Even when she had just given birth herself, I was able to message her any time and ask questions and she would be there to help me out. Being pregnant for the first time was scary, so many questions, so many signs and symptoms and not knowing which ones are concerning or not. Jessica sent me over videos to help with my pain (I had major back and hip pains during pregnancy). I can only imagine what she would of been like if she was my doula!

I really love that she only takes 2 clients per month as it was a fear of mine to have a backup doula sent to my labor and delivery. I am so thankful that she worked with my husband and I for a payment plan. Without that, I wouldn't have been able to have a doula for my birth. She was such a dream to work with and offered such wonderful prenatal and postpartum support. She also comes up with a cool birth plan to hang in your room and a lot of the nurses commented how they had never seen anything like it before and how nice it was to have. Thank you Jessica for nurturing me during this important time in my life! Highly recommend.

If this is your first baby or felt like prior labor experiences could've been better, I highly recommend setting up a consultation and you'll see how they take care of you from the start.

WE LOVE T'ARAH!!! My husband and I decided at 36 weeks pregnant that it would be the best choice…read morefor us to add a doula to our birth team for reasons of wanting advocacy, mental and physical support for both of us. We contacted several Doulas that we had found by researching online and received a response from T'Arah at Mother Bear Doula Services within hours. T'Arah promptly answered our initial questions and we ended up scheduling to meet in person to talk more in depth about our expectations, wishes, past experiences, etc.. Soon after arriving at the coffee shop, just myself with my toddler in tow, we ordered some drinks and snacks and settled at a table to get to know each other. Of course it wasn't long before my son became antsy and distracted; but Tarah immediately came to the rescue, pulling coloring supplies out of her bag and playing Paw Patrol on her phone for him to watch. I had barely met her and she was already such a great help to me! ;) I felt an instant comfortability with T'Arah; I was totally comfortable with going into detail of my previous birth, which had been a traumatic experience, and could sense that she was sincerely invested in mine and my husband's concerns, wishes and preferences.. She listened, asked questions, provided advice and input and acknowledged my feelings. We shared personal stories and got to know each other more in depth than just birth related topics. More than interviewing her to be our Doula, I felt like I had just made a friend who helped me to feel excited and empowered to give birth! A few short weeks later, and after meeting with T'Arah a few more times as well as going to the hospital tour together, it was time to have our baby! I had hoped and dreamed that this birth would progress naturally, without induction, but when the time came, there were reasons for my husband and myself to ultimately decide that induction would be the safest course of action for getting our baby out as soon as we could. I was initially heartbroken and scared, but Tarah was there every step of the way, going out of her way to teach us natural labor inducing techniques which did actually help tremendously, as well as staying available to text or call for anything we needed. When the time came to be induced and start our Childbirth journey, T'Arah was present and alert, providing all the support we both needed from walking, getting snacks/drinks, talking, joking, massaging, physically holding me up, counseling, calming, etc.. in spite of being induced, T'Arah encouraged us in taking every step we could to have a birth that we truly wanted, and I succeeded in taking it one step at a time to have the natural birth I had wished for without further intervention. T'Arah played a key role in helping me have a birth experience that I am proud of and I will always be grateful to her for that. We will definitely have T'Arah as our Doula for any future babies!

They are knowledgeable, emotionally supportive, and genuinely caring. They made me feel safe and respected the entire time. They have solutions for everything and did so well educating me on health, nutrition, my body, pregnancy, and the delivery process. Every part of my experience with them felt intentional and thoughtful, from the amazing childbirth classes with Brooke, to their newborn specialist Diana who was such a huge support after delivery. Anita was always so helpful and kind as well. I always felt listened to, never rushed, and like I mattered to them. They went above and beyond for me in ways I'll never forget, and because of them I had not just one, but two of the most beautiful birth experiences I could have EVER imagined. I've never felt as safe and loved as I did here. I truly don't know how I would've survived without them. I feel beyond blessed to have found this birth center. They changed my life and I will forever be grateful.

It was the best decision we made for us and our baby. My labor and delivery ended up being the total opposite of what we had wanted/planned and Kaitlyn was the absolute best coach and comfort during the whole experience. Not only did she educate us on what to expect, but she made us feel confident as decision makers and parents - before our girl was even here! My birth experience was intense and I cannot imagine going through it without Kaitlyn by my side. There truly isn't a better advocate for mom and baby than a doula. We learned that the hospital and staff (while they were great) just aren't as invested in you as a family. Kaitlyn helped us see a tongue tie issuse as well which after we got corrected literally changed our breastfeeding experience when it was looking impossible. Kaitlyn will always be a special part of our family story. Doulas are so gifted and magical and you will never regret having one - especially Kaitlyn if you're lucky to have her! We love you Kaitlyn!!!

However, after meeting and interviewing her once we knew she would be a great fit, and we are very glad we did! Our baby came unexpectedly early (our first child was 11 days late), and thankfully we were able to fit a quick refresher course in with Olivia the day before the baby was born. Before, during, and after labor Olivia was magnificent. She is rare in that she is both very productive and very calm and pleasant at the same time. She respected our wishes at all times while also providing appropriate and helpful advice and feedback when we needed it. We are so glad that she was with us, and recommend her very highly to anyone else considering her services!

