My husband and i completed the Inside Birth course facilitated by Therese from when i was 32 weeks pregnant. After each session i could feel my confidence levels grow. The sessions created a forum for us to discuss our questions and meant we were on the same page for the birth of our first baby. Therese provided great support and guidance during the later stage of my pregnancy. She has a calming presence and is open to discussing different opinions. We really valued Therese’s commitment to delivering the Inside Birth and Doula services and would attribute the natural birth of our healthy baby boy to this. Thank you Therese!

I was very anxious and unwell before and during my first pregnancy and looked into doulas for help and support – both of us loved Therese so much after our first meeting and we had met with a few. She understood and supported all my health issues and concerns and was very flexible with travel and visits and information.
She was amazing help with my birth plan and the obstetrician and the hospital. She has so much knowledge outside of what an obstetrician or hospital tells you and is very well educated in pregnancy, birthing, labour and babies.
We loved her warm smile and loving heart.
During the labour she was an incredible support not just to me but to my partner as well which was important for me that he was also supported and feeling as comfortable as possible. It was almost like a mother-like-type love she gave us during pregnancy and labour.
I felt so comfortable calling her, definitely more so than calling the hospital, obstetrician or even family and friends. If I ever have another baby the first person I’ll be calling will be Therese!

I was “overdue” by 9 days, in medical terms, when Paola made it clear to me that she was on her way to meet us. I can’t stop myself from thinking that those “due dates” are very unnatural. How are we supposed to know when our babies are ready to come? With my first child … Continue reading Paola’s Birth Story
And a woman who held a babe against her bosom said, Speak to us of children. And he said: Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself. They come through you but not from you, And though they are with you, yet they belong not to … Continue reading ~Children~
I received a text message at 5.30am yesterday from my birthing mother’s partner to say her waters had released and she was having some waves, but had gone back to bed. I asked him to get her to talk to me in person if she was unable to sleep. I could barely sleep myself with … Continue reading Max
