I cannot say enough good things about Jaime and her company. Working with Jaime and her doulas (Michelle) was an absolute privilege. Jaime is kind, capable, thoughtful, reliable, and loving as is Michelle. They both fit right into our family seamlessly and managed our household better than my spouse or I can! My daughters (2.5 and 4.5) and all of us felt completely at ease and loved being with them. Jaime took us on last minute and then went above and beyond supporting all of us so that I could heal and sort out an exceptionally hard baby to nurse. She is very knowledgeable, offering both book and experience insight, and easy to get on with. I feel so incredibly lucky that we were able to work with her. She really cares about and loves what she does, and is very good at it!

Iris was a great help with our kids this summer! She’s very hands on with whatever activity they’re getting into and has built such a great connection with them. They are always so excited on days she comes in and this is especially true when she brings her daughter—who, as far as they’re concerned, is just there for a playdate! Having the extra hand made such a difference over the 3 months as made the move from our old home to our new one! We wish her the best of luck!

We are so thankful to have found Madhu going into my second pregnancy. I was looking for support and encouragement as I prepared mentally for VBAC, and I really felt aligned with how Madhu presented her methods. Leading up to delivery, Madhu instructed me on very specific exercises, movement, stretches, and breath work to optimize my posture and calm my nervous system. We met in-person and practiced these moves together to better prepare my husband and I for labor and delivery. As my due date approached, Madhu kept in touch and maintained such a supportive presence, reminding me that things will happen naturally, and to give my body the time and space it needed for spontaneous labor. I found that her simple and steady communication at this point in my pregnancy had the most value. Her support kept me from doubting myself and allowed me to establish the right mindset. Because I had a C-section with my first pregnancy, I didn’t know what to expect with labor pains or even the onset of spontaneous labor as I was previously induced with pitocin and felt quick intense pain. This time around, my water spontaneously broke (at 40 weeks + 5 days) and contractions started soon after. Madhu met my husband and I at the hospital and immediately went into action by helping me work through positions to manage the discomfort. Keeping an open mind and knowing my experience could still result in another C-section, I really felt comfortable having my support systems in place which ultimately helped my mindset along the way. I truly believe I was able to consequently push through some difficult labor pains. Ultimately I ended up having the birth that I wished for, and I’m so thankful for taking each contraction as a moment to work through! Thank you Madhu!

I have been so lucky to hire Melissa twice as a doula now and I could not recommend her services enough. She is a wonderful advocate for mothers and truly listened to what I needed. She gave me the space to think about what my needs might be and I don’t think I would have known without her there to ask those questions. She helped prep our whole family in a way where I felt so well cared for. For both of the births Melissa was there for, as soon as she walked in I felt a huge sigh of relief. She was there and she had me and my back and I fully trusted her to guide me. We were also fortunate enough to hire her postpartum doulas! We had the pleasure of working with Veronica, Danielle and Bernadette. Everyone brought different outstanding qualities that were a total joy to experience. They went above and beyond to learn about our families needs and fit right in. I trusted all of them with my postpartum care, cooking meals, giving my husband a break and endless sibling entertainment for my bigger kids so I could snuggle in bed with our new baby. I felt so well supported my body was able to heal physically and I could emotionally take space when needed. There was always round the clock care and they were quick to fill our schedule when I quickly realized I needed more support than I had initially intended. I wish all mothers could experience this kind of care.

I am delighted to recommend Grace Kovitch as a postpartum doula. Her sweet nature, care and compassion, and knowledge of newborns made her truly invaluable to our family throughout our daughter’s first four months. Her presence allowed our family to rest, recover, and truly enjoy the precious moments with our newborn. From the moment she stepped into our home, Grace provided a calming presence and a great knowledge about newborn care. She not only assisted with practical needs—such as soothing techniques, infant care, and light household tasks—but also provided the emotional support and reassurance that every new parent needs. Her warm and nurturing nature made all the difference during such a transformative time. (We knew she was the perfect fit for our family when our doberman wouldn’t leave her side! He now waits for her every night!) Additionally, her punctuality and reliability show the level of care she possesses for her clients. I wholeheartedly recommend Grace to any family in need of postpartum support. She is an incredible resource, and any family would be beyond lucky to have her by their side during the postpartum journey.

