We had Susan for our ante-natal classes. We found her to be above and beyond what any new parents could ask for. We thought that all the information provided was more than informative and with her sense of humour, it made the day go by much quicker. I would recommend her with a 5 star rating and give her 100%. We were absolutely pleased and we loved her nature, honesty and her theory.

We didn't have a doula for the birth of our first child, and while the labour started out well, I ended up with an emergency caesarean, due to an awkwardly positioned baby. This was very disappointing. In hindsight, we felt that with the right advice the surgical intervention could have possibly been avoided. This time around the labour went more smoothly and ended with a beautiful drug-free waterbirth. Susan met us at the Birth Centre and worked with the Midwife to guide, reassure and support me. Susan knew, just by watching, what I needed and exactly what to say. She stayed for a while after the birth to make sure the first breastfeed was going well and that we were settling in with the new baby.

Eva's birth happened exactly the way I hoped it would, and having Susan as a doula was an important ingredient in that. I had complete trust in Susan's experience, her approach to childbirth, and her good sense and humour, and that helped give me the confidence to enjoy my pregnancy and then focus in my own way on the hard but beautiful work of labour. I know her calm and knowledgeable presence during the birth also reassured my husband, allowing him to freely give the kind of support I needed. I also believe that if medical intervention in Eva's birth had been necessary, Susan would have been an invaluable support and guide. Having such a positive birth experience was not only wonderful in itself, but also incredibly valuable in leaving me emotionally and physically able to embrace the whirlwind of new motherhood.
