For my first birth, my intention was an unmedicated birth but it did not go as planned. I lost my stamina during birthing time/labor and had an epidural. For my second birth, I still wanted an unmedicated birth, but life got ahead of me, and I still didn’t prepare. I thought I would just wing it again but knew I was unsuccessful which is why I reached out to Rebekka. I only had a month to prepare for the big day and Rebekka introduced me to Hypnobabies. She was flexible and extremely accommodating given my short timeline. Since this was my second birth, I do have experience with traditional birthing classes and they lack support for unmedicated births. Hypnobabies is a comprehensive childbirth curriculum with an emphasis on having a positive mindset and calming the mind and body for an easy birth. It changed my outlook about labor and birth, and today I would describe it as a beautiful, natural, and empowering experience. Rebekka is a wealth of information, has a calming demeanor, and will always advocate for you. I highly recommend Rebekka as your Hypnobabies instructor and hypno doula.

Rebekka was my birth and postpartum doula during and after my first pregnancy. While I was still pregnant, we met multiple times to discuss my birth preferences and go over the whole process--I so appreciated this as it helped quell some of my anxieties and put me at ease. She was patient, kind, helpful and supportive. In my doula, I was looking for a birth guide of sorts, and Rebekka was just that. After I had my little girl, she continued to support me and my daughter through her postpartum doula work, and was an absolutely lifesaver, especially after my husband went back to work. Because we had built a trusting relationship while I was pregnant, I felt completely comfortable with her watching Vivienne so that I could walk the dog or catch up on some Zs. She answered countless breastfeeding questions, and helped me stick with it through the tougher moments (and now, 5 months later, I'm SO grateful for this). Without her, I would have had markedly less support and an overall tougher first pregnancy and postpartum journey. I am so glad I found her and was able to lean on her when I went through the biggest transition of my life. I cannot recommend her enough, both as a birth and postpartum doula. ??

Rebekka was a terrific doula! She was so knowledgable and really helped prepare us for labor and for the first few weeks at home. She made sure we had the information we needed even when we didn't know the right questions to ask. Rebekka was trully invaluable during my very long labor. She made me feel so supported and calm, helped me manage the pain and move labor forward, and stepped in so my husband could get some much needed rest. When issues arose, she made sure I was able to think through my options and really advocated for my preferences when I was too tired to do it myself. We are so thankful for Rebekka, and she really made the whole experience so positive, happy, and as stress-free as possible.

We would definitely recommend Rebekka, especially to anyone looking for a supportive and calming presence!

Rebekka was an amazing doula, especially for a first time mom like myself! She helped me navigate through my fears, views on birth, and included my husband in bonding activities before the arrival of our baby girl. during labor, she helped me immensely getting into different positions and using massage for comfort. It was a long labor and I was an emotional and mental wreck, but I seriously could not of done it without her or my husband! she gave me positive reinforcement and always made me feel like a superwoman. I will remember the experience forever, and I am eternally grateful for her as my Doula??
