Client Testimonials for Marina Poole

Marina was incredibly helpful in preparing me for birth and during the process. When it came to my preferences she made sure I was educated and used evidence based resources. During my birth she helped me feel less overwhelmed when dealing with hospital staff and created a sacred and calming space for when my baby was coming. Highly recommend her, she’s amazing

As first-time parents, Marina was the lighthouse that guided us through the uncertainty and stress of our high-risk pregnancy. She took special care from the moment we started working with her to listen to our history, heartaches, and questions and use that information to provide specific guidance at each stage of our pregnancy. We'd recommend her as a doula to any expecting mother!
