Here is what a client named Oliver Liao has to say about working with Jenn:

One line review: Jenn was our overnight postpartum doula for 7 weeks.  We wholeheartedly recommend her and would use her again!

Jenn is amazing and if you hire her you will absolutely agree!  My wife and I, being naive first time parents, didn't even think of hiring a postpartum doula until a few days after our baby had arrived.  After a few brutal sleepless nights at home we desperately started a search for help and interviewed several doulas.  Here are the reasons we initially chose Jenn to be our postpartum doula:

1. She is very experienced both in birth support and postpartum support.

2. She works for herself and is the sole provider.  All the other doulas we interviewed were with agencies which meant that to cover a week it would take at least 2 doulas, sometimes 3 or even 4.  We preferred to have one consistent doula for both safety/health reasons and to build a consistent rapport with the baby.  Agencies also take a portion of the fee so you end up paying both the doula and the agency which means a higher overall cost.

3. She is an excellent communicator, whether over the phone, Zoom, email or text.  She is responsive, professional and very detailed in all of her communications.

4.  We just clicked with her during the Zoom interview.  Her gentle, warm demeanor really resonated with us.

After 7 weeks all of the above holds true but I can also add that Jenn is reliable and prompt (she never missed a night of support and was always on time), diligent in keeping records of the baby's activities, provided helpful answers and guidance to our many questions, and managed to maintain a graceful, calm and positive demeanor even during our baby's most fussy nights!

To sum it up: the nights you know Jenn is coming you feel relieved and the nights where you're on your own you feel dread!  Thank you, Jenn!

Here is what a client named Kelly and Daniel has to say about working with Megan:

We were so lucky to have Megan as our doula for the birth of our first child! As first time parents, we had no idea what the heck was going to happen at birth and we wanted someone there with experience, who could support Kelly when/if Daniel couldn't, and who was aware of and supportive of the experience we hoped for. Kelly knew she wanted an epidural eventually (but not too early in the process), so we looked for someone who would be supportive of that and a hospital birth. We are a pretty go-with-the-flow couple, but we appreciate explanations and evidence/science-backed input - Megan came with all that as well as a bunch of options for pain management! She was friendly, kind, and followed our lead while also quickly jumping in (besides the tub, the MVPs of labor were her comb and spiky ball, though the back pressure was also key). She was happy to chill quietly, be super involved, or chat as we preferred, and she took photos during the birth that we are so happy to have. I appreciated getting to know her on our pre- and post-visits, and that she was available by text as a resource if it was needed (for us it wasn't haha, as Kelly went from very not in labor to in labor quickly, but we know if she had had a more confusing ramp-up we would have appreciated the resource). All this to say, we highly recommend working with Megan and we're very grateful she was there to help us meet our little guy!!!

Here is what a client named Lauren Castro has to say about working with Jennese:

Having Jennese as our doula was the greatest decision my husband and I made as first first time parents preparing for birth and postpartum. My husband and I were diving into the unknown with the most remarkable soul as our guide. Not only was Jennese impeccably kind, caring, and nurturing during the times we asked our anxious questions and shared our thoughts; she was steadfast in remaining informative, unbiased, and supportive with each decision we arrived at. She is incredibly well read and presented us with the latest research and resources any time we felt unsure which decision to make and needed more information on the topic. While I was in labor, Jennese knew exactly when to be our lioness and help guide us in advocating for ourselves to the medical team, and when to be our cheerleader on the sidelines when she saw that we were feeling more confident. Not to mention she was our personal comedian and kept the energy light when she saw that we were craving some belly laughs. Yes you read that correctly, she had me laughing while in labor! I never would have thought! Naturally anytime you invite someone into your life during an incredibly vulnerable and uncertain time, you hope that you can connect well and have a good experience. We truly had a remarkable experience with her on our team. She far exceeded my expectations on what she provided for us. She quickly went from being a stranger to feeling like family. I truly cannot wait until we have another and can have her right there with us again!