We booked her that evening and we are so grateful to have her help us achieve the birth that we envisioned. She provided us peace in the unknown territory and guided us with her wisdom and knowledge. She met us a couple of times in our home (despite the long distance) to help us prepare for labor and delivery. Don't think twice about having Olivia with you on one of the most important day of your life. We are so happy with how ours went that we will have her with us again for our next baby.

We recently welcomed our third child and had the wonderful privilege of having Margie alongside our…read morepregnancy and birth journey for the second time. We had such an amazing experience at the beautiful and welcoming Frisco Birth Center for both births and formed a truly special relationship with Margie that will never be forgotten. Margie is an incredibly kind, gentle, supportive, knowledgeable, and professional midwife who genuinely cares about her clients in a way that is rare in any medical setting. Throughout pregnancy, she promptly answered any questions or concerns that arose, even making herself available between visits as needed, despite her busy schedule. Our older children came with me to prenatal appointments and they adore her as much as we do! She took the time to teach them and let them get involved in finding baby's heartbeat and position, which helped them get so excited to meet their new sibling. Leading up to the birth, we had some unusual findings in one of the blood samples that were run, and she put in extra time and effort to help us find the answers we needed to feel confident in our birth plan. There was also a risk of hemorrhage, but she wisely helped us weigh all of our options before, during, and after the birth so that we could have the safe and beautiful delivery we hoped for. Margie and her assistant midwife, Neta (who is also wonderful), accurately assessed the health of both mom and baby and responded quickly and professionally to any concerns that arose, including a very fast transition and delivery and maternal bleeding. We felt completely safe and empowered throughout the entire process because of Margie's clinical skill and compassionate demeanor. Birth can be unpredictable, and we felt well-informed and supported through every decision. After the birth, her standard of excellence continued, as she made multiple home visits to check on mom and baby and helped empower us make the decisions about his health we were uncertain. We are so grateful to know Margie and would highly recommend that others make the same choice if they are looking for a kind, gentle, trustworthy, skilled, and dedicated provider who truly cares.

If you are seeking kind, compassionate, evidence-based care and an empowering out-of-hospital birth…read moreexperience, look no further than Margie Wallis and Frisco birth center! My first birth was at a hospital and after doing thorough research, I realized that I deserved better than the care that I had received and knew that I needed a different experience. For my second birth I gave birth at Allen Birthing Center which was fantastic! This third time around, I decided to do several interviews of midwives in the area. I felt an instant connection to Margie and I knew that I wanted to go with her. I was having some financial issues at the time but she allowed me to make a payment plan and get a substantial discount. She really does care about people and want to help in any way possible. If you have formerly received obstetric care, I think you'll find that out-of-hospital midwifery care is a night and day opposite experience. Obstetrics focuses mostly on the baby and is very fear-based. Margie is very holistic in her methods and believes in the woman's body's capability to birth. She knows that the mother's emotional state is just as important as what is going on with her physically. Through our appointments I let her know my goals for my birth, including my desire to birth in an upright position. She made sure that all of my wishes were respected and I obtained the ultimate birth experience that I desired! I am forever grateful for her and consider her a friend. Ladies, please don't be fearful! Our bodies were created for this. Should a hospital transfer be desired or necessary, there is always a plan B and C for those scenarios. If you are having trouble getting your husband on board, I highly recommend having him watch "The Business of Being Born." Midwifery care is actually MUCH cheaper than standard prenatal care and hospital birth. If you choose Margie to help fulfill your prenatal, postnatal and childbirth needs, you cannot go wrong! Highly recommend!!!

After my oldest went to Kindergarten, he still enjoys going to KAP in the summer for camp; where they have weekly themes/topics and field trips (movie theater, arcade, splash parks, etc).. all included in the weekly tuition. The owner, directors, and teachers are all amazing. You can tell they are passionate about what they do. The owner does a great job with day to day operations, she's very "hands on" and and involved. I love how they routinely have free events for the community. Games, activities, and food! The curriculum is amazing. A lot of childcare centers advertise having a curriculum, but they really don't. I can truly say that KAP has a curriculum and kids are actually learning! They also emphasize character essentials; focusing on different character traits monthly. My son started reading before graduating the Pre-K class, at 4yrs old. Safety has never been a concern. I appreciate the thorough reports through Tadpoles and receiving pictures throughout the day. If I ever did have a concern, it was addressed immediately. They do call to let you know of any accidents or incidents; and they have a process for documenting it for record keeping. 10/10 all around!

From the moment you step through the doors, it's clear this is a place built on care, structure, and genuine love for children. We have one daughter enrolled in the preschool and our kindergartner in the aftercare program. The entire staff is incredible -- caring, attentive, and always engaged, even if your child isn't in their classroom. The leadership team is equally impressive: professional, approachable, and really involved in the day-to-day experience of every family. The facility itself is clean, safe, and thoughtfully organized. Every part of the day is structured to balance learning, play, and creativity, keeping kids engaged and happy from start to finish. Meals are provided and even include vegetarian options, which is such a thoughtful touch. We also love how Kiddie Academy goes above and beyond with weekend family events like "Reading with Clifford" and their annual Fall Festival -- they truly make families feel like part of a community. The celebration of diversity and different cultures from around the world is another standout feature that we deeply appreciate. If you're looking for a place that feels like a home away from home -- one where your children are loved, nurtured, and inspired every day -- look no further. Kiddie Academy of Prosper sets the bar for quality childcare. 10/10 recommend!
