      I contacted Anne early in my pregnancy and she provided me with so much support and guidance all the way through. She always listened to my concerns and happily discussed all my options and fully supported any decisions I made.   Anne was invaluable during my birth, she helped me…

      After a first traumatic birth in hospital without doula support, we decided to reach out to Anne and she has been our doula for our second and third babies. Both had very different birth stories and these experiences have made my husband and I big advocates for doulas! Our second…

      I got in touch with Anne when I found out I was pregnant with our third child. My first birth was a classic ‘cascade of intervention’, leaving me with ongoing gynae issues and a complete fear of childbirth. My second was an elective Caesarian due to breech baby. So I…

      I honestly cannot put into words how grateful I am for Anne and the support she gave me throughout my birth journeys. From the very beginning, her experience and calm presence made me feel completely safe. She helped me understand birth & not to be afraid.Thanks to Anne, I was…

      This was our 3rd baby, the first two births had been traumatic both involving severe perineal tears. Despite this my gut instinct was to try a normal delivery again but wasn’t sure how to make it any different from before. I was reading the positive birth book and it said…

      I’m so glad I decided to book Anne as my postnatal doula. My husband and I don’t have any close family living nearby, so Anne’s visits provided invaluable support during our first weeks as new parents. She was a calming, judgment-free presence, and I felt so confident leaving her with…

      I am a 41 year old first time mother and gave birth to my baby in Belfast, which is not my home city. My mother was my birth partner and I chose Anne as my Doula as my baby would be the sixtieth birth that she had attended and she had…

      My Husband and I needed to find a doula in Northern Ireland and needed to hire her from South Africa before meeting her. As soon as I saw Anne online something in my heart knew she was right for us. She attentively cared for us during our hypnobirthing course online…

      I was birth partner for my daughter, Rachel, who had her first baby in Belfast.  Anne’s presence made the whole experience a great joy for us both.  She greatly contributed to the calm environment during the short labour. Together with the attentive care of doctors and midwives a healthy happy boy…

      The service Anne provided throughout the pregnancy and during birth was wonderful. She was very supportive of our birth wishes and took the time to thoroughly read and discuss our birth plan, which was very reassuring for both my partner and myself. Being the Father during pregnancy and birth can…
