I am a student midwife and worked with Hunter on one occasion at a very long birth! The way she quietly supported the mother in the background was truly inspiring. She stayed with the mother through the entire time putting her heart and soul into the laboring process.

Hunter was amazing! She went above and beyond in supporting my wife. She was able to coach, advise, teach, and support equally well, and is able to recognize what's needed in the moment. Her perspective, knowledge and skill was invaluable in my wife's first experience giving birth and my first time being a birth partner. She is incredibly caring, personal, and professional. I highly recommend Hunter!

Where to start? I can't say enough good things about Hunter. I had previously worked with Hunter and was always impressed by her positive attitude and kind-hearted nature. Hunter is one of the most dependable people around. During my pregnancy, she checked on me weekly and was always there to answer any questions. I value her opinion, and she is a great resource and a book of knowledge with her functional medicine background. She is wise beyond her years. My toddler was obsessed with Hunter! It was so cute to see them interact. I had a couple of false alarms for labor, and Hunter was there with me all through the night, checking in on me. The day my son was born, it was intense. My labor was fast and furious, and Hunter was there for me to support not only me but my husband. She was there for me during my extremely painful contractions and fast labor. After my son was born, she cleaned our kitchen and brought me some bone broth I had previously prepared. She was an angel and the most amazing asset. I am beyond grateful for Hunter and the support she has given to me and my family. She is an answered prayer, and I thank God for her support and prayers, both during my antepartum and postpartum experiences.

We absolutely loved having Hunter as our doula, she was so informative since the beginning of our prenatal meetings and answered all the questions I had as a first time mom. I was having contractions for 3 days before my baby came and she talked me through it and supported me the whole time, she was so amazing to have when I hit active labor and really helped calm me down and breathe through my contractions, when we transferred to the hospital she talked me through everything they were doing and my boyfriend was so glad she was there to help him as well! I am so thankful Hunter was there for the birth of our baby boy!

I can't speak highly enough about Hunter. She truly was a blessing to our birth. My partner was nervous about having a homebirth but Hunter was there to walk him through it every step of the way. After our birth he said he didn't know birth could be so peaceful, and Hunter played a huge role in that. For me, she knew exactly what I needed before I even said anything. She was there to do counter pressures with the change of my breath, I didn't even have to tell her I was having a contraction. She was MADE to be a doula! Her calm demeanor and sweet personality along with the knowledge she has of pregnancy and birth brought so much peace into my birth space I can't thank her enough.

My husband and I are so grateful God brought Hunter and us together for the birth of our daughter! I'm a pretty private person and was a little wary about having another body in the room during birth, but our midwives were recommending a doula for the birth of a first child and I wanted somebody who could support myself along with my (sometimes queasy) husband. We were both so grateful for the support before, during and after labor. Hunter truly cared for us and our daughter and offered great suggestions for comfort and to help the labor progress. I was especially grateful for her support as she offered to put on worship music or pause and pray over us. Neither my husband or I had much of an idea what to expect and Hunter guided us through the process calmly and clearly. I couldn't have asked for a better support team for the birth of my daughter!

Hunter is AMAZING!! She knows what she is doing! We are first time parents and did not know what to expect. She takes the time to answer any questions you have before, during, and after the birth! She carries so much peace and is so calm no matter the situation! She is a great coach and worked well with my husband to create successful laboring process. Look no further, Hunter is your Doula!

Having Hunter as our doula was such a blessing! This was my first pregnancy and birth, and my husband and I were planning a home birth. My husbands's job requires him to be gone for a few days at a time, so we knew having a doula would be beneficial in the instance he was not home when I went into labor. Having Hunter as a resource and knowing I wouldn't have to labor alone have me such peace of mind and comfort. Even though my husband was unable to make it to any of the prenatal appointments, Hunter was still able to give him prompts during labor that gave him the confidence of how to best support me. I am so thankful Hunter was present for the birth of our daughter and for being available both leading up to labor as well as following. I credit a lot of my positive birth experience to my wonderful birth team, and Hunter played a big role in that!

We absolutely loved having Hunter as our doula! As a first time mom I wanted someone to walk us through the whole process and we loved having Hunter there for every step of the way. In our prenatal meetings she was very informative and helped us navigate conversations with our midwife. During the labor and delivery she was invaluable to have supporting us! Her constant encouragement and presence helped me stay focused on the contractions and led to the quick and beautiful hospital birth I wanted. In the postpartum period she has been a helpful resource for all the new parent questions that come with a newborn. We are so thankful to have found a doula that shared our faith and is so dedicated to her clients! Hunter really felt like an amazing partner to come alongside us in our journey into parenthood!

We decided to do a home birth for our first baby, and Hunter was the perfect person to join our team. She was incredibly helpful the day of the birth. She brought a calm and confident energy to the chaotic day while being attentive to my and my husbands needs. She was just as helpful during the weeks leading up to and following the birth! Hunter always brings a positive and encouraging energy along with her wealth of knowledge and resources. She always made herself available to us, kindly checking in while we acclimated to parenthood, but was never overbearing. We are grateful she was part of our birth experience and would refer her to any friend of ours!

Hunter is an amazing doula! My husband and I moved to the area when I was 30 week's pregnant so our time with her was short and expedited but she handled it like a pro! Our meetings leading to the birth of our daughter were so informative, organized. Hunter prioritized coaching and training my husband on how to best support me during labor. When our daughter was ready to make her grand entrance Hunter was by our sides as soon as we needed her. She was calm, confident, and collected; being a first time mom she helped me feel supported, comfortable (as much as one could be in labor) and most importantly prepared! Post partum she checked up on us daily and was always available to answer my many new mom questions. Having Hunter as our doula was the best decision we could have made!

Hunter is amazing! We decided later in the pregnancy to get a doula and we are so glad we did. Hunter has been extremely supportive throughout the pregnancy and labor. She works with both mom and dad during the process and is an advocate the whole time. My husband and I highly recommend working with Hunter and we know you will too!

William is our first baby and he decided to come for weeks early! We are so happy that we chose to go with Hunter as our doula. She was with us at the hospital as soon as she got word that we were going into labor. Her presence provided peace to me and my husband as we did not expect to be having a baby so early. We had really desired to have the baby at a birth center with a midwife but we were not given that option since our baby was 36 week old. Hunter advocated for us at the hospital and we stayed on track with the birth plan as much as possible. Hunter was there by my side coaching me the whole way as well as providing guidance to my husband through the process. She was gentle strength and helped me to stay focused. She was a real anchor to the both of us during long hours of labor. I would absolutely recommend Hunter to anyone who is wanting a doula and we would most definitely love to have here again the next time we are pregnant!
