Kind Words from Clients
"Emily was such a blessing to us during the birth of our third child! She has a very sweet and calming presence and had great ideas for movements to help labor progress and plenty of encouragement for when things slowed down. We appreciated all her prayers and support! It's a big decision to allow someone into such a momentous (and vulnerable!) event, but we felt so safe and loved by Emily and could not recommend her more highly!" -Heidi and Nathaniel M.
"Emily was very helpful in the pre birth process to help myself and my husband understand different birth techniques and comfort measures. She was the who took pictures of baby and mom after the birth since we were all excited over baby. We loved that she captured the moments right after birth. Post birth she also supported as a postpartum doula and helped mom get rest by watching both children (2 year old and newborn). We are so blessed to have Emily as part of our lives and know she was a God send!" -SueLyne H.
"We are so glad we chose Emily as our doula! Throughout my pregnancy, she was readily available to answer any questions we had, and then stayed in close contact with me regarding my progress in the days leading up to the birth. Physically, I experienced heavy back labor, and Emily worked extensively with the Labor and Delivery nurses in finding the best positions for baby to rotate and labor to continue to progress. Emotionally, Emily helped us feel informed and confident throughout the whole process. She has a servant’s heart and we would recommend her to anyone." -Kiersten and Darryl N.
“Emily helped create the most confident, safe, loving atmosphere for welcoming our daughter into the world. She was attentive and empowering, advocating for our natural birth. Her quiet calm kept me focused and even laughing at times. Perhaps the most meaningful thing to me was the connection she made with our whole family before and after the birth. Our 3yo daughter affectionately calls her 'My Doulie.' The work doulas offer is an incredible gift and Emily does it so well!” - Kari G.
“Having a doula was really important to my wife. Emily was a comforting addition to our birth plan. She was very attentive to us during the delivery process and was calm and caring and knew just what to say. We truly appreciated her being a part of that life changing experience.” -Tony G.
“Emily was the extra set of hands and the support that our family needed for the birth of our son Jayden. She responded promptly to our call when I was in labor, and she helped me transition from laboring at home to laboring at the hospital. Emily provided encouragement when the birthing process seemed slow, and she helped us document and capture the precious moments when our son arrived. What a surprise and honor it was when she reached out to me a year later to remember his first birthday. Emily’s thoughtfulness and acts of kindness as a Doula will always be remembered and appreciated.” -Heather N.
"After a terrible hospital birth experience with my firstborn 12 years ago, I knew that I wanted something different for my second childbirth. When looking into my options I decided a birthing center was closer to what I was looking for but I was VERY nervous about how I’d handle an unmedicated birth. Initially I didn’t think I’d need a Doula but as I got closer to my due date I also started to worry about how my husband would react once I went into labor. In the weeks leading up to labor it was so helpful to be able to call or text Emily any time I had questions, concerns or just needed reassurance that I could do this. The day I went into labor I knew something was happening but it still didn’t feel real. I started texting Emily that I was having contractions and she called me to listen to how close together they were and helped me breathe through. When it was time to go to the center she met us at our house and gave my husband guidance on what to expect, how to help, etc. During my labor she helped him as much as she helped me. With her help he was able to be a huge support for me and helped me through one of the most difficult but rewarding experiences of my life. In the midst of everything she also captured some beautiful photos for us. I strongly encourage hiring Emily if you’re thinking about a Doula. She’s amazing support for both mom and dad!" -Apryll E.
