Amber provided doula services for me during my recent birth. Prior to the birth, she visited my…read morehusband and I and trained us on pain relief techniques that turned out to be absolutely vital in having an unmedicated hospital delivery. 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 met Sheri after purchasing one of her birthing baskets at New Life Ultrasound.. I immediately…read morefell in love with her and all of her knowledge.. a few weeks later I was unexpectedly diagnosed with gestational hypertension.. I felt immediate stress, fear and anxiety come over me - as doctors were throwing around the word "induction". After reading and hearing horror stories about "inductions" I felt my birth plan to have another all natural birth went out the window. After talking to my husband.. we decided to hire Sherrie.. for her support and help to attempt my all natural birth.. the moment we hired Sherie she was available for all questions and concerns. She literally was always a call or text away.. and if she wasn't available at that exact moment.. I knew she was "catching a baby" and one day soon she'd catch mine! :) At 37 weeks I was scheduled to be induced.. I went in as nervous wreck, unsure of how things would play out. Sherie met us at the hospital the night before induction and made sure me and my husband were nice and comfortable, the next morning.. she was back again.. at my bed side - doing anything and everything to keep me comfortable.. and calm.. Long story short.. the Cervidil didn't work as planned and I was discharged to go home.. with in a half hour I was in labor .. Sherie stayed with us as we labored outside the hospital for 2 hours until I was further along in labor enough to be admitted again. Sherie was a rock for me and my husband during those 6 (long) yet quick hours of labor. Sherie brought out something in me that I never knew I had... I was able to find peace.. strength and endurance with her by my side.. She was not able to guide just me but also my husband as we brought our daughter into the world. Needless to say- I was able to have an all natural birth once again.. and I know I wouldn't have been able to do it with out her with us! I am for grateful. Once my daughter was born- Sherie's job didn't end there! She stayed with us a few hours after her birth,visited us in the hospital the next day and also at home a week or two later. She gifted us with lactation cookies (that were delicious ) and photos of our birth! She will always hold a special place in our hearts.. Thanks Sherie!

Tiffany Alblinger is a Godsend! I used to think doulas were like a midwife's assistant and were not…read morereally necessary. However, after some encouragement from a friend, my husband and I decided to meet with Tiffany. I knew immediately that she was someone I wanted at my labor. Tiffany has amazing energy and a very calm spirit. Having a doula meant everything to us as Tiffany prepared us before the event and stayed with us as long as I needed her. One of the things I loved about having a doula is she gave my husband incredible confidence and support. We both felt prepared and excited before having our son. Do to some health issues, I ended up giving birth in the hospital. Tiffany was a rock for both my husband and myself. If it wasn't for her, I would have gone to the hospital many times before I needed to. She answered all of my calls and texts and was right there with me when I was ready to go to the hospital. I was already 8 cm when we arrived! I could go on forever, but I will end this by saying every pregnant woman should have the individual support of a doula. Meet with one and see, like I did, if it is an option for you.

My experience with Katharine was extremely knowledgeable and significant for my labor process…read more I did not plan on getting a doula and was hesitant too, I regularly was afraid I would be annoyed with someone else in my personal space during this time, I expressed that to Katharine and she was as hands off or on as I wanted. Me and my husband regularly asked her a LOT of questions and she always met us with knowledge, or shared studies of all ends of the spectrum to help us make an informed decision. At one point we asked for affirmations with verses and if she had any, and within a week we had a full packet of them she put together for us! Katharine was SO amazing to putting together our birth plan, from phrasing things correctly and editing it to ensure the hospital knew exactly what we wanted, and once at the hospital she was very direct with the staff on what we were striving for. We weren't alone in all of our goals and desires. During labor she was no nonsense, got RIGHT down to whatever needed to be done. From shaking me to setting the mood during labor to holding my hand and grabbing my granola bars. During the day of laboring she walked with us and guided us in every step and I'm extremely grateful for her and her assistance in bringing my son into the world! Katharine helped me prepare and be able to have a non medicated and quick labor, and truly we feel like she was an invaluable part of the process for our family!

Having Nicole by our side was not only the best decision we made to help ensure we made it through to the end unmedicated, but it also helped both of us stay at ease while navigating different scenarios that played out as my labor progressed. I can't speak enough about having an amazing birth team around during pregnancy, labor and delivery and I will always get to look back on the birth of my daughter as a really beautiful day and event and we have Nicole to thank as a huge part of that.
