Positive Birth at Queen Charlotte’s Hospital, London

“Before I met Cara I spoke to her on the phone and she was so extremely friendly and sweet that I knew I wanted her to be there on the most important day of my life, which was giving birth to my baby boy. When me and my husband met Cara at our home, she was nothing short of amazing!! She made us feel so comfortable, was always available for me to call and message and she gave me so much information about how to keep active towards the end of my pregnancy with various techniques. Cara provided us with loads of books, guides and spoke to me about breastfeeding and what to expect postnatally that I felt so well informed. She listened to my birth preferences and knew exactly what I wanted and she sure did ensure my preferences were followed during labour. Cara helped me manage my physical pain very effectively with massages and mentally with communication. Having Cara there on the day I went into labour was very reassuring and comforting, she met us at our home and travelled with us to the hospital. She was there throughout and when I gave birth, it didn’t feel like I had an extra external person there, it felt like I had a close friend who was on my side. Cara, my husband and I were a team. Cara even stayed in the hospital for some time after birth to support and completely went the extra mile when she volunteered and took the responsibility to send my placenta off to the company I used to make smoothies. We loved seeing Cara after giving birth too, she met us at our home again and it felt lovely to relive the birth with her and we are incredibly grateful for her support and presence on the day!!! We would highly, highly, highly recommend Cara!!! Thanks for everything!!!”
