Emily is literally my baby's favorite doula. My baby smiles immediately when she sees her, calms easily with her and can even fall asleep on her, for context my baby is a Velcro baby who could barely be calmed at all without me. I think that tells a lot about how sweet and great Emily is. She is the most professional, kind and patient doula anybody could ask for. She is extremely easy to work with, and she genuinely loves the baby. I could hear her giggling with my baby all day. She offers a ton of support to both of us that is completely beyond my expectations. She offers help all the time and even when the baby is sleeping she looks to see what she could help with around the house, which lifts a big burden off me and honestly the house looks better every time she comes over.

Emily has been a godsend to our family. She helped us out during my most stressful times when I had to juggle between work crunch season and a baby on a short notice. We got extremely lucky that she had availability. I truly believe every family needs an Emily at whatever stage they are in, and, I know I have said it but I'm going to say it again, she is the best doula anyone can ask for.

Oh my goodness, what a blessing to our family! Emily is so kind and nonjudgmental and especially intuitive. I know for me it can be hard to ask for things and she made me feel really comfortable and at ease. I was healing from an unexpected c-section and she was so good at anticipating my needs and making me feel cherished when I felt so vulnerable. She was very helpful knowledgeable with nursing as well. She's got plenty of tricks up her sleeves, so keep her around as long as you can.

Even if the first few months with our newborn daughter felt like a blur, Emily truly helped us slow down and opened our eyes to all the resources available for us. I really appreciate that she took the time to listen and understand our specific challenges. My wife has some severe joint problems and was worried her physical abilities would be a barrier to bonding with our baby. Emily was so understanding and helped find adaptive solutions that worked for Michelle as well as connecting us with other experts with specialties for her specific concerns. 

During a time when the entire world seems focused on your littlest one, Emily was there to remind us to take care of ourselves. It seems obvious, but it's so hard to accept in the moment that we can't be everything we want to as loving parents unless we are the healthiest, happiest versions of ourselves possible. Emily was always did everything she could to make sure my wife and I were at our best, and always in a way that was respectful of our values and privacy. Sometimes that was helping get a meal on the table and sometimes it was just listening to me rant about hospital staff. 

We both appreciate her so much and I'm sure you will as well!

Hey moms, especially MOMS OF MULTIPLES: Emily provides an excellent doula service. She is very respectful of your time, your house and most of all your children.

She came right in and provided support immediately. She shares her knowledge of the post partum process and eases the transition to home. 

If you are in the market for a doula in the Raleigh/ durham/ chapel hill area You have found your match!

As a kind and thoughtful person, Emily is exactly the right type of doula you need to assist you in those crazy, beginning weeks. Knowledgeable and confident, she can assist you without making you feel inadequate. As a second-time mother, she helped me remember soothing techniques I had forgotten, suggested some new baby-wearing techniques that helped me better manage a toddler with a newborn, and helped me find mothers and resources I could use in an area I just moved to. She was just generally reassuring and helpful. I 100% recommend her to anyone looking to hire a postpartum doula.

We couldn’t have enjoyed or appreciated our time with Emily any more than we did. She fit in seamlessly with our family, quietly finding helpful things to do around the house and always managing to attend to whichever child needed her most at that moment. After each session our children begged for her to come back soon. And so did I: even as a 5th time mother, I found Emily’s listening ear and insight into newborns so helpful and comforting in those challenging early weeks.
