Recent review

Alex is an amazing and knowledgeable doula. She has given me all the information and help I needed to do a non-medicated birth confidently. Might I add he was a 9.1lb baby. She is so kind and always up for questions and helping in anyway she can. I appreciate her so much, because of Alex I didn’t approach birth with fear. I had a 12 hour labor and I remained relaxed, focused on each surge bringing me closer to meeting our child and melting into each surge. (Follow Alex to know exactly what I mean) Highly recommend working with Alex in anyway possible to gain the confidence for birth like I had.
