Terry was with me for my third baby. I was very happy to have a vaginal birth. She also helped me make plans for my two boys. She came to visit me at my home and shared so many goodies with my family like toys, books, food. I am so happy to have found her as my doula. Anyone who wants a friend and doula should get in touch with Terry!

Terry worked diligently, intentionally and enthusiastically with us the entire time of my pregnancy, labor and first week of postpartum. She's gave us all the info we could possibly get to be prepared for becoming first-time parents. She gave us access to resources we needed, like our pack n play cribette that we've been using every day since my kid's birth. She never made us feel like she was in a rush or just wanted to get things over with. Thank you for what you do for all the parents out there, Terry!

Terry Wong was incredibly supportive and informative throughout my pregnancy. She gave me and my partner, Mook, confidence and knowledge that we never received from our doctors during virtual visits. Terry guided us through role-playing and practicing different scenarios we might encounter during delivery, which helped us stay calm and prepared. She taught us about medical interventions and alternatives, and we went over our birth plan in detail.

 

Most importantly, she helped us do the emotional groundwork—acknowledging that birth doesn’t always go as planned, but making sure we felt informed, empowered, and in control of our experience. During delivery, Terry was right by my side. I felt stronger with her on our team. We’re so grateful for her support and guidance. Truly a blessing.

Wonderful experience! I felt heard and seen, we talked about personal experience, the journey of breastfeeding and the importance of sanitzing/ caring for yourself and baby. I felt this experience reinforced my confidence as a first time mom and would recommend Terry Wong to any new moms or anyone involved in the breastfeeding journey.

 This class was so helpful, and it made me feel a lot  better about breastfeeding . Knowing I don't have to focus on stashing my milk , just more focused on latching and bonding with my baby. I enjoyed hearing people questions and Terry being able to respond easily with great fair honest answers, I would love to join another class and hear more about breast feeding 10/10!

Terry is such an amazing and engaging educator. Tonight's newborn feeding class was very informative and fun. We were able to interact with one another, ask questions and leave feeling more knowledgeable about breastfeeding!

A doula has been there during delivery of course out of gratitude you will send a message after months after cuz hey u remember them. Even to send a pic of the baby they help u deliver.
Service was nice because it's a job for them. And everything will be peachy, at that given time, even before leaving my reviews terry was like keep her posted and I can send pic of the baby if I like. At the time I felt so comfortable. Now coming to send greeting message and pictures of the baby. My message are been read and no reply like am now an animal. So basically they will act nice nice during the service and after your leave a review they forgot you exist not even to reply back to messages.

This review is long over due, but I am so grateful I came across Terry for my third pregnancy. My first two were over 11 & 7 years ago so this time felt brand new all over again with a lot of things different. From prior experience I now realized how important it is to have the right support during the most vulnerable time of pregnancy and giving birth. She was so helpful with navigating me through things & reminding me of stuff that needed to get done in timely manners, was even able to attend a prenatal appointment with me & most importantly she advocated my wants/needs discussed before birth on my behalf during active labor a time where in the past I was always too out of it from labor pains to think straight let alone make decisions. Having her as a doula made all the difference for me this time around and I highly recommend her to anybody considering it without a doubt she made this experience a much more positive and meaningful one for me.

Terry was an amazing doula and made my birthing experience comfortable and amazing. I couldn't have done it without her. She stayed with me through the night at the hospital offering knowledge on my situation helping me to ask the right questions. She was so hands on the entire time and I am forever grateful for her help and support throughout this life changing experience. I would recommend Terry to anyone who is looking for a supportive, encouraging, knowledgeable, kind and passionate doula. She is simply a gift from God for expecting moms.

Terry has been a very helpful person on our pregnancy journey. As first time parents, my husband and I came into this experience not even knowing the questions to ask, let alone being equipped with the answers. Terry was the person that made this process easy and navigable for us. 

Besides the "big knowledge", I appreciate the most Terry's tips and hacks on things we sometimes overlook, such as the types of bottle to pick, things to ask about my midwife at my routine visits, etc. 

For anyone that is looking for a trustworthy, reliable, and supportive guide in the birthing and postpartum process, I'd really recommend connecting with Terry!

We met Terry in our online EBB class and she was absolutely wonderful! Terry was very informative about a lot of the medical aspects of child birth/labor and made to sure add reality of what to expect. The class was very thorough and informal so we could chat/ask questions throughout. I felt so much more confident knowing which questions to ask my providers and understanding what to expect (as much as possible as a first time mom) throughout labor and delivery. If Terry lived closer to me, I would want her to be a part of my birth experience.

My experience was great. She was very caring. She was by my side when I needed her. She was major comfort during my delivery process. She was just great overall. I would highly recommend to her. Let me not forget, She is very understanding.

Terry was incredibly helpful and accommodating!  I reached out to her for help with car seat installation and left with a thorough understanding of how to keep baby safe.  She was patient, kind and knowledgeable.  Highly recommend.

