I met Jacquelyne and Sarah when I was 34 weeks pregnant with my son. Even though I was so far along, it felt like I had know them my whole pregnancy. We connected so well and they both made me feel like family. When i tell you they would do anything for their girls, i mean they would do ANYTHING for their girls. Even if it means coming over to massage you several times just because they know your body is aching and they want to help you rest better without you even having to ask them! They are so kind, gentle, honest, and generous with their time. They are so passionate about mommas and babies and it is so evident in every area of their lives. My birth didn’t go as planned, but they both comforted me and made me feel like I could do anything. even in the face of a mountain of fear. I couldn’t have done it without them. I am forever grateful for these beautiful women. I want them to be there for all of my babies!!! Also, RUN DO NOT WALK to having Sarah as your photographer!!! She is AMAZING! Every picture captures so much emotion and her editing is phenomenal!

Hello there and congratulations! I am a homeschooling mama to four girls and a lover of all things birth. I believe that birth is a natural process and I love helping empower couples as they welcome their babies into the world. I’ve been teaching natural childbirth classes for 12 years, attending births as a doula for 7 years, and am now studying to become a homebirth midwife. If you want someone who is going to be a positive, uplifting voice throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, I’d love to be that for you.

Jackie has been such an answered prayer for me and my family. I heard about her through mutual friends, reached out, and quickly met with her to go over my birth history, trauma, and hopes for my VBAC. I wanted an unmedicated VBAC, and with her support, I got that experience in the end. She listened deeply, cared sincerely, and that was evident throughout my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. She is steady and helped me stay grounded. She never made anything feel like an emergency unless it truly was. Anytime I needed support, information, encouragement, or help making decisions, she was there immediately with wisdom, resources, and alternatives. I also took her birth classes and learned so much that helped me stay confident and informed throughout my pregnancy. I especially loved how she shared her own birth experiences in such an authentic and encouraging way. During the final weeks before labor, I leaned on her DAILY for encouragement and support. She reminded me that my body wasn’t broken after my first birth and helped me learn to trust it again. During labor, she held my hand through contractions, encouraged me constantly, and helped me stay calm and focused. Postpartum, she continued showing up by bringing food, holding my baby, and answering questions during those early weeks. One of the things I appreciated most was sharing faith in Christ throughout the experience. Having a doula who carried herself with such peace, encouragement, and genuine faith was incredibly comforting and meaningful to me. She is authentic, compassionate, and truly loves what she does. I’m forever grateful for her support and will absolutely continue recommending her to everyone I know. I hope she helps me birth all the rest of my babies too!

Hiring the right Doula was an incredibly important and necessary part of my birth story. I was terrified to give birth due to past trauma and fear of the unknown. I needed someone by my side to teach me what to expect and to be my advocate. Sarah fully prepared me for the expected and unexpected. She was my advocate, cheerleader, and friend through the entire process. I felt prepared and was able to be fully present for the birth of my son. I felt, and feel, she really cares for me. Sarah continues to check on me (4 months PP). I don't think this is a job for her, but a calling for those who need her. Hiring Sarah was the best decision I could have made. If an informed and beautiful experience is what you desire, consider Sarah.

Working with Cush&Comfort Doula Services was truly one of the best decisions I made during my pregnancy and birth journey. From our very first meeting, she made me feel seen, heard, and completely supported. Her calm, knowledgeable presence gave me so much confidence going into labor. During my delivery, she was an absolute blessing. She advocated for me, helped me stay grounded, and guided me through every contraction with reassurance and care. I honestly don’t know how I would have gotten through it without her encouragement and expertise. Postpartum, she continued to show up in such a meaningful way—checking in, offering guidance, and making sure both baby and I were doing well. Her compassion, professionalism, and genuine love for what she does shines through in every interaction. If you are looking for a doula who will support you physically, emotionally, and spiritually, I highly recommend Cush&Comfort. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients. I am forever grateful for her support during one of the most important times in my life. — A grateful client from Eureka ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Heidi and the role she played in bringing our sweet Mila into the world! Our story with Heidi actually began during a previous pregnancy that unfortunately did not work out. Heidi was incredibly kind and compassionate through that experience and refunded the money we had paid her. We told her that when we were lucky enough to become pregnant again, we would be back; and although it took us a while to get there, we kept that promise. Throughout my pregnancy with Mila, Heidi was informative, supportive, and involved. She held classes with us, came to our home several times, and truly took the time to get to know us. By delivery day, she felt like someone we knew and completely trusted. During labor, Heidi was incredible. I was especially nervous about the epidural, and she stayed right beside me, keeping me calm and reassuring me. She used different techniques, positions, and comfort measures to help relieve pain and stress, and when we were faced with decisions, having her there to help us understand our options was invaluable. One of the most meaningful moments for my husband came right after Mila was born. Heidi guided him to go be with Mila while she stayed with me. In such an overwhelming moment, he wouldn’t have known what to do otherwise. Because of her, he was able to be there for those first moments with our daughter while knowing I wasn’t alone. After everything it took for us to finally welcome Mila, having Heidi by our side made the experience even more special. We will always be grateful that she is part of Mila’s birth story and could not recommend her enough!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING EXPERIENCE with Amanda! From the prenatal meetings, unlimited texting, the labor & delivery experience, and all the help postpartum. I couldn’t recommend her enough to others. I felt safe and seen in my entire experience. Always felt supported and was able to make clear decisions for me and my family. My husband and I brag to everyone about our experience. It has been amazing the support we have received!!

Alysha was such an important part of my pregnancy and labor/delivery journey. I really believe that I could not have done it without her. She is so knowledgeable about what she does. She is very trusting, kind, and attentive. Her support during labor was exceptional. She was exactly what I wanted in a doula. I had a great experience with her for my second birth. I’d recommend Alysha to anyone considering hiring her or anyone on the fence about a doula. You will not regret it. She’s a wonderful person and I’m so thankful to have her as a part of our family’s story as we welcomed our second child into the world. Thank you Alysha! I am forever grateful for you.

Ashton was my doula for two of my three births, and I’m so grateful I had her there. She was kind, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive throughout the experience. She helped me feel informed and confident, and when things got hard, her calm presence reminded me that I could do it. I would absolutely recommend Ashton to any mom looking for a supportive and encouraging doula!
