I booked Sara Luna for an overnight service and she was fantastic. She was so warm, helpful, and supportive, did our laundry and dishes overnight and even offered to cook for us! Cannot recommend her enough. I also had an issue with the payment that was completely my fault and Sara was so incredibly gracious and understanding ❤️ you can't go wrong with her support :)

Katie at Little Lilacs Birth Services was absolutely incredible! From the very beginning of my pregnancy, she was there to guide me through every step, patiently answering my million questions and offering expert advice that always made me feel supported and confident. She helped us revisit and refresh all the birth techniques we had learned before, giving us the tools and reassurance we needed to achieve another unmedicated birth with confidence. During labor and birth, Katie was calm, attentive, and completely present. Her support went beyond just guidance—she anticipated our needs, encouraged us when we felt unsure, and helped create a birth experience that felt empowering and safe. Beyond her professional expertise, Katie has a warmth and kindness that makes her feel like a lifelong friend. She truly cares about the families she works with and goes above and beyond to make the journey from pregnancy to birth as smooth and joyful as possible. I can’t recommend Katie and Little Lilacs Birth Services enough to anyone looking for a doula who combines knowledge, compassion, and genuine friendship.

Hello! I used Momitalk during my last ultrasound and found it super convenient to access everything in one place. Is that something available at your studio too?

I had a really wonderful experience working with Carrie and Hannah. Our intro call was very helpful to determine if we were a good fit and the process of getting signed up was easy. I decided to take the birth course offered by Ginger Blossom and was able to meet with Carrie and Hannah in my home. It was very informative and they were both approachable, warm, encouraging, supportive, felt like new friends while also being professional. They were prompt in answering any questions I had via text. During labor, Carrie was helpful talking to both me and my husband on the phone over a day and an half while I was waiting for labor to progress further until we made the decision for her to come in for in-person support. Carrie was a great support in-person as well- to both me and my husband. I was so glad to have Carrie on my team while I had my first baby. Would highly recommend exploring Ginger Blossom for your doula services.

We hired Nadine as our doula after feeling that we needed more support through the pregnancy and birthing process. Nadine was amazing - supportive, experienced and knowledgeable. She provided us with lots of resources, answered all our questions and when it came to the birth, remained calm and provided reassurance when things didn’t go to plan. She also provided invaluable support post birth. I firmly believe that everyone should hire a doula and if you are very lucky, you will find one as great at Nadine.

Andrea supported us for the birth of our first child, and I was able to have the unmedicated birth I hoped for. She was available leading up to the birth for emotional preparation, and helped me labor through the night at home so I arrived at the hospital already in active labor — a real accomplishment for me. She was in our room minutes after we checked in, interfaced beautifully with my medical team, and paid close attention to my cues, offering well-timed suggestions that kept me calm and progressing. When we hit a few unexpected bumps, she helped me stay steady rather than anxious. I'd recommend her without hesitation — she was kind, respectful of my birth preferences, and easy to trust during such a vulnerable time.

As a first-time mom and someone who really does not function well without sleep, postpartum was probably what I was most nervous about... (especially after having a necessary C-section!) I interviewed a couple different postpartum care teams and found the Newborn Dream Team immediately made me feel at ease. The first few weeks after giving birth were honestly a lot. Between recovering from my C-section, figuring out life with a newborn, and not having family in town, I was much more anxious and overwhelmed than I expected to be. I cannot thank Danielle, Pamela and Abbey enough for being there for us during that time. They were so helpful in those early weeks, not only with the baby, but with helping us figure out what worked for our family. They answered all of my questions, gave me reassurance when I needed it, and helped me feel more relaxed and confident as a new mom without ever making me feel like I didn't know what I was doing. I was breastfeeding, and they were so supportive of that while also helping us introduce a bottle. They always let us lead with what we felt most comfortable with and never made us feel pressured to do things a certain way. And honestly, being able to get some much-needed sleep knowing our baby was safe and in such good hands was *priceless.* They also helped us establish a really great routine and healthy sleep habits, and our baby was sleeping through the night by five weeks! We will miss Danielle and Pamela SO much, but it makes me so happy knowing they're always in our corner. I truly cannot recommend Newborn Dream Team enough. They made those first few weeks so much easier and more enjoyable, and I am so grateful we found them. 🤍

