We had a great experience working with Tori as our doula! My wife also had a positive experience with her as a prenatal massage therapist. Tori has a great touch with people and helped us navigate many difficult decisions and situations during my wife’s first pregnancy. Her knowledge and calm demeanor helped us to navigate complications and feel better during this uncertain time. She was also flexible and supportive as our needs changed during the pregnancy. We would definitely recommend Tori to anyone who is looking for a doula.

We are so grateful to have had Tori with us during the birth of our baby girl. As first-time parents without any family support nearby, having her by our side made all the difference. She was calm, supportive, and incredibly reassuring throughout the entire process. During labor, she helped me stay focused and confident, guiding me with comfort measures and gentle encouragement. She also supported my husband, making sure he felt involved and confident in how to help me. Her presence created a safe, warm, and positive environment, which truly helped me achieve a smooth vaginal birth. We couldn’t have asked for a better doula. Tori was not only knowledgeable but also deeply compassionate. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced, supportive, and kind birth companion.

My husband and I were incredibly fortunate to work with Tori before, during, and after the birth of our first child, and we’re not sure how we could have navigated without them. During our prenatal sessions, they taught us so much about what to expect from labor and delivery as well as the postpartum rollercoaster, allowing us to feel so much more confident about embarking on our birthing and parenthood journeys. While we were in the hospital, Tori was a steady, supportive cheerleader and they helped maintain focus when a shift change brought in new nurses and a new OB late in my pushing stage. They are an incredibly kind and empathetic person as well as a tremendously knowledgeable resource. We can’t recommend Tori enough!

We are first-time parents with no family / support nearby, and Tori has been an absolute godsend the past few weeks! She helped us with overnights starting shortly after birth for about 7 weeks. Her warmth, gentleness, and expertise with newborns immediately put us at ease and helped me (the birthing partner) get much-needed rest. She provided support with breastfeeding as well as bottle feeding later on, gently working with our refluxy and sleepy eater to get enough down each night. She also provided prompt and detailed updates after the night was over. Besides that, she’s just a lovely person—cannot say enough good things about Tori!

I had a long and challenging labor, and Tori was there to help every step of the way. She was a soothing and encouraging presence with so many helpful techniques, plus an awesome collaborator with the hospital staff. My husband and I are so grateful for how she guided us through the birth of our first child, from the preparations to the labor and delivery. We are all doing well, and much credit for that goes to Tori!

Tori was amazing to work with. We hired them as a doula about a month prior to giving birth. We only wish we had found Tori sooner! Their pre-birth visits put as at ease, despite my wife having a high-risk pregnancy and upcoming labor. Even knowing we were scheduled for a planned induction due to health concerns, Tori walked us through all options pre-birth. We didn't realize how valuable it would be to think about our desires. Tori helped us set aside what we knew was happening (the induction) and focus on what we really wanted out of the birth experience. We went in for our induction on 12/23 and Tori was right there to get us settled. They offered to stay with us throughout the entire process, or return when active labor began. We opted to have Tori come back the next day, but they continually checked in on us throughout the induction which was very helpful. When Tori returned, they did an excellent job of helping with breathing, positioning, and offering support to my wife and myself as the birth support partner. Following delivery, Tori continued to check on us and brought over a (delicious!) home cooked meal. Having this support after delivery was really meaningful to us, especially as we don't have close family in town. Thank you Tori, and Whole Body Birth for wonderful support services! Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for doula support.
