My most special moment with the perfect person by my side. Monita was literally my angel. I had been in an induced labor for almost 48 hours with my first child. I couldn't have done it without her. Although my daughters father was present it was his first time as well and we weren't in the best of terms. Monita kept the room at peace held my hand and softly but securely guided me through delivering my beautiful daughter. I ran into some complications delivering my after birth were I hemorrhaged and became inconscience. My daughter's father gained a new appreciation and respect watching her advocate and assure that I got the care that I needed immediately. I'll forever be thankful and grateful for Monita.

My experience with Monita was ideal.
I started with her when I turned 32 Weeks. Monita showed and encouraged different exercises and stretching positions for me and my partner.

Monita gave my partner things to do, signs to look for, how to be there for me when in need. I truly believe if you use the information provided your experience is more effective.

My delivery was really fast but Monita came right in and was hands on. She reminded me to breathe, gave encouragement and she also had a fan for me (such a bonus).

Monita assist me also in my postpartum room which was a big deal because you never know how much support you need until you’re in that position. She also captured beautiful pic of the entire process .

I recommend a doula to all moms.

My experience with Monita was overall GREAT! I don't know if I could've done it without her beings though I had an all natural birth she was there from the time I went into labor until I was settled and comfortable with her leaving! She helped me push, breath and much more! She helped me with pre labor while doing certain techniques and massages also helping me prepare for labor and advocating for myself during labor. Her energy itself was great never was dull not one moment out of the many hours I was in labor, very active! Such a sweet soul! I very much recommend her
