Working with Danielle Dunning as my doula was one of the best decisions I made during my pregnancy and birth journey. From our first conversation, Danielle brought a calming, confident presence that immediately put me at ease. She was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and supportive every step of the way, from prenatal visits to labor and postpartum care.

During labor, Danielle was my anchor. Her encouragement, comfort techniques, and emotional support helped me stay grounded and empowered throughout the entire experience. She listened deeply, respected all my choices, and always knew exactly when to step in and when to give space.

Danielle’s care didn’t end at birth—she continued to check in, offer guidance, and make sure I felt supported as I transitioned into bring a mama of two. Her passion for what she does is undeniable, and her warmth and professionalism make her truly exceptional.

I’m forever grateful for Danielle’s presence during one of the most important times in my life. I couldn’t have asked for a better doula and friend.

I truly don’t have enough words to express how grateful I am for the support, compassion, and strength Dani brought into my life. From the very beginning, she made me feel seen, heard, and empowered. Whether it was answering my endless questions, helping me work through fears, or just being a calm and reassuring presence, she was exactly who I needed during such a vulnerable and life-changing time.

 

Her care went far beyond the physical—she nurtured my emotional well-being, honored my choices, and helped me trust my instincts as a mother. I felt safe and supported every step of the way, and that peace of mind is something I will carry with me forever.

 

I can’t imagine going through my pregnancy and birth experience without Dani by my side. She is a true gift, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, knowledgeable, and deeply compassionate doula. She didn’t just help bring my baby into the world—she helped bring me into motherhood.

Danielle has been exceptionally supportive throughout my pregnancy and beyond. She would regularly check in with me weekly, ensuring my well-being and providing assistance as required. Her unwavering support and helpfulness were incredibly uplifting. Whenever I had a question, particularly during my breastfeeding and pumping journey, she responded promptly and provided me with the necessary resources. I highly recommend her and would gladly seek her services as my doula again if necessary.
