Testimonial for Lauren Heide

As soon as I found out that I was pregnant, I knew I wanted Lauren with babybeandoula to be my doula.
What I didn’t expect was for her doula support to exist beyond the hospital room. Lauren invested hours prior to my daughters birth connecting with my husband and I to educate us on all things birth and postpartum (we’re first time parents), learn about what was important to me during labor, and help us come up with a self-care plan for ourselves in the months to follow. We were able to act on our self-care plan thanks to the postpartum doula service that she provides. This service was a God send as it gave my husband and I weekly respite to look forward to in the early days so we could reconnect with one another and feel like ourselves again.

Lauren goes on call for you at 38 weeks, but she didn't skip a beat when I called her at 36 weeks in labor. She helped my husband and I at a very vulnerable and uncertain time when our daughter chose to arrive ahead of schedule. I have Lauren in part to thank for having such an uncomplicated and enjoyable labor and delivery experience. If this is important to you, I can't recommend her enough. 

She also provided my husband and I with the priceless gift of photos from my last day being pregnant, my progession through labor, and the birth of my daughter. She wrote a birth story as well that I can't wait to read on my daughter's 1st birthday. 

Lauren's services extend well beyond just guiding you through birth. She is an immeasurable support to you, your partner, your baby every step of the way. Lauren will be everything you didn't know you needed throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
