Anna came into my life a few weeks after my twins were born in 2021. I was a first time mom of preemie twins. One with a medical condition. She provided my family with safety, comfort and care. From folding all of our laundry to tending to the twins throughout the night so that I could get some rest. Bottle feeds, diaper changes, bedding changes, nightly snuggles. She did it all! She literally sat on the floor between their bassinets to help sleep train them. She did night shifts a few times a week for me. It gave me the support I needed to be able to get through those early days with twins.
Anna, we will be forever grateful for your care and support.

Great Doula, very friendly and helpful!

Anna has been an integral part of our support team throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. From the moment we started working together, I felt safe and cared for. She was a huge part of helping me feel autonomous during labour and my birth. She always provided reassurance at the right moment and advocated for us with medical professionals when my husband and I weren’t able to. Postpartum, she has been a lifeline for me to feel like a competent mom. Her extensive breastfeeding and baby growth and development knowledge has made the difference when it comes to my ability to confidently breastfeed. Anna is a huge reason why I’ve been able to cope through a very challenging postpartum period, because I know my son will always be safe with her. I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re on the fence, do it. You will never regret it.

I knew I wanted Anna on my journey before she even said a word. From the moment I met her, it was like my body recognized safety before my mind could catch up.
I was looking for someone who could help calm the waters as, or if, they came, and that’s exactly what she did. She has an incredible depth of knowledge and skill, but what held me the most was her compassion, her steadiness, and her deep understanding of what it means to be supported in such a vulnerable moment.
She felt like an anchor and I truly can’t imagine my experience without her. I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you Anna 🍌

Anna has the most warm, compassionate, and empowering approach to birth and postpartum support, and we are so glad to have found her! We were lucky enough to have her attend the births of both of our daughters, and her expertise made both of our experiences more comfortable and memorable - we truly couldn't have done it without her! Anna has a long list of natural pain management strategies and tools to share, advocated for me when I needed it, and was always one step ahead of me, thinking about what I needed while labouring and postpartum. Her kind and gentle approach to baby care, breastfeeding advice and knowledge, and knowledge of community resources were exceptionally helpful postpartum. I can't recommend her enough!

Anna supported us postpartum during some of the hardest weeks with our newborn! She always brought a sense of calm and confidence when entering our home and we are so grateful we got to have her be part of our postpartum experience. Her presence made a huge difference for my mental and physical health as I finally had some time to take care of myself while she helped with our baby. I would highly recommend Anna to anyone seeking doula support. It was the best first step for us in gradually making our way into new routines and transitions being a family of 3.
