Laura Laird, Doula

Hi there, I’m Laura!

Ever since the birth of my first child, 24 years ago, I have been passionate about birth! It is an absolute privilege to come alongside birthing people and be present at this life-changing time in their lives. For me, pregnancy, labor and birth are more than just phases of a person’s life; collectively they constitute a sacred experience of ushering a brand-new human, who has never been before, into the world and into the loving arms of their family, however that may unfold! It is a gift to be able to learn about expectant couples; to hear their dreams, desires, concerns and fears around labor and birth and do all that I can to support those dreams and alleviate those fears. I love helping them to learn about their body’s incredible power and ability to give birth, empowering them to know how to advocate for themselves, encouraging support people with tools and skills that allow the birthing person to feel seen, heard and fully supported throughout the incredible journey of labor and birth.

I am a DONA certified birth doula and Spinning Babies trained. Additionally, I have been a certified childbirth educator for the past 18 years, beginning as a Bradley Natural Childbirth educator and more recently, being certified by the Boston Association of Childbirth Educators.

I have worked with VBAC’s, first time, high risk, AMA and LGBTQIA families.
