Working with Jessica as our doula was one of the best decisions we made during our pregnancy journey. From the very beginning, she was amazing—supportive, knowledgeable, and incredibly kind. Her initial consultation and two pre-birth meetings were packed with helpful information that made us feel so empowered and prepared going into labor. During the birth, Jessica was truly in tune with what I needed. She had this calm presence that grounded the whole room, and when we were in the thick of labor and forgot parts of our birth plan, she gently and confidently advocated for us. She also captured the most beautiful photos during the birth—images we’ll treasure forever. What amazed us even more is that her photography never took away from her doula support; she was fully present the entire time—I didn’t even realize she was taking pictures! A few days after our birth, she came over to our home to check in on us, making sure we were all doing well physically, mentally, and emotionally. She brought a huge, delicious jar of homemade bone broth with her, and it felt like the most thoughtful gift. We are beyond thankful for everything Jessica did for us. Her genuine care, compassion, and expertise made all the difference in our pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience.

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.

Melanie was a fantastic resource before, during, and after my delivery. Having a high risk pregnancy, I wanted all the support I could get, and Melanie had the knowledge, experience, and confidence to provide that.

We can't say enough wonderful things about Jaya! She was a wonderful addition to our birth team and made both pregnancy and labor a comfortable and safe experience. Throughout pregnancy, Jaya was a great communicator. She was always willing to answer our questions and checked in on us as we got closer to the end of our pregnancy. When we met in person to discuss our vision for labor and delivery, she shared an immense amount of information with us and helped us craft a birth plan. She was respectful of all of our wishes and helped us to feel informed and prepared. We were unexpectedly induced before the end our pregnancy. When we found this out, Jaya immediately called us to talk things through. She was kind and gentle and made sure we had the information we needed. When she joined us in the hospital during labor, she brought with her a balance of both calmness and positivity. As labor progressed and we had to make decisions about care, she again made sure we had the right knowledge to make informed decisions. She supported both me and my partner as we navigated the challenges of labor, and helped to bring both joy and serenity into the room. Overall, Jaya was incredibly supportive, kind, and knowledgeable. She made us feel safe, listened to, and empowered. We would highly recommend her for birth doula services, and are very grateful for her support and wisdom.

We loved our experience with Sierra! From the first meeting her demeanor was warm and friendly, we were able to meet at a local coffee place and just chat initially and she really made it a comfortable experience. From answering late night texts and phone calls about general pregnancy symptoms, to birthing positions, to helping me with breast feeding postpartum, her knowledge and expertise has been priceless. She was very present for my labor and helped reexplain things the doctors were saying when I couldn’t quite process during contractions. It was wonderful to have another support other than my husband during labor, as well as someone willing to take photos so my husband could just focus on me. If you’re on the fence about having a doula I couldn’t recommend it enough! If we were ever to have another child in the future we wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to Sierra again.

From the moment I decided to choose Olena, I have never regretted it. From the very beginning, Olena was incredibly attentive and supportive. Her two prenatal visits were incredibly helpful. She clearly explained what to expect during labor and helped me prepare for the upcoming challenges both mentally and physically. She demonstrated valuable pelvic floor exercises that gave me confidence and preparedness for my future labor. Throughout my entire labor, she was very responsive to my needs and ensured that my wishes and comfort were a priority. She worked closely and communicated effectively with the nurses and midwife, and her support was especially crucial when the question of a C-section arose. She confidently advocated for my preferences and helped my voice be heard. When the decision was finally made for a C-section, her support never wavered. Both my husband and I felt reassured by her steady presence in the operating room. One of the most meaningful moments for me came right after the birth of my son, when my husband needed to be with him and all the doctors were busy. I cannot forget the comfort of her hands on my face while I was getting stitches. It was exactly what I needed to feel safe and cared for. After the labor, she continued to provide me with comprehensive support. She taught me how to sit and breastfeed correctly, guided me through every step, and frequently checked in to make sure I was doing well. I truly valued her knowledge and genuine care, and she went above and beyond, sharing an incredibly helpful list of tips for newborn care, postpartum recovery, and breastfeeding. Having Olena as our doula has been incredibly beneficial for both me and my husband. Her experience and unwavering support truly helped us through every step of this life-changing moment, and if my husband and I decide to have a second child, I know who I will choose as my doula.

I would like to leave the warmest and most sincere review for my doula, Dana. My labor was very long and difficult — it lasted almost two days, and there were moments when I felt like I had no strength left. But thanks to Dana, I was able to go through everything calmly and without panic. From the very beginning, she surrounded me with genuine care. She didn’t just do her job — she was there like a close family member. I felt so safe, as if my mom was right next to me. She constantly checked on how I was feeling, helped me change positions, reminded me to drink water and breathe, and held my hand when I felt scared. I especially want to mention her massages. During contractions, she massaged my back, lower back, and legs, and it really helped relieve the pain. After her massages, the pain became much more manageable, and I could relax and regain my strength. It was an incredible support during such intense hours. But the most valuable thing was her emotional support. When I was crying, exhausted, or doubting myself, she told me I was strong, that my body knew what to do, and that I would get through it. She helped me believe in myself. In the hardest moments, she stayed calm and confident, and that gave me so much strength. She also helped me communicate with the medical staff, explained what was happening, and supported me in making decisions so I felt in control of the situation. Thanks to her, I never felt alone in the delivery room. Even after the birth, Dana continues to stay in touch, checking on me, caring about my well-being, and offering support. She helped me establish breastfeeding and is still helping me through challenges with nursing. I truly feel that she cares from her heart, not just as a professional but as a person. I am endlessly grateful to Dana for her professionalism, kindness, warmth, and love for what she does. I truly recommend her to all future moms. A doula is not just a helper — she becomes part of your birth journey and supports you like family. If I ever have to go through labor again, I would choose Dana without hesitation.

