CLIENT FEEDBACK

  • Heather & Michael

    Nikola's support and guidance made our entire birthing experience and journey into parenthood enjoyable and empowering. Nikola truly embodied this support for us. From our first meeting with her we knew we were in the right hands (and heart). We felt seen and heard, her wealth of knowledge and experience was apparent right from the start, she was non-judgemental and gentle yet we knew she would fiercely advocate for us and step up if)when we needed her to. She provided the most epic education and preparation for our birth and as a result of her support we went on to birth our first baby at home with no complications and it was the most epic experience of my life.

    Nikola we thank you for everything you have done for us and that you continue to do within the birthing world.

  • Jess & Josh

    I'm delighted to share my positive experience with Doula Nikola during my VBAC journey. Her informative guidance, warm demeanor, and strong advocating presence created a supportive environment that truly enhanced my birthing experience. Nikola's dedication and expertise made a significant impact, and I am grateful for her role in this transformative journey.

    In addition to her exceptional doula support, I must highlight Nikola's incredible talent in birth photography. The beautiful photo memories she captured during my VBAC journey are simply amazing.

    Thank you to the universe for guiding us together. I will forever feel grateful for Nikola being a pivotal part of my pregnancy, birth and postpartum journey.

  • Ashleigh & Shaun

    “hiring Nikola was the best decision we made. Nikola provided so much education on physiological birth and all my options, that I felt confident making the decisions I did, as well as being fully supported by her. My husband also found having Nikola extremely valuable and he also really enjoying having her support. Nikola, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for all your support and ensuring everything went as smoothly as it did. I would absolutely recommend Nikola to anyone and everyone who is having a baby, regardless of weather it is your 1st or 5th”

  • Katie & Alex

    Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being such an incredible support person during pregnancy with your birth classes and then being present during the birth of our baby boy.

    Your work, passion, knowledge and support is truly an inspiration and womankind is lucky to have you.

  • Jehaan & Naeem

    She helped both myself and my partner so much during pregnancy, labour, birth and still to this day she’s an incredible support person and my baby is already 2 months.

    If you feel called to or align with Nikola I would definitely recommend. She knew exactly what I wanted so when the time came and she needed to voice something on behalf of me (or my partner) she would. I wouldn’t have had the head space I had without her support.

    If you feel scared of advocating for yourself in hospital as I know how tough it can be a doula is definitely a HUGE help in navigating your way through the system and knowing what your rights are and how to best apply it. Nikola helped us advocate in an amicable way when they were pushing for my third c section, which in turn made me feel so strong and powerful.
