What our North Sydney clients say

Yianna

“We loved every bit of it! We’d definitely recommend it to any expecting mums and dads out there. The content was evidence-based and refreshingly unbiased, which we really appreciated. You can tell Lauren genuinely loves what she does — she’s amazing at it. My husband really loved it too and found it very engaging and we both left feeling excited, prepared, and ready to welcome our little one.”
Anna

“Attending the classes as a midwife myself, even I learnt a lot and I was super impressed with the content and Lauren’s simple yet thorough explanation of all things labour, birth and postpartum. My hubby has also come away as an expert and really enjoyed the day. Thanks Loz for making us feel prepared and excited for the journey ahead!”
Nadine

‘We did Lauren’s class in Sydney last weekend and couldn’t recommend it more. She presented all the information with such knowledge and an unbiased option presenting facts and making you feel knowledgeable throughout the birthing process. My husband even feels confident in what to do and how to respond, he said he is so glad he got to see a new perspective on things. I feel so confident going into but the and really looking forward to the process.’
Beck

‘My husband and I did Lauren’s class last week & we’re blown away by how prepared it made us feel for labour and having our baby! Me and my husband were tossing up whether to do the class however both walked out feeling so thankful we did!
We both learnt a lot & it’s allowed us to have some in depth chats about birth & be educated on options and the process/what to actually expect!’
Claire

‘My husband and I did evening antenatal classes with Lauren and they were absolutely fantastic, we could not recommend one mama midwife enough. Lauren is a fantastic educator and answered all our questions with no judgement at all. Thank you so much for being there for us on our journey with our first bub!’
