We had Jill and Sierra as our doulas and I'm so grateful for all of their amazing support! I had a tough pregnancy, which included fatigue, hormonal ups and downs, back pain, and lots of false labor. They helped keep me positive and gave me lots of useful tips for managing my discomfort. Jill is especially knowledgable about natural remedies and her tips were invaluable. I had the pleasure of working with Jill for the birth of our daughter and Karla (as a backup) for one of my false labors and both experiences were great. Karla is an incredible doula also and had so many wonderful mantras, positions, and wonderful ways to think about the contractions/rushes that really helped. She was also a GREAT advocate in the L&D section of the hospital for my early false labor and helped me avoid an IV and being kept longer than necessary once it became clear I wasn't actually in labor.
My actual birth was at the Brooklyn Birthing Center and Jill worked seamlessly with the midwives and my partner to support a great complication free birth and the hours postpartum while we processed and checked out. Jill and Sierra both provided excellent phone support in between appointments as well.
Would recommend enthusiastically and without reservation!
