Claire was my saving grace during my very long and failed induction. Having Claire with me to make informed decisions during my birthing process was the best resource I could have imagined. She is so knowledgeable, kind, and gentle. She supported my husband as well and I will be forever thankful for her. She is professional, and very easy to be comfortable with. Choosing Claire as my doula was the best decision I could have made for my pregnancy and birth.

I loved Claire’s consistent and friendly support. She had a wonderful energy. Claire provided education throughout my pregnancy and got back to me in a timely manner when I had any questions. I will definitely be seeking her support and presence in the future ??

Claire was our doula for the birth of our baby and we are so thankful for her guidance, support and friendship. She is so warm, friendly and easy to be around which was one of the most important things we considered when picking a doula. Claire offered her support throughout our whole pregnancy. We really appreciated the informational emails that were sent weekly. She was with us in the hospital for about 24 hours and was a true support and comfort. Claire had wonderful recommendations for pain management and stretching throughout the labor process and really helped us turn our hospital room into a place that felt like home. We love Claire and are so thankful we found her!

Claire was amazing! From meeting with us to learn exactly what our dreams were and really getting to know us as a couple and as individuals, to the birth of our sweet girl, she was the best person we could have had along for the ride. She was there to help empower me to make decisions and make sure the hospital staff was following my requests and even reminding me that I could do things differently and that she was happy to tell the staff to stop or change the way they were doing things. She also did an amazing job making sure my husband was taken care of when he was so focused on taking care of me. At the end of the day, the birth didn't go according to "plan" but because we had Claire talk through every possibility initially and then support decisions in the moment, it felt like the most empowered birth I could have asked for. I truly think she's a huge reason I went home feeling so positively about the birth of my baby. We cannot recommend her enough!

We are so grateful that we were able to have Claire as our doula for our son's birth. I had a great deal of anxiety leading up to childbirth, and I noticed that my anxiety significantly decreased after starting to work with Claire. During our prenatal visits, she explained aspects of childbirth that were confusing or frightening in a way that was gentle and easy-to-understand. Once labor began, Claire was always ahead of the game with techniques or tools to help. She took care of both my husband's and my needs, and she was a calm, reassuring presence during the entire process. When family and friends have asked about our experience working with a doula, we've told them that it was some of the best money we spent to prepare for our son and help with the birthing process. We would wholeheartedly recommend Claire to anyone seeking a compassionate, knowledgeable doula for their own birthing experience.

Claire is very very insightful, for first time parents she educated us on absolutely everything birth related to help us build our birth plan. She was very helpful throughout our whole process. She was also willing to take us as a client even three weeks before my due date which was so last minute yet we are so grateful for her taking us. Also, when I started active labor and called her she was there as soon as possible even though she lived an hour out from the hospital. Postpartum, Claire brought chili and some other essentials to help make things a bit smoother for myself. Overall 1000/10 recommend. Claire was amazing!

We consider ourselves incredibly fortunate to have had Claire as our doula. Despite bringing her on board much later than usual and our delivery arriving earlier than expected, before our scheduled prenatal visits with Claire, choosing her proved to be an great decision. Claire's unwavering guidance and support during the early stages of labor, were precisely what we needed. She was always there for us, never missing a call, day or night. During active labor, Claire effortlessly advocated for our birth plan, drawing solely from the information gathered during our interview  – and every decision she made was spot-on. Her intuitive understanding is truly invaluable. We feel very lucky to have had the birthing experience we desired, and much of that credit goes to Claire. If you find yourself contemplating the choice of a doula, take it from us – trust Claire. She surpassed our expectations and played an instrumental role in making our birthing journey truly special.

Claire was an amazing doula, he shared her knowledge and company with so much professionalism, dedication, passion and love. She was always there for us whenever we needed her and I always felt safe as soon as she arrived. I highly recommend Claire as a professional doula, I will hire her again and again in my future births thanks to the wonderful outcome after this experience with her.

