Lauri was an integral part to my pregnancy, birth and post natal experience. Her wealth of knowledge was invaluable in helping me to prepare mentally and physically for my home birth following a previous traumatic delivery. She gave me honest guidance; was always approachable, non judgemental, and on hand for even the smallest of questions. She enabled me to visualise and frame my impending birth in a positive way, and helped aliviate any fears I had. I have no doubt in my mind that my birth wouldn't have been the magical, positive experience it was without her.
