    This was my first pregnancy & I my husband felt more safe me giving birth at a hospital, so as a compromise I agreed but having a doula was my requirement if I was going to give birth there. That's when we found Lindzee through The Breezy Doula. Upon first meeting her she had such amazing, strong & positive energy I knew this is the kind of personality I'd need as support when giving birth. Through my pregnancy she would touch base with me ensuring I was feeling good & getting my birth plan together. In preparation for my birth a few weeks before my baby arrived, she provided me information & a schedule to follow to get ready for this major event which I loved because it was an easy way to do my best to prepare for something that I was excited for but also a smidge nervous for. Once at the hospital my birthing experience did not at all go according to plan of my birth plan but yet Lindzee was absolutely GREAT support!! I had to be induced & while waiting for active labor to begin Lindzee was ensuring we were ok & when we'd have questions as to what the nurses & doctors were telling us we'd FaceTime her & she'd help explain to us our options so that we could do our best to stay close to my original birth plan. Eventually, it got to the point where at the very end of my birth the doctor walked out of the room because her & I were not agreeing on how I wanted to give birth but Lindzee was my stronghold & exactly what I needed. She supported me to make my decision that I felt most safest & confident with & I was able to still give birth how I wanted to in the end & I am forever grateful to her & how she showed up for me & my husband in that very intense moment. I HIGHLY recommend Lindzee for her doula services. I look back on my birthing experience & am SO glad I had Lindzee as my doula. Thank you so much Lindzee!!

    Choosing Valerie to be my doula was without a doubt the best decision I made for my pregnancy and birth journey. Going through pregnancy and labor for the very first time was incredibly scary, but having Valerie by my side made all the difference. She was a truly essential support system for me--from the early stages straight through every single contraction. When the pain felt overwhelming, she stayed grounded with me, helped me find my inner strength, and refused to let me feel alone. Beyond her incredible physical and emotional support during labor, Valerie showed an extraordinary level of professionalism and dedication. She calmly handled challenging and unusual circumstances--including mediating sensitive marital communications with my husband--with complete grace, tact, and composure. She never shyed away from difficult moments or complex dynamics; instead, she stepped up as a reassuring, balanced mediator when I needed it most. Valerie was truly always there when I needed her. Her strength, unwavering presence, and deep compassion made a profound impact on my birth experience, and I am so deeply grateful to have had her support. If you are looking for a doula who is compassionate, fearless, and reliable through every step of the process, I cannot recommend Valerie highly enough!

    Going into my first pregnancy, I set a goal for a natural, unmedicated delivery. As someone who doesn't consider myself to have a high pain tolerance, I knew I needed the right tools to prepare both my mind and body. I saw breezy doula on IG. I interviewed several doulas, but after meeting Amanda, I knew she was the perfect fit for me. Amanda's knowledge and experience far exceeded the other doulas I spoke with. She was well-versed in Hypnobirthing, which gave me the tools I needed to feel confident and prepared throughout my pregnancy. She was always available, answering even my silly questions with patience and reassurance. She helped me solidify my birth preferences and made sure I understood the pros and cons of each option, empowering me to make informed choices. When my water broke and things didn't go exactly as planned, Amanda's expertise really shone through. I had to make some difficult decisions that I hadn't anticipated, and throughout it all, she kept me confident that I was making the right choices for me and my baby. She gave me the facts, helping me navigate the pressure and fear-mongering that can sometimes come from hospital staff. During labor, Amanda guided me through different positions to help things progress and provided coping mechanisms to manage the pain. Her presence created a calming atmosphere in the hospital room, and her reassurance made me feel like I was almost there. One of the things I'm most grateful for is how Amanda advocated for me when I couldn't advocate for myself. This was, for me, the most important role a doula can play--and Amanda exceeded all my expectations. Even after my delivery, Amanda helped me process the experience, offering insight and understanding that I wouldn't have had without her support. I honestly cannot recommend Amanda enough. I wouldn't have been able to achieve an unmedicated birth without her. She is truly living out the calling God has on her life , and it's clear she has a deep passion for what she does. If you're considering hiring a doula, hire Amanda. Her pricing is affordable, and she's worth every single penny.

