Mairi helped me realize a truly magical and authentic birth experience. Mairi was absolutely critical in helping me and my husband experience such a beautiful moment. Her thorough sessions, her honesty and her calm energy were exactly what my husband and I needed to prepare us have a natural hospital birth. ~ Valerie

Work experience

My career spans nearly two decades within the care industry, where I've gained extensive experience supporting individuals across various life stages. This includes dedicated roles as a nanny, providing nurturing support for children, and as a compassionate care provider for the elderly, focusing on their well-being and daily needs. More recently, my work as a doula has allowed me to further expand my expertise in supporting families through significant life transitions. Complementing this, I have been babysitting since the age of 11, which instilled a foundational understanding of responsibility, and I have had several positions that involved teaching and guiding others. Each of these roles has been instrumental in deepening my understanding of human connection and fostering a dedicated approach to holistic well-being.
