Nadine Ross Birth & Postpartum Doula in Whitby, ON

I could not say enough good things about our experience with Nadine, both during my pregnancy and during labour / delivery. As a pelvic floor physiotherapist I knew of the importance of having a doula on my birth team and I’m so happy we were able to have her. I was able to have my birth completely unmedicated and truly do not think I could have done it without Nadine. My husband and I felt completely supported by her throughout the labour and all of our education sessions before hand helped us feel prepared and ready for the delivery. We will 100% be having her on our birth team for any future deliveries!

— Brittany Pereira

We had Nadine as "our" doula for our second baby. She was amazing, she brought a lot of knowledge and equipment/things to help my wife with the delivery. I'm very satisfied with her service!

— Matthieu

We hired Nadine during my second pregnancy because I longed for a better birth experience than my first. From the moment I first spoke with Nadine, I knew we had found someone special. During our conversation I asked her what an unmedicated birth felt like since I had gotten an epidural for my first out of fear of the unknown. She was the first person who could ever explain it to me in a way that made sense and after speaking with her I didn’t feel scared anymore. Throughout my pregnancy she sent me some great resources that helped me really think about my birth experience and what I wanted which ultimately helped me decide to change healthcare providers so that I could give birth at a hospital that was more aligned with my birth preferences. When labour began, I wasn’t afraid or worried, I felt prepared and excited. I knew I had chosen the right team to support me. When Nadine arrived at the hospital, her calming presence helped me feel grounded. She guided me through each contraction with confidence and encouragement and somehow knew what I needed each time to be able to keep going. Because of her incredible support, I was able to have the unmedicated water birth I had dreamed of. Our son was born in the birth tub after just a few pushes, and it remains one of the most empowering and beautiful experiences of my life. I truly believe Nadine played a huge role in helping me achieve the birth I had hoped for. If you’re considering hiring a doula, I cannot recommend Nadine enough. She is a compassionate, knowledgeable professional who genuinely cares about the families she supports. She gave us confidence, comfort, and strength during one of the biggest moments of our lives.

We just had our 2nd child and we booked with Nadine again because of our amazing experience with our first child (see initial review below). 20 months later, Nadine helped me during my labour and I had a successful VBAC (vaginal birth after c-section). She offered great supports during labour like leg massages, anti nausea smelling oils, counter pressure during contractions, etc. I knew I was in excellent hands and my birth experience was greatly improved with her by my side. From Nov 2024: Nadine was our doula who helped us navigate the journey of child birth. I was so grateful for her knowledge and wisdom passed on during the pre-birth consultations. It helped calm our nerves and be able to focus on what was important like making a birth plan. When I started going into labour, Nadine offered great advice to wait until baby’s arrival was more imminent before going into the hospital. She also was an amazing advocate for me once I was admitted at the hospital. I wanted a natural birth but our baby had to be delivered via C-section at the last minute due to complications. Nadine kept me calm and explained what this change would mean and how I could shift my expectations. She also helped explain the process to my husband and family who felt overwhelmed by this last minute decision to choose a C-section. Overall, Nadine was a godsend to my husband and I as first time parents. She even gave our son his first bath at home a few days after he was home (after-care visit). We highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a guide and all around great practitioner as you welcome a new addition to your family :)

— Rachel Schock

We had Nadine as part of our journey for both of our children. Both times she was a supportive and knowledgeable resource. We unfortunately had a conflict with our first but she sent an awesome doula in her place to support us and we got to have Nadine join us for our second. She was a cam and reassuring presence, helping to clearly explain options and answer questions in between doctor visits. Took the pressure off my husband to have to provide solo support and he could just focus on being present with me. Highly recommend!!

— Kelly Verberne

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Nadine. Going into labour, I wasn’t able to have my partner with me, which was incredibly difficult and not at all how I had imagined my birth experience. But having her by my side made all the difference—I genuinely don’t know how I would have done it without her. From the very beginning, she was always there for me. She helped me create a birth plan, walked me through every option, and made sure I felt informed and confident in my choices. During labour, she explained everything as it was happening, which helped ease so much anxiety and made me feel grounded and in control. She advocated for me when I needed it most and ensured my voice was heard. Even when things didn’t go the way I had originally planned, she remained a constant source of support, comfort, and reassurance. She helped me feel empowered in my birth experience, no matter how it unfolded. She was like having a nurse—but better. Always present, always attentive, and always genuinely caring. Beyond her role as a doula, she is just an incredible person—kind, compassionate, and deeply dedicated to the people she supports. I truly couldn’t recommend her enough. She made one of the most vulnerable experiences of my life feel safe, supported, and even empowering. I will forever be grateful for her.

— Taylor Vanderhorn

Working with Susan and the team at Beautiful Beginnings was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Susan was incredibly organized, responsive, and always on top of every detail throughout the entire planning process. She made us feel so much more confident and at ease as the bride and groom, knowing everything was being handled carefully and professionally. She truly brought our vision to life, and we honestly couldn’t have done it without her. We’re so grateful for all of her hard work and support and would highly recommend Beautiful Beginnings to any couple planning their special day!

