Choosing Amy as our homebirth midwife was the best decision we made for our family. From our very first consultation, I knew she was different. She doesn’t just “do midwifery” — she embodies it. She is deeply knowledgeable, confident, and grounded, but also incredibly warm and intuitive. I never once felt rushed, dismissed, or pressured. Every appointment felt like true care, not just a checkup. During labor, Amy’s presence was everything. She was calm, steady, and completely trusting of my body. She knew when to offer guidance and when to simply hold space. I felt safe, empowered, and fully supported through every wave. My birth felt sovereign, respected, and deeply sacred. Her postpartum care has been just as amazing. She checks on both mom and baby thoroughly — physically and emotionally. She genuinely cares about the whole family, not just the clinical boxes that need to be checked. If you are looking for a homebirth midwife who honors physiological birth, protects your autonomy, and brings both skill and sacredness into the room, Amy is who you want. I will forever be grateful she walked this journey with us.

Me and my wife found Niaja on Bornbir, recommended by a doctor We had the pleasure of having Niaja as our overnight nanny for our twin newborns, and we couldn't be more grateful for her help. One of our twins required an oxygen machine and needed close monitoring, and Niaja handled it with such care and professionalism. She was amazing, reliable, and trustworthy, always ensuring our little one was safe and comfortable.In addition to her exceptional care, she also helped with washing and sterilizing bottles and keeping up with the baby laundry, which was a huge relief for us. Niaja truly went above and beyond, and we highly recommend her to anyone in need of a dedicated and compassionate nanny. Thank you, Niaja, for everything!

Working with Clare as our doula was one of the most positive parts about pregnancy and labor! We knew we wanted a natural birth, in a hospital setting, and know sometimes things don’t go to “plan” and can escalate. My husband and I started thinking about working with a doula and I’m SO happy that we chose Clare with Gathered Nest. From the moment we met her our minds were at peace knowing we were in the best hands. From our prenatal home visit , labor, and then the postpartum home visit, Clare brought such a peaceful presence, amazing advice, knowledgeable tips and perspectives, and overall was such a joy to have around! I knew she would be taking photos of labor, but what I didn’t expect was the beautifully written birth story we received about a week after delivery. What a true GIFT it was to be able to relive every detail - moments that would’ve been forgotten, now written and available for us to revisit whenever we’d like (and to tell our daughter some day!). Do yourselves a favor and hire her!!! With all that can come with pregnancy and birth, it’s crucial to have support you can trust, and someone who brings comfort and Clare is all of that and more.

Molly went above and beyond my expectations helping my family prepare and welcome our new baby. She created a safe space for me in such a vulnerable, stressful, and uncertain time of my life. Molly is reliable, trustworthy, exceptionally smart, and very in tune with her surroundings. She has a kind and comforting energy around her that requires little, if any, need for adjustment. I felt validated, listened to, and understood. Molly helped me feel capable of myself, loved and cared for, and answered to my needs without having to ask. I would not be in the same place that I am without Molly as our doula. I highly recommend her services and couldn't ask for a better person to guide me and my family.

Libby Deutsch

Libby Deutsch is the co-owner of Holistic Family Doulas, a certified birth and postpartum doula and private childbirth educator. Libby is known for her grounded, steady presence and her ability to fully surrender to the person giving birth. Her care is deeply mother-led, rooted in listening, attunement and meeting each client exactly where they are. She is steady without being passive and encouraging without overpowering the moment. A core part of Libby’s work is empowering mothers through education—helping them understand what is happening in their body and brain during labor so they can trust the process and feel more confident in their decisions. Mothers often share that they feel calmer, more grounded and more trusting of themselves after time together. Her foundation in physiologic birth is informed by both training and lived experience, including birthing her own children at home. She supports all types of birth with equal respect and works seamlessly across home, birth center and hospital settings. She is especially skilled at supporting mothers navigating complex emotions, previous trauma or a desire to reclaim and rewrite their birth experience—gently reminding them of their inherent strength. Libby’s postpartum care is intentional and nurturing, centered on restoration, nourishment and emotional steadiness. Drawing from global postpartum traditions, including Malay bellybinding (trained by The Birth Matron), vaginal steaming and Ayurvedic principles, she offers slow, thoughtful care that prioritizes the mother’s recovery. Through her training in yoga and Reiki, she brings a calming presence that supports mothers as they reconnect with their bodies and trust themselves in this new season. Libby’s role is not to lead your experience, but to walk beside you—offering steadiness, encouragement and trust as you move through birth and into motherhood, reminding you of your strength every step of the way.

Lynn began her indie doula and photography practice in 2018. Her background is in reproductive health and non profits as an educator, direct care professional, and in state policy and project management. She has a BA in Gender Studies, is a certified birth, postpartum, and full spectrum doula, a childbirth educator, and a member of the Queer Doula Network. She hangs her fanny pack in Andersonville where she lives with her wife Mercedes -- a deep-hearted middle school teacher she's spellbound by, and with whom she shares the creative practice called home. Weaving together modern and traditional approaches, her support with families focuses on body literacy and agency, trauma and healing, educating and preparing for birth and postpartum, collective care, caretaking and parenting, honoring transitions, and nurturing relationships (including sex and intimacy). Knowledge building is a collaborative mixture of education, experience, and intuition. At the heart of it: you belong to yourself and are the expert of your own experience. She is committed to trauma-informed practices and co-creating safer spaces by being body- and sex-positive, anti-racist, pro-choice, queer and gender affirming, and welcoming to solo, poly, blended, or communal families. Your care should be designed for your comfort, needs, and wants. It should see you in your full context – your stage of life, unique body, lived experience, culture, community, ability, desires, and dreams.

Liam is an extremely caring, intelligent and respectful doula. She sat with me in a lot of grief and anxiety in my fifth pregnancy, (my last one, following three miscarriages.) She rode through the dark moments with me and really helped me mentally prepare for giving birth to a living baby, which I had struggled to mentally accept as possibility. She made sure that I was comfortable enough to take my last birthing experience into my own hands. I truly couldn’t have done it without her experience, care and dedication.
