What people say

"Erin supported me as a post natal doula for 6 months. It was a challenging time with my husband working away and numerous issues with breastfeeding. Erin's support was invaluable during this time. I could breathe a sigh of relief during her visits, knowing that I could have a much needed break to go to the gym or rest. I instinctively trusted Erin to look after my daughter from the outset; she was so lovely and gentle with her. Erin has heaps of experience to call on in helping address the issues that come up on being a new mum. She also made delicious home cooked meals and snacks, and I'm still using some of her recipes. I would highly recommend her!"
