My husband and I knew we wanted to hire a doula for our first child. There is so much information on the internet and from family and friends and we wanted a guide to connect with who could share evidence based solutions and techniques to give us the best outcome for our birth plan. We couldn't have found a better match with Renee! She not only provided amazing tools and guidance, she helped us connect with ourselves and each other which made the experience so much more meaningful. She helped ease our anxieties and feel empowered to make decisions during labor I wouldn't have been able to without her guidance and expertise. She was available to us as much as we needed and a constance source of calm and loving energy. We also had a lot of fun! Renee is an incredible asset and I couldn't imagine my birth experience without her.

Renee was incredibly helpful throughout my preparation for childbirth, providing valuable education about the process and my various options. Together, we developed a birth plan that made me feel comfortable and confident. Even when things deviated from our plan during the birth, Renee remained supportive and optimistic, guiding me through the experience. After the delivery, she continued to assist my family, offering support for an entire week postpartum as I adjusted to our new routine, even helping with my older child.

We had such an amazing experience with Renee as our doula!  She was always there for us, from the prenatal appointments, to the birth and delivery, to the postpartum follow up.  Her visits were punctual, and she responded very quickly to any questions we sent through text and email. 

Renee has extensive knowledge of her craft, backed with medical research and sources that she also shared with us.  We felt comfortable trusting her advice and guidance, which was provided but never forced.  She always supported our preferences, and especially during the birth, she was flexible and highly attentive to our needs and wants.  This made the birthing experience much more comfortable!

Renee generally has a very bubbly and warm personality, but during the birth she became a soothing presence who understood when there was a need for peace and quiet.  Her postpartum visit wrapped up the whole experience so nicely - we all felt so well attended to.  I absolutely recommend Renee as a birth doula :)

Renee was wonderful to work with and really listens. Renee respects the needs and wishes of her clients and makes you feel well informed and safe! I highly reccomend her! I had my baby June 2 and had a lot of mental/hormonal issues during pregnancy that Renee helped talk me thru. I am so grateful!

Renee was the support we needed for our first birth! She always had an upbeat friendly demeanor! She catered to our learning style to help us understand pros and cons of important birth decisions. She helped me with pain management techniques and gave my husband ways he could help me with birth support/ pain managment, as well. Having her at our birth made us feel confident that we were doing everything right. She even helped us get our babies head un-stuck so we could continue the natural birth that we wanted.  Throughout my birth I felt in control, heard and taken care of. We met up after and discussed the entire birth.  It was a nice time to reflect.  She checked on our well being and gave us resources to make sure our postpartum time went smoothly.  We were very fortunate to have Renee as our doula!
