Our son had significant tension which we saw a difference immediately after his first session. Dr. Giselle gives easy to follow directions for home carryover exercises and we felt our son made significant progress in a few weeks. You can see Dr. Giselle really specializes in tongue ties as her slight adjustments to his treatments translated to tension reduction and improved tongue movement. We are so grateful for her expertise and commitment to this field. You and your baby will be in great hands with her!

I reached out to Kristi in the very early stages of my pregnancy and she broke down how she teaches her classes. Each class was more interesting than the previous one. (It also helps when your partner is super involved- it makes it more exciting!) During the birthing process, Kristi prepared us so well for my 19 hour labor and 10 minutes (yes 10 minutes!) of pushing- for a first time mom. The way she advocated for myself and my husband in the hospital made us feel very grateful to have her there with us. She made me feel like anything was possible. I feel that everyone should have a doula- there were things I "thought" I knew but Kristi informed us of so much more- how to rest in between contractions and breathe through them. I am honored to have had Kristi there as our doula. We had a very special birthing team and we owe our healthy and safe delivery of our baby girl to her!

I literally and metaphorically slept better with the HFA team there. As first-time parents -- it's so comforting to have expertise and support at every moment as you're navigating life as a parent for the first time. When you have no idea what's going on, you're healing and tired and hormonal, your doula is a rock. As second-time parents -- LIFE-SAVING to have someone there to let me sleep as much as possible so that I could be semi-human for my toddler in the morning, and gave my husband and I some much-needed normalcy in the evenings. Everyone I've ever interacted with at HFA (Devon, Sara, Kate, Tiffany, Latoya, Norah, Erika ... the list goes on) was courteous, professional, kind, hyper-responsive and I never had any doubts that we all were in great hands. Give yourself the gift of sleep and peace of mind. I did and would do it again in a heartbeat.

I was referred to Dr. Tadros for my son's plagiocephaly. He was born prematurely with torticollis…read moreand it was affecting the shape of his head and his ability to latch/feed from a bottle, amongst other issues. We started working with Dr Tadros when he was about 7 weeks old... by 10 weeks my son was able to latch and was receiving most of his at home meals directly from me vs the bottle. When he was using the bottle, he was much more efficient and we weren't losing most of my pumped milk to his shirt! We've now been working together for 3 months and his head shape has drastically improved and he's stronger than ever -- he just loves tummy time! She also has given us tons of advice for at-home activities, toys and other supports. I'm actually not sure what we'd do at home with our kids, if it wasn't for her guidance. We're now working with Dr Tadros to help our daughter (they're twins) with some muscle tightness and feeding issues. At 16 weeks my daughter finally learned to latch, her clicking while on the bottle has stopped, and like her brother, she's much more efficient while feeding from the bottle. I can't recommend Dr Tadros enough. She has been a Godsend to our family!

He became more hands on and enjoyed her teaching methods. Very well experienced and Great with communication flexibility understanding reliability attentiveness and reassurance. Teaches and explains everything you need to know that will help you every step of the way of the pregnancy/delivery/postpartum/lactation stages. As a first time mom, The birthing experience with her was very empowering. At the start of surges (39 weeks 3 days) we used the techniques we learned and managed to stay home until The surges were close to 5-7 minutes apart. by the time I arrived at the hospital I was already 6cm!! Those labor surges were something else but with all of the non-pharm techniques she provided and coached us, with a huge those of encouragement, I was able to birth out a beautiful 8.2 pounder baby girl (Emmanuella ) naturally!!! She stayed until I was all good and baby was good. We reviewed everything including breastfeeding over the postpartum visit via zoom, which was very helpful physically, mentally and emotionally. For all expecting moms, If You desire a seasoned, enthusiastic, passionate doula, that you can connect with, choose Shadisha!! Seeing her as family , We are deeply grateful for how God used her to meet us in our times of need. Emmanuella is 9 weeks now and doing exceedingly great. Looking forward to her doula services again with baby #2

Mom and All Consulting has wonderful services and skills! Mala is very knowledgeable and well…read moreversed in everything BABY! She is willing to go above and beyond to help with questions and has helped my family with everything from eating to sleeping to advice about when to get my baby on a schedule. From the start, I had trouble with breastfeeding and Mala helped me right away. She gave me breastfeeding and pumping tips that I didn't even get from a lactation consultant. It really made a difference and gave me hope that things would get better with her advice. She also periodically checked it to monitor my progress, and as a new mother it was very reassuring and helpful to discuss my problems and concerns with her. My son was sleeping all day and not at night. Mala gave me advice about how to teach him the difference between the two and even provided me materials that would help him. She even made the extra effort to bring me the items since I couldn't leave the house with the baby. Mala is very knowledgeable about baby products on the market, especially organic products and their importance. She gave us helpful hints (such as using coconut oil to help soothe my baby) and great advice about different brands and which would be best for my baby. I would highly recommend Mala for all your baby needs. She is readily available, prompt with answering questions, and very knowledgeable. She has been so helpful for me and my family, I plan on working with her for a long time!

