Kate Brennan
I have just completed the Birthing Wisdom's fabulous Doula and
Childbirth Educator course. Since seeing my first birth 25 years
ago I have felt the pull to work in this area and am finally realising
that goal!! What took you so long I hear you cry!
Three children is part of the answer and a whole lot of stuff to be
sorted out(still sorting!), a desire to act, a theatre degree, training
in Shiatsu, building a house to name a few...........
I am now a proud grandmother of a gorgeous 2 and ¾ year old
and have been in the wonderful menopause for nearly 7 years.

Laura Tovar
I’m a trained doula and my reason
for getting into this work is because I struggled in the postpartum
phase after the birth of my son – and now I genuinely want to help
other women so they don’t feel like it’s a struggle. Knowing what I
know now, I believe myself and my son (and my husband) could
have had a better start to our transitional journey….
