I cannot recommend Amanda enough as a birth doula. From the moment we met her, my husband and I felt completely at ease with her and all our nerves evaporated knowing we would have her in our corner. She provided both of us with all the resources to help prepare us for the birth of our first child, guided me through the development of my own personalized birth plan, and answered all of our questions with patience and openness. She was always available for a quick call or text to helped me navigate important decisions and process new information about my pregnancy and my options for delivery.

During labor and delivery, Amanda was an absolute rock for us. Her calm presence was a huge source of comfort for both of us, and her expertise in laboring positions and breathing through contractions were an absolute game changer. I went from 3 centimeters to 9 centimeters in just a couple short hours in large part because of her guidance!

After our little one arrived, Amanda stayed with us well after the birth to ensure we were comfortable and checked in on us frequently providing us with valuable resources for postpartum care and recovery.

Overall, we cannot speak highly enough of Amanda. She is an incredibly skilled and compassionate doula who truly cares about her clients and genuinely wanted me to achieve MY desired birth. We feel so grateful to have had her by our side during one of the most important experiences of our lives, and we would recommend her without hesitation to anyone!

I cannot imagine my birth without having Stephanie Read to help educate, guide and coach me and my husband. I am so happy with my birth story and know that Stephanie played a big role in making that happen. I absolutely loved my experience with her and will be bringing her along with me in future births.

My husband and I took her education course, and we both learned so much and felt as prepared as we could be. When I started going into labor, my husband and I both knew exactly what to do. Stephanie is extremely knowledgeable and was there to answer questions for me throughout my entire pregnancy. 

I love how Stephanie put my desires for my birth plan first with her full support. There was never any pressure to go one way medically over the other. It was all about me, my desires and my choices. When we were at the hospital, she ensured that I had everything I needed at any given moment. It was so comforting to have such a good advocate since this was my first birth experience. Stephanie has an incredible calmness about her that will make anyone feel at ease. She is a great cook and always brought me treats and snacks. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Stephanie!!

Barb has been a huge help in the first year of my baby's life. This is my first child and I have had so many questions that I refuse to trust to Google. Barb is very knowledgeable on everything from when to start solid foods to how to make sure I have alone time with my spouse. I highly recommend her services to parents in all stages!
