She spent more than three hours with my best friend and me, thoughtfully reading both of our charts and guiding us through a beautiful sound bath experience. Casey has a gift for making you feel seen, understood, and connected to yourself on a deeper level. We left feeling inspired, energized, and excited to continue exploring this work with her. I can't recommend her enough and am already looking forward to booking another session.

She was knowledgeable and confident, but always respected our own ideas and goals for our daughter. She stays up the entire night, so we could rest easy knowing our baby was in great hands. Our daughter is now a wonderful sleeper, and we owe a lot of that to Tamra! Plus, she bakes amazing cookies, and our dog absolutely loved her. She quickly became like family to us. We highly recommend Tamra to anyone who needs overnight newborn care.

She is knowledgeable, kind, fun and really helped to ease a lot of the stress I had with being a ftm. She helped my BF journey and was there to provide incredible support and guidance. Having her was truly a gift for my son but also for my mental health. I throughly enjoyed having her with us during the night feedings and she deeply understands how to connect to you during this very interesting chapter of life. , Tamra made everything feel as if I was on a team rather being alone in the night trying to look up suggestions on anything and everything related to a newborn. Tamra is/was a game changer for my whole family. We cannot thank you enough and will forever be grateful!

My husband and I were intrigued by the idea of working with a doula early in my pregnancy, but looking back, we had NO idea just how meaningful Abbie's expertise and care would be. With each session, she educated us, encouraged us, gave us incredibly useful tools and resources, and most importantly, empowered us as a couple. We weren't able to follow our birth plan as we had initially hoped due to unexpected circumstances, but Abbie helped us navigate every change with confidence. We felt informed, supported, and at peace amidst all the unanticipated redirection. She played such a meaningful role in making the birth of our son an incredibly positive and empowering experience, and we truly can't imagine having done it without her.

Breastfeeding was a disaster, from my low milk supply, baby being tongue tied, mastitis, the wrong size flanges for the breast pump that Kaiser gave me. Lisa helped me with homeopathic remedies, support, and information about medications that others have found useful (she does not prescribe or give specific medication dosing advice for prescribed medications). I don't know that I will be able to breastfeed, but it isn't for lack of trying, and Lisa made me feel better, that I have done everything humanly possible and if I can't it's not because I didn't give it my all. I highly recommend using her service. She is responsive, kind, reassuring, and just a lovely person who wants you and your baby to be healthy and strong. She loves babies and respects mamas. What could be better?

If you are wanting to hire a doula or have extra support, definitely hire Lisa. When my husband…read moreand I found out we were pregnant, I knew I wanted to have a doula assist with the birth. I also knew that I wanted to have a natural birth and that doulas could be a great assistance in reaching this goal. I spent a lot of time emailing doulas, a lot of them. Lisa was only one of a couple I heard back from. She responded promptly and was willing to work around our busy/late night schedule to set up an interview. Once we interviewed, I knew that I wanted to hire her. My husband was more apprehensive and had difficulty spending the money when he felt he would be helpful and not need a doula. However, he knew how much it meant to me and went with it. Throughout the pregnancy, we received so much useful information from Lisa. Any questions I had, she was always available to answer them. Towards the end of my pregnancy I had high blood pressure and my doctor wanted to induce me because of concerns regarding my blood pressure. I knew that it would be very difficult to have a natural birth with being induced but felt confident that given the support, I would be able to do it. I ended up having three different types of inducement measures, cervidil, a balloon, and pitocin. My labor was incredibly difficult, with a recommendation of an epidural discussed twice and a c-section discussed once. Lisa saved me from having to have any of this done. She suggested two specific positions to utilize while having contractions that are never done in hospitals. My doctor worked with Lisa and was willing to have Lisa try them with me. These positions saved me from having a c-section and made my goal of having a natural birth possible. She was not only available and there for me during my pregnancy and labor & delivery but afterwards as well. I have asked so many questions regarding breastfeeding and other things and she has always been available for me. She responds promptly to me and is constantly checking in on me (my baby was born 8 days ago). I cannot say enough positive things about Lisa. Hire her as your doula, it will be the best decision you can make. Following the delivery, my somewhat skeptical husband prior to labor and delivery said that it was worth all of the money we spent. He said hiring Lisa was one of the best decisions we made during this process. That, to me, says it all. Hire Lisa.

