Hiring Kiesha to be our doula was probably the single best decision we made throughout my entire…read morepregnancy. I was interested in a natural childbirth if possible and wanted to look into having a doula to assist with that. However, assistance with the actual labor process is just one aspect of what Kiesha does. She supported me and answered questions during pregnancy. She introduced me to some great resources for breastfeeding, baby basics, and CPR classes and referred me to a chiropractor for my last month of pregnancy (which I wish I had done all along). I do not think I would have been able to have a natural birth without her. She made the entire process so pleasant and really listened to what my husband and I wanted with zero pressure. Her postpartum care may be the thing I am most thankful for. Without her I wouldn't be breastfeeding my baby. I just can't say enough good things. If you are thinking of hiring a doula, do it, and call Kiesha!

This journey involved learning all about birthing centers, different types of midwives, different requirements/restrictions with each scenario, etc etc. We visited various birthing centers in Dallas and the surrounding areas but ultimately, and to our great satisfaction and appreciation... we were connected to Sweet Pea Midwifery and Olivia Delavega. We felt a huge sense of relief, because for my wife and I, having our baby in the comfort, energy, ambiance and convenience of our home checked all the boxes... Olivia, her team and her network were wonderful. Our experience with Olivia, Tabby and Iana (our Doula; within Olivia/Tabby's Network) was incredible. Well organized, cohesive, logical pregnancy plan coupled with a very informative and great emotional support structure from Iana. At no time did we feel pressured to do anything. Free will and free choice should be pervasive throughout our lives, but more and more it feels like some of those freedoms are slipping away. That wasn't the case with Sweet Pea Midwifery. We chose to have a 100% natural, zero pain intervention birth at home. Old School style... like they did for 1000's of years. At each step and with each choice we discussed the pros, the cons, the risks of each with Olivia and Tabby, asking countless questions, and in the end we chose the path that made the most sense for us and felt fully supported by the whole team. If we have another child, we will absolutely return to Sweet Pea Midwifery. I just can't say enough good things... this review would go on and on. Thank you so much Olivia!!!

Although my birth was incredibly fast, Olivia was such a help to me. Not necessarily because of what she did, but how she encouraged me and empowered me to birth my baby. I have had 3 babies previously (with different providers in a different state) and not once did I feel confident taking the reins during the actual pushing. I always waited for other providers to tell me it was okay to start pushing, but with Olivia, I was confident and comfortable enough to let me body do the work and rest in that. Even when she gave me advice, they were more helpful suggestions than commands that I felt in previous births. I so appreciated her aid and reassuring presence. Postpartum care was also phenomenal and our whole family felt very loved and cared for. Olivia and Tabby have become friends and if we were to have any more babies, I would love to be in their care again. Thank you, Sweet Pea Midwifery, for such a beautiful experience that I will treasure forever.

When my care team at Charlton started adding visit notes to my chart that were…read morenever discussed and not documenting important things that were discussed I started getting a bad feeling. Then when they flat out ignored my test results and shamed some of my personal decisions, I decided to find a care provider that my husband and I wouldn't have to fight with during labor. And boy did I. It was night and day. Ashley was on my team, she is insanely intelligent and knowledgeable, she actually made me feel relaxed about labor, she had lots of information about everything when I needed it but ultimately supported me making my own decisions. I felt like if something went wrong during labor, I could actually trust her to put my and my baby's health first before anything else. Baby girl delivered 100% naturally, 10 lbs 4.4 oz, 22 inches long, and a giant head (92nd percentile I believe). No stitches. Quick postpartum recovery. And when baby girl's shoulder got stuck, Ashley knew exactly how to move baby and I to get her out with no injury to anyone. I was able to walk out and go home 3.5 hours after delivery... talk about non-traumatic. I know that would have been a different story if I stayed at the hospital. I'll always be so thankful for Ashley and her sweet assistant. Her birthing center is so lovely too. The drive over there puts me in a good mood because of how serene it is. The center itself is so clean and private and comfortable. It felt like heaven compared to the discomfort I felt at the hospital. Bonus that for postpartum visits I don't have to bring my newborn around a ton of people at a hospital. Thank you Ashley!!!

She listens without judgment, advocates for your wishes, and truly honors the beauty of birth and motherhood. I will forever be grateful for her hands, her heart, and the way she helped me welcome my babies earthside. If you're looking for a midwife who will treat you like family and honor your birth experience with gentleness and strength, Ashley is the one.

From the beginning, everything was explained very thoroughly and my questions answered. The prenatal visits were very relaxed, not rushed. My options were explained to me, and I was always given the freedom to choose what I wanted to do. The Midwives at LLBC are all kind, patient, and knowledgeable. You get to meet with all three Midwives so that you are comfortable with whoever is on call when you go into labor. Krystal helped me so much along the way and referred me to a chiropractor, doula, and lactation consultant who were all professional and wonderful. The birthing center itself is nice and has a peaceful, relaxing environment. During my labor, Krystal was so patient and helpful. She explained everything that she was doing throughout the entire process, provided me with options, allowed me to make my own decisions, and answered my questions kindly. Due to failure to progress (I was not dilating past 3 cm despite multiple unsuccessful strategies to progress labor and change my baby's position.. he was sunny side up and stuck on my pelvic bone..) and prolonged rupture of membranes (it had been 20 hours since my water broke) Krystal recommended I transfer to higher level of care. Although the way I delivered was not how I planned, I was grateful to Krystal for recognizing the signs early enough to recommend the transfer before it became emergent. In the end I had a healthy baby boy and I'm grateful to the team at LLBC for their help! They have been wonderful postpartum as well!

We recently welcomed our third child and had the wonderful privilege of having Margie alongside our…read morepregnancy and birth journey for the second time. We had such an amazing experience at the beautiful and welcoming Frisco Birth Center for both births and formed a truly special relationship with Margie that will never be forgotten. Margie is an incredibly kind, gentle, supportive, knowledgeable, and professional midwife who genuinely cares about her clients in a way that is rare in any medical setting. Throughout pregnancy, she promptly answered any questions or concerns that arose, even making herself available between visits as needed, despite her busy schedule. Our older children came with me to prenatal appointments and they adore her as much as we do! She took the time to teach them and let them get involved in finding baby's heartbeat and position, which helped them get so excited to meet their new sibling. Leading up to the birth, we had some unusual findings in one of the blood samples that were run, and she put in extra time and effort to help us find the answers we needed to feel confident in our birth plan. There was also a risk of hemorrhage, but she wisely helped us weigh all of our options before, during, and after the birth so that we could have the safe and beautiful delivery we hoped for. Margie and her assistant midwife, Neta (who is also wonderful), accurately assessed the health of both mom and baby and responded quickly and professionally to any concerns that arose, including a very fast transition and delivery and maternal bleeding. We felt completely safe and empowered throughout the entire process because of Margie's clinical skill and compassionate demeanor. Birth can be unpredictable, and we felt well-informed and supported through every decision. After the birth, her standard of excellence continued, as she made multiple home visits to check on mom and baby and helped empower us make the decisions about his health we were uncertain. We are so grateful to know Margie and would highly recommend that others make the same choice if they are looking for a kind, gentle, trustworthy, skilled, and dedicated provider who truly cares.
