Kirsty supported us through the pregnancies and births of both our babies and I can’t even come close to expressing how influential and empowering this was. She helped us to feel prepared, strong, and built on our strengths as a couple and as individuals. She finds a beautiful balance of educating, supporting, and empowering. She met us where we were at, gave support in the areas we needed it and calmed our nerves. I had two pretty different birth stories. My first labour was fairly long and intense throughout the whole time. Kirsty was a lifeline for both my husband and I; she was calm, reassuring, really great at relieving intensity at different stages (can I get a hip squeeze), and was a marathon supporter being by my side the whole time with no rest and very little food! My next birth was really calm, quick, and breezy. I definitely didn’t need the same level of support, but I can tell you that when Kirsty walked in a wave of support came with her and I’m pretty sure my cervix opened a full centimeter in that moment. She went above (literally) and beyond to awkwardly perch up on the side of my bathtub to hold my leg while I pushed! Kirsty is an incredible support and advocate. She is able to find a beautiful balance of being an active support, building up partners to support, and assisting to let a woman’s power come through. Her passion for her work shines through and she brings a lightness and love to pregnancy and birth support. If you are wanting to feel empowered, reassured, and prepared to embrace however your baby joins the world, I highly recommend Kirsty.

We had an incredible experience with Kirsty during the birth of our first baby. Throughout my pregnancy, labour, and birth she provided a huge amount of support to both my husband and I. She was calming, normalized the process of labour, gave some wonderful massages, made us laugh... and was our rock. Kirsty brings a wealth of knowledge from her nursing background and experience as a doula; this allowed us to feel confident staying home longer than we would have without her, and made communication and navigation at the hospital really smooth. Her compassionate, professional, and calm presence was unbelievably helpful and we are eternally grateful for her support in bringing our sweet West into the world. Everyone needs to have a doula’s support and I absolutely recommend Kirsty to anyone! We cannot even imagine what our birth experience would have been like without her help and there is no way I am having another baby without having her!

Experiencing Kirsty’s support throughout my labour leaves me with no question in my mind that she’s found her calling as a doula. Her respect of the birthing process and confidence in women’s power and strength was so apparent throughout my entire labour and delivery. This calm confidence gave me strength that I didn’t know I possessed. Kirsty’s kind and loving nature, balanced with her in depth knowledge of labor and delivery from her nursing career, brought so much to the table. My husband and I were in awe with how seamlessly she worked with the medical team to support us. Overall, Kirsty’s presence established a beautiful space for my husband and I to connect as a couple and embrace the miracle that was unfolding, and we will be forever grateful.