Having Nina's support during the first few weeks with a newborn was a huge help…read more Nina helped establish healthy sleep habits for our baby. From the very beginning, she gently taught us how to read our baby's cues so when we did not have nighttime support anymore we felt confident and empowered to care for our baby, rather than feeling dependent on the support (which was something I was nervous about!). Inviting someone into your home during such a personal season is a big deal, but Nina has a calm and loving presence, and we always felt completely comfortable having her around. She became part of the family...even our dog looked forward to her knock on the door! My employer covered postpartum doula services, but even if they hadn't, it would be worth every penny.

Nina was truly such a gift to our family during a very important and challenging time. After our…read moredaughter was born, Nina stayed with us for about 12 weeks, and we honestly don't know how we would have gotten through those first few months without her. She was incredibly kind, patient, flexible, and accommodating from day one. She was amazing with our daughter and equally wonderful with our son. Bringing home a second baby and figuring out how to balance the needs of two children was a huge adjustment for our family, and Nina made the transition feel so much more manageable. She consistently went above and beyond to make sure everyone in our family was comfortable and cared for. We always felt completely comfortable trusting her with our children, and she brought such a calm, reassuring presence into our home. Beyond everything she did for the kids, Nina was an incredible source of support for us as parents. Those early weeks and months can be overwhelming, and having someone as caring, dependable, and thoughtful as Nina made such a difference. We are so grateful for the time she spent with our family and for everything she did for us. Nina became a very special part of our lives, and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family. She is truly exceptional!

When my husband and I were preparing for our first baby to be born, I knew I wanted to hire a doula…read morebecause I wanted to give birth naturally with no epidural or any other pain medications. We did our research and chose three doula services that we were interested in. After having multiple phone and in person meetings with all three, I knew Deanna was the right one for me. Meeting Deanna for the first time is like meeting a friend you haven't seen in a long time. She definitely gives you a sense of comfort. She's also very knowledgable and answered all of my husband's and I's questions we had about my pregnancy and prepared us for what to expect during labor and delivery. When that day finally came (about 2.5 weeks earlier than expected) Deanna and my husband were on it. Both of them worked so hard to make me feel comfortable. Deanna definitely helped my husband be more hands on during my labor which took over 24 hours. As much as I wanted to give birth vaginally, I eventually had to get a c-section after pushing for 6 hours and trying all the possible birthing positions Deanna recommended. I was also prepared going in to the operating room as Deanna also educated us about what would happen if I was to get a c-section. Deanna was by my side the whole time up until I had the c-section. When the nurses where not available Deanna was moving the bed to get me to a comfortable position and also helping me get to the bathroom. So if you're looking for a knowledgable doula with lots of experience and is hands on, I would definitely recommend Deanna.

Our birthing doula was called to another birth hours before we were induced, and she ensured us that Maya would be able to assist us, and knew about our preferences and birth plan. Maya showed up right as active labor was ramping up, and she was just what we needed to have our dream birth. We would highly recommend Maya! She worked well with the L&D nurse, helped me labor in different positions, moved the bed to facilitate movement during labor, supported my partner, and helped me during my contractions with counter pressure and other pain coping techniques. I might have been squeezing her hands really hard! We are so thankful to her for her support and guidance during birth and willingness to trust us in the most vulnerable of human experiences. She will forever be a part of our family, and a "fairy godmother" to my son!

Heather is a wonderful birth doula. She is very education and science based focused but also very…read moresupportive of emotions, mom's well being, and listening to your gut instincts. We had 3 prep sessions with my spouse to cover the labor process, possible birth interventions, and postpartum. This time really helped both of us feel prepared and informed of our options. It gave me a chance to also ask about some of the interventions and choices at the hospital and pick Heather's brain about how she has seen them work out for other mothers. I was induced at 38 weeks and Heather was available to me at the hospital the day before my birth and during my delivery the following day. Anytime she wasn't there in person my spouse was giving updates over text and we were working through next steps. She helped me and my partner work through labor pain, each next step in the induction, and helped me push the baby out. If I give birth again, I 100% want Heather again to help support me. She is not only amazing for birth parents but also so helpful and informative for support people. You really feel like you have a village in such a physically difficult and emotional time.

The three sessions prior to labor/delivery were extremely helpful in getting us prepared mentally, physically and emotionally. While we took also online classes with Kaiser, nothing compares to a 1:1 class where you can really ask questions and get personalized recommendations. Our baby was breech and we ended up needing an ECV and, ultimately, a scheduled C-section. Heather was so supportive through it all and made me feel much better about having a birth that didn't look like the one I initially pictured. Her presence was also so helpful at the hospital. And, reimbursement via Kaiser was a breeze! Thank you so much, Heather!
