Danielle has guided and supported me through so many different experiences in motherhood. She is heartfelt, warm and well-rounded in everything pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood. What makes her truly special is the way she makes you feel. Her voice and passion for supporting women has genuinely changed my outlook on my own care and taught me how important it is for mothers to feel understood, respected, and empowered. I once heard someone say, “If a mom has something negative or judgmental to say about another mom, they simply don’t get it.” That has always stuck with me because, as mothers, judgment and unsolicited advice seem to come from everywhere: You should do this. Why did you do that? When I was pregnant, I did this... Danielle is truly the first mom I have ever been blessed to know who has simply loved, listened, and cared about what I am experiencing without a single ounce of judgment. She is one of the most accepting and understanding mothers I have ever had the privilege of walking through motherhood with. We are all walking our own paths in life and motherhood, and when we lift one another up instead of judging one another, we empower each other to do things we may not have believed we could do. Danielle taught me that. If you have the opportunity to have Danielle support you through pregnancy, postpartum, or motherhood, you will be in the most loving and capable hands. She is truly a rare find, and any mother would be lucky to have her in her corner. ❤️

Luciana was an exceptional night doula/newborn care specialist and support for us and our son. She has such a warmth about her and a love for what she does, and she is so knowledgeable; she put our new parent minds at ease, and we learned so much from her. She helped us transition home from a prolonged hospital stay, and she went above and beyond, checking in with us during the day as well to help with feeding and sleep suggestions. Would highly highly recommend her, she is the best!

Ranee helped me give birth to my son a week ago. I began this pregnancy receiving prenatal care from a hospital local to me. During my time with the hospital, they made me feel scared about my birth due to my age, and history of high blood pressure in my first pregnancy. Each appointment was very short and I never felt like I mattered to the provider. The final straw of me leaving the medical model was the doctor pushing the rhogam shot on me even after I explained that my husband and I both have negative blood types so we don’t need the shot. The doctors reply was to ask me if I am sure the baby is my husbands and then pushed third trimester ultrasounds on me to see if my placenta was old, the fluid too little or the baby too big, none of which has evidence based benefit to get a late term ultrasound. I left my final appointment feeling insulted and that I wasn’t listened to. This is when I found Ranee. From the very beginning of our interaction, she gave me evidence based options and made me feel confident in my ability to birth my baby naturally. She made sure to monitor my blood pressure, levels in my blood and my glucose levels. Each prenatal appointment, she spoke to me as someone she cared about and was very thorough to look into my diet and water intake and solve problems before they develop. I enjoyed the hands on approach as she felt my baby’s position, could estimate the fluid levels and heard the heart beat of my son as he moved to ensure the placenta was working as it should. The one difficult part about this model of care is the need for the mother to be understanding of Ranee’s changing schedule. Ranee has clients in all different stages of care and when someone is dealing with pregnancy loss, giving birth or other emotional factors in their life, Ranee is there with them providing care. This is both a negative and a positive because it means when you are dealing with something difficult, she will be there for you too. When it came time that I was in labor, we were set up with everything we needed. My husband was able to make a beautiful sacred space with candle light, incense and Gregorian chants in the background. It was so beautiful and relaxing. When I was ready to give birth, Ranee was there helping me to relax and reassuring me that I could do it. I gave birth to my son in a birthing pool with my midwife standing by watching over me and providing hands on help as needed. Between the two models, I would choose to give birth at the house with Ranee standing by every time. I know if she tells me I need to transfer to the hospital it would be for good reason and not because my birth became inconvenient for her. The birth of my son is a moment I will remember forever with fondness.
