Danielle was such and inspiration for me during my breastfeeding needs. From all the questions I had to helping me get through the stressful times, she was there for me through it all. I highly recommend reaching out to her for any and all concerns.

Working with Alison was a wonderful experience. From the beginning moments of telling her about my pregnancy through to the post natal experience, she showed her strong intuitive skills, used her sense of humor and was able to guide us through this wondrous process. Alison was especially helpful at offering clarity around my choices in labor and especially a strong supporter when I felt pressure from my team of doctors to take the epidural. Alison reminded me that I had a choice and that freed me to make the right decision for me. Alison was also adept at councelling my husband and I throughout our pre labor experience around the myriad of changes, emotions, wonders and fear that having a child brought up for us. She always provided a safe environment for us that was healing, engaging and fun. Alison used her intuition to guide us in working together as a couple and was able to read exactly what we needed individually and together. Alison used her own weatlth of knowledge from various areas in her life to support us and remind us of the constant flow that occurs in labor and in child rearing. This helped me to trust in the process; something I am not always great at! Her kindness and ability to be present and focused was an immense help to me in the delivery room. From talking a family member away from the delivery room, to navigating doctors, to coaching my husband to helping me and giving me space when needed was amazing. I happily and whole heartedly recommend Alsion to work with as a birthing partner and aly on the birth journey.

Sydney is amazing! My husband and I attended her breastfeeding essentials class when we were still pregnant, and it helped so much to know what to expect once baby was here. Once our son did arrive, it wasn't what we were expecting (he had to be in the NICU for a few days) and working with Sydney once we were all home helped so much in our breastfeeding journey! I was nervous about how hard it would be to have him transition to fully nursing after being on mostly bottles and formula in the NICU, but Sydney came to our house to give tips and observe how he was nursing and do a weighted feed, gave us a simple plan that was easy to follow, and was so helpful in the transition from triple feeding to just breastfeeding! We are so grateful for Sydney!

Dionne, you were such an amazing help to both Matthew and I! I loved meeting your family and having you alongside us through labor! We would not have had the experience we did if it was not for your support and encouragement and energy! Thank you so so so much!!!

The first words I think of while describing my family's experience with Luna Bruno is "our angel on Earth". I was fortunate enough to meet Luna while she was training to become a Midwife at a birth center I was receiving care at for a few weeks. Life had some hiccups and I no longer had any prenatal care at all. I immediately knew that if I wasn't going to have a Dr./Midwife by my side, I 100% needed a woman who can help me connect with every bit of strength I had in me to get through what I was about to experience. Beginning to end Luna tailored not only to my husband and I's needs, but she also tailored her work style and ethic around who we are as people. She took thoughtful time understanding our mindsets, concerns, and lifestyle to translate them all into the care she provided throughout our journey. No matter who you are, if your goal is to channel your upmost STRENGTH pre/post natal, Luna is the woman to help empower you through it all. There was not one single moment where we felt unsupported, alone, unsure, or not advocated for properly. My favorite part about working with Luna was knowing that this is not just some job title for her, this is who she is, you can feel the passion for her work threaded into every part of her honest work. Both my husband and I (+my new little baby if he could type) would 1000% recommend Luna Bruno as your Doula.

Stephanie was an important professional during my pregnancy and postpartum experience. I did not have a good breastfeeding experience with my first child, and I wanted to make sure I had support with the second. Her consultation with me before giving birth gave important education and support. I felt prepared for breastfeeding after giving birth, and seeing Stephanie at my house during the first week postpartum was incredible. She was professional, knowledgable, and relatable during my time of need, and I am grateful to have found her as support in the specialized area of lactation.

Hiring an overnight doula from Peaceful Passages was one of the best decisions I made for my postpartum recovery. Not only did my doula lovingly care for me and my newborn, she went above and beyond—prepping nourishing meals, providing breastfeeding support, organizing the baby’s nursery, and even helping with my twin toddlers so I could rest. Her calm, professional presence made my healing after a c-section so much easier. I was especially impressed by how seamless everything was—she was professionally dressed, compassionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. On top of that, Peaceful Passages accepted my Carrot insurance and handled all the billing with ease, which lifted such a burden off my shoulders. This service was truly a lifesaver for me and my family. I felt cared for, supported, and able to focus on bonding with my baby. I can’t recommend their overnight doula services enough!

The best LC you could ask for!! She listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions with positivity! She also helped me recently make a plan for exclusively pumping cause my little guy is tiny bit lazy with eating at breast lol. She’s been a big help so far and even found my babys tongue tie! Definitely recommend her if you’re in her area!!

If you need a doula, look no further! Kaelani made my birth and postpartum experience truly amazing. She is incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and compassionate. Whenever I had questions or needed more information, she was always there to guide me and provide helpful resources so I could make informed decisions with confidence. Having her as my doula made such a positive difference, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dedicated doula!

Karly was an amazing doula and lactation consultant for my wife. She went above and beyond and was crucial in helping my wife feel more confident in breastfeeding before leaving the hospital. She was also a very kind and calming presence during labor. We can't thank her enough.

I don’t have the “typical” testimonial…. Alexa was incredible for me postpartum, I unfortunately experienced a stillbirth of my son, Dallin at 37 wks. Alexa, helped me walk through the process of drying up my milk safely and making sure I was doing my best to care for myself and drinking plenty of water to avoid any problems in the process of drying up my milk. I will never forget her kindness in my darkest days & weeks. HIGHLY recommend Brighter Days Breastfeeding.

Linda is a wonderful resource for Moms hoping to have a healthy breastfeeding experience with their little ones. I am a healthcare provider who sees lots of families, pregnant moms and little ones and I've recommended Linda countless time for help with all things breastfeeding. She even does free classes in my office educating moms on a variety of breastfeeding topics, and I trust her expertise to the fullest!

