Tanner is an excellent doula. For my second birth, I was unexpectedly in labor for 20 hours. Tanner helped make it a positive experience! Both my husband and I are extremely grateful Tanner was there. She graciously helped inform us as we had questions throughout labor such as - should I head to the hospital now, what position should I be in at this stage of labor, should I ask to have my water broken. She is skilled in spinning babies techniques, which was valuable to me. At the end of a 20 hour labor when my husband and I were exhausted and losing heart, she still maintained a calming presence and was steadfast in her encouragement!

Tanner helped prepare my husband and I for our first birth. We didn't even know where to start in our birth journey and she was so helpful in giving us direction. Not only did she provide a thorough and clear explanation of what to expect she also gave us so much encouragement! She is so gifted in explaining the different stages of birth as well as uplifting her clients. She is genuine and cares so much! She spent hours with us to make sure all our questions were answered and we felt confident! She also made sure we knew she was available for more help in the future. The time she spent with us was a gift and we are very grateful for her time and support!

We are so thankful for Tanner and her knowledge! My husband and I took a prenatal class with her to prepare for the birth of our first child which ended up being one of the best decisions we made during my pregnancy! We came to the course pretty nervous and clueless and left feeling a lot more comfortable about what was to come. We learned so much about what my body was going to be doing to prepare for birth, what different things should feel like and were given a list of options we would likely be presented with by doctors so we could research and be better prepared with our preferences for the delivery process. We cannot say enough good things about Tanner, the course, and our experience! She made us feel so comfortable and at ease. She had a calming presence that made us comfortable to ask questions and was so knowledgeable and thorough. We left the course feeling very confident, informed, and prepared to bring our baby girl into this world! We would easily and highly recommend Tanner to others preparing for birth.

Let's start by saying how amazing Tanner is ??

We found her contact via doulamatch and  we couldn't be more surprised how well the Match worked. She is so caring and beautiful person, and I'm so fortunate to have shared my first birthing experience with her. She made us feel very comfortable and took away a lot of stress that comes with the unknowness of giving birth. Tanner and my husband had a very good team feel going on during the labor, so it felt like we have known each other forever. 
She is truly an amazing birth partner and we would love to work with her again in the future with my next labors ??

Thank you Tanner!

Feels like you are part of the family now??

Words cannot explain how grateful I am for Tanner and her knowledge on all things pregnancy and labor! She was invaluable during the pregnancy by always answering any questions I had and showing me and my husband techniques to get through labor. She was so supportive of my wishes! I really couldn't have done any of it without her! My husband also agrees that she was essential to our pregnancy journey! I really can't say enough good things about Tanner! If you are unsure if you need a doula, first of all you definitely need one and Tanner is your girl!!

As a first time mom my husband and I decided to hire a doula because we were both overwhelmed and had no idea what to expect with pregnancy and giving birth. From the moment we hired Tanner and had our first meeting we both instantly felt more at ease about the process. Tanner walked us through everything we can expect, tips and tricks, and had us think about what we wanted out of the labor process. We truly could not have done it without her. Tanner was incredibly patient, kind, helpful and caring. She was able to help my husband help me through the laboring process. I can truly say it was an amazing experience that I remember and look back on with such joy. I never would have thought that labor could be calm and joyful instead of stressful and traumatic. But I know for a fact that Tanner is the reason everything went so smoothly. I cannot recommend her enough and we will have her be our doula again in the future if we are blessed with another baby.

We hired Tanner to give us a labor and birthing "crash-course" for our second pregnancy. Tanner was so thorough, detailed, professional, and explained everything on what to expect for labor and birthing! Not only did she walk us through each step but she also showed my husband and I different positions and counter pressure while in labor. Tanner's "crash-course" really increased my confidence in birthing our child un-medicated! We highly recommend Tanner!!

Our pregnancy/birth experience would not have been as amazing as it was without Tanner. I am an anxious/overwhelmed person and I was very nervous about labor and delivery due to some health issues I had, and Tanner was so caring and loving and listened to my concerns and addressed them in such a positive way that made me feel so much better. As first time parents, my husband and I had SO many questions and Tanner was always there to answer them the best that she could and showed us research and everything to back up what she taught us. By 39 weeks, I was 3 cm dilated and 75% effaced and I think Most of that is because of the stretches and exercises Tanner had me do to prepare my body for giving birth. My labor and delivery was something I was terrified about that it would keep me up at night and it was the best experience ever and I would do it again and again. My OBGYN even asked Tanner for her cards so she could refer her to patients because she was so awesome and helpful and respectful of my husband, the doctors, and nurses. Couldn't have welcomed our son into this world without Tanner!!!

We are so grateful to have had Tanner there to support us throughout labor and birth.  She knew exactly what to do and how to help and was patient with all of our questions.  It was so comforting to have an expert there with us, would definitely want her there if we have another baby.
