Working with Laurie was absolutely the right decision for us. We had a wonderful birth experience and felt fully supported by Laurie from the start all the way to the post delivery pizza run she graciously did for us. That pizza was the most amazing thing after the delivery and the fact that Laurie completely understood the importance of it was why we were such a great match. She took the time to get to know us, our quirks, and the things that mattered the most to us. After meeting with her initially we felt she was perfect for the kind of support we wanted for our first child's birth. We wanted to work with someone highly experienced but down to earth and approachable. Our pre=natal meetings with her served as crucial preparation for us in getting ready for our birth. She took time to ask us questions that we had never considered and in the process of talking through the answers with her we were able to get a much better understanding of what we wanted, what our options were, as well as how to mentally prepare for the fact that many things might go differently than our ideal scenario. Working with Laurie we felt much more comfortable with the unknows of our upcoming birth and that helped us go into the experience feeling positive and ready to takle any challenges. She was a strong advocate for my needs with the hospital staff and made sure I had everything I wanted or needed in my labor suite. Most importantly, she played an important role for my spouse in helping him support me in the best way possible that felt authentic to both of us. We would highly recommend Laurie as a doula whether this is your first birth or your fifth. Her bredth of knoweldge and experience can support the full range of labor experiences.
