Testimonial for Ashley Sorensen
Ashley was an absolutely incredible doula throughout my entire pregnancy, labor, and birth. From the beginning, she was supportive, attentive, and intentional about getting to know me and my partner. She helped us create a birth plan that reflected our values and made sure we felt informed and empowered at every stage. By the time labor began, it truly felt like we had a trusted family member by our side.
My labor ended up being very long and intense—our baby was posterior and I had an unmedicated water birth at a birth center. Ashley never left our side. She brought so many tools that made all the difference: heat packs, a TENS unit, counter pressure, and more. She intuitively knew what to do and when to do it, and her calm, grounded presence helped me stay focused and strong.
My partner still jokes that he couldn’t have done it without Ashley—and honestly, I agree. She supported him just as much as she supported me, helping him feel confident and capable throughout the whole experience.
Ashley made our birth experience not only manageable, but truly beautiful and memorable. We are so incredibly grateful for her and would recommend her to absolutely anyone. She’s more than a doula—she’s a true gift.
