Ana Esparza

Absolutely love Ana! She has been the best doula! Her pregnancy sessions were full of insight and wisdom! Having her helped me feel empowered and excited to give birth. She’s also been so willing to answer any question postpartum and even came over to help my husband and I give our daughter her first bath! What I especially love about Ana is her ability to see God’s design in every aspect of motherhood. During a lovely session, she reminded me mothering is God’s call over my life and that it’s my worship unto Him! How beautiful! If the Lord allows me to have more children, I will without a doubt choose Ana as my doula again every time!

Ana was so incredible! I was referred to her last minute and the only thing I wish was that I found her sooner! She was so helpful and answered all mine and my husbands calls and questions and when I was in labor she was so helpful and encouraging, can’t imagine doing it without her!! In the hospital she was all hands on with encouragement and cold towels and making sure I was as comfortable as possible she even brought oil and chapstick which I happened needing so badly! She even took pictures and videos of the experience! Honestly can’t wait to have her by my side with my next pregnancy whenever that happens! My husband calls her our bestie🙃♥️

I was looking for a Doula last minute and found Ana, I am so so glad that I did! She did an amazing job helping me navigate through my first time pregnancy, I was diagnosed with preeclampsia and she made me feel calm and comfortable while educating me on labor and my rights. She is so sweet and was always there when I needed her, which was often! I can’t recommend her enough, thank you so much Ana!

I recommend Ana as your Doula! We just welcome out first baby into the world and Ana was our support throughout the pregnancy, she gave us information and guidance. My husband learned a lot from our meetings and was able to support me thanks to her advice. She is good at communicating and understanding your needs and concerns. We felt welcomed in our meetings with Ana. We 100% reccomend her!

How do you write a review for a person that came alongside you and your husband in the most cherished and daunting time in your life and brought you encouragement and education? My husband and I just had our first beautiful baby girl. We connected with Ana about 20 weeks into the pregnancy (wish we did it sooner!), and from that moment on, she partnered with us in teaching us the ins and outs about pregnancy and birth. I heard once that about 70% of women that plan to have an unmedicated birth are unsuccessful in doing so. That statistic scared me, because it was something I really wanted but would I be in the 70%? Without Ana, I think I would have been. BUT I was prepared, my husband was prepared, and Ana set us up for success and I was able to do it. So incredible. I jokingly say that I would sooner kick the doctor out of the room before I kicked Ana out haha She really led our hospital birth and went above and beyond during the birth. She even took photos and videos that we will cherish forever. This may be too long for a google review, but I don’t care. This is an incredibly personal and intimidating journey, and you deserve to have someone like Ana on your team!

Ana is amazing! I highly recommend her especially if it’s your first pregnancy. She is very informative and supportive throughout the time she works with you and offers more than 2 meetings where she goes over everything from birth, your birth plan and postpartum. I really couldn’t recommend her enough it was so great having her as our doula for our first pregnancy

It was a pleasure working with Ana! Her meetings were extremely supportive. She was very detailed with everything and answered all my questions in detail! She also did an amazing job showing my husband how to support me during the labor process! Anytime I had any questions during pregnancy and postpartum, I texted her and she got back to me quickly. She was also an amazing support during the labor process and supported me during my contractions! Carolina was also amazing! She has visited me for a postpartum visit and it helped me so much. She asked what I needed help with the most and was able to help me! I would definitely recommend Ana’s services!

Ana did not only end up as my amazing doula, she also became a close friend. From the moment we met to the delivery of my baby, she treated us like family. She helped prepare us for a hospital birth with the mindset of a home birth. She shared information with us and then walked us through decisions we were going to have to make in the hospital. She was always available to answer my questions and was so sweet in listening to my concerns and fears. My birth went no where near what I had planned but having Ana there was truly a blessing. She walked me through positions, helped calm and ease my mind with prayer, and was super knowledgeable with everything going on. She also took some of my favorite photos during and after the birth. I love Ana and I truly believe that God brought her into my life for a reason and even though I’ve already given birth, she is still someone I go to and keep in touch with because of the bond we’ve created.

I highly recommend Ana as a doula! She is consistent, supportive, resourceful, spiritual, down-to-earth, and was by my side from the beginning all throughout postpartum. She's very easy to communicate with and quick to respond. During my pregnancy she provided lots of great information about how to help me prepare for an unmedicated birth. I especially appreciated how she empowers women and how genuine she is. During my labor at the hospital she provided a calm environment with lots of tools to help me through the contractions, and that really made a differece. Having her by my side was crucial for my unmedicated birth and I will forever be thankful for that, she's a Godsend.

We hired Ana as our doula and she was AMAZING! She is super knowledgeable, caring, and understanding. She makes sure you are well equipped and empowers couples (especially dads) to know and exercise this rights as part of this journey. Would definitely recommend to any couple, whether first time parents or experienced. Thanks Ana!

