My experience with doulas Suzie and Sarah was nothing short of incredible. Throughout my pregnancy and birthing journey, they were not only kind, loving, and nurturing but also provided unwavering support and encouragement. Sarah attended my birth and will forever hold a special place in my heart. She was like an angel by my side, holding me through each contraction with a calming presence that eased my fears and gave me strength. Suzie and Sarah worked seamlessly together, ensuring that my needs were met and that I felt empowered every step of the way. Their guidance and expertise were invaluable, and I cannot thank them enough for their dedication to making my birthing experience as positive and memorable as possible. I am forever grateful for the love and support they provided during one of the most transformative moments of my life.

Additionally, after the birth, Sarah went above and beyond by preparing a warm meal for my fiancé and me. The chicken noodle soup, bread, and butter not only nourished our bodies but also warmed our souls, providing a comforting conclusion to our birthing journey.

Mackenzie also made my placenta pills and tincture and created a beautiful watercolor print of my placenta, adding her kindness to the mix. Their care extended beyond expectations, leaving an indelible mark on our hearts.

Sarah S. was our doula support for the birth of our first son. Her postpartum doula care provided  physical nutrients, emotional support, and wealth of expert knowledge of other pediatric and postpartum care specialists in our area. These supports saved us time & tears, and gifted us the pleasure of focusing on solely caring and loving our newborn.  She spirited us on a gentle path into parenthood when all other paths thus far had felt chaotic and hurried. 
10/10 would recommend Sarah and her team, well worth the investment.

My experience with Suzie and Sarah as my doulas was reassuring and warm. It's obvious by their compassion and dedication that they love their work. Sarah spent a day and a half at least with us when our son was being born. Her being there for both me and my significant other made us both feel so much more knowledgeable and prepared. We can't thank them enough and would recommend them to anyone! We love you Sarah and Suzie; you are the best!

Suzie and Sarah are some of the most incredible women I have ever met. From the moment I first talked on the phone with Sarah, I immediately felt calm. This was my first baby and I was feeling in the dark about everything. Sarah reassured me so many times that what I was feeling was normal and gave me permission to ask any questions right away. Upon meeting with both Sarah and Suzie, my husband and I felt like we took a breath of fresh air. We were looking for extra support during my labor not only for me, but my husband as well. He wanted to be able to help but wasn't sure how. It was such a blessing to know I had 2 doulas, I never feared whether or not I would be taken care of. When I first starting going into labor, Sarah was on call. I know her personally so it was special having her there in the beginning. When Sarah left, Suzie came to the hospital and was with us for close to 12 (Maybe even longer?) hours. I was sad that my mom couldn't be there due to Covid protocols at the time. But Suzie had the most nurturing energy. I felt so comfortable even though I was in the most vulnerable position I had ever been in. I truly don't know how I would have gotten through it without her. She captured our first moments with our son and I'm forever grateful to have those photos to look back on. Don't hesitate if you're looking into these two, they are worth every cent!

What an amazing team of women! Suzie and Sarah supported us in exactly the way we needed. During a long 39 hour labor and swapping from two different locations they were with us the whole way and made the process so much smoother for us. They are so charismatic, caring, and fully supportive of not only the person giving birth but also their support person. My husband was given many opportunities to be involved in the birthing process and they constantly checked in with him to make sure he was okay as well. Suzie was with us upon delivery of our baby boy and she was amazing at helping me find peace in the chaos, supporting me exactly how I needed and keeping my family in the loop. We appreciate them being our team and couldn't imagine using any other Doulas for our future children. They feel like a part of our family.

I don't think words can describe how amazing Susie and Sarah are! We met a few weeks before giving birth and in just the initial two phone call I had with both of them I could tell, they were the ones! They cared so much for me and my family and they hadn't even met me and at the time there wasn't any talk of being my doulas yet. It was "we want to help you, even if you aren't our client." That made me love them so much more and made me realize they were a perfect fit for our family! Weeks leading up to birth they both were texting and calling seeing how I was doing, how appointments went, giving points on exercises to do to help me progress, praising me for what I was doing and encouraging me to keep doing, and reassuring me that my daughter would come in her own time and everything was gonna be okay (I'm a worrier). The time came! Sarah was the doula available but that didn't mean Suzie wasn't there in spirit! Sarah was there both times we went to our birthing center in the wee hours of the morning. Always helping me with positions, coaching me, giving encouragement to both my husband and I, and just taking care of us throughout our time there. Brought us soup, made my husband coffee, made sure I was drinking fluids, helping my husband help me, and went out and got us breakfast after birth. I couldn't have done it without just one member of my birth team's help and that means Suzie and Sarah! The following weeks after they would check up on me to see how check up went and to see how we were doing enjoying pictures being sent to them as well. All of this to say, if Suzie and Sarah are the perfect match for you, let them love you!! That's what they do and they are so amazing at it! Can't wait to call them next time to tell them I'm pregnant again!

