HOLISTIC
mother care
Whether you’re pregnant, freshly postpartum, or an experienced mother, we’ll work together to help you feel grounded, supported, and confident every step of the way.
let's shift from doing what's expected, to doing what feels right
There is no such thing as a perfect mother
And there is no perfect way to give birth, feed your baby, or mother your children.
Because it’s not about striving for an unattainable and romanticised ideal. And it’s definitely not about holding it all together with sheer grit and determination.
This is about stepping into a conscious journey from maiden to mother and accepting the full experience of birth, postpartum, and motherhood – whatever it holds for you.

BIRTH SUPPORT
$1350
Serving sooke to victoria, Bc and surrounding area
As a woman and mother, I know firsthand how overwhelming the unknowns of birth and motherhood can be. It’s my goal that you move through your birth feeling informed, validated, and respected so your journey to motherhood starts from a strong and grounded place.
As a birth doula, I help you tune out the noise of conflicting information, family opinions, and social media messaging and tune into your true desires. Who are you as a woman? As a mother? What do you believe about birth? About your body? And how does this impact the ways in which you prepare for birth? We’ll go far beyond basic birth plans and utilize a blend of evidence-based resources, ancestral knowledge, somatic practices, and your own innate wisdom to help you birth in your way and on your terms.
Continuous and compassionate doula care for pregnancy, labour, and birth
BIRTH SUPPORT PACKAGES INCLUDE:
2 in-person prenatal meetings to establish our relationship, share knowledge and resources, and prepare holistically for your birth
unlimited voice note and text support for the duration of your contract so you feel heard, seen, and held

BONUS: complimentary virtual somatic coaching sessions, if desired, to prepare your body, heart, and mind for birth and motherhood from a body based, nervous system perspective
I’m here to offer gentle guidance through birth and the mainstream medical system with the practiced eyes of a nurse and the compassionate heart of a doula. I’m here to support you to make informed and nourishing decisions throughout your labour and birth. I’m here to be a witness, friend, confidante, teammate, and advocate.
I’m here for you.

POSTPARTUM support
As a doula, I believe that how you feel during your birth matters. And I also know that birth is just the beginning. Because how you feel as you begin to heal and transition into motherhood matters just as much.
Our culture is filled with messages about how early postpartum is one of the hardest parts of motherhood. And while it’s certainly filled with new experiences and physical and emotional challenges, it doesn’t have to feel draining or isolating.
Imagine that you emerge from your early postpartum period feeling healed, nourished, and supported. You know that doing it all yourself isn’t the best way forward, and you have the tools you need to care for yourself as your transition to motherhood continues. Imagine that you trust yourself to feel the wide range of emotions that come with transformation, and you deeply know there is nothing wrong with you for feeling that way.
When you’re cared for, you’re able to keep caring for yourself, your baby, your family, and your community.
When you're cared for, everyone thrives.

Motherhood is a full-body experience that deserves full-body support.
There’s no other season in life that stretches you this wide—physically, emotionally, spiritually. It takes you to your edges. You’re sleep-deprived, mineral-depleted, hormonally shifting, and expected to hold it all together while keeping another little being alive and well! No wonder overwhelm and feeling like you’re “lost” creeps in.
The truth is, modern motherhood is WILD. Beautiful, raw, messy, magical, maddening, and full of invisible labor that rarely gets named, let alone supported. If you're feeling lost, burnt out, irritable, anxious, disconnected, or just not yourself, I want you to know that it’s not because you're failing. It’s because your body, brain, and heart are in a developmental period, and that confusing spiral has a name! While universal, it's wildly unique. It's called matrescence. And it calls for deep understanding, holistic support, and gentle loving witnessing to move through.
Well-Nourished Mother Integration Sessions are a place to reconnect with the woman you are, and the mother you’re becoming. A space to explore the wildness of this season—not to tame it, but to honour it. A space to let yourself feel cared for and nourished body, mind, and heart. Together, we create a gentle, grounded container for you to process what’s unfolding, tune in to your nervous system, nourish your body, and build rituals and routines that feel resourcing and realistic.
Where your wildness is welcomed and your well-being is tended
My approach to coaching is grounded in the body and guided by intuition, non-judgement, curiosity, creativity, and play
In each session, we’ll explore the intricate and intertwined layers of matrescence and mothering by blending:
–cyclical living
–somatic wisdom
–nutritional support
–embodiment practices
–matrescence education
–maternal nervous system regulation
-and radical permission to feel it all, together
We’ll cycle between deep, felt-sense inner work and applied, practical outer work so you leave each session feeling connected to your heart, attuned to your body, and prepared to move forward with confidence and ease.
Whether you’re moving through grief, feeling overwhelmed in your current season of motherhood, longing for guidance around nutrition and supplements, desiring more pleasure in your day-to-day mothering, or learning to just FEEL your feelings, these sessions are for the parts of you that feel forgotten, fragmented, or just tired of doing it all alone. You’ll leave feeling more you: more rooted, more resourced, and more able to ride the natural waves of motherhood with deep compassion, wildness and wellness.

Rituals & ceremonies
There's something ancient, healing, and necessary about gathering in circle- to be witnessed, supported, and reminded that you don't have to hold it all alone. I offer custom circles for any occasion that calls for connection: birthdays, grief or loss, rites of passage, seasonal transitions, girls' nights with more intention, or simply just a meaningful pause to refill your cup. Whether you're celebrating, reflecting, or just longing for deeper community, I'll help you create a circle that's soulful, nourishing, and tailored to the unique energy of your group.
The baby gets showered with gifts, but what about the mother? A Mother Blessing (or blessingway) is a beautiful, intentional gathering focused on celebrating you in pregnancy. Invite your closest friends and family and participate in rituals designed to shower you with wisdom, encouragement and love as you near the birth of your baby. I offer both virtual and in-person services from a little help planning it out, to full on ceremony creation and facilitation.

Your well-nourished motherhood starts here
I can’t express enough how grateful I am for Lauren’s doula services. From the moment I decided to hire her around 34 weeks, I knew I had made the right decision. Her calming presence and unwavering support truly transformed my birth experience. Despite my birth plan not going as expected, Lauren ensured that I never felt judged or unsupported. Instead, I felt empowered, heard, and completely taken care of every step of the way.