Bryana is an amazing doula. The doulas from her agency are also amazing. I have had the pleasure of having her all 3 of my births. She is so knowledgeable & answered all of my questions. She was attentive when i needed her & was amazing during my births! She is worth everything. I felt loved & cared for as well as my fiancé had the same sentiment. We enjoyed her company & her support. She was amazing in every part of the process. I can’t express enough how much i would hire her over and over again. This last birth she started doing birth photography & while she couldn’t go into the OR DUE TO my hospital not allowing her She got amazing photos before and after we went in and came out and I’m forever grateful for those photos and memories & i cry when i look at them. The experience is over all blissful. Her and her doulas are attentive and answer questions in a timely manner & if i had more babies i would pick her and her agency over and over again. The peace of mind they gave us was everything! I recommend her to everyone truly.

If I could give a rating higher than five stars, I would! Jocelyn was able to take over and advocate for me when I was unable to do it myself, and when my partner and I were unsure of what decisions to make before and during the delivery process. She was there for us from the early stages of labor to when our baby was in my arms for the first time. She is both knowledgeable and creative in her methods and had answers to all our questions. She far exceeded the expectations we had and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for doula services.

I cannot recommend Ashley enough! She is incredibly knowledgeable and professional. She is skilled in baby positioning, helping to ensure optimal alignment for a smoother labor process. Additionally she has a great understanding when it comes to tongue and lip ties and body work. Her expertise made a huge difference in my experience. Beyond her skills, she has a wonderful sense of humor that puts you at ease. Her passion for what she does is evident. Her ability to make complex topics understandable and approachable was so helpful. Ashley gave great guidance on how to help labor progress naturally and it was instrumental in achieving the birth experience I desired.

I would highly recommend Darby as a midwife! As a first time mom she was so informative and gave me all the knowledge I needed at every appointment. She aligned so well with my views of wanting a natural, calm, as God designed birth. My birth experience was long and intense as are many but she always remained calm and collected. Giving me assurance that my body would do as it was created to. She embodies knowledge, a sense of calm, and an excitement for new life. She stands by a women’s right to choose how her birth and baby will be brought into this world. Thank you Darby, I look back at my birth with awe of my body and what it can do through patience and perseverance. I wouldn’t change a thing.

Working with Jen was one of the best decisions I made for my birth. From the start, she brought a calm, confident, and grounding presence that felt so reassuring. She took the time to understand not just what my birth plan was, but why it mattered to me (which I think made all the difference when things didn’t go exactly as I originally hoped). Throughout pregnancy, she stayed in close contact and was always available when I felt worried or confused. Her guidance through the confusing days of pre/early labor and her arrival as soon as we needed more support made me feel really cared for. During labor, Jen really helped me cope with contractions and stay calm in between. She helped me get into a good flow and pulled many helpful things out of her toolbox (both metaphorically and literally) without disrupting my rhythm. Hospitals make me uneasy, but she helped me stay focused no matter what was going on around me. She kept me grounded when things got intense and I doubted myself. Jen interacted effortlessly with the medical team and brought up helpful questions I wouldn’t have known to ask (monitoring, IV placement, positioning especially during pushing). Between preparation during prenatal meetings and Jen’s encouragement and advocacy during my birth, I was able to stay confident and really be in the moment when my baby arrived. I can’t imagine going through pregnancy and birth without her.

Charity has helped me in so many ways throughout my pregnancy and my labor . I’ve had fears and doubts because of my mindset , I was terrified of the pain . I would have never imagine that my fifth child would be my natural home birth baby ! If it wasn’t for charity I don’t think I would have ever made it , her positive mindset and compassion pushed me to overcome the pain and bring my baby earth side . I can say no more how chaotic my labor was , it was the absolute best experience ever !!!

Karen was there from the night we brought our baby home. Excellent at her job and was so caring for both our daughter and myself.

Nori was the whole reason my birth experience went as smoothly as it did. Not only did she prepare me and my husband for what would likely occur, but she prepped us beforehand with research behind the decisions that are made during these moments. This was so unbelievably smart and helpful to discuss beforehand, so we didn’t have to make any hard decisions during labor. Nori also provided such a comfort, not only physically, but emotionally and mentally. She helped my husband learn ways to help me manage labor pains, paid attention to what sort of environment I preferred, and even took photos of us with our newborn. I can’t imagine not choosing Nori!
