I cannot recommend Marie highly enough. After three previous c-sections (without a doula), I was determined to achieve a successful VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean), especially since many doctors take a "once a c-section, always a c-section" approach. Having Marie by my side put me at complete ease.

Marie was incredibly honest that I would have been her first VBAC, and she immediately showed her dedication by taking the time to learn the extra precautions needed. I shared with her the trauma from my prior deliveries—where providers rushed to surgery rather than allowing time to reposition, and where I was treated with disrespect.

Marie supported my goal to avoid unnecessary interventions. She took the time to review what she could do to help voice my concerns and ensure I had time to process decisions. Throughout the 62 hours of hospital labor, she was an unwavering advocate. When hospital staff came in rushing about the baby's heart rate, Marie helped me change positions, and the issue resolved immediately. When a night surgeon questioned why I wanted more children instead of opting for a c-section, Marie kept me grounded and focused.

Though a 62-hour labor wasn't what we planned for, Marie refused to leave my side despite being tired. Thanks to her support, I had a successful vaginal delivery after three c-sections, defying the odds. If Marie hadn't been in my corner, I don't think I could have trusted myself to withstand the pressure for 60 hours. I am forever grateful for her dedication and care. 

Marie truly shines when helping women through their most vulnerable situations. Her empathetic nature and unwavering advocacy make her an exceptional doula.

Marie was amazing! Throughout the whole process of working with her - before, during & after birth - she was reliable, kind, clear in her communication, prepared, thoughtful, and intentional. It’s clear she has a real passion for this work and takes Her job as a Birth Worker very seriously. She goes the extra mile to make sure you have quality care with a lot of genuine heart. During the birth itself, she proactively helped us manage labor & pain with such ease & insight — I cannot imagine having gone through birth without her!

We were so blessed to find Marie in time for the birth of our third child. Her breadth of experience and natural empathy made me feel instantly comfortable. She has a very high EQ and is so well in tune with the needs of the mother and child during such an important time in our lives. She was a blessing for our family and I know she would be for yours as well!
