Testimonials
I contacted Michelle mid way through my pregnancy, along with a handful of other doulas. From our first conversation I knew she was the doula for me. She was a calm presence, positive and assuring and I could tell she had a lot of experience in the birth space, personally and in holding that space for others.
Michelle is the most incredible doula. She is 100% the reason I was able to have my home birth, despite so many obstacles along the way. She helped me stay true to myself and helped me trust my own intuition. She was present with me as I navigated leaving my public program and recruiting a private midwife at 37 weeks. She was my rock through it all and I don’t believe my birth would have been nearly as safe and successful if she hadn’t been by my side.
If you are looking for a doula who knows her stuff and is authentic, calm and present in every interaction you have, look no further, Michelle is the best there is!
Part of coming to WA was because we lacked that type of family support which we are trying to change for our own little family. Thank you for showing Sunny such a positive environment. Thank you for bringing such happiness and joy to us.
Michelle, I really don’t even know where to start. When I needed you most to stroke my hair, pull me in tight for a cuddle and be my eyes, ears and mouth when things got a bit vulnerable, not only were you there but you went over and beyond and your support was like a warm hug on a cold winters day. You are truly such an inspiration to me and I couldn’t be happier that it was you with us on this journey. I couldn’t of done it without you and this little one, is here healthy and happy not only because of me but BECAUSE OF YOU! #
I cannot thank Michelle at Perth Doula Services enough for all of her help and guidance through such a momentous time in our lives.
Michelle assisted us post-birth when my partner returned to work after 2 weeks off. Her calm presence definitely helped to soothe my pain and trauma from giving birth as well as navigate the crazy world of having a newborn.
We experienced many issues with latching, feeding, pumping, allergies and torticollis and without Michelle’s direction we would still be having major issues. She helped normalise many of my concerns and encouraged me to seek professional help when needed- she seemed to know more than the CHN and was completely non-judgemental.
Whilst at home, Michelle cared for my baby to allow me to have a shower without anxiety as well as helped around the house which was EXACTLY what I needed at the time. Having Michelle around at this time was such a blessing to our family and really took the load off, it was like having a mum at home to help! Thanks again for all of your help, highly recommend and trust this person with mine and my baby’s life.
