From the very first conversation, Chinelo made me feel supported, heard, and uplifted. Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum are such intimate and life-changing experiences, and having her by my side was empowering!
Throughout my pregnancy, she was my go-to for reassurance and wisdom. Whether I had a question at 2 AM or needed someone to help me navigate what concerns were coming up, she was always there—patient, kind, and full of knowledge. She understood exactly the support I needed, without ever making me feel judged or overwhelmed.
during labor, Chinelo stayed by my side, offering encouragement, physical support, anticipating my needs, and helping me breathe through contractions and rest. Her presence was steady, her touch reassuring, and her words filled me with the confidence to push forward and advocate for myself when I needed to. The moment my baby arrived, she helped me settle into skin-to-skin bonding and assisted with latching, making sure my little one and I started off on the right foot.
Chinelo continued to show up with care postpartum , providing me with breastfeeding wisdom, reassurance, and the kind of gentle support that made all the difference. From her warm, nourishing meals to the heartfelt conversations that reminded me I wasn’t alone!
Chinelo is more than just a doula—she is someone who truly pours her heart into the families she supports. Her kindness, expertise, and unwavering presence changed my journey for the better, and I can’t recommend her enough!!!
