I cannot say enough amazing things about Esther Karpilow! She was truly incredible, supportive, caring, and reassuring throughout my entire experience. She made me feel heard, comfortable, and supported every step of the way. Her encouragement and presence meant so much to me, and I am beyond grateful to have had her by my side. I highly recommend Esther to any expecting mom—she is truly amazing! ??

She is beyond five stars ????????????????????

Working with Esther as my doula was the best. From the beginning, she made me feel supported, informed, and cared for. She provided so much helpful information before labor, helping me understand what to expect and making me feel more prepared and confident going into my delivery at Valley Presbyterian Hospital. This was my first birth and I was terrified! 

Esther took the time to video chat with me postpartum to check in, answer my questions, and see how I was doing both physically and emotionally.

She’s compassionate, knowledgeable, and truly invested in the families she works with. I’m grateful for her support and would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a doula!

I am so happy that I found Esther to support me during a very big transition time that I needed the help so greatly. Her and I really connected and she was really good at knowing how to step in and do things that needed to be done around the house to help me relax and keep my home orderly. I hired her as a postpartum Doula, but I will continue to use her services in the future if needed. She is great with kids and I trust her and I really enjoy having her around. I highly recommend her if you need any support she is a really good resource and has great energy.