Ana is a god send! I was having a very difficult pregnancy and potential difficult labor and contacted Ana. Ana was willing to work with me and more than anything she wanted to support me. I called about 50 doulas due to the difficulty of my condition. Although Ana couldn't take me on as a patient due to scheduling issues, she nonetheless supported me and let me call her anytime. Additionally, as we were both christians she helped me pray for a doula that would fit my needs. And God answered! I was sent another doula with availability and able to help me with my difficulties faced. I know God sent me Ana first for us to connect. We've stayed in touch since then! She's prayed and supported me and my family through a myriad of things. What most impressed me about Ana is her loving, strong heart. I knew if I was going into labor I would want someone I could trust to help be my eyes and ears when all I could think about was surviving the next contraction. Whether or not you are christian, Ana is like a best friend supporting you and helping empower you throughout the process. I am so lucky and so blessed God sent me Ana. I had so many friends and family praying for someone good and godly. I know who to call for the next baby I have :)

We had such an amazing experience with Ana as our Doula. She was so kind and made us feel so safe during my pregnancy and in the delivery room. When we had any questions or concerns she always went above and beyond to make us feel heard. I loved how she not only educated me as the mom but also dad. During labor she made sure to guide dad and support me as much as possible. I had such a safe and easy delivery and I vouch it was because Ana guided us and educated us through the whole thing. We absolutely love Ana and will definitely be inviting her back in our next pregnancy and delivery.

Meeting Ana was totally God Ordained. She is a friend of my Aunt's and Ana came up in conversation as I was speaking to my aunt about my nervousness surrounding my pregnancy. Reaching out to Ana was the best decision I made during my pregnancy. Ana came alongside my husband and I and gave us the greatest gift, KNOWLEDGE. She gave us so much insight, resources, education and counsel all while having the most respectful approach. She didn't tell my husband and I what to do, but instead, really listened to our desires and helped us figure out what we needed to do to get there. I never knew I could go through labor unmedicated but Ana helped me to fully believe I was capable of doing "hard things". I'll never stop raving about Ana, because God allowed her to be a huge part of our first experience with childbirth and in the way we prayed for.

The moment my husband and I found out I would be expecting after a recent miscarriage was just about one of the happiest moments of our lives . At the time we were so overwhelmed with all the books and outside sources that we didn’t know what we wanted to apply throughout my pregnancy, labor and delivery . We just wanted to ensure we could make our first experience the safest and healthiest experience not just for our little blessing but for each of us . The moment we met Ana and came across her doula service there was instant peace and clarity . She helped us navigate through all the resources and information we came across . Our experience wasn’t just another check for her or another patient but a relationship. She truly made us and our baby feel like one of her own and till this day she gets monthly updates . There is so much more I can go on and say about my families experience but the most important takeaway for us was the spiritual wisdom and prayer that came throughout it all ♥️. Thank you Ana for all your Love and support !

At 7 months pregnant, we thought it might be too late for a doula, but that was not the case. When we reached out to Ana , she was so calm and pleasant. She was available and willing to answer all of our questions. Having her join our journey was a blessing and well worth it! We planned on a natural birth and I wanted nothing more than to be calm, ready and present for the birth of our son. Having Ana on our team as we prepared for the birth gave us the confidence, strength, and support we needed. When it came time to deliver, I was able to focus on my laboring and dad was able to support me with no distractions because we knew we had Ana at the hospital to help us. The peace of mind and calm that came with having Ana as our doula was something that enhanced our pregnancy and birthing experience.

There are no words to express how amazing it was Having Ana as my doula. She helped coach and mentor us to have our perfect natural birth, provided us with all information we needed and requested. And gave us her full support before, during and after birth would give 10 stars if I could but definitely recommend her 100%!

The birth of my first child was an experience I knew I needed to safeguard and protect at all costs. I desired an experience of having my first child to be one of such profound beauty and the sacredness that God Has created it to be. When I was first introduced to Ana I wasn't sure if I would be able to hire a doula but in the end it all worked out. Hiring Ana as our doula was the greatest asset to creating my birthing experience as my husband and I intended. Ana took our birth seriously with the utmost care. She listened intently to our needs and provided the education that is priceless. She allowed my husband and I to seek out every answer to our questions and always made us feel like nothing was impossible with God on our side. Ana's approach consisted of education, understanding the pros and cons of labor and interventions as well as believing in our values and standing our ground. The birth of our son was beautiful and something I'm so proud of. My husband and I desired to feel confident going to medical appointments and entering into that hospital on labor day (😉) and Ana equipped us for that very thing. All I can say more is, Ana was amazing and I'm so grateful to have her as our doula.
