have changed to our current times.
This is a very personal journey. And being informed of, and carefully considering your choices before any health deterioration, allows you to make the right decisions - for you.
