Hey Folks!
I’m Midwife Laura Doyle.
Midwife, Mama & Maker.
Truth is—I want everyone to have a midwife!
I guide families through pregnancy, preparing for labor and birth, and plan for the realities of postpartum. I walk families step by step through the important things, the big things and the little things to create the most intimate birth experience.
For 20 years, I have been a midwife in the rural mountains of Humboldt County in Northern California. I have worked in a unique culture where birth, the spirit of nature, and alternative lifestyles are the norm. This has allowed me to intimately experience the issues between partners, their families and the birthing woman.
Becoming a mother and becoming parents is a wild ride!
Birth matters.
This season of life is so intense. So transformative.
You will carry your birth stories with you, for the rest of your life.
So prepare how you can.
Let me help you and your partner get ready for your birth experience with stories and tips that will ease the journey. Allow me to help you give meaning and intention to the details of this process and inspire you.))
In the Midwife Sessions Birth Class, we have the discussions to prepare for this special time in your lives. It’s important to be ready for anything and know you are doing your best. In birth—shit happens! Be gentle with yourself.
Whether this is your first baby or your fifth—this course will help you.
