Lauren is amazing and was a true support throughout my pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. She was informative and went out of her way to find more information for me about things I was unsure about, such as delayed cord clamping and lactation consultants. I felt like Lauren was on my side and didn't judge me for the decisions I made and she definitely wasn't pushing her own idea of what birth or child-rearing should be like. As a person she has a relaxing presence and is fun to spend time with. I felt that our personalities clicked when I met her so it made the decision very easy. Before birth, Lauren assisted my husband and I by going through all of the different labor positions and pain management techniques we were interested in and she even helped us meal prep some things for our freezer! During birth, Lauren was a large advocate for what I wanted, even though I had quite a pushy and possible outdated doctor. This was my second birth experience and it was as close to everything I wanted as possible and I know that was because of Lauren. I could not have wished for a better person or doula to have with us and I am truly thankful that Lauren does what she does.
