Having dear Ella as our doula was an incredible blessing during our birthing journey. Her caring and compassionate personality made us feel supported and understood from the very beginning. She went above and beyond to provide us with the best emotional support, explaining all our birth options thoroughly and clearly. Her responsibility and advocacy for us were evident in every decision and interaction.

During critical moments, such as the diagnosis of a subchorionic hemorrhage, the long labor and delivery process, and the vacuum-assisted birth, Ella maintained her composure and provided the calm and reassurance we needed. She respected our religious beliefs throughout the process, ensuring we felt comfortable and respected.

Ella was very knowledgeable and if she didn’t have enough information on a particular topic, she would seek answers through the appropriate sources and mentors. She consistently strives to stay informed with the latest and best birthing practices, which gave us great confidence in her support.

We also want to note that Ella is fully bilingual in Spanish, our mother tongue! She demonstrated exceptional cultural competence and sensitivity, which was invaluable to us. Her dedication, professionalism, and heartfelt care made all the difference in our birthing experience. We highly recommend Ella for being such a warm and caring Doula. We are immensely grateful for her presence and support.

Ella was such a thoughtful and caring Doula . She would research and do what she could to help ease my nerves from having a breech baby. She always helped advocate for me when I was too nervous to even h the ink of what to ask my doctors.  Ella is very sweet and her calming personality helped my anxiety during labor. Whenever I had no idea what else to do she had great suggestions to cope with pain. Very thankful to Ella for making me feel so comfortable and empowered to have such a wonderful natural birth I desired.
