As a first-time dad, I thought my main job during labor was to not pass out. Turns out, with Savannah by our side, I got to be an actual support system instead of just a nervous wreck holding a granola bar. From the first meeting, Savannah made both of us feel completely at ease. She answered every question, even my ridiculous ones like, “is there a wrong way to hold a leg during pushing?”. She helped us create a birth plan, and more importantly, she made sure we felt confident when things didn’t go exactly according to that plan. When labor started on a Tuesday at 2 AM, she was the first to text back ,faster than my mom, which is saying something. Lol. By Wednesday afternoon, after countless counter-pressure techniques, words of encouragement, and somehow keeping my wife calm through contractions that could bend steel, she was still going strong. I, on the other hand, was running on fumes and hospital vending machine coffee. She even reminded me to eat so I didn’t become the patient instead of the support partner. Then came the magic moment. As my wife was delivering our little one on Wednesday night, Savannah coached me through every step. She knew exactly what we needed even when we didn’t but she always asked before stepping in to make us feel comfortable. This whole experience was a blessing. Thank you Savannah for taking care of my wife and helping welcome our new addition to our family.

I cannot say enough good things about Savannah! From our very first conversation, she made me feel heard, supported, and completely at ease about my birth experience. As a first-time mom, I had so many questions and anxieties, but Savannah walked me through everything with patience and encouragement. During labor, she was an absolute rock for both me and my husband. She guided me through different positions, used counter-pressure techniques that made a HUGE difference in my pain management, and reassured me every step of the way. She also helped my husband feel confident in how to support me, which made the experience even more special for both of us. What I appreciated most was how she helped me advocate for myself. When decisions needed to be made at the hospital, she reminded me of my options and encouraged me to ask the right questions, ensuring I felt in control of my birth experience. If you are expecting and considering a doula, hire Savannah! She is kind, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about what she does. I can’t imagine having gone through birth without her. Thank you, Savannah, for helping me have the most empowering and positive birth experience! 💜

I used Savannah for my labor, and I’m so happy that I did! I reached out to her, not exactly knowing what I was looking for, but once we met, I knew she was a great fit. She was so excited to work with us, and I could tell she really cared about giving me the best experience possible. She came to my apartment before going to the hospital and spent time doing exercise exercises, massage, and bath to help with the labor process. My labor was much longer than we’d hoped for, but she was there the whole time, by my side. She and my husband tag team to give me the best support. She was very respectful of our religious servants, and ask questions to make sure she didn’t cross boundaries. She was rooting for me the whole time. I recommend her to anyone.
