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!

I believe anyone can have a positive birth experience when you feel empowered. When you make your own decisions over your body, the more positive the outlook will feel. You deserve support and care that aligns with your goals and considers your needs and desires to yours and your baby’s greatest wellbeing. Ultimately, the decisions concerning your pregnancy and birth, are yours to make. As a doula, I am here to support you concerning your own well being and trusting that you know what is best for your family. I work closely with you using informed choices, culturally appropriate and collaborative model of care. I support your right to make conscious choices, providing ongoing education, and work with you to plan your individual preferences in a nonjudgmental and loving way.

Marisol was the most knowledgeable, compassionate, and helpful doula one could ask for. She was there for me most my pregnancy and in labor. Whenever I had questions, especially being a first pregnancy she always had answers and gave me peice of mind. I had horrible back pain and she suggested several stretches and exercises that I could do on my own and some that my husband could help with and they were really helpful in relieving pregnancy pains. My labor started right when she finished with another labor and she was there for me full of energy. She would ask the nurse to bring me items like a peanut ball, a mirror, or dimming the lights to help me get though labor pains and to feel as comfortable as possible. She always had a very calm voice and touch. I would highly recommend using Marisol as your doula. There is so much information and helpful tips she as a doula will provide for pregnancy, labor, post partum and breastfeeding that is not provided by your OBGYN

Hello! I'm a specialized postpartum doula with a passion for holistic well-being and a heart committed to supporting mothers on their unique journeys. My approach to postpartum care is a blend of researched practices and traditions that promote both physical and mental healing. My belief is simple yet profound – healing involves the mind, body, and soul, nurtured through compassionate support, nourishing food, and the space to rest. I am dedicated to helping moms recover faster, become stronger, and feel their absolute best, empowering them to be the best parents they can be. My personal postpartum struggles guided me on my path into the world of postpartum care. Turning my challenges into an opportunity to support others, I am dedicated to meeting moms where they are in their postpartum journey and helping them achieve their goals. I've learned a lot of practical knowledge through my postpartum journeys – breastfeeding all three of my children, tandem nursing twins, using cloth diapers, creating homemade baby food, and embracing baby wearing, that I am eager to share. I love helping moms integrate these practices into their lives. I am passionate about holistic practices, but am also comfortable around modern medicine. My approach is rooted in understanding and respecting each family's choices. My strengths shine brightest when engaging with mothers – whether it's during heartfelt conversations, changing diapers, or bringing nourishing meals. I hope to create a calming, caring, and supportive space that shines light on the path of each mother I have the opportunity to support.

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!

If you’re on the fence about whether or not you should hire Alysha, climb over that fence! She was absolutely monumental during the birth of our daughter. This was our first baby, and Alysha guided us literally step by step, starting weeks before birth with preparation, exercises, stretches, and affirmations. She was also on call for us the entire week leading up to delivery and, of course, was right there with us in the room (and shower!) when it was finally go time. Our birth plan unexpectedly shifted to an induction, and Alysha was incredible at helping my husband and me understand our options and navigate each decision along the way. During labor, she provided constant physical and emotional support, coaching us through every contraction. She helped us stay calm, confident, and focused, and played a huge role in helping us achieve the unmedicated birth we had hoped for. I’ll admit that my husband was initially on the fence about having a doula, too. After our experience, we both agree that we cannot imagine going through birth without Alysha. She was knowledgeable, encouraging, compassionate, and such a steady presence throughout the entire process and helped give him just as much confidence and reassurance too. We are so grateful for everything she did for our family and would recommend Alysha to anyone preparing for birth!