Suzie & Sarah are both exceptional individuals, I am so grateful I found them and was able to have them guide me through the birthing process.

Choosing Suzie & Sarah as our doulas was the best decision we made for our first unmedicated birth experience. They are so kind, genuine, and nurturing! Sarah was present during my labor and she helped me stay calm and focused. She truly went above & beyond to make sure I was comfortable and taken care of. She is a huge part of why I had an amazing birth experience! Thank you for everything you ladies do. You are appreciated more than you know!

My birth was magical! The 4 main players were: mindful physical preparation, education on l&d and pp, amazing birth team, and most importantly, peace from the Lord. 

I am grateful to have Sarah, my doula, present in my life during pregnancy, birth, and pp. During pregnancy, Suzie amd Sarah both prepared my mindset for a celebration - dimmed lights, candles, twinkle lights, aromatherapy, music in the background. This was unusual for me coming from the Slavic background. I've never heard of birth as a celebratory event before... ? ??? ????? ?????? (Who know birth could look like that??) Sarah also talked me through the packing checklist so I don't under/over pack.

During labor and delivery, Sarah suggested useful tips to help me be nourished, hydrated, and well rested. Then reminded me to breathe and relax when my body got tense during the contractions. She saw exactly we're the tension was, and addressed those areas. Additionally, she took pictures & videos to capture this magical moment; for this I am extremely grateful for!!

After delivery, she prepared a beautiful, fancy meal for hubby and me and a Goodie bag with useful gifts to take home.  

Through the recovery period, she'd reach out to check on me every few days and help with any questions I had. We even went for a walk together once I was feeling better. I pray to have Sarah again at my next birth!

I truly believe in my heart that Suzie was the reason why my birth turned out exactly how I had hoped it would. It began with a couple days of prodromal labor, where she kept my mindset positive and guided me through exercises to help progress labor. Once in active labor, she never left my side and talked me through every contraction. She created the most beautiful setting as I labored in the tub. In the height of the intensity, at the times I didn't think I could do it, I heard Suzie's voice, calm and encouraging. Hours after my son was born and my husband and I got to process things, we both agreed how amazing Suzie was. Her advocacy and support are what got me through and I will always be forever grateful for her as my doula.

Suzie and Sarah treated me like family! I live far away from my family, so it made a huge difference having them to care for me before, during, and after my birth; a time when I am most vulnerable. I highly recommend them as doulas because they were felxible, and always encouraging. Sarah attended my birth and helped me manage my pain, and helped me regain confidence when I was doubting myself. I would invite them to assist me for another birth in the future!

Straight up Amazing! We had the pleasure of getting Sarah to be a part of our team for baby Leif, and for first time parents, kinda didnt know exactly what to expect. But it couldnt have gone better if we had actually tried to plan it. Every concern or question through the entire pregnancy, Sarah was there to answer and help ease any stress and give peace of mind and when it was time for the big moment, we couldnt have felt like we were in better hands. Absolutely adore you Sarah! We will now and forever had a special bond and friendship:) This was far more incredible than we could ever have imagined.

Nothing but gratitude, love and respect for you!!

What do you look for when searching for a doula? Is it training, hands on experience, communication, or availability? For me, I needed this and more such as kindness, passion for their work, compatability etc. Sarah and Suzie checked every single box for me and so much more. 

Prior to birth, I spoke with Sarah and Suzie both seperatly and together. Each interaction gave me a sense of peace, knowing that I would be in good hands when it came time to deliver. That's exactly what happened, 6 weeks early to be exact. During the scariest time of my life, Sarah sprung into action to be by my side. Not only was my labor scary, it was also uncertain since within the last week of pregnacny I was diagnosed as high risk which completely changed the birth plan. This did not detour neither Sarah from the new task at hand. 

When Sarah arrived at the hospital, I felt as if the weight of the world from what I could control was lifted from my shoulders. She advocated for me in ways I couldn't have done myself. She gave me comfort and assured me that everything was going to be ok. Sarah cared, coached and advocated for me during labor in ways that you can only hope and pray for. She even continues to check on my family and I after the birth of my child. 

So when you are searching for a birth doula; consider someone that will always act in your best interest, communicate and understand your wants and needs, and treat you as if you were one of their own. You will get this and more from Sarah and Suzie; I guarantee this is a decision you will be happy with.

Suzie and Sarah are amazing! During our initial meetings, they were both so understanding and informative while we developed our in depth birth plan. I couldn't have asked for a better team.  Suzie was present for the birth of my baby and she was so wonderful to have by my side.  I had a difficult labor and she helped me navigate each contraction and stay calm. She was compassionate and empathetic. She was able to anticipate my needs without me asking or verbalizing them as well as what my significant other needed. When we decided to change location mid labor and go to a hospital, she led the way and was our advocate with the doctors that had never seen our birth plan. Suzie and Sarah are everything I needed in a doula service and I cannot recommend them enough. If I ever have another kiddo I will absolutely choose to be in their care again.