2022: Nadine is such a great professional and I will be forever thankful to have hired her! From the very beginning, Nadine was always available to answer my questions. During my first months of pregnancy, she provided me with lots of materials that helped me prepare emotionally and psychologically for what was to come. During our pre natal meetings, we discussed my birth wishes, she taughed me natural pain relief strategies, and lots of important stuff about how to take care of a baby. When the time came for the most important day of my life, Nadine's presence made a huge difference in the experience I had. Long story short: I had a "fast and furious" delivery, and Nadine was the one who "catched" my baby! She did so with the approval of my midwife, because the midwife had already worked with Nadine in the past and she knew how competent Nadine is! After my delivery, Nadine always checked on us. One week later, she visited us, assisted with some breastfeeding issues, taught us how to bath the baby, and helped us with lots of other useful tips. I can't write about every single thing that Nadine helped me with, but I get emotional just to think about how important she was in the most special moment of my life. My family loves Nadine and she will always have a special place in our hearts!!! ❤️ Updating this review in May/2026: As I got pregnant with mt second baby, I immediately wanted to hire Nadine. And it was the best decision (again). We had a planned home birth and Nadine made sure everything was properly set up, even before the midwives arrived. She supported me all the way through labour, making sure that the experience was as smooth as possible. I can confidently say that her hands are magical, because when she massaged my back during contractions, the pain hugely improve. Towards the end, when the pain was unbearable, her massage on my calf made me relax so deeply that for a good few minutes I totally forgot I was in labour. Nadine knows when you need words of encouragement, when you need water, when you should use the toilet... She notices when you are cold, when you are feeling hot and need a fan... when you just need silence... she will make sure that you have the best environment for your birth. I can't thank you enough, Nadine! Thanks again for being part of our story! ❤️

Nadine was my birth doula for my second daughter, and choosing her was one of the best decisions we made. At first, we just wanted a backup in case my husband couldn’t be there during labor since we don’t have family around. But she ended up being so much more than that. From the beginning, Nadine brought a calm and positive energy that made me feel more optimist about doing a VBAC, and did it!! During the prenatal session, she shared a lot of helpful and practical information that really prepared us. During labor, when the pain was very intense, she supported me with different techniques to manage it and helped everything go as smoothly as possible. She was also always there to answer my questions and explain things in a clear and simple way even during post partum. With her experience and knowledge, I only wish we had known her during my first pregnancy, I can easily imagine how much she could have helped us then, especially during the postpartum period when we felt quite lost with the first baby. Thank you again, Nadine!! I highly recommend her, especially for families like ours who don’t have much support nearby. Sadia

We had the absolute pleasure of having Nadine as our doula, and I truly can’t recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she supported my husband and me with an incredible depth of knowledge and care. Before birth, she provided us with an abundance of guidance around labour and delivery, as well as newborn care, which made us feel informed, confident, and genuinely prepared going into the experience. Her support during labour is something I honestly can’t even put into words. She brought such a calming, grounding presence into the room that completely changed our experience. Her guidance helped us navigate some difficult moments and decisions with the medical team, and she offered thoughtful, steady support with pain management every step of the way. Nadine has a truly special way of making you feel safe, supported, and empowered. What could have been an overwhelming experience became something incredibly positive and memorable because of her. We are so grateful to have had her by our side and would recommend her to anyone without hesitation.

— Natassia Clifford

Nadine is an angel. I was impressed by her from the beginning. Shes incredibly knowledgable, and was able to teach me more than any other resource. She was invaluable during my labour and before. I had a tough back labour and she helped me with techniques to manage pain. For me she was like that fun aunt that you always want around. If you’re considering a doula I’d highly recommend Nadine, you will not be disappointed.

— Maria S

I recently worked with Nadine from Beautiful Beginnings Birth Services for the pregnancy and birth of my first baby girl, and I truly cannot imagine going through the experience without her. From the very beginning, she was incredibly insightful and helped me and my husband feel prepared and informed about what to expect. My labour ended up being very traumatic, but Nadine was there every single step of the way — not only supporting me, but guiding and reassuring my husband as well. In the moments where I felt overwhelmed, she became my advocate and my calm. Looking back, I am so grateful I chose to have her by my side because I honestly don’t know how I would have navigated such a difficult birth without her support. She also prepared placenta capsules for me, which I found really helpful during my postpartum recovery. Beyond her knowledge and experience, Nadine is just a genuinely warm and caring person. Our conversations meant a lot to me, and she helped turn what could have been an overwhelmingly negative experience into something I can talk about positively. I wholeheartedly recommend her — she made a very hard birth manageable, and I know my experience would have felt very different without her.

— Cara Hirsch

I had an amazing experience with our doula, Nadine Ross. From the prenatal home visits to the hospital labour and delivery to the postpartum visit, she was exceptionally knowledgeable, professional and practical. She was a great source of support and calm throughout the whole labour and delivery process. I would highly recommend her and her services.

