What families say

Christine is excellent both as a doula and as a person. My husband and I could tell how passionate she is about her work from the moment we met her. She was flexible and caring, and offered us support that was tailored to our needs as individuals and as a family.

★★★★★ — Laura, 2022-10

I can’t imagine giving birth without The Gentle Doula by my side. I had a very long labour and she helped to make sure I was as comfortable as I could be throughout the whole experience. My husband was so grateful to have her by his side as they both helped whenever they could.

★★★★★ — Stephanie, 2020-11

My partner and I had a great experience with The Gentle Doula, right from meeting Christine I knew she was going to be a wonderful addition to the rest of my pregnancy and labour journey. She is warm, caring and very knowledgeable.

★★★★★ — Larissa, 2023-02

Christine is the most caring and thoughtful person, exactly what you need when you’re trying to navigate the challenges of pregnancy. She helped me face my worse nightmare and gave me tools and information to empower and advocate for myself and my baby.
