Birth Doula Testimonial:

Laura’s calming presence, deep knowledge, and experience made it an easy decision to ask her to be our birth doula. From the very start, she provided unwavering support, making us feel understood, reassured, and fully prepared for the journey ahead.

I didn’t realize just how much I needed Laura until the moment I truly did. She was always just a text away, day or night, answering my questions with care and making me feel heard and empowered, especially when it came to my birth plan. She explained what to expect at the hospital in the most delicate and reassuring way, ensuring I felt informed rather than overwhelmed.

Due to the circumstances, we needed to encourage our baby to make her move, and Laura guided me through natural ways to help her along. At the hospital, she supported me through walks up and down the stairs, curb walking, and even squats, my final workout before labour! Most importantly, she radiated the positive energy I needed in those crucial moments.

Laura also transformed the labour room into a peaceful space, just as I had envisioned. She had essential oils ready, kept me grounded with hypnobirthing techniques, and ensured I understood everything the midwives were saying. Perhaps most beautifully, she brought out the very best in my husband during labour—making the experience even more special for us as a couple.

I genuinely cannot imagine what my birth experience would have been like without Laura by my side. From calming me with massages to seamlessly supporting my husband, all while bringing a much-needed sense of humor and warmth, she made every moment feel safe and empowering. Our little Daisy was so lucky to enter the world in such a loving and peaceful environment.

If you’re considering a doula, I cannot recommend Laura enough she is truly one of a kind.

Postpartum Doula Testimonial:

I would highly recommend for all mothers to organise their post partum experience. Without a doubt if you have other children. Every mother deserves good post partum support and Laura is excellent. 

My post partum experience with my second child was a smooth and gentle one. I’m delighted I organised for Laura to be our doula during this crucial time. She graciously stepped into our family and supported us all simply with her presence but also in very practical ways. She bonded with our firstborn and was great support for him so I could rest and focus on bonding with our new baby. Laura has a lot of knowledge and simple tricks to help with all kinds post partum issues. Peri bottles, lactation cookies, aloe Vera pads. Not to mention Indian head massages and healing herbs for the bath. I would highly recommend all mothers to have Laura by their side. It speeds up the healing process and makes something that could potentially be a stressful and difficult process into something genuinely healing and joyful. 

HYPNOBIRTHING COURSE TESTIMONIAL:

As we prepared for the birth of our first baby, we decided to take a hypnobirthing course with Laura- and it was one of the best decisions we made. The course covered everything from the biology of birth to practical techniques that helped us feel more confident and prepared for labour.

Taking the course together brought my husband and me even closer, making us feel more connected and excited to welcome our baby. It was especially beneficial for my husband, as he learned calming and relaxation techniques that not only supported me through contractions but also helped keep me at ease on the way to the hospital.

In the weeks leading up to my due date, I practiced the techniques Laura taught me, and during labour, I was able to enter a meditative state that made the experience much more positive. Thanks to this, I have truly beautiful memories of the labour room (something I never expected to say!)

The course also opened our eyes to things we wouldn’t have even considered otherwise, making us feel much more prepared for the journey ahead.

I would highly recommend this course, especially for first-time parents. It’s an invaluable experience that changes the way you approach birth.
