What families say
Having Lori on our side has been a game-changer! She offered incredible and flexible support throughout the pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum, always being proactive to answer, teach, and be available. As first-time parents, we needed so much to learn, and Lori has been an awesome guide and teacher.
Every once in a while you meet someone so incredible, they make you want to be a better, kinder person. Lori is that person. Lori is one of those people who is just good. There are not enough words to describe how kind, thoughtful and dedicated of a human Lori is.
Lori was absolutely incredible and I could not imagine having my baby without her there. She was incredibly supportive and helped to empower me to make the decisions that felt right for me. My birth didn't go according to plan (no surprise there!) and Lori was with me every step of the way.
Having Lori as our doula was one of the best decisions we made during our pregnancy and birthing experience. Not only is Lori incredibly organized and responsive to emails/texts/calls, but having her guideance and advice was so helpful as we prepared for the delivery of our miracle baby.
