Ratings and reviews
I feel so lucky to have found Karena to be my doula. I am new to Georgia and knew I wanted a doula to navigate the health system here (which does not have the greatest reputation when it comes to maternal health outcomes). I spoke with several doulas but Karena was the only one I immediately felt comfortable with. She is highly organized, efficient, responsive, and very calm (important for a high-stress person such as myself)! We had several meetings before my due date, including a session where she taught both my husband and I comfort techniques to use during delivery. This was SO essential because my labor ended up being very rapid (with no time for an epidural) and my husband and I relied on all the techniques that Karena showed us to minimize my pain. Karena was able to join for delivery and was such a calming presence. I am very grateful that I found her and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for support before, during, and after delivery. I will definitely be reaching out to her again if we have another child.

The best decision we made to prepare for the birth of our daughter was hiring Karena! She was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and kind, and prompt to respond to all our late night text messages. I had a long labor, and I don’t know what I would’ve done without Karena by my side. During birth, Karena was right there to offer support and advice when I needed it and was a source of comfort and inspiration when I felt like I couldn’t keep going. If it wasn’t for her I would not have lasted as long as I did without medication! Don’t plan on having anymore kids but if I do, she’ll be there!
