I took Lisa's hypnobirthing class before the birth of my second baby. I was hesitant to take the…read moreclass because of a traumatic birth with my first baby which was supposed to be natural, but ended up with so many medical interventions, and was skeptical of being able to do a natural birth given my previous experience. However, Lisa was very kind and understanding of my situation, explaining that my first experience was filled with special circumstances and assured me that none of that would happen again. She educated me and my husband with all our options for our hospital birth and giving me a new hope and courage that I would be able to give birth naturally. This past week I had a scare that I had a rupture of membranes and did not go into labor (the same thing that started my first traumatic birth experience) and I reached out to her through text. She gave me lots of advice, reminded me to stay calm, and suggested some natural induction methods which worked. We also benefited from using the acupressure pain relieving techniques we learned from Lisa during labor. I started getting strong contractions at midnight, got to the hospital at 2:30am, and had my baby girl in my arms by 3:37am. She was a whopping 9lb3oz and I was able to push her out with no epidural and no tearing!! It was an amazing experience and I'm so happy to have had Lisa's help and advice throughout the way. Thank you so much Lisa!

Lisa was nothing short of amazing for my second birth.

I didn't plan for a doula for my first but I knew for my second I wanted the experience and to have that extra support. She provided many tips and checked on me consistently as I began to get near my due time. The labor started rather quickly and she intuitively picked up on cues that I relayed to her over the phone and made it quickly to my home! She was gentle, encouraging, and took beautiful photos of my labor ! I had such a great birth experience and I know including her in my sacred day made it so. She is well versed and everything you are looking for in a doula. She is a beautiful person and great at what she does. I highly recommend!

We took her Childbirth and Beyond course alongside having her be our doula for the birth. As first-time parents, Nicole's Childbirth and Beyond course gave us a lot of knowledge to prepare for the birth and caring for our baby. As a doula, Nicole is so calm and supportive. Leading up to the birth, she was informative and gave us lots of insight of our options. We felt informed about all the decisions going into the birth. She was also responsive about all the questions we had, even for late night texts! Going into the birth, we were afraid that we were dilated enough and the hospital would turn us away. Thankfully, she knew better than us and joined us for our birth right on time! Nicole was so calm and reassuring during the birth. Her solid presence was so appreciated during our birth. She also took photos of the birth, which we are so grateful for to be able to look back on for years to come. We HIGHLY recommend Nicole to anyone!!!

During my pregnancy, I had the opportunity to meet Alicia, and I immediately felt a familiar, grounding ease from her presence. Throughout my labor and birth, Alicia was everything I needed--empathetic and tender, yet knowledgeable, sturdy, and clear. She went above and beyond to support me through the natural highs and inevitable lows that come with the birthing process. Her steady, attentive care made me feel safe, seen, and empowered during such an intimate and transformative time. Alicia's detailed and thoughtful approach continued into my postpartum home visits, where her attention to both me and my baby's well-being was truly unmatched. She held space for me with such care and compassion, offering exactly what I needed during those early weeks of recovery and adjustment. I feel incredibly fortunate to have received care from three incredible midwives - Johanna - Julie and Alicia- throughout my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period. Alicia holds a special place in our hearts for providing exactly the kind of support, care, and connection that made our experience unforgettable. I wholeheartedly recommend her for any conceiving, pregnancy, birthing, lactation or well person need.

I'd never had a home birth before though this wasn't my first baby. They took safety measures that made me feel comfortable during such a stressful time period being pregnant during a pandemic.

They even allowed me to do appointments by zoom and drive to the parking lot of their office to do vitals in my car! This allowed me to bring the kiddos while keeping contact and exposure to a minimum. They were always available if any concerns took place or I had questions. This not being my first baby, he came very quickly and because they had prepared us so well, I still was able to follow my birth plan. I felt completely supported with everything I wanted and enjoyed visiting with them every appointment.

Amber provided doula services for me during my recent birth.

She also taught us some useful diapering and swaddling techniques. In the weeks leading up to my due date, she coached me via text through prodromal labor and helped me understand what was happening. On the day of the birth, she was my anchor and helped me stay calm through my pain and have a successful natural birth. She always knew just what to say, how to touch me, and what would help. I strongly recommend Amber for your birthing journey.

I had a c-section and she made it a point to communicate my alternate birth plan to my team. Without that, we would have never been able to remember to save our placenta.

To say that investing in a doula was a good idea would be the understatement of a lifetime. My wife…read moreand I heard about this magical concept as if it were a fairytale idea out of our reach, a luxury item in no way meant for us. That was until we met Kathryn and One Moon Doula. They showed us how we could achieve the dream goals we had for those first precious weeks while also honoring our modest budget. Not knowing what to expect, as this was our first child, we did understand that having someone with us would change everything. We were quickly linked with a few doula interviews and fell in love with one of them. Our schedules aligned and boy did it ever change our lives. I can't imagine not having our doula there for those critical nights of transitioning into parenthood, while making space for healing and recovery. We both slept more than we ever thought possible, while our son was cared for better than we could have imagined, AND we learned so much to build a foundation of comfort and confidence moving forward. No family member or friend would have been able to step in the same way. If you have nothing else on your registry other than a fund for this...do just that. It will change your whole early parenting experience for the better. Thank you to One Moon Doula and their network of Angels.

My wife and her also put a birth plan together and worked side by side during her labor to follow it as much as possible. During my wife's labor, Julie was very nurturing and continuously ensured my wife remained calm and relaxed as possible. The fact that made this experience for me was the reassurance Julie provided me immediately following the birth of or child, during some minor complications my wife had, that everything was going to be ok.
