Lauren was such a supportive and kind Doula during my third pregnancy and birth experience. I knew my third time around that I wanted it to be a vaginal birth after cesarean. I felt strongly about this and about having very little to no interventions. Lauren reassured me and made me feel confident in them. During my birth, there was a moment that my midwife asked for an intervention and I remember Lauren asking me directly what I wanted to do without any rush or pressure. The decision was solely mine with declining my water being broken. Something as small as this still sticks with me because I did not feel pressured to make a decision I would later regret. Moments before our little boy was born, Lauren took a moment to pray over us. This was such a sacred moment and I’m forever thankful for it. She truly carried a beautiful energy with her in the room which we all know is very important. If I have a fourth someday ill be sure to let her know😉

Lauren was our doula for the birth of our third (and last) child, and it was by far the best experience we’ve had. My wife was set on having a natural birth, and Lauren supported her every step of the way—with calm, confidence, and real care. She helped us feel prepared and empowered, and when the day came, she was steady, encouraging, and knew exactly how to help without ever getting in the way.She made the whole experience smoother for both of us and worked so well with the hospital team. Looking back, we can’t imagine that day without her. If you’re looking for someone who truly listens and shows up when it matters most, Lauren’s the one.

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Lauren as our sleep consultant for our second child, and I can confidently say she was a true godsend during a critical time for our family. From the very first conversation, Lauren brought a calm, compassionate, and highly knowledgeable presence that instantly reassured us.She took the time to understand our family dynamic, our goals, and most importantly, our child’s unique temperament. Her approach was thoughtful and personalized, never one-size-fits-all. Lauren equipped us with practical tools, routines, and encouragement that not only improved our baby’s sleep but restored our household’s sense of peace and rest.What truly sets Lauren apart is her unwavering support. She was responsive, attentive, and incredibly encouraging—especially on the harder days when we needed extra guidance and affirmation. Thanks to her, our little one is now sleeping beautifully, and we as parents feel more confident and rested.We are beyond grateful for Lauren’s support and would enthusiastically recommend her to any family in need of sleep help. She is a trusted partner and a true expert in her field.

We loved working with Lauren so much!! Having her there at night to help during the first few weeks as new parents with a newborn was such a huge help. She was so kind, positive, and knowledgeable about all things baby and postpartum related. Lauren was a huge emotional comfort to me knowing she was there, and went above and beyond no matter the need. As a new mom, I looked forward to every night she was there to give me peace of mind, better sleep, and that my baby would be safe and happy to be with her. I highly recommend welcoming her into your home for the early days and would 100% do so again if we have another baby!

Lauren helped us with overnights from the start and it completely changed the experience compared to my first baby. She was nonjudgmental and a calm presence in those first few crazy weeks. She took great care of our son and I had no reservations about her watching him overnight. I could not recommend her enough!

5/5 stars, 10/10 would recommend getting a doula, and Lauren is the best pick! As a first time mom, I had a lot of anxiety regarding my birth process and how it would go and Lauren just existing calmed so much of the raging waters within me.I’m so beyond thankful that Lauren was apart of our birth process. She held space for us during labor and brought me back into the moment when she could see I was starting to get overwhelmed. My labor and birth was everything I wanted, and I wouldn’t have been able to have that experience without my doula, Lauren 🩷
