Hi, I’m Laura!
I’m a birth & postpartum doula, childbirth educator and holistic birth coach who helps women build the mindset, strength, and confidence to birth without fear - and without apology.
I don’t teach “go with the flow.” I teach inner steadiness, mental strength, and practical tools that make you unshakable when labour gets real.
Why I Do This Work
I’ve seen too many women walk into birth prepared for pain, but not for power. They were told to trust the process — but no one taught them how to trust themselves.
After working with over 300 women, I’ve realized confidence isn’t something you either have or don’t have. It’s something you build through mindset, information, and practice.
Birth doesn’t demand perfection. It demands presence, and that’s what I help women find.
My Approach
The coaching, courses and support I offer aren’t about birth plans and breathing alone — they’re about training your mind to handle intensity with confidence.
Here’s what it looks like to work with me:
We uncover and dismantle fear.
We build a mindset that stays calm when labour turns up the volume.
We prepare your body and nervous system for real-life intensity.
We craft a personalized plan that supports you — not controls you.
Every session is focused, practical, and deeply personal. No fluff. No fear. Just strategy and strength.
Who I Work With
I work with women who:
Want to birth with confidence, not compliance
Are preparing for home, hospital, or unmedicated births
Acknowledge birth will be hard — but want to meet it head-on
Are ready to replace anxiety with strength
If you’re nodding along, you’re my kind of client.
A Little More About Me
I’m a certified birth & postpartum doula, certified childbirth educator, and registered holistic nutrition counsellor specializing in prenatal and infant/childhood nutrition, based in Southwestern Ontario. I’ve been serving my local community in person as a doula for seven years, attending over 100 births and supporting even more families through postpartum care.
Since 2019, I’ve also run mom-and-baby programs in London, Ontario with over 400 families coming through my doors. Supporting women and families isn’t just what I do — it’s who I am.
Prior to entering the world of birth, I spent seven years serving as a firefighter. Through my experiences on the job, I learned how to stay calm in high-pressure situations, think clearly under intensity, and trust training over uncertainty — all skills that translate directly into birth work.
When a woman is in labour, she doesn’t need someone who gets nervous when things get real — she needs someone grounded, steady, and focused. That’s the energy I bring into every birth, every session, and every mentorship I offer.
When I’m not working with my clients, you’ll find me living the real-life crash course in patience, chaos management, and unconditional adaptability - raising 4 kids who were all born within 2 years and 11 months (yes, there’s twins in there lol).
You’ll also find me spending most of my evenings and weekends arena hopping, wildly cheering on my kids in hockey and ringette, baking the most weird and wonderful sourdough recipes I can get my hands on, and getting outside for long walks with my Belgian Malinois, Lexa.
All these moments keep me grounded. They remind me that strength isn’t built in quiet, perfect spaces - it’s built in the everyday chaos of real life.
Let’s Build Your Confidence
If you want to walk into birth knowing you can handle it — mentally, physically, and emotionally — the Birth Confidence Mentorship is where we start.