— Charlene S.

Nadine is an absolute gem. She was our birth doula for our first baby and looking back she was absolutely indispensable for my confidence during pregnancy and at birth. She was a source of support, knowledge, kindness and an advocate for me and my birth plan. We've already recommended her to a bunch of our pregnant friends, and will most definitely call her back if we have another kid. Nadine also put us in touch with her incredible network of night doulas who helped us in the first weeks and took great care of us and our baby. Both my partner and I can't recommend her enough.

— clotilde prozzo

We are so grateful for Nadine's support as we welcomed our second child. Her calm presence, knowledge, and compassion made us feel supported and confident throughout labour and recovery. She respected our choices, and provided both emotional reassurance and practical help when we needed it most. We couldn’t have asked for better support and highly recommend her.

— Nicole W

Nadine is a phenomenal doula and provided amazing mental, emotional, and physical support throughout my pregnancy and birthing journey. Leading up to birth, Nadine’s prenatal lessons provided the perfect balance of empathy and evidence based information that helped reduce my anxiety as a first time mom. Being informed on the many possible ways labour could pan out was extremely empowering for me, and creating a birth plan with Nadine’s guidance really helped me understand what was important to me and why. She was also available as a listening ear when I had some late pregnancy complications, always providing support and education when I needed it. During my labouring process at home and then in the hospital, Nadine’s support was incredible - from the big things like pain management and making sure I stayed hydrated, to the small things like making sure I had clean towels on top of the birthing ball and squat stool. As an avid overthinker, I was able to completely relinquish control and immerse myself in the birthing process due to my trust in Nadine and my birth team. Even when things didn’t go according to plan (which is often the case), I was completely calm and at peace because Nadine had already educated myself and my partner on what to expect with the interventions that I needed. All in all, I would definitely recommend Nadine to anyone!

— Cheryl Lau

I had Nadine as my birth doula for my first child, and hiring her was truly one of the best decisions I made to prepare for birth. She was a constant, calming presence and an incredible source of support throughout my labour. Nadine was also amazing at guiding my husband on how he could best support me, which made such a difference. My birth experience was infinitely better with her by my side. I honestly can’t imagine doing it without her! Throughout my pregnancy, she answered all of our questions, and we learned so much from her prenatal and postpartum home visits. I can’t recommend Nadine enough to any expectant mamas. The level of care, knowledge, and support she provides is truly invaluable. We will absolutely be calling her again for any future children!

— Hillary Kennedy

Nadine was an integral part of my birth journey. She helped advocate for me and provided expert support in what was a very vulnerable time. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for greater support throughout their pregnancy/birth!

— sophia swystun

Nadine was an invaluable part of the entire process, from pregnancy, to birth, to postpartum. We feel as if we truly could not have done it without her! A wealth of knowledge and experience, you will not regret working with her!

— Ty Sherback

Nadine played a huge role in helping us prepare mentally and emotionally for my birth. She helped us walk through every scenario, understand our options, and feel empowered about my choices. When it came time for my planned c-section as my baby was breach, we had to switch up our birth plan from the original one we created together, which she made very easy for us. She advocated for me based on the birth plan we created together, stood by me along with my husband post c-section to help me and make sure my recovery was going well. One thing I am especially grateful for is the support she gave me in my breastfeeding journey. From the moment my daughter was born, Nadine was there helping me navigate those first feeds, showing me positioning, and giving me tips that made everything feel so much more manageable. I truly feel that if it hadn’t been for her guidance, I would have struggled so much more with adjusting and figuring out how to breastfeed. Having Nadine by our side during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum was an absolute blessing. Her care, her knowledge, her patience, and her genuine passion for what she does made all the difference. I cannot recommend her enough, she is truly an incredible doula and, we are forever thankful for her support during such an important time in our lives. Thank you so much Nadine, Jessica & Denis ❤️

— Jessica Balicevac

From the first prenatal meeting, Nadine brought clarity and confidence to a journey that felt overwhelming at first. She guided us through gentle exercises tailored to my pregnancy, helped us understand each stage, and made sure we felt informed — not just as “clients,” but as first-time parents learning about childbirth. When labour began, having Nadine by our side changed everything. She stayed calm under pressure, whispered encouragement when things got intense, and partnered with my partner in supporting me physically and emotionally. Her presence helped transform the hospital room from anxiety-filled to peaceful and empowering. In the early days at home with our newborn, Nadine didn’t disappear. She offered thoughtful advice, checked in on our mental health, gently guided breastfeeding and newborn care questions and reassured us during those foggy first nights. Her consistent compassion made the transition to parenthood – especially with our first child – so much gentler and more manageable. If you have the chance to work with Nadine, consider yourself lucky — she truly cares, is deeply knowledgeable, and helped us feel confident and supported every step of the way.

