Stephanie not only supported me physically but also emotionally, understanding and respecting our wishes while communicating effectively with the midwife and assisting in creating a peaceful birthing environment. Her expertise in childbirth education shone through as she guided us through each stage of labor, ensuring we felt informed and empowered throughout the entire process. We welcomed a beautiful baby girl and I am so grateful that Stephanie was by our side. We love her!

I was pregnant with my first child and I was having complications on my pregnancy and I decided to hire a doula. Stephanie was so great to me I don't even know how to explain how satisfying was having her around. She helped me a lot she will make me soup if I was feeling sick, she would comfort me in so many ways. She was very sweet and caring while I was in bed because of how sick I was. After giving birth she came around to help with the baby she even brought me a welcome basket for the baby and I. Stephanie will tell me stories to make me feel better she was very supportive, but the best part was when I was in labor she would hold my hand and talk to me in a very positive way she even gave some comfort to my husband since we were so nervous. I so recommend her to anyone who needs a doula because she's a great person to have around in situations like this.