Owner, Mala, uses her wide range of knowledge from preconception to parenthood to determine the types of services and products that customizes to my lifestyle. As these times can be very stressful and overwhelming, Mala continues to empower, support and educate me in every way she can. Having someone there by my side showing me little tips, like pregnancy apps, proper diet, exercise and most of all staying STRESS FREE (huge tip actually) has made such a difference in my confidence during the last few months. Although labor and breastfeeding is a far fetch as of now and very very frightening, I couldn't be more comfortable and ready after discussing these topics with Mala. If there's anything she's the slightest bit hesitant about, she will research and immediately respond. Her endless crave for knowledge couldn't be more apparent. Thank you Mala for your efficiency, genuine care and above all for making me realize that this is a very normal HAPPY process, I'm not the only one. I have and would recommend Mom and All Consulting to all mom-to-be's and mommas out there! Babies don't come with a owner's manual, we all need a baby coach :)

She checked in frequently and answered all of my questions. Whenever I needed her, she was prompt to answer and always reminded me that she was there for me. When I went into labor, she was immediately by my side and did not leave until my baby was born and done with her newborn evaluation. I could not even imagine what birth without Kayla there would have been like! She massaged me the entire time, constantly encouraged me, and took care of any little details that came up so I could stay focused. I had an amazing, unmedicated birth and I could not have asked for a better experience! I would recommend Kayla to anyone! She will always be a part of my incredible birth experience and I am so grateful for her.

Jill even attended my sons bris and supported me during that difficult day. Jessi is the reason I continued to exclusively breastfeed my son for almost 5 months. I wanted to give up many times and she encouraged me to stick with it and guided me through the rollercoaster that is breastfeeding. The breastfeeding 101 class, better baby class, belly wrapping instruction and placenta services were great as well. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to Jill and Jessi, Shea, Anna and the whole WBC family for making my first pregnancy and birth a wonderful experience.

I truly cannot say enough positive about this doula. I found Jessi during the pregnancy with my…read moredaughter. The pregnancy was an emotionally difficult time for me and overall negative experience, and I struggled with very bad anxiety that something would go wrong. I had a horrible experience with my first doctor where I felt completely mistreated and downright bullied so I fired this doctor well into the 3rd trimester, as I realized i did not want to see her again or have her deliver my baby. Throughout this, she was such a source of peace to me, always there to listen or answer questions and supported me as I found a new practitioner at 35 weeks. At that point I took the only doctor in my area who would take me so late into the game, and although they were better and more respectful than the first doctor I saw, they still were not like minded to myself- they were very medical and intervention minded, and I have always known I wanted a natural birth with no intervention unless absolutely necessary. Switching doctors so late, not having a close relationship with my provider, and also working with someone who i wasn't on the same page with, it was SO great to have someone who I felt was there for me to really support me and who I had developed a relationship with. When there was something I worried about, Jessi was always there with a quick response to reassure me, and to listen; she has a calming way about her. She also always had tons of resources and referrals (for instance my baby was breech until the 11th hour and she provided me with resources and exercises, and by the birth she was headdown). Jessi was also so helpful, supportive, amazingly valuable to have during my birth. Honestly i do not know how i could have gotten through an over 30 hour labor trying to be as natural as possible, without her support. She truly went above and beyond for my husband, myself and my family. The contract was for her to be there 24 hours, she stayed with me for the whole time which included being up all night by my side, which was way beyond what we had agreed upon. She helped my husband to better support me (initially he was not in favor of natural birth or a doula and he has changed his mind and now says he would tell any couple who is expecting to get a doula). He got to rest a bit, which was needed. Also at times when the doctors were rude or pushy re: interventions in my labor, she helped me to think through things and advocate for myself. Although my birth wasn't fully according to plan I felt that Jessi helped support me to make decisions etc. in the moment and I feel overall good about the choices I made in birth given the doctor and hospital I was at that wasn't on the same page as myself... I was extremely nervous going into the birth and she was such a peaceful, calming presence to have there. Also i am very scared of hospital and medical things in general and probably acted in unexpected ways because of that during my birth, and i never once felt judged by her for that... She also updated my mom who was also very anxious about how things were going throughout the experience of my labor probably keeping her from having a heart attack :) ... all in all Jessi is an amazing, talented doula who you can tell truly does what she does from a place of passion and a heart for women in pregnancy and birth, and I would recommend her to anyone or hire her again in a heartbeat.
