Robin & team were very helpful during my pregnancy. They answered every question & were available to me when I needed pre & postnatal. Robin’s teachings & exercises were so good that I was able to have very minimal assistance during birth. I appreciate the team’s holistic approach to labor & delivery I am glad that she was able to take me on as a client.

Robin is not only an amazing doula but also a truly wonderful human being. As first-time parents, we were so grateful for her support—she provided us with invaluable information and guidance every step of the way. She was always friendly, patient, and happy to answer all our questions, no matter how many times we asked. Throughout the pregnancy, she kept in touch via emails and texts, making sure we felt supported. During labor, she was incredible—motivating and guiding me through the toughest moments and staying with us until we felt settled in the hospital with our newborn. A special thank you for capturing those precious first moments with our baby! Even after birth, when I faced postpartum complications, she continued checking in on me, offering support and reassurance. I can vouch that she has some amazing tips and tricks up her sleeve. Her kindness and dedication mean so much to us, and we would absolutely book her again for our next baby!

From start to finish she has been extremely helpful with the coaching and the one on one talks there’s no one I could even think about that would’ve done a better job friend or family. Well now she is family. Can’t thank you enough for being there for me during my pregnancy, postpartum and motherhood journey and for my boyfriend’s journey with fatherhood and being my support!! Thank you so much Robin. We love you🩷

Robin was incredible throughout pregnancy and labor/delivery! She communicated well leading up to labor, showed up to the hospital in a timely manor (despite having an hour travel time), and was the perfect extra support to me and my husband. She has clearly done plenty of research to aid in decision making, and she did not overstep at any point. I don't have enough good words for this wonderful woman!

Amazing amazing experience with Robin as my doula. She went above and beyond in every aspect from the very beginning. I came to her late in my pregnancy with many concerns about not having the proper support during delivery as my family doesn’t live close and wasn’t able to attend. She educated me and made sure to make herself familiar with me and my request in very little time. I could tell that she truly cared about making sure I was supported during my pregnancy/delivery. By the end of my experience I could say without a doubt that's she does what she does because she actually likes to do it and has passion for it. Great warming spirit, I felt like family was with me when robin was by my side. Highly recommended robin to any mother looking for a doula that cares! 😊

Robin was absolutely amazing throughout the whole experience, even though I had her for my 4th delivery she brought so much knowledge and calmness to not only myself but my whole support system! I was very nervous going into my tubal but robin took extra time to research, prepare and coach me through all my worries and advocated on my behalf when I wasn’t getting clear answers from the hospital. She also advocated for my significant other when I had been in surgery for longer than expected. Recommend her to all my pregnant friends❤️
