    here are some reviews from my clients - read more here

      Anne is much more than a doula. Anne provided me with postnatal support that I literally could not have done without. From the very first days and weeks she was one of the only people I could really relax with and felt secure enough to leave the baby with in…

      Every woman needs Anne at their birth!! Honestly, hiring Anne early on in my first pregnancy was the best decision we ever made! Anne is just the most loving, soft, caring woman. She is full of knowledge in birth & we felt so comfortable with her from the start! Anne…

      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 first gorgeous child, a little boy of 18 months was born in 2016 at 38 weeks.  I was induced by oxytocin and it was hot and heavy.  During my second pregnancy this year, I decided I wanted a doula to keep me calm, focused and empowered, and boy that’s…

      First time mother and so glad I made the decision to have a doula.  Honestly, I could not imagine going through my labour without Anne.  My birth plan changed massively once I arrived at the hospital and everything I was afraid of happening happened.  But I was so grateful Anne…

      Anne supported my husband and me for my 2nd pregnancy, birth and postnatal period.  I can sing Anne’s praises all day long! She’s a wonderful doula and I recommend her to every family welcoming a new baby.  Her presence in our antenatal and postnatal journey has, in my opinion, almost…

      A friend of ours suggested that a post-natal doula might provide us with the support that we required.  She found Anne online and sent the details to Victoria.  There are currently very few doulas in Northern Ireland and so we did not interview more than one doula.  However, even if…

      I feel very grateful to have had Anne’s presence at the birth of both my children. She is the Auntie I wish I had; reassuring, supportive and the most wonderful cheerleader before, during and after birth. Neither of my births panned out how I expected. Anne helped my husband and…

      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…

      Anne visited me a couple of times, always taking her time to listen and getting to know my expectations.  She was very understanding with regards to my first experience at childbirth.  All I wanted was to have someone listening to my fears and wishes.  Anne was creative and supportive throughout…
