A magical moment I will treasure for…read moreyears to come I just barely 3 months postpartum with twins, decided to step out of my comfort zone & celebrate 3 months being blessed to breastfeed my boys, with a milk bath session with the wonderful Martha! It was such a pleasure! In such a vulnerable time when you may not feel entirely like yourself; or how the world can be so loud with "bounce back" culture .... She made me see myself as strong, powerful, resilient! & also soft, beautiful & my children's safest place!!!! If you're ever looking for a doula, birth photographer, or like me a special breastfeeding session she is amazing! It was comfortable, she brought some beautiful energy to my home & in seeing these reminded me how truly remarkable women are ANYWAYS, TAKE ALL THE PICTURES, I promise you will treasure them one day. Forever thankful to people like Martha who use their beautiful work to remind us how cool moms are! 5 stars is not enough, you cannot go wrong with Martha

The nest offers the cutest mommy and me (infants) yoga class. If you are super into yoga, just be…read moreaware this class is not super zen but it is a great yoga class to start moving after labor and socialize with your baby. The class is located inside a dance studio with a different name. Only down fall is the instructor didn't start till everyone arrived (which was about 20/25 mins after), very nice for people running late but not so nice for early birds who tried hard to make it on time.

Love love love all the classes offered here! I took…read moreprenatal yoga and learned so much. Gained so much awareness I actually used what Ifat taught to utilize the positions to make my labor successful. Now that I'm a mom I do mommy & me yoga with Ifat and Zumbini with Laura. It's the perfect combo schedule for me. Baby girl gets to dance and play... then mommy gets to unwind and stretch while gently helping my body heal from pregnancy/birth. I'm so elated I found this place. It's brought me so much peace and acceptance. Even when I was sick and could only sit on the floor during the class The teachers are so perceptive and supportive. They really cater to you physically and emotionally.

Chelsea is absolutely amazing. She is just such a sweet, caring person and you can tell she truly…read morecares about you and your baby throughout the entire process. Chelsea went above and beyond in preparing us for the delivery date, staying with us after delivery to help us breastfeed and a follow-up visit with us to help us get acclimated and help us with additional breastfeeding support. Honestly, when my wife told me she wanted to hire a doula, I thought it was unnecessary, but I wanted her to be happy and have as good of a pregnancy / birth experience as possible. Looking back, I am so happy we made this decision to hire Chelsea. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience. She helped us come up with questions and plans we never would have thought of. And, when we had questions, she was always available to answer. I am so happy we made the decision to hire Chelsea for the birth of our first baby. Also, so great to have Chelsea there to take pictures on delivery day when my wife and I are focused on our new baby and not even thinking about taking pictures. I wouldnt have done anything differently. Chelsea is such an amazing doula and person and we are blessed to have met her and had her be a part of our journey.

Words cannot express the amount of love and gratitude we have for Chelsea. To say she goes above &…read morebeyond is an understatement! She truly gives her heart to this work and is a living angel put on this earth for all the mamas! She never once left us feeling alone or unprepared through every step of this journey... pregnancy, labor & delivery, and postpartum. Any and all the questions, she's there to answer. She also never hesitated to give the hands on support that was needed, even throughout a 40 hr labor. She didn't just help empower me as mom, she also fully supported dad in this experience too! Most importantly, I didn't just meet and hire a doula - I made a lifelong friend.

Dawna is an amazing friend, doula, and person! She was there for us every step of the way while I…read morewas pregnant, during our labor, and even after. Her knowledge, love, and passion for what she does shines through. She really helps you explore and understand what all your options are and supports you with whatever decision you make. She's a wealth of knowledge!!!!! My husband relied on her expertise and support as well; she's there for everyone, because we are all a team. I can't say enough wonderful things about her and what she means to our family. Our little guy loves being with her even to this day! I HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who is looking for a doula, you will love her!!!

