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.

POSTPARTUM DOULA CLIENT N.C
From the moment I met Lauren, I felt like I was talking to a dear friend. I immediately felt comfortable and supported as we explored topics like matrescence, boundary work, and partner dynamics after having a child. Our conversations became a lifeline for me during a particularly complicated postpartum period. I felt safe enough to leave my baby for a few hours to attend much-needed pelvic floor physiotherapy and other aftercare, thanks to Lauren’s nursing background. It was truly a privilege to be held by someone so passionate, knowledgeable, and kind.

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.
