Abbie was my doula for a hospital birth at Huntington Hospital in Feburary 2024 and she was amazing. Highly recommend! I had a traumatic experience with my first pregnancy and knew I wanted support the second time around. I found Abbie through the Village Birth. She was a great fit and a great price point, offering packages to purchase and I went with Package #2- 2 prenatal and 2 postpartum visits. Abbie even attended one of my OB appointments and helped me feel confident in asking questions and advocating for myself. She provided much education in the prenatal visits and helped teach my husband techniques to help with labor pains. Abbie was also so helpful during postpartum by providing meals (extra cost), household work, and taking care of the baby so I could sneak away for some "me-time." Abbie was such a joy, so helpful and super responsive to all my text messages and questions. Abbie was a great birth and postpartum doula!
