It was a pleasure to have Jenica as our doula. Right from the beginning, I noticed she is friendly and very easy to get along with. She made sure to spend some time with my husband and I before our baby arrived and got to know us. She also checked in on me frequently and sent resources for any information she found necessary. Shes highly knowledgable and was able to give me guidance when needed. Jenica communicated very well and kept us in her plans, especially as my due date was arriving. When I went into labor, I was texting her throughout the day until I was ready to go to the hospital. Then, as I was telling my husband to text her to come to the hospital, she was already entering the hospital! Jenica is reliable and trustworthy. She's also a great advocate and made sure my husband and I were both taken care of. Another bonus to this wonderful lady is that I was able to have my placenta turned into capsels by her. It made it so convenient to have her there to take it with her. Plus, I trusted her with this! But it doesn't end with the pregnancy and labor support. Jenica came to check in on us in person. She continues to check in and to make sure I have the resources and support I need postpartum. She even came over to help us out when we were having carseat concerns. I'm so happy with were able to share this huge, life-changing experience with her. I felt safe and in good hands the entire time. Thank you Jenica!

To whomever takes their valued time to read this testimony of my heart based feedback for Mrs. Jenica Adams.  My wife and I had the pleasure of meeting Jenica a month before birthing our first born.  Up until the moment of us going into labor, we experienced pure care, passion, compassion, authenticity and an unwavering certainty knowing our birth plan would be respected, considered and accomplished into fruition.  We were supported with loving consideration and frequent checkups.   She also joined us for our OBGYN meetings and supported us with suggestions of how to connect and communicate with our OB when we felt our boundaries and birth plans weren't being respected and considered.  During labor, we were comprised with a few external events from our intermediate family that didn't support our birth plan and Jenica rose up and supported me with a healthy and loving way to set that boundary so our birthing experience was as best as it could be.  She stayed up for 24 plus hours making sure our comforts were prioritized and we were reassured when it was difficult to make birth plan alterations in peak pain and stressful moments.  When all was said and done, my Wife and I couldn't of asked for a more Godsent Doula who will forever be a part of our family's history as we raise our first child, a healthy Baby Boy, Micah.   Following up during the post partum chapter, we were respected with space and check ups as well as support at all ours of the day and night.  For anyone ever preparing to have a first time pregnancy. I highly recommend Jenica and the gifts she is blessed with and open to share with the world.  God Bless her and her family.  Thankful for this Woman and not only all she does but who she be.   Thank you for taking the time to read my experience of Mrs. Jenica Adams.

Jenica was amazing and a great help to experience. I actually met her the day before I went into labor! When my water broke she was ready to step into action with no hesitation. She was a also made sure medical staff followed my birth plan and that I fully understood everything they would say. She was helpful in so May different ways I can't list them all but most importantly she never left my side the whole labor and I thank her for that.

My experience with Jenica through San Antonio Birth Doulas was nothing short of exceptional. She was very informative, treated me like family, and was there every step before and after birth. She was so supportive of what I wanted and truly was someone I felt I could trust in my birthing experience. I would recommend her to anyone looking for an honest, trustworthy, informative, friendly doula. She truly treats you like family!

I just want to thank Jenica for being so amazing!My husband and I were extremely happy with her care!! I am so happy we decided to have a doula for this 2nd birth, and even more grateful we got Jenica. Jenica made me feel so comfortable and helped my get through some of the toughest times of my labor pain. She was always so encouraging and was always ready for anything I might need.  She respected my wants and needs and also helped me vocalize my wants and needs with the hospital staff when fear came over me. I couldn’t be happier with her care! Thank you again Jenica you are amazing! You are the definition of what it truly means to care for your patients comfort, needs and wants. So grateful to have had you be part of my birthing experience.

I only have wonderful things to say about Jenica. She followed the plan I wanted perfectly and even brought to my attention aspects that I would have missed and not been prepared for if it were not for her. She helped distract me in early labor and was perfectly hands on for transition and active labor. She asked permission for touch and movement options. She knew exactly when to jump in and do what I needed when I was no longer able to speak during contractions. She advocated for me with nurses and doctors. I cannot think of one negative aspect of having her as my doula. I would recommend her to anyone. She’s not only capable but likable. She encouraged me and was the reason I was able to birth naturally like I wanted. When I felt like giving up it was her words and actions that brought me through, allowing me to have an unmedicated birth for my daughter.

I decided to get a doula because I wanted to have an unmedicated birth and knew I’d need a lot of guidance and support. I chose Jenica based on her philosophy, experience and responsiveness.

Just shy of 38 weeks pregnant, I was diagnosed with preeclampsia which meant I needed to be induced right away. I was scared, but I still wanted to try to get through labor without an epidural. It was tough, but Jenica coached me through it and kept me focused on working with my breath, and reminding me that my body could do this. I delivered my baby without any extra interventions and it felt great to accomplish that!

Jenica was so dedicated and attentive throughout the whole process. She was able to communicate effectively with the staff to make sure my plans and wishes were honored for both my labor and with my newborn.

As soon as I get pregnant again she will be one of the first calls I make - we’re excited to have her there for our next birth!

Jenica is simply amazing. I have never met a person who is so calm, patient and understanding. She really makes you feel heard and comfortable. She's  sweet and gentle.  She's very knowledgeable and passionate about this.  She's everything you would want your doula to be. You and your baby will be safe and comfortable in her hands.