Having Clarissa as my doula was truly a once in a lifetime experience! Straight from the beginning, she was there for me throughout my entire pregnancy. Whatever questions I had, she helped me answer. She also helped me create a personalized birth plan step by step. When my water broke, I called her immediately and she was on her way. She showed up with things to decorate my hospital room, as well as pain management items, and a peanut & labor ball. Ambient lighting, oil diffuser, and words of affirmation on cards. These things really helped set the tone for my whole labor. As I progressed, I got good use out of all the pain relief items Clarissa brought. My personal favorite was the TENS machine and comb. Clarissa also made sure to advocate for my wants, needs, and rights as a patient. This truly meant a lot to me, as I feared a hospital birth due to hearing about mistreatment of new mothers who aren’t fully aware of their rights. As I started experiencing more intense pain, Clarissa jumped into action to help with pressure points and positioning my body in a way to ease pain. She helped me with breathing techniques and ways to move my hip on the birthing ball she brought along. All of these things made such a tremendous impact on how beautiful my whole experience was. Clarissa was right there squeezing my hand tight, holding my leg, and cheering me along so I knew I was able to do this. That was the strength I needed. Finally, my daughter was born! Clarissa made sure I got immediate skin-to-skin and a good deep latch to kick off my breastfeeding journey. We both laughed and cried when my daughter came out, it was truly one of the most beautiful experiences I’ve ever had! Throughout my postpartum weeks, Clarissa made sure to check in with me daily as she did when I was pregnant to assure I was doing okay, and to answer any general questions I had about breastfeeding, postpartum care, and being a new mom in general! All her advice was so helpful. Choosing Clarissa as my doula was one of the best decisions I could have made. If you want an individualized experience with someone who is passionate about helping moms, Clarissa is the perfect person for that!

I had the pleasure of working with Xiomara for prenatal, birth, and postpartum support, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. She is incredibly knowledgeable, passionate about her work, and truly attentive to the needs of her clients. From the very beginning, she was professional and supportive, helping me create a birth plan that reflected my wishes and values. During labor, she was a strong advocate for me and played a key role in making the experience smooth and empowering. Thanks to her support, I was able to have an unmedicated birth, which was a significantly better experience compared to my first. Her care didn’t stop at birth—she continued to check in during the postpartum period and even recommended excellent services, like a lymphatic drainage massage, that really helped with recovery. She’s very well-connected and a great resource all around. If you’re looking for a dedicated and compassionate doula, Xio is absolutely the one to call.

Five stars is not enough for Maria and her team. Having doula be part of my team for the birth of my third child was an absolute game changer. I was determined to VBA2C and it happened! Maria and Kimberly were a huge part of making that happen. Maria was my primary doula and her support and knowledge throughout my pregnancy and birth was amazing and incredibly helpful. It makes a huge difference to have a medical team that is supportive of your goals and to have multiple people on your team outside of the hospital. And I don't think I would have been able VBAC if it wasn't for Maria

10 out of 10! Amanda is very knowledgeable about labor and delivery. She has been a blessing for us by helping us deliver our first baby. She made visits to our home before the delivery to discuss expectations and she even beat is to the hospital. Very calm and professional. Highly recommend.

I had the opportunity to witness Lauren provide postpartum care for a new mom and her baby, and I was so impressed by the level of support and compassion she offered. She was incredibly patient, gentle, and attentive — always making sure both mom and baby were comfortable, cared for, and reassured during such a tender time. Her calming presence and thoughtful care really made a difference in the recovery process and helped create a peaceful, nurturing environment. It's clear that Lauren is passionate about what she does, and she brings a sense of warmth and professionalism that truly stands out. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for loving, reliable postpartum support!

Working with Katie as a night time postpartum doula was truly invaluable during our newborn stage. Those first few weeks can be exhausting, and having professional overnight support made all the difference in our family’s well-being. I was able to rest knowing my baby was in experienced, attentive, and caring hands. She handled feedings, diaper changes, and soothing with such calm confidence, and always kept me informed while still allowing me the uninterrupted sleep I desperately needed. She also helped in my breastfeeding journey as she would bring the baby to me and put the baby back in the bassinet for me so I never had to leave the bed. I highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for compassionate, professional, and dependable night time postpartum support. It was one of the best investments we made for our family.

