We hired Alexis as a birth doula and then for some additional postpartum support too. Alexis was beyond helpful. She was generous with her time and wisdom. Of course things didn't go according to plan, these things never do, and she provided a calming, knowledge that let us work through the complications and feel comfortable with how to move forward. Alexis is well informed and allows you to share your ideas too. She is not at all pushy and supported whatever we wanted, but guided us when we really had no idea and needed a trusted source. Crunchy but not too crunchy, laidback but knows when to step in. I appreciated that we could talk about the details of a medical procedure and also chat about a good playlist. Easy to get in touch with and an all around great gal. I would definitely recommend Alexis for all your birth and baby needs.