    When I first became pregnant, I felt a bit lost and didn't have the strongest support from my initial provider. After taking hypnobirthing and working with Carla (our doula) through Breezy, I now feel so much more confident and informed, which I truly believe will help me have a gentle and empowered birth. Bree and her team are incredibly caring, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Even my partner loved the class and said he'd recommend it to any of his buddies who become parents. I only wish more people knew about the profound benefits of truly understanding labor and birth. Thank you so much, Bree! This experience has transformed our outlook on pregnancy and given us invaluable tools that we know will guide us during labor.

    My husband and I recently completed all five sessions of our HypnoBirthing class, and overall, it was a valuable experience as we prepare for the arrival of our first baby. We initially enrolled in the course because my husband really wanted to feel more involved and confident during my labor, and this class definitely helped him move toward that goal. One of the aspects we appreciated most was the hands-on practice in the course. Those moments made the material feel practical, applicable, and easier to retain. Because they were helpful, we actually wish hands-on exercises had been incorporated into every class. While we covered a lot of important information, some sessions were more presentation-heavy, so integrating more interactive work each week would have strengthened the learning even more. We also have a suggestion regarding the structure of breaks. For each class, there is one 10-minute break halfway through class. Since the content can be dense and information-rich, shorter but more frequent breaks, like a 5-minute break every 30 minutes, would help with focus, energy, and overall retention. Overall, we're grateful for the experience and everything we learned, and we're looking forward to putting these tools into practice. I'm especially appreciative that this class helped my husband feel more confident going into our labor and encouraged meaningful conversations between us, ensuring we're fully aligned as my due time approaches. Our suggestions are simply intended to make an already meaningful and supportive class even more effective for future families.

Because of the pandemic, Meredith gave us options to come in-person or attend the class virtually, and my wife and I felt comfortable enough to do a hybrid of the two. Meredith was very Covid-conscious and always made us feel safe. After looking up different birthing methods, we thought the best one that suited us was the Bradley Method course. We learned so much from it -- we know so many people who go into giving birth with zero knowledge and even though it's scary, we still felt so prepared. We learned about childbirth itself of course, but also patient advocacy, postpartum care, etc. The best part is that Meredith was still available as a resource and pillar of support when we needed it -- even to this day when our son is 14 months old! I gave birth at a birth center with a midwife but felt wholly prepared if I had to be transferred to a hospital. When it's my wife's turn to carry, we'll be retaking the course so that I can take on the role of the coach like my wife did for me.

    This review is long overdue. I'll begin by stating that Christy successfully delivered our…read morebeautiful daughter Saturday, January 18th 2025. This is was not my first homebirth, prior to this my 3 sons were all born using South Coast Midwidery (SCM), their births were Dec. 2009, Dec. 2013 and Dec. 2015. The very first birth in 2009 was a great experience and SCM provided a great experience, but the following 2 homebirths left a lot to be desired. The compassion, love, care and humanity had left their practice by 2013. Having had this experience, when we became pregnant with our daughter 10 years after my last home birth, I knew I would need to find a new Midwifery/Midwife to work with. We did interview 1 other Midwife who we decided not to pursue care with, and I also reached out to Lindsey from OC Midwifery who I heard back from once, but not again (after multiple attempts) after mentioning we were in the "trying" stage of having a baby. When we discovered Christy it felt like a Godsend, it was coincidental, but driven by more than pure coincidence; it felt more as fate. Christy was quick to respond to our inquiry. When we had our initial video call with Christy we immediately knew she was our midwife. She embodies compassion, positive energy, care, enthusiasm, humanity and friendship that I believe every pregnant women needs! An impressive characteristic Christy owns is she in present and listens to mom and dad from beginning to end. She takes it all in and becomes the physical manifestation of what her client is in search of. Needless to say every in home appointment would build on the previous one and a bond was formed by all of us, but most importantly the bond of trust between mom, baby and Christy. Christy gave my wife the empowerment of being confident she was more than capable of birthing at home. (Read Steph T.'s review, that's my wife). We all felt the birth would go quickly, and it did when baby's birthing time came. We used the knowledge we gained at Christy's Bradley Class and although we had a slight complication, we were never concerned, worried or scared. We had all faith in God and Christy's experience and expertise. Christy put her game face on and delivered our baby girl earth side and we couldn't have been happier with our experience. Christy did have an assisting midwife, by the name of Ana, who we met several times, weeks before our "guess date". Ana was also great and of course she was, because Christy chose her and I wouldn't have expected any different. Now, fast forward a little over a year later and we have a very healthy baby girl who is thriving. We are pregnant again and excited to have our second birth with Christy as our midwife. This time our bond is much stronger, which I believe will serve as the catalyst of creating a similar birth as before, or possibly even better. I hope this review reaches any mom and/or dad looking for a midwife; who may be unsure of who to go with. The birth of our daughter this year (2026) will be my 5th homebirth experience and I will confidently vouch for Christy as the right midwife to choose every time.

