nurturing the new mother
through pregnancy and postpartum support.
Whether you're preparing for your first baby, planning a peaceful water birth, or hoping for a redemptive VBAC — your experience matters. You deserve support that’s steady, compassionate, and rooted in tradition and care.
As a certified Hypnobirth doula, I offer calm, confident guidance through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum — blending Hypnobirthing techniques with mindful positioning (inspired by Spinning Babies) and holistic postpartum care.
From herbal sitz baths and warm foot soaks to Ayurvedic scalp massage and gentle bodywork, my care is designed to ease your recovery and nourish your whole being in those tender weeks after birth.
About Me
wife, doula, aunty
Birthwork found me in the most natural way—through family. When my sister-in-law became pregnant in 2020, I instinctively stepped into the role of her support system, witnessing firsthand the profound power of being held through the birthing and postpartum process. It was then that I realized: we all need an Aunty, someone who tends to us as we cross the threshold into motherhood. Whether it’s your first time giving birth or your third, each journey is a new initiation, and no one should navigate it alone.
“I Had an amazing experience working with Lauren as my birth doula! She is truly compassionate, empathetic, and advocates for her clients' best interests. Her presence is so warm and gentle and, at my birth, not only was she a comforting presence but she also helped ensure my doctors were checking in on me in a timely manner. Anyone would be lucky to have Lauren as their doula!”