— Sal Kappos

As first-time parents, we were nervous, but Nadine guided us with incredible knowledge and warmth. Her prenatal sessions were informative and hands-on, and during labour, she was nothing short of amazing. She came to us in the middle of the night with pain management tools and stayed by our side through it all, helping me achieve the birth I'd hoped for. After our baby arrived, her postpartum visit was a lifesaver! She taught us how to bathe, swaddle, and breastfeed our newborn with such patience. If you're looking for an experienced, supportive, and truly wonderful doula, we wholeheartedly recommend Nadine. She made all the difference in our journey!

— Nick Ad

We are so grateful to have had Nadine as our birth doula. From the moment we met her, she brought a calm, reassuring energy that made us feel completely supported and confident. She took the time to really get to know us, helped us prepare for labour, and was always available to answer questions or offer encouragement. During labor, she was incredible — grounding, patient, and intuitive about what I needed at every moment. Her presence made all the difference for my wife and I. After the birth, Nadine continued to check in and offer thoughtful postpartum support. We can’t recommend her highly enough — she truly went above and beyond in every way. Thank you, Nadine, for helping us have such a positive and empowering birth experience! 💕

— Ryan French

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Nadine is absolutely amazing! She’s so knowledgeable and truly the sweetest person. She made me feel supported and confident every step of the way. She speaks Spanish really well, which made communication so easy and comforting for me. She’s also super organized and always came prepared with all the resources and information I needed during each visit. On top of that, she’s incredibly responsive, always available to answer questions and offer guidance. I can’t recommend her enough!

— Laura Rodriguez

Nadine is an outstanding doula whose warmth, expertise, and compassion made all the difference in our birthing journey. From the very first meeting, she created a sense of trust and safety, guiding us with wisdom and empathy. Her deep knowledge—drawn not only from her professional experience but also from her own four births—gave me confidence at every stage, from pregnancy preparation to postpartum care. During labour, Nadine’s calm, reassuring presence helped me stay grounded, while her gentle humour and practical tips made even the most intense moments feel manageable. She supported my husband and me, ensuring we both felt involved, prepared, and cared for. I cannot imagine our first birth without her, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a doula.

— Uliana Flynn

We were so grateful for Nadine! She was truly there for us in our moment of need calm, knowledgeable, and full of compassion. As first time parents, we had so many questions and uncertainties, but Nadine guided us every step of the way, teaching us how to care for our baby and giving us the confidence we needed. Her support made all the difference during those early days, and looking back, choosing her was one of the best decisions we made. We can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for a caring, professional, and truly exceptional doula!

— Ben Flynn

If you are looking for the best birth doula in the GTA, there’s no need to look further! Nadine is very professional and knowledgeable but at the same time personal and kind. She made us feel very comfortable throughout the birth journey. Also, I found her postpartum support very helpful. Hoping to engage Nadine’s services in the future again if we are blessed with a second bundle of joy.

— Liya Ishanova

Nadine was our birth doula and she exceeded all expectations. She was very supportive, informative and professional during the entire process. We highly recommend her services. Thanks a lot, Nadine, for your support.

— The Great Outdoors

Nadine was an integral part of my labour and birthing journey and I honestly can't imagine how things could have gone without her there helping to guide my husband and I through what ended up being an extremely traumatic hospital birth. The preparation we received ahead of labour helped us fully understand the choices presented by the hospital staff who absolutely rushed through things while we were in the heat of the moment. I did not feel the gyno team at the hospital had my back at all, but I knew Nadine did, and against all odds, I delivered my baby vaginally. Thank you for coaching me and advocating for me through the most intense moment of my life so far - I will never forget how you stood up for me and my baby and guided us safely to the other side.

— Kate Roberts

Nadine is an incredible doula and I highly recommend her services to any expecting parents, regardless of what kind of birth you're planning for. She is incredibly knowledgeable and as first-time parents, it felt so comforting to know that someone would be in the delivery room who has attended hundreds of births! Nadine is reassuring and encouraging, but I also really appreciated her pragmatism. I also appreciated the exercises and education she provided leading up to our daughter's birth, as well as her help in developing a birth plan. I was worried about delivering at a hospital because I didn't want my birth experience to be unnecessarily medicalized. Nadine helped us create a simple one page birth plan that made it easy for the medical staff to provide us with the environment we wanted in the delivery room. Of course you never know what will happen when you give birth, but the fact that I had a smooth labor that lasted less than 12 hours from the time my water broke to the time my baby was born is in large part due to the inner calm and peace I felt at knowing I had Nadine on my birthing team. Thank you, Nadine!

— Creighton Camera

Nadine was our doula for the birth of our son. He is our first baby, so we were nervous about the birthing experience. Nadine was knowledgeable and kind. Throughout the pregnancy and birth, she was with us every step of the way. Her in-home visits and classes put our minds at ease and gave us the confidence that we would have a smooth labour and delivery. She responded to our questions quickly and offered a calm presence during my delivery. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone considering hiring a doula! Thank you, Nadine!

