So when we were looking for a midwife we went to a few and weren't pleased UNTIL we found Charisma Midwifery! As soon as we met Ja'Nelle I felt so calm and at peace maybe it was her energy or the vibes of the place but I knew she was who we wanted, she took such great care of me and my baby and come labor and delivery I loved that she let me and my husband do all the work I felt so in control of everything and she made me feel so comfortable, loved and took in care of through the whole process! Come baby number 2 we found out were expecting and I did not hesitate to say I wanted Ja'Nelle again she treats us like family welcomes us like we've known each other forever and I can't picture having my babies anywhere or with anyone else!!

I originally found Linda on Yelp and was looking to get a lactation consultant asap as I had just…read moregotten home from the hospital and my newborn was having trouble latching. Linda was able to come out asap and she very much helped me! We realized he did better on a nipple shield and have been using one the last two weeks. He's been getting stronger and able to breast feed no problem. During our first session, she was able to confirm that my insurance would cover a postpartum Doula. So I get 11 sessions through Kaiser, which has been wonderful! So Linda comes to my house once or twice a week to help me in my recovery and breast-feeding journey. It has been really nice to have the support and the help. She's really been great! We will be working on getting him off the nipple sheilds, hopefully in the next few weeks. But having the help at home has really been great as well as the lactation support. I would definitely recommend calling her and seeing if you were insurance will cover visits from her. Thanks Linda for all the help!

Linda recognized that my son had a tongue and lip tie when everyone else told me that he did not have one. We saw a pediatrician that she recommended and had it revised at 5 days old. After his revision I was able to nurse without pain for the first time ever! I needed a lot of support to establish breastfeeding and she went above and beyond to answer all my questions and help me. She is truly a kind and caring person. I can't recommend her enough to anyone that is struggling with nursing or has questions. We love Linda and are forever thankful for her.

Managing my breast milk supply was such a challenge as a new mom. I was getting conflicting…read moreinformation and was suffering from mastitis. Additionally I was challenged with more misinformation about breastfeeding my baby. Thanks to the help of yelpers, I found Christina! She made an appointment with me as soon as possible and brought her scale. My baby was very fussy and Christina helped me to understand that sometimes it's not soothing techniques and maybe it's an underlying issue that's going on that was causing the fussiness. Furthermore she helped me understand how lactation works and has helped me gained more control over my milk supply. I got a lot of my sanity back once I was able to have a more balanced lifestyle while being able to feed my baby. Christina is so sweet. She really cares about moms and is there to talk to in case we just need someone to talk to. She is always open and willing to have a direct conversation without the fluff. I really appreciate finding her and being able to work with her.

Nancy is an excellent doula who is extremely knowledgeable about all things pregnancy, birth and…read morepostpartum. As a first time mom I had no idea what to expect during the birth process and I was very nervous. Nancy helped us prepare for birth and guided us through the labor experience. It was so helpful having such a kind, non-judgmental doula on call anytime I needed advice or support. She's extremely responsive and felt like a second mom looking out for me the whole time. She had lots of useful resources and books that she leant me to help me prepare. I was committed to doing the Hypno babies program and she knew exactly how to support me in that throughout my birthing time. During birth Nancy and my partner took turns giving me hip compressions for hours to help alleviate the pains from contractions. When it came time to make game time medical decisions during birth she was a knowledgeable expert to consult with. She has been through so many births and understands the process and how things can play out. Thanks to Nancy's guidance I was able to have a natural unmedicated birth and she helped start me on a successful breastfeeding journey. Nancy was instrumental in helping us have a calm and healthy birth. Both my partner and I would give her a 10/10!

