I cannot say enough wonderful things about Siedah Israel. From the very beginning, she was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and trustworthy, which immediately put me at ease. She truly goes above and beyond for her clients—never making you feel like “just another appointment,” but instead offering genuine care, patience, and support every step of the way. It’s clear that this isn’t just a job for her; she sincerely loves what she does, and that passion shows in the way she advocates, reassures, and shows up wholeheartedly. Her presence made such a meaningful difference in my experience, and I am so grateful to have had her by my side. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a doula who is both deeply compassionate and exceptionally professional.

I cannot recommend Siedah enough. I was TERRIFIED of delivering my baby. I have a lot of birth trauma, both from a traumatic vaginal delivery as well as a traumatic c section. But I wanted to try for a VBAC and take my power back, but my anxiety was holding me back.

Siedah was my ROCK. Both during my pregnancy and during labor/delivery. She is full of knowledge, love, compassion. Never judged, always the best listener, and her check ins seriously brought me so much peace.

When induction day came, I was terrified. As my contractions got intense, Siedah kept me focused and reminded me of my power. She never judged me when I lost focus and always brought me back to center and respected and supported my decisions. I truly don't think I would have gotten my VBAC without her. Especially with my 10lbs 2oz chunker!

If you need a doula, you can't top Siedah.

Siedah is the best!!!! I would recommend her to everyone and will definitely have her in my corner if I were to have another baby. She loves what she do. She made sure she guided me and also educated me on the information she provided to us. She has a loving, calm sweet spirit. We really appreciate her! Thanks Siedah ????

Would absolutely hire Siedah again and again! I was super nervous about giving birth (FTM) and she met with me several times before the birth to get to know me, better understand my desires, and connect with me better. During the birth, she utilized a lot of calming, massage skills and holistic approaches to help better transition my birth and calm my body. She is a huge advocate for care, and will not be able to advocate for your needs or pause a room. Our baby went breech during my own birth, and she had many exercises to try to un-breech him naturally. At the end of the day, I chose for an elective c-section because at that point, that is what I wanted, but Siedah was committed to any decision I desired, even if it were to opt for flipping the baby. Her attunement to me allowed me to check in on my desires and needs, and allowed me to think logically and calmly throughout the ordeal.