— Yuqing Robinson

My husband and I highly recommend Nadine and wish we had her involved with our first child’s birth as well. She is calm, positive, knowledgeable and caring! She worked collaboratively with our midwives and was an essential part of our birth experience. I highly recommend having Doula support if you’re able! Definitely give Nadine a call to see if she is the right fit for you! L and T

— Laura And Tyler

Nadine was a GREAT and essential support during labor. She helps me cop with the pain, decision making and shared ressources about labor procedures. She also offers 2 complete prenatal visits on labor and newborn care. I do recommend her 100% !

— Joanie Savoie Gnabro

As first-time parents, we were incredibly grateful to have Nadine by our side, especially as we aimed for an unmedicated birth. Her support was instrumental in helping us achieve that goal. She provided us with invaluable information, comfort measures, and unwavering encouragement throughout labor and delivery. She made my husband and I super comfortable and at ease during labor as well. During postpartum, she continued to be a rock, offering practical assistance with newborn care and breastfeeding. Her calming presence and expertise made the entire journey significantly smoother. We highly recommend Nadine to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate doula, especially those desiring an unmedicated birth experience!

— Mathoraa Selvanathan

As would be first time parents in Canada we were nervous, hence reached out to Nadine for her doula services. Thank God we did! Nadine is knowledgeable and provided support before, during and after delivery. Based on my symptoms, she advised on when we should go to the hospital which mentally prepared us in advance. She also provided breastfeeding advice based on my scenario. Nadine is very supportive, kind and a patient doula. We definitely recommend her services. Thank you Nadine, God bless!

— Twinkle Tukra

Thank you Nadine for your knowledge and care during my 2nd birth. The prep was a much needed refresher on what to expect and how to best prepare. Having you alongside us for the labour and birth was a great comfort. I felt much safer and more at ease with you there. I’m so glad we were able to work together, I only wish I had reached out for my 1st pregnancy. Thank you!

— Courtney McAllister

Nadine was a wonderful support for my first birth, earlier this year. I couldn’t be more grateful that we had decided to ask for her help. My birth did not go according to plan and was more difficult than I expected, but looking back I know that I felt empowered and genuinely and warmly supported on that meaningful day. Thank you, Nadine!

— Sasha Kelbas

We are so glad that we cross paths with Nadine. From the first meet and greet, my wife had a really good feeling from Nadine. She felt that she was extremely knowledgeable and was someone who would be able to provide support without judgment on how and where you wanted to give birth. Each time Nadine came for the prep sessions, she was well prepared and provided really useful information - everything from what to expect from the labour and delivery process, how to prepare for it, how to care for your baby in those first few weeks, breastfeeding tips, etc. She provided useful resources before each session to learn on your own and helped guide us to creating a birth plan that worked for us. Nadine was always available to answer our questions. She is kind, empathetic, respectful, and super easy and fun to talk to (aka someone you want around during what can be an intense time!). We will definitely work with Nadine again if we have another.

— Danny Wood

I can't recommend Nadine enough as a birth doula. I got very in my head and ended up interviewing 10, as a first time mom. What sold me on Nadine was that she took herself seriously as a full-time doula, she had stats on all her births and on the year so far, her prep classes were detailed and covered birth and caring for baby (which mattered more as time went on). She knew about hypnobirthing, though I didn't use that so much. She also confirmed she would not leave in the event of an emergency c section and would wait until baby and I would be reunited for golden hour or at least to check on me after, which some would not. She is an experienced mama and doula, while still being young and with it. She has a great sense of humour, easy energy but not too airy fairy at the same time. I felt like she could be assertive if needed. She was SO responsive and detailed, especially during my long labour process. For my birth itself, after 2 days and nights of "inactive" (lol) labour, Nadine ended up coming to my house first and within 2-3 hours got me into active labour, with massage, encouragement, positions etc. Her bags are full of tools and I used her neck fan! She believed in me during 4 hours of pushing when I was losing faith, as a calm and steady presence. She was a machine honestly, with respect to sleeping and eating, taking a short break during the epidural (which I was open to avoiding). I credit her (and a veteran nurse / midwife) for avoiding a C section, which was important to me. She was so gentle and sweet with our baby girl after, I wish I had booked her post partum. Very nurturing and loving presence. Thank you Nadine and hope all the mamas find their right fit

— Vanessa G

Nadine is an amazing doula! Her strong, independent, no B.S. nature is a perfect match for the intensity that can arise during labour. Nadine empowered me with essential information and resources as I navigated a potential induction and eventually an unmedicated birth in a hospital. Her knowledge and presence was invaluable and I know the birth I envisioned and achieved would not have been possible without her. Thank you for the work that you do!

— Dina Carovska

Had an amazing experience, I always wanted a doula for my first but didnt get a chance to but for my second the timing was just right. Nadine and her team answered all my questions taught me all the breathing techniques for unmedicated birth and I felt like i was ready. Best birthing experience i’ve had even with oxytocin i felt very little pain. We 100% recommend!!!!!

