My husband and I are grateful for Ellen's support throughout my pregnancy, birth of our baby, and beyond. From the very beginning, Ellen was not only kind, curious, and helpful, but also passionate and knowledgeable. She took the time to understand my goals and vision and provided tools, advice, and encouragement, ensuring we felt confident and supported.

 

Ellen was great at maintaining regular, proactive communication with both my husband and me, which helped ease anxieties and answer questions we had.

 Ellen arrived promptly at the hospital when the day came, and she was a calming, positive presence, and worked seamlessly with the nurses and doctors, advocating for my wishes while remaining flexible and responsive.

 

Thanks to Ellen, I felt empowered, knowing we had someone by our side who was not only knowledgeable but also genuinely cared about our experience. Ellen worked to ensure I had a positive birth experience in line with my vision as much as safely possible. We highly recommend Ellen to anyone seeking a birth doula who is not only knowledgeable and professional, but also warm and supportive!

Ellen cared for our son several nights a week during his first two months as an overnight nurse. She is incredibly kind and nurturing, and our baby adored her. Ellen was always punctual, no matter the circumstances, including extreme weather. She quickly became an essential part of our nightly routine, and nothing brought me more comfort than knowing she was there, providing our baby with so much love and care.

Ellen was my doula and I can’t say enough good things about her! She is the most caring and knowledgeable person to take care of you. She was always available to answer mine and husband’s questions/phone calls, always providing information for each stage of my pregnancy. Every time I had a question/concern I would reach her first and she would quickly respond. She made my pregnancy and labor way smoother. She provided all the info I needed about diet, exercises, ways to feel comfortable or less stress during labor, explaining detailed all the options I had and each moment of labor what was coming next. I felt secure and comfortable in all the moments because of her.

Hiring Ellen as a night doula was the best decision I made for my postpartum recovery. From our initial interaction over the phone to meeting in person our communication was always pleasant and seamless. I instantly felt comfortable and confident that Ellen would be a perfect fit to help with my newborn. Ellen continued to stay in contact during my pregnancy and provided support. When the baby was born Ellen was always early and prompt at our home. Ellen was very warm and loving with the baby and respected any plans and directions I provided. It put me at ease to know my new born baby was being well taken care of while I was able to rest and recover at nights.

Ellen is oustanding and we would 1000% recommend her. I had a really difficult delivery and Ellen’s services were gifted to us by some friends. We loved her so much we extended for another 2 months. She was professional, thoughtful, and incredibly caring with our newborn. She went above and beyond in offering us great advice, support, and helping us navigate a challenging first couple of weeks. We miss her!
