Working with Marianne as my doula was nothing short of extraordinary. As a first-time mom, I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness about the birthing experience, but Marianne’s presence brought me an incredible sense of calm and empowerment. From the first meeting, she was warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring, making sure I felt heard and supported every step of the way. During labor, her guidance and encouragement were invaluable—she helped me breathe through contractions, eased my anxiety, and gave my partner the confidence to be my best support. Marianne’s intuition and experience made all the difference, and her soothing words and reassuring touch kept me focused and grounded. Thanks to her, my birth experience was even more beautiful than I had imagined. Marianne’s support didn’t end after the birth—she was a lifesaver during my postpartum journey. She provided a compassionate ear, checking in on me regularly and offering reassurance through the inevitable ups and downs of those early days. Her knowledge about newborn care, breastfeeding, and emotional well-being helped me gain confidence as a new mom. Marianne also recognized the importance of my mental health, encouraging me to rest and prioritize self-care, which was so essential in those first weeks. Her gentle guidance helped me find my footing in this new role, and I felt truly cared for and understood. I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