I highly recommend having Sweet Embrace Doula to be apart of your birth team. We had a great experience. You actually get two doulas. Molly is incredibly knowledgeable with nutrition and herbal medicine. Ally has so many amazing offerings to help make your PP a healing experience. It was so helpful to be able to ask Molly and Ally all of my questions. It was so nice having their support while I was pregnant and PP. It was great to get their opinions when I was unsure about something; this helped me feel confident with my decisions to have a great birth, and to do whatever I could to keep my precious little one safe and healthy. Ally attended my birth and we were so relieved when she showed up at the hospital. She helped make my birth experience a beautiful one and she helped keep the energy calm and peaceful. She advocated for my needs. Ally has an amazing energy and my partner was so happy to have her on the team since she was there for the both of us.

Amazing! 10/10 Juile made my whole birth experience super enjoyable. From coming up with a birth plan suitable for me to being by our side during labor and delivery. I'm honestly so blessed she was able to help me birth my first baby boy. Birth itself is nerve wracking but she made me feel very comfortable with how knowledgeable and supportive she is. She not only took stress off my plate but also my partners allowing him to be present during labor and delivery.

This September, my husband and I had the pleasure of having Noa as our birth doula, and we truly couldn’t be more grateful for her and Alex. From the very beginning, we felt so comfortable, supported, and connected with them. They made themselves incredibly accessible throughout the entire experience and provided us with resources for anything we needed, even beyond what they directly covered. I had a 20-hour labor and delivery that was completely unmedicated, and I truly don’t believe I could have gotten through it without Noa by my side. Her encouragement, guidance, and reassurance through every stage of labor and every intense contraction were exactly what I needed. Because of the labor preparation they provided, my husband felt confident helping me through the beginning stages of labor, and once we got to the hospital, he and Noa worked seamlessly as a team to make sure my needs were always being met. As a nurse myself, I initially didn’t think I would need an advocate to help me with my birth preferences. But we were incredibly grateful to have Noa there. She was there to remind the healthcare team of our wishes, advocate for our preferences, and remain firm when needed, allowing my husband and me to stay focused on the birth of our baby. Noa was such an integral part of one of the most important experiences of our lives. She went above and beyond in every way, and we will forever consider her family. We are so grateful for everything she did for us and already know she will be by our side for all of our future births. We cannot recommend Noa and Alex enough! ❤️

Having Vee as our postpartum doula was one of the best decisions I made. We worked with her several nights a week over a five-week period, and she was a wonderful support during those early weeks with our son. I felt very comfortable leaving him with her, which allowed me to get a few extra hours of sleep and rest. Furthermore, it was very reassuring to have someone knowledgeable observing him during those weeks, helping us identify patterns in his behavior, preferences or any discomfort he might be having. Vee was not only very caring and attentive with our baby, but also incredibly supportive and thoughtful towards me as a new mom. She was always calm, reassuring, and understanding of what I needed, which made having her around feel very easy and comfortable. We really appreciated her help and would definitely recommend her to other new parents.

I was so thankful to have Jesse as our postpartum doula. They always showed kind, loving care when taking care of our baby; I knew he was in safe, expert hands whenever she was with him. I deeply appreciated their knowledge and guidance, especially the way they pointed out key development markers that gave us much-needed confidence. What makes Jesse truly special is the way she cares for the whole family. While my birth didn’t go as planned, they served as a vital sounding board—commiserating and encouraging me exactly when I needed it most. She has a rare ability to intuit what needs to be done without being asked, whether they were bringing incredible baked goods or jumping in with meal prep and cooking. Jesse is a professional who brings both evidence-based expertise and a warm, grounding presence. I will always treasure the time we had with them, and if we have more children, she will be the first person we invite back into our home.

