Great support during pregnancy, informative and well prepared guides for birth, very helpful with birth options and quick to respond in person and via WhatsApp for any birth or other questions. Fantastic in person support during the birth, it was a long labour but that was no problem for them at all. Full support and a really great help navigating the options for birth and NHS system for our first birth so we didn’t know how it worked. Would absolutely recommend to anyone and use Belfast Baby Company again for a second birth.
Would have been much much more stressful and difficult if we did not discover their service.

Leslie was a source of calm and reassurance throughout my labour and after the birth of my son. I had a very tricky first labour which was long, required an epidural and theatre with a ventouse delivery and a long and difficult recovery. My second labour was quick and I was able to have a water birth which I never expected I’d be able to have. I do believe your body adjusts to a certain extent and knows what to do in subsequent labours after your first but a part of me will always put it down to having complete and utter trust that Leslie was there to guide us through the process. She helped to keep my husband calm and reassured as well which is an important aspect of any labour which can often be forgotten about.

Leslie supported me during my labour and the birth of our little girl for 24 hours straight. It did not go to plan at all (as these things often do) and she supported me to make decisions at each juncture, advocating to ensure I understood the information that was being given to me. I really did not get the birth I’d wanted but I still felt safe and supported throughout. She also came to see me in the hospital after to help debrief everything that happened which I really appreciated because the whole thing had been very chaotic. It was great having someone clear headed and knowledgeable with you through the process because it can be a lot to deal with alone.
I really enjoyed both Emma and Leslie’s company throughout my pregnancy, labour, birth and post partum. So often the needs, wishes and feelings of mothers are forgotten about during the process of carrying and birthing a child, especially with the struggling NHS services at present. I am so grateful I chose to give myself the gift of being heard and supported through this special time in my life and I feel it allowed me to begin my parenting journey feeling confident and empowered.

After attending 3 sessions of The Rewind Method I have started to come to terms with my birth experience. Now I can tell my story calmly, without crying, without feeling panicked. It has changed my whole mindset. Amazing!!
