I had the pleasure of having Tameka by my side for two of my births, and I truly can’t imagine those experiences without her.

My first birth was my first everything, so her support was very much needed. I don’t remember this myself, but apparently I was a little aggressive ??, at one point I had a tight grip very close to her neck. Despite that, she stayed calm, positive, and completely focused on me, which was exactly what I needed as a first-time mom.

I loved how knowledgeable she was about the birthing process, hospital policies, placenta options, and all the little details I didn’t even know to ask about. Having her there took so much mental load off me.

My most recent birth was more stressful. My blood pressure was running high, and while I didn’t want an induction, Tameka did an amazing job balancing respect for my wants while also educating me on the risks and reminding me to consider the doctors’ recommendations, without ever making me feel unheard or pressured. Which can be difficult to do.

She also helped document important details during the birth, times, things the doctor said, baby’s weight, etc. With this being my fourth child and concerns around my health and baby’s safety, I appreciated her capturing those moments when I couldn’t.

She was never squeamish, jumped right in when needed (yes, poop and all ??), and most importantly, she loudly advocated for me. Birth can feel overwhelming and baby-focused (even Mom's focus is on baby), so having someone consistently focused on me and my needs was incredibly refreshing.

Because this pregnancy was scarier health-wise, her regular check-ins, encouragement, and even attending appointments with me for extra support meant everything. Hands down, I would recommend Tameka to any mom seeking pregnancy, birth, or postpartum support.

Tameka assisted me with two births. One was over the phone due to how quickly the baby came (he was born in the car). The other was an induction. She stayed up all night to monitor me as they gave me pitocin. She was super supportive during my labor process and helped me remember to breathe and relax. I was ready for the labor to be over and done and she was able to keep me calm and centered. During the car birth (years earlier) she did the same thing. She reminded me to breathe and provided support. It was a scary moment and she was such a help once we made it to the hospital with the new baby in my arms lol. I recommend her services 100%. You won't find a better calmer doula.

Although I was not able to experience a natural birthing process as I wanted to, Tameka was still right by my side along the way. She gave sound advice, was there to answer any questions I had, and if she didn't know the answer at that time she got back with me promptly. I appreciated her over all presence. Even though this was my second pregnancy I was still very scared and having her around kept me calm and relaxed knowing I had someone there who would speak for me if I could not. The day of my c-section she beat my husband and I to the hospital! ?? I was absolutely elated and it brought a smile to my face knowing she was willing and ready. I loved having her with me along the way and I will always recommend her services. ??
