This is my second birth experience with having Diana as my doula. I couldn’t have asked for a better doula, she was very attentive to my needs before, during and after birth. I had prodromal labor with my second. She would check on me every day, and never made me feel like a burden for reaching out. The night I went into labor, I called her at 2:30 in the morning and she was wide awake and ready to meet us at the hospital. After we arrived, she got straight to work to make me feel some relief. She started with counter pressure on my back (I normally have back labor), and also taught me how to breathe during contractions. She then showed me different positions that brought relief and helped me dilate!

Overall I am so happy with my experience with Diana, she stayed by my side the whole time and never once made me feel like I was going through it alone. She also provided postpartum meals and homemade broth! That just shows how much she cares.

I truly can’t recommend her enough she definitely has the heart and passion for everyone around her.

I am beyond grateful for Diana and the incredible support she provided during one of the most important moments of our lives. While laboring at The Birthing Inn, her calming presence and vast knowledge brought so much peace to both me and my husband. She guided us with gentle cues, suggested comforting positions, and always reminded me to stay hydrated and nourished, which made such a difference.

When things didn’t go as planned and we had to transfer to the hospital, Diana never left my side and continued to assist as I labored through the night at Tacoma General. Her unwavering support and reassuring guidance through the entire process were a true blessing.

But her care didn’t stop there. Diana visited us postpartum to check on both me and our baby, bringing a meal that warmed our hearts and nourished our family. Her kindness and dedication made our journey into parenthood so much smoother, and we’ll always hold her in a special place in our hearts.

April 27th our sweet baby boy came into the world, August kuzubov, 6 pounds 7 ounces.

We're so grateful for all the support we got especially for the best dula ever. I wouldn't have been able to go through this without her! The support she gave me and my husband was so awesome. I feel so blessed that she was able to sooth me and comfort me by massaging my back and being by my side every moment I needed her. She was a guide for my husband to what he should also do to help with my labor. Even when complications came and we had to be transferred to the hospital, she came with us even though it's been almost 2 restless days and she has her own kids at home, but I remember her saying that she will stay till our baby is here and she sees him. 
I can't imagine birth without Diana's help. She was the biggest blessing to our family and we will forever be grateful for her support. I recommend Diana for any pregnant mama, and am hoping to have her by my side again in the future. 
We love you Diana. 
-the Kuzubov family

Diana took such good care of us. She was dedicated, knowledgeable, communicable and caring. Diana was such a joy to be around: from our initial meeting to our post delivery follow up. She handled herself perfectly during birth and her calmness helped during delivery. I loved that she checked up on me constantly during pregnancy and had a lot of great tips and insight. She listened to my needs and was prepared with extra things that would have help delivery. I am so happy that she was part of our birth team and it is such a blessing to know her. We will definitely have her attend a future birth. We highly recommend Diana!!

With great pleasure I write this testimonial about my doula Diana. From the moment she stepped into my home during my intense contractions, she immediately assessed my situation and quickly detected that I am running low on energy. She created a relaxing spa like atmosphere in the room and made sure I was comfortable. Diana also made sure I was staying hydrated and had something to eat. With my permission, she was able to do counter pressure through contractions and suggest certain labor positions to help labor progress. Her instincts never failed me. Diana was also my advocate and spoke up for me when I couldn't. When I was at my weakest, she cheered me on with encouraging affirmations. She was my mental and physical coach through labor. I will be forever grateful for her gentle love and care towards me. There's not a chance I could have done it without her!

Diana was amazing from our first meet and greet to my hospital transfer because of baby's complications. She stayed by my side, making my labor as smooth as possible. She set up the room beautifully and was very on top of reminding me to relax and speaking affirmations over me. Diana is very sweet, calm and inviting, I felt safe in her care. My husband also mentioned that going with Diana was the best decision we made, due to him being a first time dad and he loved watching and learning how to help me through the labor process. He said he would've been so lost if she wasn't there. Thank you Diana for being the best doula out there!

We highly recommend having a doula at your birth! Especially Diana! She was our physical and emotional support. She encouraged me to be strong through it all and made me comfortable. Through the hardest moments Diana would say “this is one step closer to meeting your little boy” and that stuck with me until the moment it finally happened. She worked very well with my husband, guided him when needed. My husband was assured knowing that Diana was able to tend to my needs through every step. She fulfilled all my wishes, there was no doubt or worry. My birth went so smoothly and just as I dreamed it would go. She was able to witness our greatest blessing being born into this world! Thank you for being such a special person in our lives. Couldn’t recommend her enough!!
