Leanne is truly an angel disguised as a doula. I cannot put into words what a positive impact she had on our pregnancy, labour and delivery experience. She really takes her time with you in your prenatal visits to get a fulsome understanding of your knowledge and help to fill in any gaps. She is patient and non judgemental when it comes to coming up with a birth plan, and will provide her recommendations based on prior experiences and research when prompted. While my husband and I took 2 separate prenatal birthing classes that walked you through labour positions and partner support, Leanne's support when I was in early, active labour and transition was invaluable. The ideas, tools and physical support she offered really helped me through my contractions and her calming presence offered reassurance that everything would be okay. As I faced a pretty long and exhausting labour, I know that my partner and I wouldn't have fared and coped as well without Leanne. She stayed with us until shortly after the arrival of our sweet baby boy and documented some special memories of our birth experience and photos that we would never have had otherwise. We also had a lovely post partum visit to debrief on our experience, as well as to answer any additional questions we had. Honestly, I was a bit unsure about what a doula could offer but I'm so glad that we hired a doula, and in particular, the amazing Leanne. Anyone (particularly first time parents) who are considering a doula should just say YES and you'll be even luckier if you have Leanne in your corner.
