We truly could not have dreamt of a better Doula and person than Marina to help us through the end of our pregnancy and delivery with our first baby. We knew our daughter would need surgery immediately after birth and the extended hospitalization, and anxiety leading up to the birth was difficult in every way. Marina was beyond accommodating, meeting with us in the hospital (an already stressful environment) and helping make sure we were taken care of and advocating for us in the ways we most needed in those moments. Marina was a healing, grounding, loving and attentive doula, going above and beyond, helping care for our physical, mental, and emotional health leading up to and after the birth of our baby. We are forever grateful for her and her dedication.

Marina was incredibly helpful in preparing me for birth and during the process. When it came to my preferences she made sure I was educated and used evidence based resources. During my birth she helped me feel less overwhelmed when dealing with hospital staff and created a sacred and calming space for when my baby was coming. Highly recommend her, she’s amazing

As first-time parents, Marina was the lighthouse that guided us through the uncertainty and stress of our high-risk pregnancy. She took special care from the moment we started working with her to listen to our history, heartaches, and questions and use that information to provide specific guidance at each stage of our pregnancy. We'd recommend her as a doula to any expecting mother!