Rachel is exceptional. Working with her as our Doula for my first pregnancy was the best decision my husband and I made. She provided valuable prenatal education and resources along with being readily available to answer questions and discuss anything I was concerned about. During labor, Rachel served as a kind, steady and calming cheerleader and coach not just for me, but for my husband as well. He felt just as supported and cared for as I did. I had a long and difficult labor that ended with a C-section and I do not exaggerate when I say that I wouldn’t have survived without Rachel. She did everything from walking my husband through different comfort measures to help me, to holding me through the epidural procedure, and feeding me honey sticks to help keep my energy up. She was a calming and encouraging presence through our biggest life change of becoming parents. I deeply appreciated that postpartum visits are part of what Rachel offers. Those meetings were so helpful in processing through the birth experience and all that comes with postpartum healing and caring for a newborn. Rachel is a life saver and just a genuinely wonderful person. I highly recommend working with her!

I can’t recommend Amanda enough as a doula. She is one of the most intentional and emotionally intelligent people I know, always deeply connected to those around her. Her ability to connect with people in different settings and build lasting, supportive relationships is remarkable. She balances warmth and kindness with professionalism and can be direct when it matters most, ensuring everyone feels heard and understood. Her passion for birth is undeniable, and her open-minded approach creates a space where you never feel judged, no matter what choices you make. She’s incredibly dependable, emotionally present, and will go above and beyond to meet your needs. As a mother herself, Amanda has worked hard to create beautiful, empowering birth experiences, which speaks to her deep understanding and respect for the process. I truly believe anyone who works with her will be in the most capable, compassionate hands.

After giving birth, Miranda sent me an entire Breastfeeding Educational Toolkit for me to utilize as I grew into the journey. And all the while, she affirmed that all options are okay. I appreciated that affirmation. That really means so much in a world, especially on social media, that makes you feel like one way is better and the other way should not even be talked about. She is very informed, evidence-based, and truly supportive of what YOU want and need. Julie

- Julie B.

Destiné was an amazing support for me and my partner. She’s a wealth of knowledge and even gave us laughs in the moments we needed. Without Destinè I know I wouldn’t have been able to accomplish my birth desires as she helped us make solid decisions without fear and regret.

I had such a positive experience working with Brooke! She provided support throughout pregnancy, labor and delivery, and after baby's birth. Brooke empowered me to express my needs and preferences which led to a positive birthing experience. Her calming presence in the delivery room helped ease my anxiety during the birth of my first child. She stayed with us after baby was born until we were settled in a postpartum room and made sure everyone was comfortable before leaving. Brooke truly cares for her clients and is passionate about her work. I would highly recommend her to anyone expecting!

Rasheada Wallace has been an absolute blessing to my family and me during the birth and early postpartum period of our newborn. From the moment we began working together, Rasheada Wallace exceeded our expectations in every way, offering not just professional support, but genuine care and compassion. Rasheada Wallace demonstrated a deep knowledge of birth and postpartum practices, and I felt completely confident in her expertise. Her calm presence and thoughtful guidance helped us navigate every challenge with grace, whether it was providing emotional support during labor or offering practical advice for newborn care. She always took the time to listen to our concerns, answer our questions, and tailor her approach to meet our unique needs. What truly set Rasheada apart was her unwavering dedication to ensuring our well-being as new parents. Her support didn’t end at birth—she continued to check in, offering advice on breastfeeding, infant sleep, and self-care for me as I recovered. Her encouragement and reassurances were invaluable, and her hands-on assistance with our newborn allowed us to adjust to our new role with much more confidence and peace of mind.

I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about my doula, Tina Alisha. From the very beginning, she made me feel heard, supported, safe, and cared for. Her presence throughout my journey was truly a blessing, and I’m so grateful that I had her by my side. Tina went above and beyond to make sure I felt confident, informed, and prepared. She listened to my concerns without judgment, encouraged me when I needed it most, and reminded me of my strength when I needed that extra reassurance. Her compassion, patience, knowledge, and genuine love for what she does truly shine through. What stood out to me the most was how Tina made me feel like more than just a client. She genuinely cared about me, my experience, and my baby. She created a sense of comfort and peace during moments that could have easily felt overwhelming. Having Tina as my doula made such a beautiful difference in my experience. I will forever be grateful for the encouragement, support, kindness, and memories she gave me during such an important chapter of my life. She was my voice when I was medically out of it and my babies protector. Solar & I will forever be grateful We Love You Nature Momz 💗❤️
