Consistently meeting my expectations. Heather is easy to work with, personalized, and empathetic. She is very flexible with her schedule and takes the time to work around my needs. She is very responsive, communicative, the patience, knowledge and pays attention to every detail especially when it comes to my health. I can't thank her enough.

My first pregnancy I did without a doula and my midwife was hardly involved. It was pretty traumatic and I don’t have the best memories from that pregnancy. But with my second, I decided to get a doula, and Heather agreed to be mine. She was in constant communication with me through my pregnancy. She checked up on me and even though I was already a mother and went through labor before, she helped educate me and gave me so much information I didn’t know about the first time around. She helped make my pregnancy and delivery so memorable. I delivered in a birthing center in Wichita Falls on Christmas Day 2019. My husband was overseas and my mother in law was with my daughter but Heather stayed by my side the entire delivery. I was worried how it would be for me to deliver without my husband but through the 2 hours in labor and after the birth Heather never stopped giving me the support and attention I needed. I felt such a great connection to her the first time we met, and my oldest daughter absolutely adores her! I never thought I’d be able to have a birthing experience like this one. I had a lot of doubts about doing it without medication this time around and family stress had a big negative impact for me. But Heather believed in me. She never pressured me, instead, she encouraged me to believe in myself and follow the plan I believed I was strong enough to do. And I did. I couldn’t possibly thank her enough for the experience she has given me.

I have been pregnant twice and Heather was involved with my second. The birth of oldest daughter was nothing but stress and fear. My OB was great, don’t get me wrong, but I was scared and intimidated and going through the whole thing pretty much on my own. That birth ended up with an epidural and completely doctor led. It ended up not being the greatest of experiences. Jump ahead almost 10 years to my second pregnancy. Heather was there the day I found out and I was beyond excited, but those old fears started creeping up again. I talked to her about literally everything and she put my mind at ease, promising she would be there every step of the way. Needless to say, she kept that promise. Any fear I had, any question that came up, she was there helping me and providing me with answers. She informed me of every option available to me, options I didn’t know I had with my first. She helped me figure out what it was that I wanted by helping educate me with the things I didn’t know about. Unfortunately, little miss didn’t give us the time to have her with me during the birth, but because of her, I found my voice. I told the doctors what I wanted and it was followed with the understanding that should something happen outside of my birth plan, they were to keep me fully informed so I could make the decision with full knowledge of my options. On August 22 of 2019, I was able to have my daughter naturally with only a very mild med to help me relax when my anxiety started to spike at the very beginning of me getting to the hospital. It was the best experience I could have ever asked for, despite the pain, and I have Heather to thank for that and for helping me find the strength in myself again that I hadn’t had in a long time. For anyone seeking a doula, this wonderful lady is the one I would definitely recommend. Honestly, I recommend her to anyone who is pregnant in general or wanting to become pregnant. She is definitely someone to have in your corner and I would give her 1000 stars if that was a thing.

Working with Heather has been wonderful. She has provided guidance and understanding throughout this journey. Heather's calming presence and jovial nature are always welcome around me and my family. I don't believe would have have conceived so rapidly without the support Heather has provided, as a naturopath and through Womb Light.
