Kind Words From Families

“Finding Heather was an answered prayer and crucial in making my home birth experience one I would never want to forget. She traveled over an hour one way for every prenatal and postpartum visit. On the night I went into labor, she came to my house at midnight and slept on my couch to be there in case I needed anything, which I did. The whole next day, she helped me work through my labor with massage, pressure points, hip squeezes, making sure I ate and drank, and helping me with positions to progress my labor. She even took the time to keep my family, friends, and midwives updated in an ongoing group chat all along the way so that I didn’t have to worry about responding to texts and calls. Her skill and experience were so evident in the more than 24 hours she spent with me during my labor and birth. She went above and beyond to get to know me so that she could help make my vision come to life, and I wouldn’t have wanted to do it without her!”

“Having Heather as my doula was truly a gift. I am a single parent and had no other support besides Heather. From our first meeting she made me feel supported, heard, and deeply cared for. She went above and beyond in every way, from answering countless questions during pregnancy to offering continuous emotional and physical support during labor. Her calm reassuring presence helped create an atmosphere of peace and strength. Her knowledge empowered me to make informed decisions at every stage. She was not only a doula, but a true advocate for my birth experience. I am forever grateful for her dedication and for the difference she made during one of the most important moments of my life. I absolutely plan to hire her for any future pregnancies.”

“Heather was the best doula we could have asked for. We had her as our birth and postpartum doula and well as postpartum meal prep (the food was amazing). As first time parents and busy professionals, Heather provided calmness and continuity throughout my pregnancy and beyond. She provided us with with knowledge and skills to help grow our confidence as new parents. I cannot recommend Heather enough.”

“Jennifer supported our family beginning when our son was born, starting at the hospital and continuing until he was three months old. As brand-new parents, we were exhausted, overwhelmed, and figuring everything out in real time. Her presence made an enormous difference. From the beginning, Jennifer brought not only skilled overnight newborn care, but also a calm, loving, and reassuring presence to our home. What made Jennifer stand out was how seasoned she was. She brought a deep well of experience, both as a mother and as a postpartum doula. She supported us with feeding, newborn behavior, sleep, and the many small but important challenges that come with caring for a new baby. She also cared for us in thoughtful ways, including cooking wonderful meals and snacks for us. Every night, she shared pearls of wisdom from her extensive experience and seemed to know exactly what we needed to hear. What we learned from her was incredibly helpful, and her timing in offering insight was always impeccable. Whether it was her understanding of our son's behavior or her advice on how to care for and nurture him, she consistently gave us the right knowledge at the right time. She was wonderful with our son, and she also helped us grow more confident and independent as new parents. We truly feel she helped give us our foundation as parents. We remain deeply grateful for her care, guidance, and support during such an important season of our lives. We strongly recommend her to any family looking for an experienced, nurturing, trustworthy postpartum doula.”

“I had Jennifer for my birth and as a postpartum doula, it's hard to put into words how comfortable and safe she made me feel for the entire process. Our hospital tried to direct us in a different delivery path and Jen was the voice when I didn't feel like I had one. She helped me stick to one of our plans and I delivered a beautiful boy my way. For postpartum care she helped with breastfeeding support, answering tons of questions, making sure I was staying hydrated and getting plenty of rest. We will definitely be using Jennifer for our next little one.”