I cannot imagine our birth story without Claire being a part of our team! We felt very prepared for any outcome after our in depth pre-birth conversations with Claire and she put together a great birth plan for us. On the day of labor and delivery she was incredibly helpful with coaching through various push positions, physically assisting during over 5 hours of pushing, and bringing her positive and motivating energy. I narrowly avoided a c-section, in large part because I had such tremendous help and our family will forever be grateful that we connected with Claire and had her as our birth doula for our firstborn!

Claire was so supportive for our birth! She is passionate about movement and strength and this expertise was applied during pre-labor meetings and for the actual labor. I appreciate that Claire took the time during our pregnancy to visit us, learn about our wishes, and build a relationship. She had great advice, recommendations, and tools. She sends a weekly birthing ‘newsletter’ that was super informative for me and my husband. Claire not only supported me, but was a good coach to my partner. This was our first baby and I would highly recommend a doula to any expecting moms. Claire gave me the confidence and peace of mind that we would be able to navigate the unknown of labor and be able to make adjustments to my birthing plan.

We feel incredibly fortunate to have had Claire as our doula during the birth of our baby, Olive. From the very beginning, she exuded a level of sweetness and caring that immediately put us at ease. Her timely responses to our questions and concerns made the entire journey smoother and more enjoyable.

Claire demonstrated an impressive knowledge of birthing practices and was instrumental in helping us create an amazing birth plan tailored to our preferences. Her expertise shone through as she guided us through the process, ensuring we were well-informed and confident in our decisions.

During the delivery (which happened a month earlier than expected), Claire was a true rockstar! Her calming presence and genuine support made the experience far more manageable. She anticipated our needs and offered encouragement at just the right moments. It was evident that she truly cared about our well-being.

The post-birth follow-up was nothing short of exceptional. Claire continued to show her dedication by checking in on us and providing valuable advice and assistance. We were especially touched by her culinary skills when she brought over a delicious, nourishing meal, homemade lactation tea and a rosewater bath mix. It made the postpartum period so much more enjoyable, allowing us to focus on our new family dynamic.

In summary, Claire is not just a doula; she is a compassionate, knowledgeable, and caring individual who goes above and beyond to support families during the incredible journey of childbirth. We highly recommend her to anyone seeking an exceptional doula experience. Thank you, Claire, for being a crucial part of our memorable birthing journey!

We invited Claire to be a part of the birth of our first child, after meeting with her and feeling such a warm, caring and nurturing energy. We got to know her better over two prenatal visits and she helped prep us for birth through creating a comprehensive birth plan and walking us through birthing positions and other elements of what to expect. She was available by phone while I was in pre and early labor and helped us understand what was coming next and how to cope with symptoms as they arose. On the night of our daughter’s birth she was an amazing source of strength and encouragement for both me and my husband. She was spot on with her assessment of my progression through labor and helped us at ever turn to make decisions that would ultimately lead to the exact labor and birth I had hoped to have. After our daughter was born, Claire brought us nourishing and delicious food, and a care package to help with continued healing. We are so grateful to have been able to work with with Claire and will certainly ask her to be available for our next child, if we are so lucky.

My husband and I hired Claire as our birth doula for the birth of our daughter. Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances we didn't get to have her actually attend our birth. She did arrive after the fast and unexpected birth of our daughter and debriefed everything with us and offered alternative services and meals in place of not being able to attend the birth. Throughout all our meetings leading up to the birth we felt heard and supported in all aspects of what we were looking for in the birth process. We were educated and informed on parts of the birth process that we didn't even know we could consider. Claire is kind, thoughtful, and we would absolutely recommend her.

Words cannot express how grateful I am to have had Claire as my birth doula. She went above and beyond to make sure I was heard and supported throughout my 45 hour long labor and delivery. My labor started at home as I was intending on having a home birth, but after my water being broken for almost 24 hours I made the choice to transfer to the hospital. Claire stayed behind until I could have someone relieve her to watch our 4yr old, and then met us at the hospital. She was an advocate for me the entire time I labored and delivered at the hospital. She knew how badly I wanted a VBAC and she made sure the hospital staff were on board and helped to make that happen. I would 100% hire Claire again if we have another baby and I will recommend her to anyone searching for a doula.
