I really appreciated that we can have separate approaches to nutrition and she was still very able to meet my needs and questions with thoughtful and respectful answers. I can imagine that for plant based mothers and families she is especially needed because there are not many professionals in the area to support mothers in this way. Emily is a gifted doula and has a loving and thoughtful approach to supporting mothers and children. She has written a parenting book and has been studying how to be a doula all over the world for many years now. I highly recommend Emily for postpartum doula services and consultations. Thank you Emily for your professional and warm approach!

As a first time mom who was also planning a low/no intervention home birth, I was overwhelmed and…read moreclueless about where to start. I started interviewing doulas and midwives when I was only 3 months pregnant. After contacting Cynthya thru the Happiest Doulas website, I spoke with her and knew immediately that I needed the support of a doula from The Happiest Doulas as a part of my birth team. I requested a consult with Jeni Standard. Jeni's biography resonated with me the most because she had studied functional nutrition, and was certified in both nutrition and lactation. As a sufferer of Celiac Disease and someone who struggled with getting pregnant, I knew she would be a great resource and offer the support and understanding I needed. And I was so right - Jeni was the calm to my storm! She was there to comfort me after after some scary experiences. She also had great reading recommendations, as I was avidly reading all the books while pregnant. We had so many questions after our son was born and Jeni was so supportive and responsive. Because she is also a certified lactation consultant, she was able to support my decision to breastfeed, despite many obstacles. She followed up with me many times after our son was born, and I still feel like I could reach out to her just to catch up! Included in my birth package were 10 weeks of birth bootcamp classes. Our instructor, Alexa Gumm, was so wonderful! Her warmth and experience made our weekly Sunday classes something that my husband and I truly looked forward to. It turned out to be a great bonding experience for the two of us. We learned so much - from what to expect during labor (we got to watch videos) to info on breastfeeding. The classes were great for me, but mostly, I wanted my husband to really understand the process. He is not the type to read books, so a class was perfect. Alexa made sure the "dads" understood ways to support their partners during the birthing process. Alexa would have been so proud of my husband because he remembered everything she taught us during class and he was really supportive while I was in labor! She even followed up with me after our son was born and gave me some recommendations that were really helpful. I am so thankful Cynthya brought together the wonderful group called The Happiest Doulas! I will surely call on them again in the future when I plan my next birth. Cynthya was so kind and helpful as well throughout. I feel as if I gained 3 wonderful friends by the end of my pregnancy.

The happiest doulas, Jenny Bennett, nor Cynthia showed up. I saw Jenny as I was groggily being rolled out of my c section after laboring all night alone. Which is why I sought out a doula.

They would Also Not refund any of my money after not showing up. I never seen these women at all during my pregnancy. Hopefully after this time they got together.

My toddler went to her immediately and loved hanging out with her. While I was laboring she tidied up my kitchen so everything was clean for the next day for my husband. She supervised my little one while he came in to see me, and took him to another room when things got intense. He even let her put him down for a nap which I was super surprised by! My husband was able to focus on me the entire time without having to worry about the little. My labor was fast and intense so I was really thankful he was there for support. I would definitely recommend having a sibling doula from labor of love at your home birth, or if you need someone to be with your kids while you're at the hospital.

For my second birth, a Labor of Love provided the education and knowledge that I never thought needed for my first birth. 2 days with these wonderful women allows you to open up your mind and body to the wonders of natural birth and the courage to know that you are in control if you so choose. Charlotte, our Doula was the stability we needed in the swirl of hospital drama. She reminded my husband and I that the choices were ours and we should feel no pressure to do anything we were uncomfortable with during the birth of our second child. Her calming hands, foot massages, aromatherapy and beautiful voice was calm we both needed.

Our first…read moremeeting with Erin was a laid back informative time to get to know her and our goals for a natural birth. The pre-natal meetings were a great time to discuss natural birth and what to expect as a first time mom. She never pushed any of her own preferences on us but respectfully listened and wanted what was best for our family. On the day of labor Erin was a crucial part of our team! I know that without her calm presence and encouragement I would have easily given up. She helped both myself and my husband navigate through an unexpected labor. With her help we were able to achieve a natural birth. Her post-partum visit was so helpful as a new mom. Erin was able to calm me of new mom worries and guided me with breastfeeding as well. When we have more children in the future she will be the Doula at our side!

Even though I couldn't have my water birth due to Covid, they were still sure to keep me feeling at ease with going through the natural birth process. Skyla accompanied me in my birth and she was an absolutely wonderful support person. I know I probably hurt her ears with my screaming but she continued to help me push through the pain.
