"Weronika was absolutely amazing! From the first time we met, she was so attentive and knowledgeable- asking all the questions to make sure she got to know us and what our wants were. She respected our religious beliefs and made sure to accommodate according to that.
She knew my birth plan(s) and flexibility around it making sure that I was aware of any and all alternatives in case things did not go the way I hoped.
when it came down to my actual labour, she was there EVERY step of the way. She helped me physically and emotionally when I laboured unmedicated and medicated. I laboured for 30+ hours! And during that time, she was completely selfless, letting my mom and husband sleep, while only taking one small nap. Although I decided to use pain relief for labour, there were still some complications- she reminded me of my strength and helped calm my stress and nerves so that my husband and I could make the needed decisions for any medical interventions. My husband and I really could not have done it without her. The emotional and physical support, no matter what the birth plan is, is absolutely needed and I'm extremely grateful she was a part of my team. Thank you so much!"
"Weronika helped my wife and I through the birth of our daughter. On the other side of that now, I can't image doing it without her. She is incredibly kind, caring and compassionate. Before the birth she visited our home several times to help us prepare and plan. She was flexible when our due date was moved up because of complications, and then spent 14 hours at the hospital with us. Finally she visited afterwards to make sure we were setting in with no problems. Everyone giving birth should have a Weronika!"
Weronika was everything I hoped for in a doula and more. As a first time mom I really wanted someone who was knowledgeable, confident and had a strength I could rely on. Weronika had this in spades. Magically, she also embodied all the softness of a natural caregiver. She was phenomenal at anticipating my needs and making sure I was well cared for (physically and emotionally) during my birth process. My partner and I have since had many conversations cantering around how grateful we are that we chose Weronika to be our doula. I cannot recommend her more highly whether you are having a home, clinic or hospital birth
My name is Weronika Walker and I am the doula behind Fern & Nettle Doula Services, offering full-spectrum doula care.
I currently live and work in Cambridge, Ontario.
Why Fern & Nettle? Both of those plants are important to me personally, but they are also charged with symbolic meaning. Ferns are said to symbolize new life, family, happiness and shelter; they are used as medicinal plants in many cultures. Nettles are a symbol of fertility and protection and are a powerful source of many minerals and vitamins. What's not to love?

I acknowledge that I get to live, work and play on a traditional territory of Haudenosaunee, Anishinaabe and Neutral People. As an immigrant to this country, I'm immensely grateful for those who cared for this beautiful land for generations before colonization and continue to do so today.
