Like most men, I probably had no idea what a doula did. After meeting with Pamela, I learned quite a bit and felt comfortable in having her be a part of our birth experience. I was able to be there for my wife emotionally and Pamela took care of everything else. She supported my wife in a way that I couldn't have. I have no idea how we could have done it without her. She was the true MVP that day. I can't thank her enough. Her experience as a nurse was super helpful. We will hire her again for our next pregnancy!

Hello, My name is Johanna and I am a certified postpartum doula and gentle sleep coach based in Daybreak, Utah! I love supporting families in their postpartum journey. I am happy to help wherever it is needed: caring for the birthing parent or the newborn, helping with older siblings, cooking, and overall helping you navigate life with a new baby! Moreover, I offer holistic sleep support that is tailored to your family. I don't work with any separation-based sleep training methods such as Ferber and CIO. Instead, we look for gentle and realistic ways to improve your baby's sleep. In addition to my trainings, I hold a master's degree in Psychology and am CPR/first aid certified. In my free time, I love to travel, read, do pilates, and do the crossword. I mainly serve clients in and around SLC but am open to travel assignments!

Johanna was our babysitter for our son Peter from 10 months until 2,5 y.o. And our daughter Clara from the first week to 5 months. Johanna is an amazing care taker, she is very knowledgeable and experience across all ages. She is very kind and loving with the kids, and can create a strong bound with them very quickly. She also know how to be strict and make sure that rules are being followed. We would also ask her for advice for sleep training as well as more little things like how to get our son be improve his skills with his balance bike. She always came up with great input and feedback. We all loved her dearly, she became a family member to us, and we hope you can now enjoy her service as much as we did.

Hey there! I'm Jenn Carlson, your friendly neighborhood doula! I call Springfield, VA home, where I live with my husband, Eddie—a rock musician who moonlights as a film critic. (Or maybe it’s the other way around? Either way, there's a lot of passionate reviews in my house!). I spent over two decades as an IT pro and a stage manager before diving headfirst into my most exciting production: raising two amazing daughters. Both of their births were high-drama—think less "rom-com" and more "medical thriller." But those experiences sparked a fire in me to help other women feel empowered during labor, and thus began my journey as a doula. Since 2013, I've been lucky enough to attend over 700 births and help nearly 300 new moms recover through the magical art of placenta encapsulation (yes, it’s a thing and it’s awesome). I'm a CBI and DONA Trained, Madriella Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, a Childbirth Educator, an AHA Infant and Pediatric First Aid and CPR instructor, a certified Reiki practitioner, and a placenta encapsulation specialist. Whew, that’s a mouthful! My goal? To be whatever my clients need. Natural-minded or more into the medical approach, I’m here to make sure you have the birth experience you want—with all the options on the table. My definition of a successful birth? One where the mom feels respected, empowered, and ready to write her own birth story, no matter how her baby arrives. Because education is key, I teach breastfeeding, infant CPR, newborn care, and childbirth classes. I've got experience with Bradley and Hypnobirthing techniques, and I bring along my trusty rebozo and TENS unit to help families through labor. I also have special training to support moms who have experienced trauma or loss, and a big, soft spot for high-risk mothers like me who need to know they have options. So whether you’re looking for a bit of guidance, a lot of support, or just someone to laugh with while you figure it all out—I’m here for you!

Jenn possesses a unique blend of deep, evidence-based knowledge and genuine empathy, which was evident in every interaction. She took the time to understand my preferences, fears, and hopes, and tailored her support to fit my birth needs. Whether it was providing invaluable information quickly over text, offering comforting words during labor, or simply being a supportive presence throughout my birth experience, Jenn was there every step of the way. Jenn’s skill in managing both physical and emotional aspects of labor was remarkable. We felt incredibly empowered with her was by our side. She ensured that my experience was as positive and respectful as possible. Her ability to read the room, adapt to changing circumstances, and offer practical solutions made all the difference. While my birth didn’t go how I had envisioned due to unforeseen complications, I felt incredibly supported and advocated for throughout the process. At every significant decision point, we discussed and weighed the options. Jenn made sure to inform me on what is or would happen and why. In the end, I believe the decisions I made during labor were the most well-informed and safest options for the baby and me. I feel positively about my birth experience because of Jenn who was a light and guide during the process. If it weren’t for her being my doula, I’m sure I would have had a traumatic labor in which I would have continued to regret my choice in provider and hospital. We are profoundly grateful for Jenn’s commitment to our well-being throughout the pregnancy and labor experience.