We had a wonderful experience with Sarah and Suzie as our birth doulas. Sarah was there with us at the hospital for the birth of my son. She was a constant source of support, courage and comfort for my 20+ hours of labor and delivery. I was uneasy about a hospital birth, but knowing that I had such an experienced doula by my side, advocating for my wishes, made me feel so much better. It was also very valuable for my husband to have Sarah with us, guiding the way so that he could focus on caring for me. The care and support from both Sarah and Suzie before and after the birth was comforting, complete and informative. Thank you for helping us welcome our baby into the world!

Don't hesitate, just do it! Having a doula was incredibly helpful for my birth. I had a prolonged labor, with complications, and Suzie was invaluable to me and my partner. We had a good birth experience despite the twists and turns. Both Suzie and Sarah were very professional, experienced, and responsive. I would highly recommend them!

Hiring a doula was probably the best decision we could of made during pregnancy. Sarah was a huge help to my wife and I. She had genuine care not only for us but also for the baby. She answered every question we had at any given time of the day. Sarah always made sure to give my wife and I our space but intervened when it was necessary, we loved that. We highly recommend her. Thanks Sarah! You are amazing!

Our primary doula caught COVID a few days before my wife went into labor. Sarah stepped (without having met either of us) the day my wife went into labor.

She was an **ABSOLUTE ROCKSTAR** and provided amazing support to both my wife and myself during the birth. We are both **SO VERY HAPPY** with the care we received from her and highly recommend her.

She coached my wife to try various positions during labor, provided emotional support for both of us as well, and suggested natural remedies to help ease the pain.

I believe she was instrumental in us achieving the non-medicated, vaginal birth we had planned.

Highly recommended. HIRE HER ALREADY! :)

my experience with suzie & sarah has been the best. They are extraordinary people, the best and it shows that they love what they do. For me they were like two angels in my labor because they were always there for me at all times holding my hand and motivating me to be the best. If I had to choose between them and other people, I would choose them again without hesitation. For me & my baby, they have become family. We appreciate them very much. Thank you both for being wonderful people, for being the best at their jobs. we love you so much matheo & me

Cannot recommend Suzie and Sarah enough! 

My story: I did not have a Doula for my first birth and it was something I seriously regretted. I thought it wasn't necessary, I thought it would cost too much. My birth plan didn't go as I had wished and I know that happens, but I couldn't stop wondering if I had hired Doulas would it have gone so much better? Fast forward 4yrs later. I was determined to have a natural birth. Not only did l achieve that, but I did it with so much passion, confidence, and power. I COULD not have done it without them by my side. From first meeting Sarah and Suzie to giving birth, they were EVERYTHING and more. They were knowledgeable, personal, professional, and they care  genuinely. I felt like I had known them for years and the experience they both had is what lead me to achieve my goals with birthing. My eyes still well up. When I think about the experience I had and when I think about the day I gave birth. They are my friends for life and I couldn't have done it without their knowledge and experience... that I am sure of!  

No matter what your birthing goals are home, Birthing Inn, natural, hospital etc. they are by your side and highly suggest you choose them.

From the moment I met Sarah I felt her genuine care and love for the families she works with and birth! Sarah is incredibly passionate about her work as a doula and she is so sweet, caring, and supportive. I'm beyond grateful that I had a doula who was available at any time when I needed anything!! Sarah was available by text or phone call and she always made sure that I knew to contact her if I needed anything!  Sarah included my husband along the way and gave us guidance as a couple and to me individually. Sarah was gentle, loving, and so knowledgeable (positions, relaxation techniques, etc). She believed in me and gave me the strength to keep going and laboring when I needed extra confidence. I labored for a couple days at home and her ongoing support kept me focused and determined to trust in my body and continue to focus on my goal of meeting my baby.  I had only known her a few weeks before my birth (I chose to hire a doula towards the end of my pregnancy) and it felt like I had known her for years. Sarah was the "mom" that I chose to have at my birth. She was so easy to talk to, lean into for support, and just so easy to LOVE. She brought my husband and I dinner on the first night I labored. I was already so tired and hungry and she brought us a home cooked meal. Sarah has such a genuine and LOVING heart. Anytime we needed her she was there as quickly as she could be (both at the Birthing inn and the hospital). Even after birth she still reached out to me to check in and support me with all the postpartum feeling I was having. I cannot thank Sarah enough for all of her support during labor and her endless love and care for my family. I cannot say enough about how wonderful Sarah is, hiring her as your Doula is the best decision you could make for your pregnancy and birth experience!

Sarah and Suzie are amazing! My birth unexpectedly changed very rapidly and Sarah was there for me every step of the way! Definitely recommend these doulas for anyone who needs support for their birth!
