Laura served as a postpartum doula and personal assistant for our family after the tragic loss of our pregnancy. I had severe medical complications which nearly resulted in death and Laura was a part of our family for the recovery period of five weeks.  She is a loving, kind, and knowledgeable doula who took care of our family during a very difficult time as we mourned the loss of a baby and focused energy on my return to optimal health. We were able to communicate our needs to Laura without apprehension as she helped us cultivate a feeling of peace in our home during an extremely sensitive & stressful time, while remaining unbiased about any preferences we had. Her encouragement and support were invaluable to our family.
