Client Testimonials for Heathir Brown

Tara Jecklin

Heathir was very helpful leading up to the birth of our baby. She provided knowledgeable advice and helped me prepare for discussions that I had with my doctor. I ended up having a planned c-section, but Heathir still came to the hospital for support. She was very reliable and it was a positive experience having her as our doula.

Emily Reed

Heathir Brown was my doula for the birth of my first child in 2012. She was wonderfully supportive and helped both my partner and I prepare for childbirth with helpful coaching and information. She helped us create a birth plan and communicate our expectations and hopes for the experience of childbirth. When I went in to labor, Heathir was attentive and a source of comfort and strenth during the long hours leading up to the delivery. She helped me to have the wonderul, positive experience that I had hoped for. Heathir was amazing to work with and I highly recommend her as a doula for anyone seeking a supportive advocate for the experience of giving birth.

Heathir was the perfect doula fit for our family. She was extremely caring, supportive, and knowledgable. She helped instill in me the confidence I needed before and during birth. She came with many tools to help me during the uncomfortable times in my pregnancy and helped me write and follow a birthing plan. My husband and I will be forever grateful to Heathir for helping us to deliver a big, healthy baby boy! I rate her 11 out of 10 stars!
