Here is what a client named Jane has to say about working with Raquel:

I worked with Raquel as a post-partum doula after my twins were born.  She did daytime care.  She was very conscientous about their care, noting things that I might want to be aware of, like investigating if they had lip and tongue ties (it turns out they did).  She was very capable at caring for both babies at the same time, by herself.  She came with me to a few doctor's appointments and helped both care for the babies during the appointment and ask the right questions of the healthcare provider (I was tired and not always remembering everything).  She was also very helpful in organizing the nursery and keeping everything clean and in the right place.  I appreciated her support for me as well.  I didn't experience post partum depression or worries about parenting (I'm not a first time mom) this time around, but it was nice to have someone I could talk to about stuff and help with fun things like taking pictures (hard to do with two!).  And there were plenty of times I just took a nap, relaxed in the knowledge that my babies were in capable hands.  I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a supportive post-partum doula.

Here is what a client named Katya has to say about working with Susan :

Susan Martin is profesional and knowledgeable. When I googled her name and found out that she has been a La Leche League leader for 17 years, teaching the Bradley childbirth classes for 10 years, I really wanted her to be our Doula. In the couple of months, we built our relationship with her and I felt very comfortable and supported in Susan's caring hands. She wanted us to be educated and prepared for birth as well as postpartum. We borrowed from her library books and videos. She was teaching us the meditation and relaxation. Working with Susan helped me to build a stronger relationship with my husband. We were writing in Susan's class about our feelings for each other and sharing games to make our baby's birth as healthy as possible. My husband learned how to do massage for me and be supportive during labor and after. We were prepared by Susan for anything. My labor was 60 hours! Susan was with us for much of this time and her presence let my husband rest as much as possible before important moments. She drove me to my midwife's office for a checkup and let my husband sleep after he was up all night. She walked with me, and was taking amazing care of me that I will never forget. Her touch and massage was my pain killer; she really knew what to do. I didn't have epidural and do not remember any pain. She brought to us a lot of helpful supplements and props. I learned from Susan's birth preparation lessons how to push and it helped me a lot, I didn't have episiotomy and almost no stitches. After our girl was born, Susan visited us to check on our recovery, breastfeeding, and baby care. She helped me with my breastfeeding challenges with hands-on technique, sent me links on educational videos, and emails with support. She even asked us if we needed anything from stores. We hired Susan for postpartum, too. On the days when she was with us, I was able to rest, because she really knew what I needed. Susan cared about us like her own family!

Here is what a client named Laura Russo has to say about working with Camille Fiori:

Camille was amazing as our hypnodoula and hypnobabies educator! We knew we wanted a doula and yet were on the fence about hypnobabies; but I’m such a proponent for using the power of our mind to overcome challenges that I decided it was worth a shot. I hadn’t used hypnosis before and now I can say how incredible it was to have positive and powerful messages in my mind to build trust in my body’s ability to be pregnant and give birth the way I wanted to. Camille’s hypnobabies class taught us everything we needed to know about pregnancy and birthing options.

I loved that she was also our doula so we had our 1:1 meetings for personalized support and she was key in my feeling calm and reassured during our baby’s birthing time. She was so respectful and open to our own interests and preferences from beginning to end and ensured we were well informed to make our own decisions. She has a wealth of knowledge! Her expertise from years of experience and certifications is exceptional and it’s really apparent in her guidance and tips for all things baby and birthing.

Hypnobabies contributed greatly to feeling peaceful and confident within myself. And my husband and I felt so connected to Camille and appreciative that she was a calm, guiding, and sweet presence for us during the birth of our baby - an unforgettable and beautiful experience that was made so because of her support through it all.
