We are so thankful for the support we received- we could not have done it without her guiding us as first time parents and taking care of us postpartum!
— Sarah F., review of Audrey Ferrell
I cannot sing enough praises for how wonderful Audrey was as my doula! She is grounded, organized, empowering, calming, safe, flexible, understanding, and strong. She stayed with me for 28 hours of active labor and was everything I hoped for when hiring a doula and more. She offered different relaxation techniques and spoke words of strength over me. She even helped provide my husband with direction when he wanted to help but didn't know what to do. She took pictures and videos during the birth (after we agreed to that) and captured some of the most beautiful moments that I'll get to remember forever. She came organized with copies of my preferences that she had had me fill out prior and a copy of my own birth plan that I created. Even though my birth didn't go at all according to plan, she never made me feel ashamed or disappointed, only strong and empowered for making tough decisions. She became my rock and my safe space during labor and I couldn't have done it without her. My postpartum visit was so nice and so sweet. It was wonderful to visit and debrief with someone who was there! One of my big love languages is gifts and she got me a gift basket that I'll never forget. A onsie with bees after seeing my bee tattoo behind my ear, milkmaid tea after me telling her how excited I was to breastfeed, postpartum mood vitamins after me telling her how worried I was about PPD, and a nail product that we actually talked about in the L&D room! I was so touched by the attention to detail she provided. When I decided to hire a doula, my husband had originally said "Why are we paying so much for someone we don't know to basically give you massages?" And I said "trust me". He left the hospital saying to Audrey "I get it now. We will never do this where you don't have that kind of support. What you provide is priceless. We can't imagine what this would've been like without you. Worth every penny.
— Aubrey W., review of Audrey Ferrell
As my first doula I don’t know how I could have done it without her! From the preparation to the actual moment, everything was very well explained and aligned with my wishes. You can really see her passion and care in the work she gives. 10/10 would use agian.
