We are truly privileged to have Anne as our doula. A friend had shared her own experience of using this type of support and I knew I wanted and needed the same for the birth of my daughter. Anne held a safe space where I and my husband were able to receive the emotional support that was needed to get through a stressful and difficult pregnancy and we were able to make better-informed decisions with regards to my birth plan and ongoing health issues. As a disabled mother to be, I faced a lot of challenges however, I was able to gain strength and courage that nothing was impossible and we could work through anything. Anne has such a gentle and caring soul; we consider her one of the family now.
