Testimonial for The Birth Collective | doula, photo, education
When we started looking for a doula, The Birth Collective was recommended to us over and over again. After our experience with them, I can see why! Austin, Bree, and Sarah are all so wonderful. They were kind, warm, friendly, helpful, and encouraging from the moment we met them. During my pregnancy they were always willing to answer any questions I had or talk me through any concerns, and they were responsive and available whenever I needed them. I ended up going almost a week past my due date and experienced a couple "false starts" to my labor, and they were patient and kind when I reached out to them even when it ended up being nothing.
As I got closer to my due date, I struggled with some anxiety about the birth, and Bree took the time out of her own busy life and schedule to talk me through that and encourage me.
Austin ended up being the one on call when I did go into labor and she was fantastic. Things moved really fast and were very intense by the time she got there, but her calming presence (and her TENS machine) were so helpful. She took beautiful photos, cared for me in the immediate postpartum period, and tag-teamed with my husband to provide me with the support I needed with some struggles after my baby was born. She also went above and beyond in supporting our family when I ended up in the hospital 6 days postpartum with an infection.
All three of these ladies are knowledgeable, experienced, kind, encouraging, and supportive - everything you could possibly wish for in a doula. They make an incredible team and I can't recommend them highly enough!