— Lisa Vuong

Nadine supported me as a Doula during my nine hour, medication-free, hospital birth of our second child. From the moment I began working with Nadine, I felt safe and comfortable. She was able to listen to my concerns and provide professional feedback. During the labour, she advocated and encouraged my wish to have a medication-free birth. The birth was seamless, and we were able to leave the hospital two hours after delivery. During postpartum, she continued to provide emotional support. Nadine was an important component to our Birth Team. Her professionalism and expertise allowed me to have a positive birth experience.

— Jessica Del Sole

My wife and I couldn't be happier that we have hired Nadine. It took almost 24 hours in the hospital for the baby to be born, and she was there the whole time. She was absolutely amazing!! We don't know what we would do without her. I highly recommend hiring her and we would definitely hire her again. Five stars is an understatement.

— Cesar Carvalho

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Nadine as our doula! She was by my side for the birth of both my babies and it was immensely helpful for me as well as for my husband. I can’t say enough wonderful things. Do not think twice on this decision!

— Sadaf Jahandar

Nadine and her team supported my husband and I with our twin boys since they were 3 days old until 4 months. Nadine’s quality of care is not only limited to the new babies but also to the family and offers her amazing support and knowledge throughout the journey. As we became new parents she really built our confidence. Our twins were well looked after and we trusted Nadine wholeheartedly. We are forever grateful for her services!

— Kristina Fanelli

I met Nadine towards the final stage of my second pregnancy, during the pandemic. She was a very caring and dedicated doula at a time of huge uncertainty, always reassuring me during the process at such a particular time. She also accompanied me during the delivery, at the hospital, while my husband stayed home with our eldest daughter. Nadine was always advocating for me at the hospital, while having a great relationship with the nurses and staff around us. She looked after me until after I delivered my son, making sure I was all good before leaving in the early hours of the morning. I trusted her completely during the process and with my husband we had an excelente experience. I recommend her 100%. Thank you Nadine!

— priscila cortes

My husband and I had the privilege of hiring Nadine as our post partum doula and I cannot emphasize enough how essential her support was during this transformative time. She provided assistance in the evenings with our daughter, who was very calm with Nadine and had the best sleeps when she came to help. From the moment she stepped into our home, her calming presence and wealth of knowledge put us both at ease.She was very caring sending us words of encouragement leading up to the birth, and was easily accessible any time we had questions. Nadine is amazing and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a doula.

— Tizianna Aulino

Nadine was crucial in allowing us to follow through with our birth plan, even though we had an unexpected start to the birth. She was accessible at all times of the day and night, and offered us helpful advice throughout the unexpected turns the birth took. At the birth, she provided much needed mental and physical support and helped me get through each contraction with reassuring words, massage, and counter-pressure. She was also very helpful at communicating with the hospital nurses about my birth wishes. She stayed with us after the birth to make sure we felt comfortable with the next steps, and then came to our house a week later and provided helpful breastfeeding support. She is kind, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. Having Nadine as our doula was the best decision we made and we cannot recommend her enough!

— Amrita Pal

Nadine was absolutely incredible. Her attention to detail through all stages of pregnancy, being readily available for questions when needed, and her nurturing ability to calm and care for you during showtime was astounding. She did not miss one contraction and was there for us through the entire process, and making sure our birth plan went the way we had envisioned. If you’re on the fence about getting a doula, DO IT! Nadine will change your life for the better. I will definitely be seeking her energy and expertise for my subsequent pregnancies. Nadine, thank you for standing by our sides for our Beautiful Beginning 💕

— Charlotte Henry

Nadine is an amazing doula! I was very nervous about giving birth but Nadine’s calm demeanour and vast knowledge put me at ease. She was a critical part of my support team and I am forever grateful for her support! If you have an opportunity to work with Nadine, I highly recommend!!!

Words can't express the gratitude I have for Nadine. From the moment I spoke to her I knew she was the doula I needed. She was easy to reach and talk to, and she eased my anxieties. From early labor to active, she was by my side and she coached me through my pain by using various techniques and tools. Her voice was soothing and encouraging, and she made sure baby and I were safe. Although it was my fourth time going through labor, it was the most excrutiating and challenging one and I honestly wouldn't know how I would've gone through it without her. I will never forget Nadine and this experience with her. She is an experienced, knowledgeable, passionate and caring birth doula, and because of my positive experience with her, I feel that it is only right to leave my review of her. If you choose her, you won't be disappointed. Thank you so much Nadine!

My wife and I are extremely thankful that we met Nadine and can’t imagine having gone through the birthing process of our baby daughter without her. Nadine is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate understanding, dependable and kind. If she’s available for your due date, look no further for a doula - she is your best option!

— Mike Maduro

I can’t say enough great things about working with Nadine! As first time parents, she taught us everything we needed to know from burping and swaddling to labour and delivery. She gave us the tools and confidence we needed to have our baby! If you’re on the fence about working with a doula, I recommend reaching out to Nadine for more info and getting to know her. She’s easy to talk to and an amazing support person.

