I hired Michaela as a doula, and it was 100% worth it! As a first-time mom, she helped me sooo much deliver unmedicated! She motivated me and stayed patient with me throughout the entire process. She was very positive and kind before the birth, during the birth, and after the birth! She is always willing to help, even postpartum! I don't think I could've gotten a better doula than Michaela! If you're looking for an amazing doula, please hire her! She's the best!

Having Michaela as my doula made my first time giving birth absolutely perfect. I could not imagine going through labor without her help and support. I knew that I wanted to push laying on my side and I could tell that the nurse was not in favor of that position and wanted me to push on my back. Michaela advocated for me and I was able to deliver on my side! I also had an epidural for my labor and I was worried that it would limit my options for labor positions. She helped me with getting into different side lying positions with a peanut ball to still help my labor progress. She was a huge help getting through my birth. She also helped encourage me when it came time for pushing and that encouragement gave me the strength to keep going when I was getting tired. During postpartum, she helped with all of my questions and helped me a lot with my feelings I was dealing with. She brought soup over and made visits to check in on us which was a huge help. During my pregnancy, she was also a huge help. She was always a text, email, or call away when I had questions. She provided me with lots of helpful resources when I had questions. If I ever have another baby down the road, I plan on having her as my doula again because of how amazing she was.
