“Having the experience of a doula at our home birth was hugely reassuring to us for starters; but far beyond that, Leah’s peaceful presence, confidence in my abilities, and relentless positivity lead us to have the medication-free homebirth of my dreams. Having her know-how, her experience, and her calm and loving presence there was really reassuring. I am proud of myself and my son for what we accomplished with [our doula’s] help.”
— Sarah Waggott (Thornbury mom)
“I was in 43 hours of labour and I don't think I would have done it without Leah's help and knowledge. She provided the utmost level of service and care even in the pre-labour stages.”
— Sasha Exeter (So Sasha, Toronto mom)
