Here are some comments from our previous clients….
"Having a doula was fantastic. Lisa was very friendly and approachable and suggested methods to help our baby appear. It was wonderful - we may well have given up long before. Of all the expenses of having a baby, hiring a doula was the greatest value for money by far." Peter & Constantina, October 2008
"Karen was such a star on the 'day'. I had mentioned in my birth plan that doing crosswords might distract me during early contractions, and Karen was thoughtful enough to bring a puzzle book with her. We had fun doing puzzles, and this really helped me through early labour" Mark & Diana, July 2008
"We had a long and complicated labour, yet Lisa was with us throughout the 24 hour experience. Words cannot express how grateful we are to Lisa for her support and we wouldn't hesitate to contact Lisa again." Michelle & Quentin, February 2009
"Karen was there while I was hoping for a VBAC, she gave me great confidence and it was a great investment" Helen & Bob, Feb 2009
"Have a doula reassured us and increased our confidence that homebirth was right for us. Lisa went out of her way to drop some painkillers in during the middle of the night." Jo & Tony, May 2009
"Karen was fantastic during my labour and birth. It was fairly quick and she helped support me, as soon as she arrived I felt more reassured" New parents, Nov 2008
"Having a doula during labour meant I felt reassured that I was capable of birthing my baby. Lisa made me feel more empowered and confident and supported my partner throughout. I would definitely have a doula next time and think all women should have one." New parents, June 2008
"I would not have had the birth experience I had without my doula Lisa. She helped calm Steve, made sure everything was in my hospital bag and massaged my back throughout each contraction. Lisa was so encouraging with her words and actions - I felt empowered and much more relaxed than I would have been had she not been there. Lisa gave us so much strength and courage to have a natural birth that it made the whole experience a true celebration." Jacqui & Steve, August 2009
"The course has been fantastic and very informative. It's really informal and friendly and informative yet fun! We are definitely more confident about approaching birth and feel our anxieties towards labour have been eased - we really feel we can do it." Jo & Chris, 2008
"We feel much more confident with the thought of having our baby and I think the way I look at birth has totally changed." Becky & Sean, 2008
"This course gave us the chance to get to know others and learn from their experiences of pregnancy. We felt comfortable and relaxed from the start and we now feel a lot more confident - like we know what to expect." Mark & Di, 2008
"Both Karen & Lisa are friendly tutors and we learnt a lot. This course answered my concerns and worries and we feel a lot more confident." Rachel & Gareth, 2008
"We particularly enjoyed the breathing techniques, positions and movements for labour, the quiz and the biscuits! We feel far more informed and confident." Johanna & Neil, 2009
"We particularly enjoyed the relaxation, massage and positions to use during labour. The course was comprehensive and Lisa has a down to earth approach. I would recommend this course without hesitation." Michelle & Darren, 2008
