  I wish I could properly put in to words how incredible Leanne is!! Leanne was amazing from the moment we booked her. She was always on hand for any questions and me and my husband loved our antenatal sessions with her and getting to know her, gaining knowledge. Postnatally she was wonderful, always a message away and for our sessions. However, I could not have done the birth without her. She protected my birth space perfectly and advocated for me many times. She was especially helpful in times that my husband had to go to do other stuff (sorting older daughter out, making drinks, setting up the pool, going for a wee etc) and I always had Leanne there who I was fully 100% comfortable with, I was never on my own. She reassured me in times where I wasn't sure about things and was my biggest cheerleader. Her knowledge is just insane! She knew what was important to me in my birth and made sure I got that and always had that in her mind. My husband was sceptical when I first mentioned booking a doula, but was completely convinced after the birth, he knows how vital she was in our experience. She literally felt like home - that's the best way I can describe her doula service. And I have no doubt that without her, my birth would have been a very different experience. I would recommend Leanne as a doula to everyone! I feel very lucky that I got to have her as my doula. Thank you Leanne! Xx

  I couldn't choose a better doula! I'm Brazilian and had my first baby here with Leanne's support! Me being a foreign person I tought would be good as well to have a local doula whos has the knowledge of the law around here having a baby at the hospital, someone who knows well our rights. Leanne has a lot of knowledge, she has a lot of energy and it's calm like a Buddhist monk when need it😅. I had been in labour for 4 days, 3 hours pushing and she gave all the support I needed. She pushed me to do all the exercises, movements and more to help increase my chances of having a natural labor! Going up and downstairs, side laying, steps at the curb in our way back from Pub, yes, I was having a coffee at the pub near my house while I was having contractions🤣 just to change the environment and try to relax a bit more! She supported my choices and stayed at my side at the most needed times! And the hypnobirthing course gave me knowledge, confidence and power to go through 4 days in labour, it is a must do course if you are pregnant! After all I'm so glad that I met Leanne and had her as my doula and now as a friend!

  I can't reccomend Leanne and her hypnobirthing course enough!! The knowledge you receive on the course is next level. Being a first time mum I felt absolutely clueless. I have left the course feeling confident and with the tools and knowledge to make the right choices for us during Birth. I can't Thank you enough. 💕

  Where do I even begin... I cannot rate Leanne highly enough for everything she has taught me on this course, for empowering me and making me realise I can do this, for completely putting all of my concerns and fears at ease!! I've gone from being terrified about birth to actually looking forward to it. My partner David also loved the course and he could not believe the knowledge Leanne possessed and how much he really didn't know, he's already had 3 children from a previous marriage and all births ended up being C sections because they had no idea what they were entitled to say yes and no too. We've now decided on a home birth armed with the knowledge Leanne has given us. She's so wonderful and delivers the course with such passion and devotion so much so I have hired her as my Doula because she is such a calming influence to be around and I know she will have the answers to all my questions and get me through the birth and afterwards when I have no idea what I am doing. More women and their partners need to sign up to hypnobirthing it is simply wonderful. Thank you Leanne.

  Leanne’s class was amazing and so informative. I feel so empowered and i’m actually excited for this rollercoaster we call giving birth! She has taught me so much more than you can learn from ‘Google’ or books. And made me realise how many choices and options we have, and everything we can do to ensure we have the best labour possible in the most relaxed calm settings. Thank you Leanne, we would recommend her to everyone!!

  Leanne offers such a wealth of experience and knowledge, and delivers the course in a laid back session where you feel completely comfortable and supported. Me and my husband learnt so much from Leanne and this enabled us to go into our birth excited and with a positive mindset. We felt in control and understood our rights and it enabled us to work out what the right birth plan was for us. We cannot thank Leanne enough! Highly recommend!!

  Such an amazing and unforgettable course. Leanne was amazing and delivered all the information so well. I’m so so glad we went ahead and did the course, it’s made me go from feeling nervous, unsure and unconfident about labour and birth to feeling very confident, strong and incredibly empowered and honestly what more could I have asked for. I would recommend this course to literally any pregnant person!!

  I became aware of hypnobirthing during my second pregnancy & subsequently found Leanne, my course was a gift from my mum and it is the BEST gift I think I’ve ever received. I had my heart set on a home birth & Leanne’s course enabled me to become aware of my rights to do this along with everything else we could possibly need for pre natal / birthing & post natal. Unfortunately due to reasons far too long to go into, I was booked in for a medical induction which took a turn and as a result my baby girl was born via emergency C-Section, we both contracted infections and spent time on the HDU. I thought I’d ruined my own birth, I thought it was my fault and that I’d failed my baby. Despite this, I was STILL able to use my hypnobirthing techniques🙌🏼 Never underestimate the powers of the correct breathing techniques in a situation like that, without completing Leanne’s course, I’d of had no idea how to remain as calm as I could & feel a small bit of control in a ‘Plan Z’ situation. When I started Leanne’s course, I had no idea HOW invaluable the ‘after care’ side would be… I’m not sure what I expected but Leanne exceeded every expectation I had and hand on heart her genuine concern, love & support pulled me away from the negatives and she made me see that none of what happened was my fault. Leanne spent time discussing every single little detail with me and made me feel powerful again ❤️ Leanne I will never ever have the words to describe my gratitude to you for those first few weeks of Harper’s life & since then too. You are incredible. You advocate for every single woman who wants / needs / deserves their dream birth, you are truly inspirational. I am so, so glad I found you. I cannot wait to see where you take this beautiful business next 💜
