My husband and I found out we were expecting in Feb 2023. I tend to be a very anxious person when…read moreit comes to my healthcare, so I knew I would need additional support through pregnancy. Hiring a doula was a great option for us! Katie M was the doula my husband and I worked with, and she is the absolute BEST. Katie and I would chat via phone after my OB appointments and go over the details of the appointment as well as anything I was nervous about. I would tell Katie little things that made me anxious, and she would talk through those worries with me. Katie would also send text messages in between our phones calls checking in and making sure I was feeling at ease. The night my contractions began, I texted Katie at 2 am, and she responded right away. She walked me through what to look for and what to expect. Once I was in my L&D room, Katie was by my side! Katie's presence in the delivery room was so calming and reassuring. My husband would ask her questions or advice which made him feel so much better about the whole process. My biggest concern was feeling scared, but Katie constantly reassured me on every step. I was pleasantly surprised that pregnancy, labor, and delivery went better than I anticipated. Having a doula was a game changer for my mental health, and it was the best decision for myself and my husband.

Odile delivered my daughter in 2014 and was a postpartum doula for my son (which is how we met)…read more Odile is just awesome. She takes great pride in getting to know the mom, knows so much about birth, newborns and delivery and was very supportive during the birth. My doc, Dr. Pardo, at Sibley memorial hospital in DC even complimented her for being helpful during the delivery. Odile was a certified medical sage-femme in France. It is a hard diploma to get. Odile helps relax, prepare and go through the adventure of giving birth better. I would be glad to take any call or give more details about why I give her 5 stars. Just message me on yelp!

Had such an incredible experience with Julie of Embrace Births. She encapsulated my placenta a…read morecouple days after I gave birth which was such a lifesaver from fatigue and hormonal dips. As soon as I felt overwhelmed or anxious, these pills would work within minutes of taking them! However the most amazing experience with Julie was her incredibly calming energy when we needed her most as well as a ton of helpful tips on pediatricians, how to put on a moby wrap and all the other crazy questions you don't know you'll have until you have them with a newborn! She even gave me an incredibly healing craniosacral session which made me feel more relaxed and aligned and a sense of "everything is going to be ok!" couldn't recommend her more!!

My husband and I reached out to a few doula agencies on May 17th looking of day time and overnight…read morepostpartum support for our family, as we had a new baby on May 15th and quickly realized we needed additional support . Three of the four agencies reached back out same day letting us know they didn't have availability, which we appreciated as it gave us the opportunity to continue our search. King of Prussia Doulas scheduled a consult with us for 2pm on May 22nd which was waited for as we needed support as quickly as possible. We received multiple reminder emails from King of Prussia Doulas in regard to our scheduled appointment throughout the week, including one 30 minutes prior to our appointment. We eagerly waited to connect, as we desperately needed assistance. At 1:51 pm on May 22nd (9 minutes prior to our consult). Amanda from King of Prussia Doulas texted saying she needed to reschedule to the following day, then later the evening sent an email canceling all together. This lack of professionalism cost us days of finding the care and support we needed. If you are looking for support and a very vulnerable time do not trust King of Prussia Doulas to follow through.

Lacey and KOP doulas were recommended to me by my OB, and I am very grateful that I was connected…read morewith them. I had good feelings from the moment I spoke with Lacey and Jackie. Our first meeting was very educational and helped me navigate what interventions might be offered/suggested, how they could affect labor, and whether or not I would want to avoid or consider them. I went into labor 2.5 weeks early with and my water broke at 4:00 am when my husband was out of town. This is where Lacey and Jackie really came through. They were in touch with me even in the early hours of the morning and offered support until I was ready for in person support. Without going into too much detail, I had a VERY fast labor and I have told many people that I don't think I would have mentally or emotionally gotten through it without Lacey. I tell anyone who will listen to me that they should hire KOP Doulas because they offer support that your OB, Nurse or significant other are unable to offer.

This…read morewas my 4th child and I felt prepared for what was to come, however, I felt I was missing that support that I craved from another woman. I didn't have family near going through my pregnancy and labor and after meeting Tina, I knew that I had support system and fighter in my corner. From the prenatal visits and lessons in my home to the labor and delivery, Tina made me feel so supported physically and mentally. I know she put her comfort on the back burner to endure my marathon labor that ended with my first girl after three wonderful boys! Having Tina as part of my pregnancy and labor was priceless. Thank you, Tina!

Actually Jessica responded and I just saw this. Please read her comments carefully…read more 1) why in the world would I tell you I am in an Airbnb . This is a house I own and was looking for prior to Covid. Can show you prove if that. The other houses I did not win and closed bids. Etc. if you had asked I can provide you with information on where I lived and that it has never been an Airbnb...it's a small 1960s home nobody would pay to live in lol ....but it's got a great location and eventually it will be renovated .... 2) I was very clear that just because I have a NY plate or license does not mean I have been to NY and I too don't want to get sick. 3) I actually can provide you a copy of my deed should you asked but I don't travel with it. 4) however listen to her lack of trust. That only shows she sees the world as US vs THEM. That's what the person running the business is telling you. Not trusting me because of NY plates but I have a deed and can prove residency and that nobody else has rented this place . Look at all the details she asked me to try to prove me wrong and deny me service. Downgrading to 1. She has a communication problem. Lacks the patience to be the person running a business but maybe it's great doing the work. Choose your battles.

We…read moreare all told what pregnancy and birth "should be", but what most don't know is that we are in control of how the birth of our babies can go. Hiring Jess was the best decision we made. She educated us and empowered us in more ways than one. I learned so much from her and she helped me during the hard moments. When we hired her we knew what a doula was at least we thought we did. She is more than a doula she turns into your biggest cheerleader and advocate. She is by your side thru everything. Oh, and the perk of the prenatal massages are amazing! You feel rejuvenated and refreshed after those. If you are on the fence of hiring a doula.. do yourself a favor and just do it! You will not regret it!