Dawn was at the top of my list of doulas to meet. Her bio had everything I was looking for. I…read morereally enjoyed her energy and personality upon meeting her. For me, that's a deal breaker. I enjoyed being near her. My husband and I just knew she was the one! Take the time to meet her and if she is the one, you may just know it! She spoke very openly to us; very tell-it-how-it-is. She is exactly the strong woman energy I felt I needed near me during birth. I was new to the area and had little resources. She was able to point me in directions I never knew to ask. This is invaluable. She knows the area very well and has the experience as a doula that made me feel comfortable. We were planning a HBAC (home birth after cesarean). My 2 1/2 year old daughter would be there also. It was very important that we found the right person to be support for my husband and daughter also. She was the one. My daughter grew very fond of her leading up to birth. She looked forward to our visits. I could be at ease with my daughter's position during birth with her support. Dawna helped us make our plan possible. Leading up to birth, Dawna was a constant resource. I looked forward to our visits and felt like she was my personal cheerleader. I really needed that! She knew I could do it all along. This was my second birth, and unlike my first one, I felt like everything flowed with all my plans and wishes respected. Everyone there was valuable. Dawna just did exactly what needed to be done while I was in "labor land". She gave me the encouragement I needed and took a load off my husbands shoulders. She brought me drinks with a straw without being asked. She was like an amazing birth angel. Her energy is very calm, strong/confident, go with the flow, and on point! I'm obviously very happy and would hire her again. Right after birth, she made sure I was comfortable and fed. My 2 year old couldn't wait to see her again. We all looked forward to her postpartum visit. There's a reason why she is so experienced and adored by her clients.

MaryLou is the absolute best. I had disappointing prenatal massages at spas before I was referred…read moreto her, and was so relieved when my husband set me up for one of her massages. Besides having a proper table that allowed me to finally lay face down, she does such amazing work, really took care of me and cared about my pregnancies and wellness. I don't know how I would have made it through my twins' pregnancy without her. I'm postpartum for the 3rd time and still use her services as much as I can. The cupping she does really does wonders for my tight and achy spots and the hot stones are my favorite.

I have a fused spine from Surgery due to Scoliosis. So the first thing my Doctor told me is that I…read morecan't get the Epidural and I would have to do C-section with general anesthesia. I didn't want to have another surgery so I decided to look for other ways so that I would be prepared to give birth Naturally and with no medication. I found Eyla on google and both my husband and I decided to take the Bradley Method classes which she teaches. That was the best decision we could've made. We feel so prepared and empowered after taking the classes. I'm sure that we are more than prepared to now give birth naturally and with no medication. THANK YOU SO MUCH EYLA.

My husband and I took Eyla's Bradley weekend workshop. This is information that every woman (and…read moreher partner) NEED to know for their pregnancy and labor. She even discusses postpartum and lactation matters and provides crucial resources in the community that every new AND experienced mother needs. I sincerely wish I would have found her for my first pregnancy (I found her for my second pregnancy). The medical system and your traditional OB provider will never even have the time to explore such topics with you and it's not information that can just be picked up off the internet. I'm so happy that Eyla and her team, it was such a necessary investment that will empower you and leave you feeling supported in every way no matter what kind of birth experience you choose. I really wish we would have been able to take the 8 week course but my husband and I were not able to this time.

I was having a scheduled c-section so I didn't think I needed a doula. But with two kids at home…read moreand no family nearby, my obgyn told me it would be smart to have a professional on standby to support me at the hospital. A midwife is a bit overkill for a c-section so I decided on a doula. I asked around and ended up hiring Carolina to assist me as a postpartum doula. Best. Decision. Ever. I went into labor way ahead of schedule. Like months ahead of schedule. It was a completely chaotic and terrifying morning. My husband drove me to the hospital but was stuck outside of the operating room with our two older kids. I was in a panic but suddenly remembered "Duh! You hired a doula!!!" and I called her as I was being wheeled into emergency surgery. Carolina got to the hospital lightning fast and was my patient advocate during surgery recovery until my husband and children were allowed to visit. Obviously the nurses at the hospital are there to assist you, but it made a huge difference having someone who was by my side 100% of the time. Women feel incredibly vulnerable after giving birth, especially a traumatic birth. It's important that you feel protected and supported. And it is even more important that you are able to rest while someone coordinates your care. I was able to SLEEP while she handled getting me a hospital breast pump, scheduling a visit from the lactation consultant, and making sure the staff stayed on top of my pain management. She even brought me a ponytail holder and some essential oils. She made a very difficult day soooooooo much easier. I'm all done having babies but if you plan on reproducing anytime soon, you definitely want this chick at your bedside before, during, and after your birth.

She cares about your whole self, and applies her extensive knowledge, as as well as consulting with other professionals, to your unique needs. I have used her as a doula twice as well as used her for induction massages. Without Carolina I would have never been able to birth my first born vaginally. She was more knowledgeable with what worked for my body than the hospital staff was. My husband now tells every pregnant couple that we know to hire a doula!! I cannot say enough about how vital her presence has been at both of my births. She holds your hands, while also gently motivating you to get the job done! Love her!! Edit: I forgot to mention that my labors were days long, and she was there for the long haul!! Never leaving my side when I needed her.
