Anita was fantastic to work with! My partner and I had just bought a house and were planning on moving into the area at 37wks. I had reached out to her regarding availability for my labor and delivery shortly before that. She was so kind and flexible in services to take us on so late in my pregnancy. Her care and attention to detail made me feel very heard and supported throughout my time with her. Labor and delivery did not go as planned as it so often happens but Anita was there to listen, support and advocate during the chaos. She went above and beyond to make a silly wish of mine come true- I had decided last minute I wanted to dress up as "Fat Thor" for Halloween- I was to be induced on 10/30. I didn't have time or energy to get props together on the 29. During the early stages of labor I showed her a picture of what I had wanted to do and talked about the missed opportunity. Fast forward a couple of hours (it's now Halloween,) we had sent Anita to take a break- it had been a long day. She came back with a beard and Thor's hammer THAT SHE MADE!!! Through my delirium, I had just gotten an epidural, she helped me "get dressed" in bed. We all had a great and much needed laugh, the nurses came in and took pictures with me. Anita stayed with us, encouraged me and my partner during difficult and scary moments and advocated for me when I couldn't. She stayed and supported my mom when I went in for an emergency c-section- she truly cared and supported all of us! We are so happy and lucky to have had her with us! I highly recommend using a doula, especially Anita if you have the chance! Thank you for being there for us!

Anita was my doula for the birth of my second child. Her expertise and her calming presence was instrumental to the successful outcome I experienced with bringing my baby into this world and into my arms safe and sound. Labor was full of surprises, even though it was not my first child. She sustained a calm and focused energy on me and the baby while being present with my husband throughout the whole process. I had confidence in my labor team at the hospital but felt it wasn't enough. I wanted and needed Anita there by my side too and I'm glad I did. I walked away from my labor full of gratitude and her presence was critical to that outcome.

Anita was absolutely amazing as my doula, so thoughtful with her periodic check ups the weeks before I went into labor and providing such transparent feedback answers and reassurances when I asked her some random labor questions and concerns. She is outstanding at remembering my birth plan preferences once we were in the delivery room, and she was critical in helping me get comfortable and relaxed during labor. I had a very uneventful labor story but when I was put into a position by the labor & delivery nurse that had put added pressure and uncomfortableness she worked her magic and made it so much better. She assisted my husband during the pushing part and helped by holding one of my legs while my hubby had the other one after 2 hours of pushing I just had no energy left. She also went above and beyond and took a video of our first moments with our baby and captured our baby girl on my chest and the umbilical chord cutting and a few other photos we asked her to capture. She was absolutely the best. Highly recommend.
