Natural, home birthing is a wondrous process, made all the more special with a doula. It’s a labour of love, really, for all concerned. Theoni was present, calming and so responsive that she usually anticipated solutions to needs we’d not yet voiced – while still honouring our process. She’s clearly experienced, solid and reliable to the nth degree, but there’s something much more special even – she was connecting on a soul level. I miss her presence even now, 18 months later.

Having Theoni at my side during the most magnificent day of my life was incredible. She was like a silent partner, anticipating what I needed before I even knew it, providing it with loving care, offering support and gentle guidance, but doing this all in the most unobtrusive way. Theoni’s calm and nurturing assistance was invaluable at the birth of my daughter.

Amazing....so supportive.....my husband and I could just be together and watch our baby come into the world....all my physical and emotional needs were met and I could just relax and give birth to my babies.
Caryn mother of Elda and Gaia

A calm, reliable presence whom we trusted enormously
Jocelyn mother of Gabriel
Theoni was the calm and loving angel that guided me through two of my children's births. Her presence was profoundly important - she was a steady hand during the most intense parts of my labour, a calming influence on all in the room. Everything just happened quietly around me so that I could birth my babies. Thank you my friend!

Theoni was my doula and present for a very long and arduous labour that ended in an emergency c-section. My 24 hours of labour will always be remembered and treasured as a very beautiful, nurturing and entirely sacred experience for me. I felt so safe and loved and that made everything easy, including the unexpected c-section.
Kerry Kronenberg mother of Josh
"Theoni was the most caring, intuitive, almost invisible doula! As a team, Sharon Marsay (midwife) and Theoni made such a huge impact on my birthing experience! I would recommend Theoni as a doula to any expectant mother who wants to make sure she is cared for by an individual who is infinitely loving, powerful and humble at the same time!
Thanks so much Theoni! Marie Beytell mother of Loutjie & Mira" |