    Christy was so amazing! I am so thankful we took this class before our first child. Although our…read morebirth plan didn't go how we wanted, I was extremely prepared and had back up plans.

She's generously been giving me PP & lactation advice, as well as, providing some serious piece of mind when a pediatrician told me I needed to supplement with formula. Not even 36 hours after giving birth. I can't recommend her enough. PP education is seriously lacking in this country, so not enough women even know this service is an option. But placenta encapsulation has definitely impacted my recovery for the best. Hours after taking my first dose I felt like I could run a marathon. If you're considering encapsulation, just do it. It's worth every cent.

We learned how birth is physiological, how to be fully present in your birth, how to prepare well and take control come the day of your labor and delivery, how to work with your contractions, maternal instinctual movements and positions with your body during L/D, prepped my husband in how to be there for me during pregnancy/L/D, informed medical decisions, diet, anatomy, and so much more. A wealth of information, but also felt like such a safe and encouraging space. I believe this class helped prep us to have the birth space we wanted, which was also filled with peace, power, beauty, love, support, and knowledge. Also, Lea Burke at the Long Beach location was very sweet, encouraging, educated, worked with us when I got put on bedrest by the second class, and even maintained communication with us post class and post birth. Would recommend to others!

    I found Labor of Love by doing some of my own research online. And thank God I did! My doula,…read moreKaren, was my rock throughout my labor and was 100,000 percent amazing--I'll definitely be working with her for my second! A little backstory: I was overwhelmed and so nervous about finding "the one" person to be a part of the most important event of my life. After doing my research and reading through all these bios, I honestly was left feeling overwhelmed, especially knowing how indecisive I can be. I knew I just had to trust my intuition and my gut on this one! After looking at Karen's bio on their website, I had such a good feeling. Staci (the owner), who was super friendly and professional, helped me get connected with Karen, and I booked an interview right away! Karen was so sweet and asked me about my pregnancy experience so far. We discussed how I wanted my birth to go and any concerns I had. There wasn't any pressure to hire her, and it just felt like she was already invested in me, like I was already family. I even had her video chat with my husband to make sure we both felt comfortable and vibed well together--and we sure did! Overall, Karen ended up being the perfect balance of knowledge, experience, and professionalism. It was the most perfect amount of care I could have asked for. She was also such an advocate for my birth plan to work out. Before, during, and after my labor and birth, she was always naturally in tune with what I needed. She was never overbearing, worked so well with my husband, and gave him space to be a part of my support team as well. I am so grateful to have come across Labor of Love

    The business owner is quite the opposite of the type of person any vulnerable new mom should have…read moreto work with. My experience with Labor of Love was almost two years ago now but continues to upset me when thinking back on my experience. We hired Lauren as our doula, who made it clear she expected us to go far past my due date as a first time mom. While it's possible for that to happen, it didn't in my case. At 39 weeks and at 5am while in active labor and getting ready to head to the hospital, she let us know she had Covid. Her backup was Karen, who I wish we hired to begin with as she is far more caring and professional. Though unfortunately our experience still fell short and we ultimately delivered without Karen present. We were left feeling like we invested a lot of emotion and money into this process with ultimately no help. Staci has been incredibly rude to us since then and even revoked our access to watch her training videos, sending me a link to pay her once again when wanting to rewatch for our now second baby on the way. Karen herself even recommended we ask for a partial refund due to our experience, but Staci lacks the professionalism and courtesy to her clients. Truly mindblowing that she revoked access to the training videos after we had already paid for them. I would stay far away and recommend a more experienced and caring doula group.
