Tinaya was my doula during my 2nd pregnancy. I found her on instagram and followed her for a bit before reaching out. Based on our initial meeting I decided to move forward and work with her. My experience with her was a complete 180 from the doula during my first pregnancy. Tinaya stayed in communication and followed up as she said she would. We were saupposed to meet biweekly, however working full time and having a toddler at home that didn't happen. Tinaya was flexible and pivoted to suit my needs, she would send educational videos and readings, as well as, communty events and online courses to attend. I would keep her abreast of my doctor appointments and she would reach out to check on me even if I hadn't reached out. She was a necessary component in me having a successful VBAC. In fact, I enjoyed my time with her so much I'm trying to convince my boyfriend for us to try for a boy. If that happens I will be seeking her services again and hopefully she will also be providing postpartum doula services by then, until then I highly recommend Tinaya.