Hi! I’m Damaris. I’m originally from Germany and love exploring new places, cultures and food. I am an outdoor person who does everything from relaxing at the beach to hiking up the mountains, running or cycling around the city. I am a qualified Postpartum Doula. Back in Germany, I studied and worked as a Midwife and have over 7 years of experience in educating, encouraging and supporting new mum’s on their journey into motherhood. I see an overwhelming need for mothers to continue to receive the encouragement, care and support postpartum. Every mum needs and deserves to be mothered over this period; to be nurtured in a non-judgemental way so that the best mum within her will be available for her new baby. I provide in-home postpartum care that is personalised to you and your needs. This could include sitting down with you and listening, cooking you a nourishing meal, giving you a massage, supporting you with (breast)feeding, settling or swaddling your baby or doing your laundry or dishes – whatever it is that helps you feel calm and relaxed. I offer face-to-face sessions in your home, in Sydney, Australia (Inner West, Eastern Suburbs, Lower North Shore and St George area).

Recent review

As a second time mum, I felt okay with looking after a baby- what I learned from my first experience was that I needed to look after myself, too. That’s where Damaris stepped in. She not only made space for me to get a much-needed physical break but gently guided me to really prioritise rest (both mentally and physically)- a concept that was challenging for me to accept at first but something that will last well beyond the fourth trimester. What worked best for myself and my family was a weekly visit from Damaris. Her postnatal massages are a must and helped me avoid those aches and pains from pregnancy and hours spend nursing in awkward positions. She made sure I was comfortable, used beautiful essential oils, and I’d almost always fall asleep it was so relaxing. Her belly massage is the best! Damaris would also help with housework, meals, and the baby so I could get in some much-needed extra rest. Knowing that I had set aside this time for me every week was so, SO good, and helped me get through the tougher days. I now firmly prioritise rest, knowing that it is not just for me but my family too. Every new mum needs Damaris!

Hello! My name is Julie (they/she), and I am a full-spectrum doula keen on prioritizing care work that centers being an advocate, joy-seeker, and companion for families and individuals desiring community support during periods of great transition. As a full-spectrum doula, I offer my services of care for a range of experiences within the perinatal lifecycle: pregnancy, birth, postpartum, abortion, loss, and beyond. And above all - I aspire to connect pregnant and birthing people with themselves and their communities so that family networks can thrive during these liminal spaces and incredible rites of passage - however they may unfold. Whatever your personal story is, I hope to uplift and embrace it, non-judgmentally supporting families and providing a tailored alchemy of emotional, educational, logistical, and advocacy support in planning and preparing for the journey you are about to embark on. All families deserve to be held with care during these transitions, and I look forward to welcoming all the emotions that come up to help you find the most powerful, informed, safe, loving experience you can imagine.

Recent review

Julie was an absolute lifesaver for our family. She helped us set our baby up for sleep success and gave us such great breastfeeding advice. Julie's emotional support for mom was just what we needed, and her incredible care and attention as our baby grew and her needs changed were so reassuring. It felt like Julie became a part of our family during that time, and her presence made everything so much easier. We couldn’t have asked for a better postpartum doula and are so grateful for everything she did for us. Highly recommended!

Hi! My name is Sophie and I'm a Birth and Postpartum Doula in Los Angeles. I am a Dona-trained certified birth doula, Trained Hypnobabies® Hypno-Doula, certified ayurvedic postpartum doula, and trained newborn care specialist in the LA area. I believe that every woman and mother deserves the support she wants and needs however that may look. I have over 12 years of experience in childcare in Switzerland and the U.S., and serve clients and English and German. I have focused my work in early childhood, and over five years specifically in newborn care and as a doula. I have always been drawn to holistic healing and the power of the human mind and body. I love cooking anything from pasta to kitchari, believe in the healing power of meditation and breath work and value a balanced approach of traditional and alternative medicine. My goal is to make you feel safe and deeply empowered as a parent.

