Wendy’s qualifications are truly just the cherry on top of the kindness, calm, and non-judgmental support she provides. I chose her as my doula for my second child after being diagnosed with gestational diabetes and feeling like I needed more guidance than I was receiving. What stood out most was how Wendy helped me truly understand my body and my options. While my doctors were preparing me for a possible C-section, Wendy took the time to explain what was happening physically and how I could support my body if I wanted to try for a natural birth. After following her simple suggestion of bouncing on a birth ball for a few minutes each day, I began dilating around 35 weeks, so I stopped bouncing. By 38 weeks, I was already about 4 cm dilated. At 39 weeks, my water was able to be broken and labor began. The process was much smoother than I anticipated because I felt informed, confident, and supported—especially compared to the limited support I felt from my medical team. After my baby was born, Wendy continued to be incredibly supportive with lactation. With her help, I was able to breastfeed successfully throughout my baby’s first year, something I didn’t get to experience the way I wanted with my first. I’m incredibly grateful for her knowledge, care, and steady presence during such an important chapter of my life.

I hired Wendy to be my birth doula. as we got to know each other during the prenatal visits, I decided to also hire her for postpartum help. Wendy's approach to caring for me was so genuine, calm and patient. She is very knowledgeable. She always made sure that my needs were met. She went with me to the pediatrician and my OB appointment. She went grocery shopping for me; she took care of my baby while I napped and showered.
