Colleen is a truly a genius when it comes to babies, lactation, family dynamics, mental health, and anything else that could possibly come up post-baby. We love that we can text her and get instant answers - Google has nothing on her! She was also an amazing health advocate for me because of her background as an RN (even joining in doc apts) as I had complex postpartum complications and our family will always be so grateful for her guidance and positivity. We also hired Colleen for her sleep specialist program/sleep training and her custom schedule, coaching, and tips made it so easy. Our son has been sleeping through the night and taking 4 naps a day since 3.5 months old. (Now he's a pretty chill baby, but Colleen is magic.) Working with her is worth every penny, whether it's for a first baby or navigating multiples. I'm writing a long review because I'm so passionate about Colleen's work and I hope others hire her to make their postpartum journeys a million times better than you can possibly imagine. Thank you, Colleen!!!!

Kelsey is not just a doula, she's a walking, talking pregnancy, birth, and postpartum search…read moreengine. Her knowledge is vast, and her resources are endless. She provided us with invaluable support before, during, and after my birth. In short, Kelsey is an exceptional doula-don't hesitate to hire her! Before meeting Kelsey, I didn't know a lot about doulas; I just knew I wanted all the expert support I could get going through my first pregnancy and labor. My understanding of Doula meant home birth with a midwife, but I planned to give birth at TMC with my OB.  I first contacted Kelsey through her website (after thoroughly stalking her Instagram hygge.birth.services) when I was about three months pregnant; we scheduled a video call meeting to get to know her. After our initial call, Kelsey left her email and phone open for any follow-up questions we might have while deciding whether to become her client. Kelsey's service offerings are comprehensive, and we opted for her Complete Birth and Postpartum Support Package. While I was Kelsey's primary client, my husband also benefitted greatly from her support. We had a group text throughout the pregnancy to address any questions or concerns, ensuring we were both well-informed and prepared. Kelsey's support was instrumental in keeping us on the same page, especially when I went into labor and was unable to communicate as effectively.  Even if you're not interested in a doula for your entire pregnancy journey, I highly recommend taking Kelsey's Childbirth Education Course (CBE). She offers private sessions in your home. She is offering a reduced rate as she is in training, which is a fantastic deal. I wish we had started her CBE course when we were family planning; there is so much information that would've been really helpful in the early days of our pregnancy. Even starting when we did, around 6 months, there was still an abundance of information we took away from it. Taking her course would also be a great way to get to know Kelsey if you're not sure you need a Doula yet. On our second night home with our baby girl, she wouldn't stop crying, and my husband and I were at our wit's end. The "5 S's" weren't working. I sent Kelsey a frantic text at 11 p.m., and to my surprise, she quickly responded with encouragement and guidance. I'm sure that isn't always possible, but that's just one example of how Kelsey goes above and beyond to support her clients. Kelsey is also an amazing Mama. With a toddler and infant, she's in the thick of parenthood, which is just an added bonus. She is also very organized, which was helpful for my very disorganized personality. Although our formal package with Kelsey has ended, we will stay in touch. I plan to hire her for additional postpartum support visits. She's kind, caring, compassionate, and a great advocate. I'm very grateful she was a part of our birth journey.

I wish that I had Kyleen as a doula. I used her services strictly for placenta encapsulation. Even…read morebefore birth she was always available to answer my millions of questions. She is very knowledgeable and didn't hesitate to answer questions that fell out of the realm of the services I paid for. She gave detailed instruction about how to prepare and store everything. She was always professional and kind. I loved how she offered two ways of preparing the pills along with a tonic as well. She was prompt to pick up the placenta at the birth center. Kyleen went above and beyond to get me the finished placenta pills in half the time she quoted. She went way out of her way to deliver them to my house, which is in the middle of no where. When she dropped the placenta pills off she stayed to ensure that everything was good with the baby, birth, breastfeeding, siblings, comfort, mood and pain level. Which, again, was way above the service I paid for.  The actual product was amazing. I recommend Kyleen to everyone in Tucson and placenta encapsulation to absolutely everyone. They were my mood enhancing, hormone stabilizing, super milk production, anti- baby acne and energy pills. After I expressed sadness that they were almost gone Kyleen even gave me instructions on how I could make a tonic out of what was left.   Did I mention that she made the umbilical cord into a perfect heart. Which at first I thought I wouldn't want, but I absolutely love it. If I were to have another child Kyleen would, without a doubt, be by my side.

I've attended to some of their classes through my agency; specifically a class called "babies's first tastes",which discusses the introduction of food to infants through baby lead weaning.

They offer classes that are free to the public for new moms and their babies, including a breast-feeding support class on Fridays. Look at their calendar to confirm availability. They offer other classes too to help support moms.

My experience with Milk & Honey was truly amazing. Nina was such a huge part of my daughter's…read morejourney, and I honestly can't thank her enough for everything she did for us. When my daughter was a baby, she was very small, and so many doctors were convinced that she needed an NG tube. Nina worked with her and helped us avoid that. She also helped my daughter work through a food aversion that had developed after so many doctors were adding and taking things away from her diet. Nina helped us get my daughter back to eating solids and, most importantly to me, she helped us get back to breastfeeding after my daughter had been taken off the breast and put on formula because of her weight. But beyond all of that, Nina was my emotional support during a really difficult time. I was constantly worried and overwhelmed with everything the doctors were telling me, and she reassured me that my daughter was okay, thriving, and that I was doing a good job as her mom. Looking back now, my daughter is healthy, happy, and thriving, and I will forever be grateful to Nina for the support and care she gave both of us. She truly made such a difference in our lives. I couldn't recommend Milk & Honey and Nina enough!

After a long, hard early labor our birth plan changed while at the hospital. Our doulas were there to help us discuss our options and give us space and guidance to make the best choices for us and our baby. It wasn't the birth we initially planned for, but it was the most empowered and in control birth I've had.

Dr. Darche is our MVP/hero of our first successful and recent pregnancy. Our baby boy was breech…read moreand she was able to successfully turn him at 36 weeks via ECV (basically turning him by pushing him from the outside). She's small but mighty and was a champ in turning the baby with confidence. She knew exactly what she was doing and because of her I was able to have a vaginal birth that we wanted. It didn't hurt as much as I thought it would. She also delivered our son - my water broke 60 hours before delivery and after 3.5 hours of pushing I had given up until Dr. Darche walked in and coached me to push. If she didn't walk in, I would've given up bc I knew she wasn't going to let me get away without pushing the baby out. She gave me the confidence and strength I needed to push the baby out and did a great job. She's skilled, caring and gets the job done. She's an efficient communicator and has high EQ. One thing I regret is not listening to her advice when I got admitted to the hospital to do the pitocin right away instead of the misoprostol. Then maybe I would've had a less painful and long birth (I had an infection and baby ended up in the NICU for antibiotics for 48 hours as a preventative measure). I had 5 rounds of miso before I dilated so it was a long process. Anyway, I would recommend her to everyone and if you have a breech baby or delivering at 1100 Van Ness, then you better pray that Dr. Darche is on duty! She's a big advocate on vaginal birth - when the others were suggesting c-sections bc our baby was breech and measuring too big (he was estimated to be over 9-10 pounds and ended up being only 8 pounds 5 ounces at full term - 3 days before his due date), Dr. Darche turned him around and coached me through delivery. Also, I liked her response to my question what if the baby turned breech again before delivery - she said she would turn him around again! My husband got a kick out of that statement and I like her confidence. CPMC is lucky to have Dr. Darche.