— Courtney Laurie

The best night doula in the business! Nadine has helped us x2 to get our kids on track with sleep. She used everything in her bag of tricks to get both of our kids sleeping at night and it was a life saver for our family. The sleep deprivation is hard on everyone and having that help even a couple of times a week does wonders to help you recharge physically and mentally. We have felt extremely comfortable having Nadine in our home, even during peak Covid in 2020. She quickly became a new member of the family and helped out some chores (her folding skills would make Marie Kondo envious) Can’t recommend this service enough, we would use again if we had another baby, but I think 3 is likely enough for us!

My husband and I are very thankful for having Nadine as our Doula. I always connected my thoughts about giving Birth with pain, suffering, fear, insecurity, being unsure, have no idea what exactly the process of birth means. All my thoughts, ideas, perceptions about the birth shifted after watching the resources given by Nadine. It helped a lot for us to understand all the aspects of birth and how beautiful the process of birth would be! It was very educative. Nadine helped us to have better and flexible birth plan. Helped with having better clarity that what we want or don’t want as part of our birth process. I was able go through my active labor so gracefully with the sense of being thankful, feeling happy with the process of our baby arrival and being more present because of Nadine was there with us and Nadine helped me to feel comfortable, stay hydrated, keep me warm and be there helping me to withstand the each high intensity contractions and my husband was able to get some peaceful nap in the meantime which helped him to sustain the brain fog for next few hours after baby is born. Thanks a lot Nadine! It would have been harder without you! Nadine is very knowledgeable and was always there for us.

Nadine is amazing!! Baby instantly felt comfortable in her arms. This is the best money I spent, I was able to spend quality day time with my baby since Nadine ensured I had a good nights rest. Highly recommend her.

— Catherine Welch

Highly highly recommend. I’m a first time mom who knew I wanted a doula (for the benefit of both myself AND my partner) before I even became pregnant. Nadine was the first doula I had met with, but I canceled all of my other meetings right after because I knew she was who I wanted there with me and my partner in the delivery room. Nadine is very kind and extremely comforting but also knowledgeable and straight forward. She really does know her stuff! My L&D did not go exactly as I planned, as it never does, but I can honestly say I had such an incredible birthing experience and my partner and I only have positive memories—largely thanks to Nadine. I truly believe she was my saving grace during the whole process, and my partner was sooo happy he had her there to help him navigate all of the changes and how to be there for me. I wish I could relive the moment. We would hire her again in a heartbeat!

After having a rather unpleasant experience with my first labour and delivery, when i became pregnant with my second son i knew i needed a doula to help me with my labour goals the second time around. I met with a few doulas before finding Nadine. Her and I just clicked immediately, and i knew she would do whatever she could to help me achieve my goal of having an unmedicated VBAC. She has lots of knowledge and experience and her with me in the delivery room was helpful, comforting, and calming as she helped my partner enjoy the experience and, I did go on to have a successful unmedicated VBAC. If you are looking for a kind, caring, compassionate and knowledgeable doula, Nadine is all of those things. If i have another child, she will be on my call list.

— Andrea Sheppard

As soon as Nadine walked through our doors, 15 mins early, my wife and I were immediately put at ease. Not only does Nadine have an amazing wealth of knowledge on newborns but she knows how to calm a worried mothers heart. I recommend Nadine to anyone who needs support during birth, at night or during the day. She is our #1 Doula!!!

— Joshua Corber

Nadine was amazing from the start. She listened to our concerns, answered our questions, and helped us build a birth plan that would ensure the birth of our baby boy was as we wanted it. She supported us every step of the way from the moment the contractions started, and guided my husband every step of the way on what to do until she met us at the hospital. Then she was with us every minute until our baby arrived and was a huge source of support during the harder parts of my labour. She then visited us a week after delivery to answer our questions and help us get set up on our first week as parents. She was caring, compassionate and a joy to be with. Thanks you again Nadine for being with us during one of the most special days of our lives!

— Vera Correa

Having Nadine as our doula was the best decision we could’ve made for our pregnancy. I interviewed a few doulas and I had a few key questions for each of them, but most importantly I wanted to find someone that I felt a connection with, and who had experience with various labour outcomes. Nadine was warm, friendly and extremely knowledgeable and fun! We genuinely had an amazing experience, she provided non-stop continuous support throughout my long labour and was always encouraging and supportive. Our prenatal and postpartum visits were great - Nadine shared a lot of valuable information and she is so knowledgeable in spinning babies, optimal exercises and posture to ensure a positive birth experience. She always responded quickly to any questions I had, including when I was in early labour. I already told Nadine we are having her as our doula again when we have our second child, thank you Nadine for everything!

I can't say enough about Nadine. She supported me in the birth of my son. I couldn't have done it without her. She and my husband worked together to support me through many hours of labour. Many times throughout the experience I looked into her eyes and felt comforted and reassured that I could keep going. It meant so much as a first time mom to have her there and know that she had a great deal of knowledge and experience. She was also essential to my pregnancy as I faced a few different complications. She always talked things out with me and made me feel confident in my decisions. She provides a holistic and informed approach. I would recommend Nadine to any pregnant person. It isn't easy being pregnant or delivering a baby. To have someone on your side like Nadine makes a big difference.