Recent review

My husband and I are so happy with Sophie. She’s an excellent doula, a wonderful person, and we consider her part of our family. We are first time parents and she has such a steady, comforting, kind presence that’s been crucial to helping us get through some tough days. We (and our dog, she loves Sophie) are always glad to see Sophie walk through the door. Sophie has also helped me with my breastfeeding journey - honestly, it’s not something that I’ve enjoyed overall, and she’s helped me clarify why I’m doing it and what can be done to make it easier. I’m still pumping and wouldn’t have made it this far without her. Sophie is also super thorough and documents in detail how each night goes with our daughter. I’ve changed up my daughter’s feeding routine several times with different supplements and breastmilk/formula combinations based on her gas and fussiness. Sophie is flexible and always willing to try a new routine, offering her thoughts based on what she sees at night, and is patient with me every time I want to mix it up :). In sum, we love Sophie and trust her completely with our daughter. I'm now pregnant with my second, and am obviously using Sophie as part of our dream team once again!

Hello, my name is Bohdana (she/her), and I became a Doula because being in a supportive role, sympathetically and empathetically meeting you where you are at in your journey, is something I am both proficient and passionate about. I will be by your side as you bring your baby into the world whether at a hospital, birthing center, or in the comfort of your own home. Once baby is born, I will continue to provide you with educational support as well as encouragement and emotional support as you become acquainted with your baby. I will support your infant feeding journey (breastfeeding or otherwise) and offer household organizational support. I have time to get to know YOU, not just your birth preferences. I have time to provide you with as much support as you need throughout your entire journey. I genuinely love supporting others and being an empath means this role comes naturally to me. After birth, both parent(s) and baby need a lot of support. I can do overnight but also daytime 8-hour shifts to help care for baby so that you can get some rest, or on a consultation basis – an informative session on infant care, breastfeeding techniques and restorative care for the parent who gave birth. I feel blessed that as a doula, I am part of such a beautiful moment and environment called birth, where I am able to help enable mothers to help believe in themselves that they strong, beautiful and powerful. Making moms feel loved, supported, cared for, and special during their labours and births is so rewarding. My first languages are Ukrainian and English, but I can also support you in conversational Russian and basic German!

Recent review

Working with Doula Bohdana was an incredible experience. Her support during our birthing journey was invaluable, making the entire process amazing. Beyond the delivery, she continued to be a pillar of assistance during postpartum appointments. Bohdana provided valuable insights on proper baby feeding and ensured we found moments to rest and recover after giving birth. Highly recommend her for her expertise and genuine care.

Annika joined our family for 2 months with our second baby and her help was such a relief for us through the sleepless nights. We had the first 6 weeks covered through our insurance and ended up extending her 2 more weeks out of pocket. Annika was easy to work with in terms of extending the contract -- and luckily she had another client after us otherwise we may have continued booking for another 3 months! During those months she actually helped us identify that our daughter was having silent reflux. Long story short, our baby ended up having multiple tongue ties that we got revised and wouldn't have figured out so quickly without Annika's recommendation to get her looked at! She never claimed to have expertise in areas she didn't know about and always guided us towards someone who did. Since the tongue ties were revised I was able to continue my breastfeeding journey. Annika was always on time, eager to help, wore a mask around our baby (I didn't know what she looked like without one until one of our last nights!) and sent detailed notes at the end of each night. I loved being able to know what happened throughout the night between feeding sessions even when someone else was holding my baby. I had never had a doula before but if I ever have a third child I will make sure that Annika is available. Not only are her services top notch, she is a lovely person to be around and so sweet. We love Annika and recommend her 100%!

From 0-10 centimeters, you need Shelby! Having her attention on me prenatally, during labor, and into the postpartum period made all the difference for my second pregnancy. I was really nervous for my second birth as the first did not go how I envisioned, but my birth planning session with Shelby quickly put me at ease. Her knowledge of comfort measures and the local hospital providers proved invaluable. She also got my husband involved while showing us comfort measures to use during labor, and was always available to quickly answer any messages or silly questions I had throughout my pregnancy. Shelby supported me until I finally went into labor naturally at 41 weeks and 5 days. She knew how badly I wanted to go into labor without being induced and gave me great information about how long a pregnancy could take. Her support took a lot of pressure off of me as I focused on making informed decisions regarding my labor and bringing my baby earthside. After birth, Shelby was available to help me with breastfeeding, which I was really nervous about because I wasn't able to breastfeed my first baby. I also suffered from terrible postpartum depression with my first, and Shelby was able to offer guidance on recognizing the signs of postpartum depression and anxiety so I would be able to seek help. Having eight weeks of virtual support in addition to my postpartum appointments with Shelby really boosted my confidence as I transitioned into my new role as a mother of two.
