I am so beyond grateful to have had Jessica as our doula for the birth of our first child. From our first meeting, she made me feel cared for, comfortable, and validated by deeply listening to my hopes and dreams for having an unmedicated labor and delivery. Her expert knowledge and incorporation of evidence-based practices felt extremely reassuring as my husband and I navigated all the new information and choices we had to make, with Jessica providing unconditional support every step of the way. As someone who tends towards anxious thoughts, Jessica helped me address my fears and encouraged me to develop affirmations that grounded me through my labor and ultimately helped me have the incredible, empowering birth experience I had dreamed of. One of my favorite parts about working with Jessica was how she encouraged my husband throughout the process, especially during labor itself, so that he felt prepared to support me during those challenging moments. The most incredible surprise of all was the beautiful photos she took during my labor and our son’s birth! They truly capture the most special, loving, and vulnerable moments of this life-changing experience and we’ll treasure them forever. Hiring Jessica was hands down the best decision we made in our pregnancy journey and I’d recommend her to anyone looking to have an unwavering, positive, grounding, and informed doula on their birth team.
