I highly recommend working with Emily! She is thoughtful, intuitive and brings a light and warmth to what can be such a mentally, emotionally and physically challenging experience. She checked in with me regularly before, during and after the birth day, went above and beyond what she was contracted to do, and made me feel like I had a companion in my journey (besides my partner) from the first meeting. Besides being a great resource and source of comfort, she takes lovely photos, too. You won't be sorry you chose her as your birth doula.

Emily was such an important role in my birth. I had very inconsistent and near constant contractions for over 24 hours. Emily brought a calm energy and was ready to encourage me, physically support me by using counter pressure every contraction for hours on end. By the time I was pushing she was going between capturing the moment and having a cold washcloth for me between contractions. At the end I got to see photos she captured throughout labor and have the moments to remember. I could not recommend using Embolden Doula Services/Emily more and I will definitely be using them again for my next birth.
