I had the privilege of working with Marianne for the birth of my second child. Her ability to create a calm and peaceful environment was truly remarkable. She seamlessly merged holistic medicinal practices with Western medicine, ensuring that I had access to a wide range of options. Her professionalism was outstanding, and she went above and beyond to educate me on the available choices and my rights as a patient. This level of support was invaluable during such an important and vulnerable time in my life. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a doula who combines a holistic approach with western medicine whilst maintaining unwavering professionalism
