    Dakota is amazing. She is the true reason we were able to have the natural child birth with no…read moreepidural in the hospital that I was hoping for. Without her guidance we would have been lost! She helped my partner and I every step of the way through labor. If we have a second child, we will hire her right away!

    Dakota was my doula for the birth of my second baby. As as second time mom, I was on the fence…read moreabout hiring a doula since I had already experienced labor.  I am so happy that I chose to have Dakota at my birth! Dakota set a gentle, mellow mood throughout the birth. She used essential oils and music to keep the hospital room as homey and relaxing as possible. She gave gentle coaching as needed, helping me to move through positions and stay calm. She helped my partner to take care of himself, too, which meant that he could be there for me when I needed him.  Dakota was invaluable in helping us meet our goal of a peaceful birth with no medical interventions. Dakota is wonderful when things are going well, but she is also incredible when things go wrong. Towards the end of our birth, my baby's heart rate dropped dramatically.  The OB realized that my placenta was detaching and I needed to push my baby out FAST. Dakota quickly switched modes from gentle to focused coaching -- she helped me to breathe and push efficiently but calmly, and my sweet baby came out safely two contractions later.  Without Dakota's help, I don't know if we would have had as good of an outcome.   Dakota helped us to have a hospital birth that felt like a home birth.  She provided amazing support before, during, and after.  I feel very lucky to have had her help and support.  I can't imagine a better doula.

    We took the Childbirth Education class with BABI and it was so much more than we expected. Dakota…read moreis a wealth of knowledge and the class provided so much intel from experience, information we could not have gotten through books alone (I've read a few in prep for childbirth and I learned things that were just completely obsolete in them). Dakota also has knowledge of what to expect at St Charles Birthing Center, so it will support you whether you're home birthing or birthing at the hospital. The class gave us both - birthing mom + partner - practical things to do before, during, and after childbirth, and the class was worth every penny. I loved the mix of Hanai/in person and Zoom, and being able to meet other couples in a similar stage. I'd absolutely recommend any class with BABI to those going through their first pregnancy, and even subsequent births. We feel empowered knowing we have the tools and knowledge to make smart decisions for us and the baby.

    I cannot stress how incredible helpful Bend BABI has been in educating us on labor, delivery,…read morebreastfeeding, newborn care and pretty much everything else we had questions on as we enter this brand new chapter in life! Dakota is AMAZING and extremely knowledgeable. She put our minds at ease over all the uncertainties that come with going through labor for the first time and being a first-time parent. If you are having your first child, I HIGHLY recommend this incredible course! 6 classes for a very fair price. Every single topic that you could think of was covered. I feel so much more excited and prepared going into labor and parenthood. Thank you SO much Dakota!!!

    Lori was an incredible doula. Being our first birth and with no family in the area, we were looking…read morefor some support and guidance through this time. We chose Lori because she seemed pragmatic and had a lot of relevant life experience. As a mother and former school teacher, Lori brings a very grounded yet enthusiastic energy to her work. She is friendly, knowledgeable, and up to date about everything from home births to medical interventions. She is personally familiar with the various medical facilities in the Portland area, and knows how to navigate their systems. As labor progressed at the hospital, Lori provided us with techniques to remain comfortable and to move the labor along naturally. She helped us understand the medical procedures and their implications as they arose. Lori was very realistic, and did not minimize the challenges of birth. She listened to our goals and wishes, and compassionately provided her professional opinion and insight. Her warm, can-do attitude helped us remain confident and empowered throughout the journey. We highly recommend Lori's services! -- Dan & Kathryn

    Having Lori with is on this journey was incredible. As first time parents it was important to us…read morethat we had someone by our side who could help us navigate pregnancy, birth and postpartum. I immediately felt at ease with Lori - she offered an non-judgmental but educated approach. When our birth plans hit a snag (breech baby) she not only helped us pivot and prepare for a whole new set of unknowns but she sat with us in the grief that came along with accepting this new journey. I was so grateful to have Lori with us for our ECV and ultimately our c-section. Having her in the OR helped calm both mine and my husbands nerves. We are so grateful for her support throughout the entire process and look forward to working with her again when we decide to try for our second!

    We are beyond grateful for Doula Love's matching service and for pairing us with our incredible…read moredoula, Nomarie. We were a little on the fence about hiring a doula since this was our second baby, but we really wanted that holistic, nurturing care that a hospital alone can't always provide -- and Nomarie was exactly what we'd hoped for. I'm not what you'd call a "country granola" type of mom -- I went into this birth fully planning on (and very much wanting!) all the pain relief and medical support. But there's still such an important place for a doula in that environment. Nomarie helped bring warmth, connection, and a truly holistic touch to what could have otherwise felt like a very clinical experience. From the very first meeting, she made us feel comfortable, supported, and truly heard. She took the time to understand our hopes for the birth and was such a calming, confident presence every step of the way. When labor began, Nomarie was our angel -- grounding us through every contraction, guiding my partner on how to support me, and helping us navigate all the twists and turns that came our way. Even when things got complicated after our baby was born, she never left our side. Her steady reassurance and calm energy made us feel safe and less scared during a really overwhelming moment. Looking back, I honestly can't imagine our birth experience without her. She helped us feel empowered and cared for in one of the most intense and beautiful moments of our lives. I would recommend Doula Love and Nomarie a thousand times over -- they gave us the support we didn't even know we needed.

    I just want to say, Elaine, with Heartstrings Doula service, IS THE ONE YOU WANT BY YOUR SIDE! She…read moremade me feel like family, INSTANTLY! We discussed very intimate things prior to my birth, and she never once judged me, or made me feel uncomfortable. She always spoke with kindness, but also gave her opinion or guidance with honesty and integrity. When the time came for her to be with me at the hospital, she was there, eager to serve me and my needs in the OR room. She captured the most BEAUTIFUL photos of my cesarean birth, and somehow still managed to keep me so lovingly elevated, she didn't take away any moment from me, she actually GAVE me proof in photos and videos, of what the OR staff did with my son, while I was getting sewn up. She stayed with me for a few hours after, to make sure I was comfortable to be there alone, and brought the sweetest gifts to me. When it came time for her service in-home, she walked in like she had lived there for months, and got right to work in areas I had been slacking. Laundry, dishes, food prep, which - speaking of, she brought the tastiest quiche for me! Oh and coffee! She cared for my newborn as if he was her own, and she cared for me too, as if I were her own! Having had no family here to come to the hospital, she filled that void I had, and then some. She is now forever a part of our family, and I'll never forget the service she gave me and my family, when we needed her - and even when we didn't. She was always quick to reply to me, and honestly, I wish I could keep her forever! She is the doula you need, and the doula you'll regret not having!
