We are beyond grateful to have had Bethany as our doula throughout our first pregnancy and postpartum journey. From the beginning, she brought a beautiful balance of knowledge, compassion, and cultural awareness into our experience.
As a Filipino family, it meant so much to us that Bethany honored and valued our ancestral heritage in her care. She made space for traditions, cultural practices, and generational wisdom in a way that felt deeply respectful and affirming, making our journey feel more grounded and meaningful.
One of the things we appreciated most was her incredible patience, calmness, and grounding energy. During overwhelming moments, she had a way of centering us and bringing peace into the space. Her presence alone was reassuring.
Bethany was also extremely flexible and understanding with our ever-changing schedules, always meeting us with grace and genuine care. No matter how hectic things became, she consistently showed up for us with heart.
We loved her knowledge around nourishing meal and drink preparation throughout my pregnancy. Her thoughtful recipes and recommendations helped me feel supported physically and emotionally.
Her incorporation of sound bowl therapy and guided meditative yoga for both my partner and me was another beautiful part of her care. These sessions created space for deep relaxation, emotional release, and meaningful connection. We cherished those moments of stillness and bonding with each other and our baby.
We’re especially thankful we were connected to her through one of our cousins—it truly feels like a blessing that our paths crossed. Having someone we trusted so deeply during such a vulnerable season made all the difference.
We are forever grateful for the role Bethany played in supporting our family and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking compassionate, culturally conscious, and dependable doula care.