I truly felt cared for every step of the way. She felt like family. If you are looking for someone who is compassionate, professional, and deeply dedicated to her clients, Nancy is the perfect choice. As new parents, we look back at the experience & She made such a difference for me and my husband. We are blessed and grateful to have her guide us through this beautiful journey

She greeted us promptly and immediately I felt at ease. I shared concerning had with clogged ducts with my son and some fears that Hanna my baby wasn't getting enough milk. She validated all of my feelings and offered valuable information that claimed my concerns. I appreciate how she gave practical information and strategies without being strict. She made me feel like I could succeed at this! My husband was invited to the appointment which also helped and he was blown away by how helpful an in-office appointment was as well. It was hands down the best thing I could have done for me and my family. We talked and brainstormed for a great amount of time, I never felt rushed. Then she measured me for flanges and I was much smaller than I had been using- who would have thought! That was huge because with my son I was using the wrong size flange the entire time I Pumped with him. Then we did a weighed feed and talked about next steps. And I leaned Hanna took in 2 oz from the one side which was so helpful! Then Tiffany followed up with a care plan and was available for messaging the following two weeks. Thank you so much!

I was going through some PPD as well and I was just so overwhelmed being a first time mom. Tiffany was holistic in her approach in taking care of the concerns I came in with and providing the best care. She not only helped me with my latching issues, she recommended me great PP support, and I even went to her starting solid food at the table course (10/10 recommend!!!). I truly cannot say more wonderful things. If you or parent you know need support with breastfeeding, solids, etc - I highly recommend Tiff and her team. I know for a fact whenever our family chooses to grow, Tiff will be my first call to get me ready again.

PLEASE AVOID KATHLEEN. READ THE OTHER RECENT NEGATIVE REVIEWS. She somehow got our last review…read moreremoved. I assume she has been doing this with a lot of reviewers. Long story, short: Kathleen should not be taking care of babies at night. I'm rewriting this review because she is putting babies in danger and this could cause harm to baby. She showed up to our house after eye surgery and could barely see and walk around our house at night time. I have camera proof that she fell asleep with our baby in her arms as well. After that, she refused to give back our deposit and took all our money. She claimed it didn't apply because the deposit was applied to the substitute. What a scam of a lady. Putting babies in danger and taking new parents money. Please do not use Kathleen for night nanny/doula services.

I am writing this review after giving it months to process- we hired Kathleen after an incredibly…read morestressful and horrible situation where our infant nearly died in the middle of the night and we were not sure we would ever sleep again due to the trauma of that. Kathleen was very responsive when I called initially and continued to check on us when we were in the hospital. I thought that was a good sign - but we couldn't have been more disappointed with the outcome and fired her after two nights. The first night she showed up she made fun of the way I swaddled sarcastically (yes, I'm sorry I don't know how to swaddle I just got my baby home from the hospital where nurses were doing it BECAUSE HE ALMOST DIED) and isn't it your job to teach me how to do those things? We should have sent her home then and there after that tone deaf sarcasm. We were desperate though. Even given the situation, Kathleen was far more concerned about how she would sleep comfortably and even had me looking for her glasses for her in the middle of the night because she couldn't find them. Wtf??? I've just been through the worst experience of my life and now I am caretaking you???? The second morning after she left the baby's diaper was falling off, the place was a mess including her crackers under the couch, even though we didn't have anyone else lined up we had to let her go. I was going to refrain on writing a review as she did send me an apology note and mentioned she was too old for the night jobs anymore and would be transitioning into education only (yes, 100%, should not be in charge of nighttime infant care) but for some reason I decided to look her up on here and I see she is or course taking those jobs still. I feel the need to note my experience and forewarn anyone else considering hiring her that she has the bedside manner of a screeching Tasmanian devil and to be frank my baby would probably be dead if we had hired her before the event. I'm shaking writing this because it is just that upsetting . Oh , and after finding out I was a hairdresser, on night two she was ASKING ME WHEN I COULD DO HER HAIR . ????????????????????????? Excuse me I just had major surgery, my baby almost died, I'm clearly not well and taking maternity leave as long as I can, and you are really asking me that? I also had a musical healing mantra playing in the room for my baby and she said "she wanted to blow it up". I think I've painted the picture for you- I would recommend running far away from this one. The lack of professionalism is enough, but she's also quite possibly a smoker-she smelled like febreze over cigarettes- which is a HUGE Nono around babies. This is all extremely dangerous and I really don't want anyone else to have the experience that we did.