— Sarah Amatruda

My husband and I are forever grateful to Nadine for all of the support she provided to us both in preparing and in attending the birth of our first son. I'd always known that I wanted to have children, and my husband and I were overjoyed when we found out we were expecting. There was, however, a gray cloud hanging over me during my pregnancy - fear of the actual birth. Like many first-time moms these days, the only information I had regarding birthing babies came from popular media, which portrayed screaming moms in terrible pain. I'd also known many friends who'd had horror story births resulting in emergency C-sections, etc. Enter Nadine. At the very outset, Nadine provided us with tons of helpful resources to better educate us about the birthing process. Thereafter, she also came to our home and provided us with invaluable in-person lessons. We learned that birthing babies is actually the most natural and wonderful thing a woman's body can do, and that a calm and relaxed mother is the best recipe for a beautiful birth. Nadine provided us with so much education and tools for the big day. She was also very receptive to our wants and needs. Together, we were able to plan and achieve the birth experience of our choice. Nadine was always available and responsive all throughout my pregnancy. On the day of the birth, she arrived at the hospital exactly on time (like we had planned). The doctors and nurses attending my birth weren't exactly the most soothing and nurturing, but anytime I felt taken aback by their comments, I would simply look up at Nadine and knew that she had my back. I was grateful she was there, together with my husband, as part of my birthing team. Together, we brought my son into the world exactly as I had planned - 100% naturally and with a smile on my face. Nadine helped make the birth of my son one of the most beautiful and wonderful experiences of my life. I highly recommend Nadine to anyone who's looking for an experienced birthing Doula.

— Elizabeth Hugh

Absolutely Fabulous! Nadine is gentle, kind and nurturing! Also has a wealth of knowledge with pregnancy, birthing and infants so you truly have the best care and support.

— Kerri Russell

With the birth of my first son I was definitely not prepared as I thought I might have been. With my second I knew I wanted a great experience and get the birth that would be the best for myself. Nadine went beyond with preparing myself with a VBAC and educating me with the process, emotionally, mentally and physically. She has been great to communicate with and always easy to reach even if I ever had one simple question. She’s the female husband that ever pregnant woman needs haha! My husband was the one who also benefitted so much by having her on board our entire pregnancy and labour. Thanks to Nadine and always looking out for my and my baby’s best interest we had a wonderful pregnancy and labour. We can’t wait to use her again in the future.

— Hope S

After our initial meeting with Nadine my husband and I knew Nadine would be our doula. Nadine helped us prepare for our daughter to be born, was there for us during the birth and she even became our night nanny afterwards. We needed the help and our family could not assist us over night and Nadine was the only other person we trusted enough with our child. I would recommend Nadine as your doula or night nanny, I have complete trust and faith in her. I have also recommended Nadine to many other people because she was such a gift.

— Mark & Lindsay

I honestly don't even know where to begin with how grateful I am for Nadine. I can confidently say that I would not have been able to have the home birth that I did without her. The physical and emotional support she provided was outstanding. I had an incredibly long and hard labour, and she never faltered. She helped me through every contraction and provided immense pain relief naturally. If I am still in the area for my next pregnancy, she will be my first call. I would 10/10 recommend her to anyone considering hiring a doula. Jason and I will be forever grateful for Nadine because she played such an integral part in bringing our little girl into the world safely. Hire her, you won't regret it!

— Sonya Ruthven

I had an amazing experience with Nadine as my birth doula. As first time mom, I had many insecurities and Nadine helped me navigate through birth preparation, birth and postpartum with compassion and knowledge. Thanks to her I felt confident and supported in my choices. I highly recommend Nadine!

— Miriam Lesa

Nadine and I clicked from our very first meet and greet. Her aura was warm, welcoming and accepting which was very important to me. Nadine was the perfect balance and really helped us approach the delivery with a complimentary medicine approach. She helped us understand the ins and outs of the process so that we could make an informed decision about each step. she helped us have a smooth and easy delivery

— Netisha Gupta

Nadine is one of a kind-amazing person and doula. She goes above and beyond supporting a new mom - to be during pregnancy and labour. She is caring, passionate and very knowledgeable in what she does. She made me feel comfortable, I felt heard and understood. I can not imagine going through this journey without her. Thank you Nadine for your support and help through my pregnancy journey and the labour!

— Olga* K

Nadine is one of the most caring and thoughtful Doulas I have ever met . She truly cares about YOUR birth plan. She listens, she coaches and is there for you. Her postpartum care is second to none. When Nadine is in your home overnight you can get a good nights sleep while she cares for your bundle of joy. She is a Doula who truly cares. You couldn’t choose any one better to be by your side ! I would recommend her to anyone who is pregnant, about to give birth or adjusting to life with a new born !
