Lauren was an incredible doula for my first birth! I really wanted doula support to help me have a positive birth experience and was so relieved to have her as a part of my team after our initial consult. Lauren provided resources, went over my preferences, and explained her services. She was ready to go when my labor began and progressed quickly and jumped right in with her support tools. She was extremely helpful to my husband and mom throughout the labor as well, helping everyone engage in supporting me. She encouraged me with positive affirmations and provided compassionate follow-up after my baby arrived. Lauren is knowledgeable about birth and brings a calm, reassuring presence. I'm grateful for her service!

We hired Lauren for the birth of our third and final child, the only one that my wife wanted to do without an epidural. The amount of knowledge and preparation that Lauren brought to the experience was fantastic!

She came with a game plan, and multiple alternatives in case something went off the expectations. She was helpful leading up to the birth, in triage, and for the few days that we had been admitted to the hospital. We could ask questions, and she'd be able to provide information and reassurances that helped calm and ease our minds.

She was a person that my wife and I had in the room that we could rely on, without having to worry about offending or upsetting her, like we sometimes think about when having family present. Well after this experience, which my wife did amazing at and I would say did better than the two medicated births, Lauren really has made an impression and has been accepted into our new family!

Thank you Lauren, and we're sad that we only had you at our last birth!
