Danielle was a wonderful support when I needed it most.  She is a very warm and peaceful person and she was exceedingly gentle with my newborn.  I feel absolutely confident in her abilities.  I would absolutely recommend working with Danielle!

We had the privilege of having Danielle has as birth support and a doula for the birth of both my daughter, at the hospital, and son, at home, who are 16 months apart. She recommended great resources to me as the birthing parent, and offered suggestions and resources and sharing her own personal experience working through these herself which I so appreciated. I was thankful that she was mindful of how I might think differently regarding resources she recommended and she always kept an open mind to listening and sharing others experiences as well with birthing. 

Before both births, she wanted to make sure that she knew how I wanted to feel supported during the birth and postbirth and we had extensive talks (both her, my husband and I) on birth and postbirth - again, so helpful. And for the births themselves she was so helpful and supportive, just the way we wanted and envisioned it to be. We could not be more thankful. 

I was very thankful for her care and attention to things that we cared about and wanted as part of our birth experience, and also the encouragement and support before hand was much needed for us both first and the second round.

She is a gem. Very resourceful, caring, encouraging and cares about you and what you need.