Terry was a huge help to my wife and I as first time parents. The process of pregnancy and childbirth can be very overwhelming, but Terry managed to alert us to things we didn't know or hadn't prepared for without making us feel ashamed or self conscious. During childbirth, Terry was very helpful in helping us advocate for ourselves and stick to our birth plan, as well as give us an honest pro/con of when maybe it made sense for plans to deviate. We're so grateful for her for helping us through this process, and our healthy baby boy is probably grateful as well! Thanks Terry

Terry was great from the very start! Warm and open to what I envisioned for my birth experience and gave me tools to help me with that, she was also fantastic with my husband and mom as a support during my labour and delivery … if we have another child I’d definitely want her around again!

Terry was recommended by name by my gynecologist. She was quick to respond to communications and worked with me and my insurance company to try to establish coverage. Though we didn't end up using a doula, Terry had a friendly yet confident vibe that made me feel like I could trust her to take care of me.

I had the incredible pleasure of working with Terry during my pregnancy and I can't recommend her enough! Even though I met Terry towards the end of my pregnancy, she made me feel supported, heard, and confident in the short amount of time I had until giving birth. Her calm and reassuring presence helped ease any anxiety I had and her knowledge about childbirth and postpartum care was invaluable. After the birth, Terry continued to check in on me, offering postpartum care and advice that helped me transition into new motherhood. Her warmth, expertise, and genuine care made her a vital part of my journey.

Terry was amazing to work with! Very attentive and comforting (even when I was not). I've had a difficult postpartum experience and she has reached out occasionally even after our time was completed together. Although I was matched with Terry kind of late in my pregnancy, I was super grateful for her support and encouragement during those short weeks. I opted for virtual support since I was only allowed one person in my delivery room and two people in my recovery room (naturally I wanted my husband and mom there). Terry assured me she would still be on call for me (and she was!) any questions or concerns I've had, she was only a text a way. I am super grateful for the continued support.

Terry was great. During our first meeting she even helped us install the car seat. She taught me a bunch of techniques to get through contractions and I was able to successfully have an unmedicated birth.

Terry Wong is an Amazing Childbirth Educator!

My wife and I took Terry Wong’s birthing class, and it was an incredibly valuable experience. We learned so much about the entire labor and delivery process, and I feel so much more prepared because of her guidance.

Terry is kind, compassionate, and thoughtful in the way she teaches. She not only helped us understand what to expect but also made sure we knew our rights and how to advocate for ourselves during birth. One of the things I appreciated most was how she taught me all the ways I can support my wife during labor. I now feel much more confident in my role, knowing how to be there for her in the best way possible.

Her support and knowledge made such a difference for us, and I’m really grateful for everything she shared. If you’re expecting and looking for a childbirth educator who will empower and support you, I highly recommend working with Terry!

Alanna

I cannot recommend Terry Wong enough! As my childbirth educator and birth support professional, she provided invaluable knowledge, guidance, and encouragement throughout my pregnancy journey.

Terry helped me understand the many choices I would have in the hospital, empowering me to make informed decisions for myself and my baby. She taught me how to advocate for my needs, communicate effectively with my care team, and navigate any challenges that might arise during labor and delivery. Having this knowledge made me feel so much more confident and prepared going into birth.

One of the most helpful aspects of her support was the hands-on learning during her virtual workshops. She demonstrated labor positioning and massage techniques, giving both me and my partner personalized feedback. This made a huge difference in helping us feel ready to manage labor as a team. Even in a virtual setting, Terry’s warmth and expertise created a safe and nurturing space where we felt truly supported.

If you’re looking for someone who will educate, empower, and support you with kindness and professionalism, I highly recommend working with Terry Wong. She is an incredible resource and a truly compassionate presence in the birth space!

I can’t say enough good things about Terry. From the moment we met her, she brought such a calm, reassuring presence to the whole process. As a first-time dad, I had no idea what to expect, but she made me feel prepared, involved, and, most importantly, useful.

She knew exactly what my wife needed at every moment—whether it was pain management techniques, encouragement, or just adjusting the atmosphere to keep things calm. She also helped me support my wife in ways I wouldn’t have known to do on my own. I never felt like a bystander in the process, and that meant everything.

After our home birth, Terry continued to check in, offering advice and support that made those first few weeks so much easier. Having her as part of our birth experience was one of the best decisions we made.

Zahira

I cannot express how grateful we are for the amazing support we received from Terry. From the moment we met, she brought such a calming and reassuring presence to our birthing experience. She was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and compassionate throughout the entire process.

During labor, Terry was there every step of the way, offering encouragement and different techniques to ease my pain. She truly listened to our needs and respected our homebirth plan while providing invaluable guidance when we needed it most.

Her postnatal care was just as exceptional. She continued to check in on us, offering helpful tips and emotional support as we adjusted to life with our new baby. It felt like having a close friend by our side, who also happened to be an expert in childbirth and newborn care!

We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we wholeheartedly recommend Terry to anyone looking for a caring, professional, and truly wonderful doula. Thank you for making our birthing journey so special!
