    When I was pregnant and prepping for labor, I wanted to make sure I had the best resources and advocates by my side. Being that this was my first pregnancy, I knew that I had to be ready for anything. Hiring MBB was the best decision because their classes gave my husband and I the foundation of knowledge on how to prep for labor. Their approach is to share information based on their wealth of knowledge so that we could make our own decisions based on what I was comfortable with. My goal was to give birth without drugs at the hospital and bond with the baby immediately. When my contractions started at home, I was able to call my doula team and they guided me though the contractions over the phone and virtually to try to get through most of the early labor at home. When I was ready to go to the hospital, Sophia was there by my side and helped me get through the labor without an epidural. It felt so empowering to get though the labor without drugs and was also helpful to have Sophia by my side to advocate for me when nurses kept checking on me. It was also so helpful to have Sophia take photos and videos of my baby's birth so we can really all be in the moment together. I had did end up having to go into an emergency OR to get my placenta removed manually after the birth and I can't thank Sophia enough for staying by my baby and husband's side. She helped them have skin to skin contact together and guided my husband while I was in the operating room. I would highly recommend having MBB by your side for your next pregnancy. They continue to be a resource for us as we are first time parents with our beautiful newborn and we are so grateful for their support.

After attending a childbirth preparation class at my hospital less than two months before my due date, I began to worry about how unprepared I was and became anxious when thinking about childbirth and the pain associated with it. After meeting with Teri and Susan, we immediately knew that having a doula with us was something we needed. My due date was approaching rapidly, but we were able to do a total of three childbirth education classes, one group class in Modesto and two in home classes. I felt more and more assured after each class. By the end of the third class my anxiety had been replaced by confidence. Teri came to our house the morning that I went into labor and assisted me through each contraction as I labored at home. Still by my side in the delivery room, she used acupressure and aromatherapy which helped tremendously even during the most intense contractions. Back at home with a brand new baby, the postpartum doula services with Jennifer and Susan were exceedingly helpful for us. I had also opted for placenta encapsulation and the postpartum care basket, both of which made my postpartum recovery and healing easier. Looking back, as we often do, we couldn't imagine our birth experience without the caring and experienced support of the doulas at Modesto Doula Group!

    My personal experience was 3-star - fine/better than neutral, but for me there were a few cons that…read moretook away from the pros... Other people might receive the same exact service but rate it 4 or 5 stars. I felt that the postpartum doula, Susan, could have been more open and supportive of my personal parenting style and desires, but it seemed like she thought there was one good way of parenting an 8-week old baby - the rigid schedule your baby for your convenience as soon as possible way, which isn't my philosophy but I know tons of people do want that. I also thought she needed to take more care and consideration regarding her baby wearing advice because although babies bodies are very flexible, there are safety concerns especially regarding their hips, neck, and nose that she did not properly address when telling me not to over think placing my baby in my ring sling.

Andrea was at our house two days after we got home from the hospital with our newborn, ready to ease us into a regular nursing routine and calm our fears. Regardless of time of day (before and after our baby was born), I have always felt comfortable sending Andrea a direct text message with questions. She has been extremely prompt in her responses and makes time to come out to our house to help with lactation issues within a day or two. Her services have also been very personalized to our needs. Apart from direct one-on-one attention during our sessions, I received regular post-appointment email recaps with helpful resources so I can avoid trying to Google or WebMD any of my concerns (because we all know how that can turn out...) :) Andrea has been a life-saver for us and I would highly recommend her lactation services, especially for first-time moms!

Andrea came to our home for an in person visit and was extremely helpful. Myself, my husband and mom were present for the visit. Andrea is really friendly and made everyone feel comfortable. She shares invaluable information and is just an all around great person. Andrea took notes during the visit and emailed us a plan for care to reference. Having Andrea as a resource makes me feel so much more confident about continuing to breastfeed and also having a piece of mind to reach out to her if we have any additional questions or concerns come up. Don't hesitate to reach out to Andrea if you are new to breastfeeding or having trouble.

Kara comes with a strong background in nutrition support and childbirth education. Not only is she a postpartum doula and a birth doula, she also teaches classes on nutrition for pregnancy and postpartum, which is so crucial in one's personal journey of pregnancy. In addition, Kara offers meal preparation to pregnant and postpartum families, in which she will customize meals on their behalf. That helps set them back on track for healthy eating, which was a huge plus for our family. Nearly a year later, we still use this awesome service with Kara, and really take advantage of what Kara has to offer with her meal prep! She is an awesome cook! This was the first baby we brought into the world, and Kara really did a fantastic job in making my postpartum transition go much better than I imagined. She was extremely supportive, nonjudgmental, and empathetic throughout my postpartum period, which made it go very smoothly! Kara also offered wonderful lavender oil scented massages as a lovely touch on top of all the support she gave us. Some of the best traits about Kara that we noticed is her excellent communication, knowledge, and listening skills throughout our entire time together. She had a great work ethic, always showed up to work a few minutes early, was a great multitasker, highly efficient on the job, and always addressed our needs while teaching us something new about our baby and guiding us along the way. Our baby was always very happy around her. Lastly, she kept up with all her vaccinations, including Covid, and respected our boundaries in regards to safety, which was particularly crucial for us around our newborn, in choosing a doula as a first time. We truly couldn't recommend her enough, and miss having her with us! Her positive attitude and warm presence made her feel like family! If we are to expand our family down the road, we will definitely have her back in a heartbeat.

My wife and I found her through an INTENSE doula search that went on for MONTHS! let me tell you, BEST DECISION EVER! You get what you pay for ( even though I believe hey prices are very fair). My L&D was 34 hours long! She helped me with pain management and coached my wife on how to help me with different pressure points and positions. She also helped us advocate for ourselves when I felt like the hospital wasn't listening to my requests. We got the First 40 days package and she was ON IT! Did not let me lift a finger, Helped me with EVERYTHING.... YES EVERYTHING. Even soothed my muscles with postnatal massage. She cooks amazing chicken, makes the best cookies and does our babies laundry. Our daughter kiki LOVES her! We only trust my mom & Kara to care for our baby girl. She always checks on us if we haven't seen her in a bit (7months post delivery here). I am definitely hiring her again for baby#2 because this was Best investment ever. As a new momma, I highly recommend Kara as a Doula!
