From the moment I hired Emily, I knew I had someone truly invested in my pregnancy and birth experience. She was always prompt with her replies and eager to offer support, encouragement, and evidence-based information whenever I had questions or concerns. I never felt alone during my pregnancy because she was always just a message away. When labor began, Emily arrived at the hospital ready to go with a thoughtfully prepared labor kit full of comfort measures to help me manage pain. Throughout labor, she maintained such a positive, calming presence. She kept the conversation light when I needed distraction, offered encouragement when labor became difficult, and helped create an environment where I felt confident and supported. During the birth itself, she stayed by my side, held my hand, and encouraged me every step of the way. Thanks in large part to her unwavering support, I achieved my goal of having an unmedicated birth—something I’ll always be grateful for. Her care didn’t end once my daughter was born. During postpartum, Emily checked on me every single day. She even came to our home with homemade lasagna, cookies, treats for my toddler and husband, and a thoughtful gift to celebrate our new baby. Those acts of kindness meant so much during such a tender season. I cannot recommend Emily highly enough. She understands exactly what it means to be a doula and has such a genuine heart for serving families. Her compassion, knowledge, and dedication make her a perfect fit for this work. I truly believe she’s going to change the world for moms, one baby at a time, and I feel incredibly blessed that she was part of my birth story.
