Marissa is amazing!! I cannot recommend the having a doula enough- having Marissa was an added bonus! Not only does she know her stuff but she also has the most calm demeanor. She’s easy to relate to and is so willing to help elevate your experience in any way possible. Her knowledge was incredible and gave insight to myself and husband as to where we were throughout early labor right up through delivery. Couldn’t say enough great things about Marissa.. highly recommend!!

Marissa was our favorite doula by a long shot. She was calming, trustworthy and so supportive with our twin boys. Knowing she was coming over a few times per week really put our minds at ease while we got some much needed rest. She is the type of person who goes the extra mile and will tailor her support to fit the needs of your family. This postpartum period was rough at times but I wholeheartedly believe Marissa made it easier on our family. I recommend her to without hesitation.

We hired Marissa as our doula to guide us through the birth of our first child. We were so happy with our decision and experience as Marissa has been a wonderful advocate, resource, and support during our pregnancy, labor and delivery, and throughout postpartum. We feel strongly that having her by our side for delivery helped make the experience so much more positive and smooth. Marissa was extremely professional, knowledgeable, comforting, compassionate, and helpful during the very overwhelming process of child birth. Throughout pregnancy she provided answers to our many questions. Throughout postpartum she has checked in on us and the baby regularly continuing to answer our questions and provide us with resources and her support. We couldn't have imagined going through this without her by our side and highly recommend her services for all expectant parents!