I feel so lucky to have had Sheilena as my doula. From the very beginning, she was incredibly professional, responsive, and patient. During our initial conversations and prenatal Zoom sessions, she took the time to answer all of my questions — even the most random ones — with genuine care and respect. As a first-time mom, that meant so much to me. When my water broke in the middle of the night, Sheilena stayed in close contact with me over text the entire time. Even while she was on duty, she proactively looped in her backup doulas, who were all equally reliable and supportive. Together, they reassured me, helped me assess my situation, and guided me on when it was appropriate to rest at home and when to communicate with my medical team about pain management. Despite having attended multiple births and likely being exhausted, Sheilena showed up fully present for me before I received my epidural. She helped prepare a bath and spent hours providing hands-on support and massage to ease my pain — something I will never forget. During labor, she continued to advocate for me and communicate my needs clearly with the medical staff, especially when I was feeling nauseous from Pitocin. Her emotional support, reassurance, and attentiveness made such a difference in helping me feel safe and cared for. As a beautiful final touch, she shared so many precious photos from the birth — memories that I will cherish forever. Overall, I’m deeply grateful for her presence and support throughout my birth experience. I couldn’t have asked for a better doula.

Debbie and her son Mathew supported my family after the birth of our second child. To say their overnight support was life changing to my mental and physical health and healing would be an understatement. I wholeheartedly recommend Debbie and all of her support staff, they truly were amazing.

Hiring Doula Odessa was one of the best decisions we made. She helped me create a birth plan and shared evidence-based resources that made me feel informed and confident throughout pregnancy. As my due date approached, she was always available and supportive. When winter weather threatened her travel, she arranged a backup doula just in case, but thankfully it wasn’t needed—Odessa drove through difficult conditions to be there early that morning and stayed with us through labor and even after my C-section. She advocated for the birth experience I hoped for while also supporting my husband and me when doctors said an emergency C-section was necessary. Although my birth didn’t go as planned, I felt heard, cared for, and supported by Doula Odessa. She gave me confidence and strength during a difficult experience, and I’m so grateful to have had her by my side.

Very attentive and hands on, such a mellow & comforting tone! Listens to mommies needs & aims to please. Lovely experience

- Alanna Moné

As a first time mom, I'm so happy I had a doula and even more so that it was Meredith from Motherling. Her guidance helped me build my breastmilk supply very early on, which was really important to me. I highly recommend her!

- Karen Ndegwa

We were fortunate enough to get one of the best night nurses out there. Nancy was incredible. From the first interaction over the phone, we felt totally comfortable with her. The first night she arrived and immediately sparked conversation around baby, and our dogs! She was so gentle, thoughtful, and without a doubt a life saver to my husband and I. We cannot recommend this service enough to families that are in the trenches. Nancy was there to guide me through uncertainties and was a positive light I didn't realized I'd need. Thank you KC Newborn Care for helping my husband and I establish a routine and get the needed sleep to be our best.

My experience with Tracy was nothing short of exceptional. After my first birth (without a doula) I was extremely anxious about going through labor again. I knew I wanted another epidural-free labor and delivery, but I knew I was going to need support. Making the birth plan and talking through pain management helped me to lessen some of my anxieties while I was still pregnant. Tracy and I communicated closely as I approached labor, and she was readily available when things got going. Her presence during labor and delivery was so helpful. She was calming, encouraging, helped me stick to my birth plan, and suggested so many different things to help labor progress. Thanks to her I was able to reach my goal of not getting an epidural again. She prayed over me during the hardest moments and was just amazing through the whole thing. For future children I will absolutely work with Tracy and Rocket City Doulas again. I cannot recommend her enough!