We had the privilege of having Zoe as our overnight postpartum doula for our second child. It was great having such a warm, friendly, and supportive presence in the house while most of the rest of the folks in the house were asleep. She was a huge help during our struggles with breastfeeding and our daughter's jaundice treatment, as well as with all the baby-related chores that seem small but add up quickly. I could rest assured that Baby was cared for and that I wouldn't wake up to a bin full of used baby bottles and pumping supplies to wash. Even our 3 year old really warmed up to her, even though she was mostly here during his sleeping hours. We felt very well supported and Zoe's visits were the perfect way to reset during the newborn+toddler struggle.

Hiring Neisha was one of the best decisions I made as I prepared for childbirth, and I would whole-heartedly recommend her to anyone. While I was initially unsure about whether I wanted to hire a doula, after interviewing Neisha I was convinced that it would be helpful to bring her on to support me and my husband before, during, and after the delivery of our first child, and I was not disappointed. I ultimately had a very positive birth experience, and I credit Neisha for giving me the preparation, knowledge, and validation needed to make informed decisions and clearly communicate my preferences during labor and delivery. Early on, she provided us with ample online resources to begin our childbirth preparation. During our prenatal meetings we developed a birth plan, practiced comfort techniques, and discussed the essentials of breastfeeding and newborn care. Throughout my labor Neisha calmly fielded our increasingly anxious calls about whether to take Pitocin and when to begin the epidural. She was a reassuring presence in the delivery room, suggesting alternative positions and providing encouragement to me and my husband through two hours of pushing. Postpartum, Neisha helped with breastfeeding, and continued to check in for several weeks after the end of our official contract as I dealt with a difficult and unexpected complication. Neisha’s professionalism and expertise combined with her warmth and sense of humor made her an invaluable part of my birth team. I would absolutely hire her again. (PS - she is also an incredible massage therapist!)

Susan has a natural ability to make you feel at ease, which was exactly what me and my baby needed during a challenging time with feeding. Susan brought a sense of calm into our household when we were at our most stressed and hectic. Susan is not only very knowledgeable but also incredibly empathetic and caring. She took the time to listen to my concerns, answered all my questions with patience, and provided clear, practical guidance along with consistent follow up support. Her gentle, reassuring approach has made me feel supported and empowered throughout my breastfeeding journey. I highly recommend Susan as a lactation consultant!

Parris was my birth doula for my first and only birth so far and I have no reservations recommending her. From the initial consult to prenatal visits to the actual labor and delivery and post partum visit, Parris was attentive, courteous, and patient. Her actions in my delivery room avoided a c-section and her plethora of experience means that she has techniques for anything that might go wrong during your birth. I would go with her again if I have a second baby!

- Laura Y.

Tamika was truly exceptional. From the moment we met, her warmth put me completely at ease. I was struggling with milk production after a traumatic delivery, and breastfeeding felt overwhelming. Tamika stepped in with genuine care—making time for me, even doing home visits, and guiding me every step of the way. She would email me notes on our visits with links to websites to help me better with my pumping and whatever else I needed. She was quick to respond to any queries I had about my new born even if it was not related to breastfeeding. She’s incredibly professional but also brings a friendly, comforting vibe that makes you feel supported and understood. She does this work out of love, and it shows in everything she does. It’s rare to find someone so passionate and committed. Her heart is truly in the right place. I honestly don’t know what I would have done without her help. Highly, highly recommend!

Amanda is the best when it comes to lc (I’ve seen many). She is understanding and emotionally involved every step of the way. Breastfeeding is already a struggle so finding someone who comes from a place of no judgment and respects your needs is important. I recommend Amanda to every mom to be who is looking for the best kind of support.

Sizzly was wonderful. Very knowledgeable and with a lot of experience which made me feel she is very trustworthy and that my home birth was in great hands. Love that she prayed over my baby’s birth and received guidance intuitively from the Lord. She was very encouraging when I needed it most and didn’t hesitate to go the extra mile. If i had to do it all again, I would definitely pick Sizzly as my midwife again. 10/10 recommend for anyone considering a home birth.

Hallelujah!! That’s what I shouted when I was finally able to find Beth! She has been with me through two home births and now takes care of my entire family as our Primary. Her prenatal and Homebirth care were amazing, I always felt listened to. Each visit there was respect and connection! I had a lot of opinions on what I wanted and didn’t want and she talked with me about each of them and never tried to force me to change my mind about anything. Even Vaccines!!! Leading up to my homebirths I was intimidated and spoke to her about that, she was able to point me in the right direction for resources and made great recommendations for my specific fears. When it finally came time to have my babies she was exactly the presence I needed. Hands off but there. My husband and I felt absolutely taken care of and safe. She trusted my body and helped me to trust it to. My sons labor was textbook but my daughters labor was all over the place, 1min contractions followed by 15min breaks or 30sec contractions followed by 1min break. Just all over the place. (I know I would have been given pitocin if I was in a hospital.) I was worried but she reassured me that everything was fine and sure enough my daughter came out in the exact same amount of time it took for my son! I had a 15min rest period between contractions right before the last one that got her out. They were both 6hour labors with drastically different contraction cycles and both ended with beautiful births and healthy babies! I adore her middle of the road approach to health care. She gives amazing advice on things to do for sicknesses and different issues without running to medication. Which is very important for us. Even with ADHD issues she’s given me different things to try that I had never thought of. You kind of only think medication but there’s a whole lot we could do if that’s the route you choose. Having a primary that intimately knows my kids and myself is something I thought wasn’t possible at this day and age. We are so blessed to have found her and I feel completely confident that my kids health is the most important not some agenda! We are blessed to have a Primary we COMPLETELY trust that we can run to!
