YES, YES and YES! I’m soo happy that I met Olena! She is amazing! Very caring and thoughtful.  I don’t know how other client’s feel, but for me she felt as if she is family! It felt as if my mom, sister (that I don’t have), and best friend was there guiding me through the process. It was my first pregnancy, so my husband and I really didn’t know what to expect, but I had this beautiful picture in my head of how I’m gonna do it and what will happen. I wanted to give the birth in the birthing center and that’s why I was considering to have a doula, but when the time came everything went out of the plan and I really don’t know what I/we would do without her!
We really would be lost! She was our core! The person who we could rely on in the craziness of labor!
I can’t recommend her more! Birth center or hospital- YOU NEED HER!

From the moment I decided to choose Olena, I have never regretted it.

From the very beginning, Olena was incredibly attentive and supportive. Her two prenatal visits were incredibly helpful. She clearly explained what to expect during labor and helped me prepare for the upcoming challenges both mentally and physically. She demonstrated valuable pelvic floor exercises that gave me confidence and preparedness for my future labor.

Throughout my entire labor, she was very responsive to my needs and ensured that my wishes and comfort were a priority. She worked closely and communicated effectively with the nurses and midwife, and her support was especially crucial when the question of a C-section arose. She confidently advocated for my preferences and helped my voice be heard.

When the decision was finally made for a C-section, her support never wavered. Both my husband and I felt reassured by her steady presence in the operating room. One of the most meaningful moments for me came right after the birth of my son, when my husband needed to be with him and all the doctors were busy. I cannot forget the comfort of her hands on my face while I was getting stitches. It was exactly what I needed to feel safe and cared for.

After the labor, she continued to provide me with comprehensive support. She taught me how to sit and breastfeed correctly, guided me through every step, and frequently checked in to make sure I was doing well. I truly valued her knowledge and genuine care, and she went above and beyond, sharing an incredibly helpful list of tips for newborn care, postpartum recovery, and breastfeeding.

Having Olena as our doula has been incredibly beneficial for both me and my husband. Her experience and unwavering support truly helped us through every step of this life-changing moment, and if my husband and I decide to have a second child, I know who I will choose as my doula.

Hi this is Khatira Hussaini

 

 

My doula was incredibly supportive throughout my entire birth experience. She stayed calm, listened to my needs, and helped me feel confident and safe. Her presence made a huge difference, and I truly appreciated her guidance.

My doula provided exceptional support before, during, and after labor. She explained things clearly, helped me stay calm, and always checked in on my comfort. She created a safe, positive environment and made the experience much easier for me.

I’m incredibly grateful I found you — especially at a time when I was unsure if hiring a doula was something I truly needed. I felt comfortable with my OB, and the nurses were wonderful, so part of me wondered if a doula would add anything more. But choosing you turned out to be the thing I didn’t know I needed — until I did.

You helped my partner become exactly the support person I needed. He wanted so much to be present and involved, but didn’t know how to help in the moment. You bridged that gap with such calm and clarity, guiding him to be my advocate with confidence and purpose.

When we arrived at the hospital and I was told I wasn’t ready to be admitted, my instincts told me otherwise. I knew going home wasn’t the right move. You helped me stay grounded and ask the right questions — and because of that, I stayed just long enough for labor to progress and be admitted in time. I honestly don’t know how that would’ve gone without you. I may have ended up in much more distress if I’d left the hospital.

When the pain intensified and I decided to get an epidural, you met me with zero judgment — only reassurance and support. You reminded me that I had already done so much on my own, and that using an epidural wasn’t a failure, but a powerful tool. I felt fully in charge of my choice, and that empowerment meant everything.

when the nurses suggested Pitocin, you gently encouraged me to ask more questions. That moment of pause revealed that it was more about logistics than my actual needs — and sure enough, labor picked up naturally shortly after. Without you, I might not have had the strength to advocate for myself in that moment.

To anyone considering a doula, my advice is simple: do it. It’s an investment not just in your birth, but in your sense of agency, support, and peace. My birth was a 10/10 experience.

We feel so incredibly lucky to have had Olena as our doula. From the very beginning, she was warm, supportive, and deeply knowledgeable — the kind of presence that immediately puts you at ease. Even though this was our second birth, we learned so much from her. She shared valuable information, practical tools, and emotional support that made a real difference in our experience.

What really stood out was how honest and straightforward Olena is — she tells it like it is in the most compassionate and empowering way. We always felt seen, heard, and never judged. She consistently went above and beyond for us, never hesitating to say “yes” when we asked for extra help or guidance.

One of the most meaningful things she did was help organize a Mother’s Blessing ceremony — a beautiful and powerful highlight of my pregnancy that I will always cherish.

Olena also provided thoughtful and reliable postpartum support. She stayed with me one night at the hospital, which was such a comfort. She brought nourishing bone broth and truly showed up for us in the most caring, present, and generous way. She was always there when we needed her.

We are beyond grateful for Olena and cannot imagine this journey without her. Highly recommend!!

Olena was amazing.   Having her help and guidance made the birth of our child super easy.   She was very proactive and always in front of what needed to be done, and her follow-through was amazing.

Thank you so much Olena!  I highly recommend Olena and her Services.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Olena as my doula. She is incredibly open-hearted, resourceful, kind, and genuinely dedicated to supporting you every step of the way. Olena provided me with invaluable advice on preparing my body for labor, including dietary recommendations and exercises to encourage a natural delivery. She remained attentive and supportive both before and after my scheduled delivery. Although I only connected with her shortly before labor, I will undoubtedly choose her to be by my side for the next birth. Olena is truly a remarkable doula, and I can't recommend her highly enough!
