Susan is an incredible postpartum doula. So nurturing and kind. I don't know how I would have made…read moreit through this difficult transition without her. She is able to hold space in such a gentle and caring way that really leaves you feeling held, heard, and supported. She takes time to listen deeply and understand... and responds with intention and care. Sometimes we just need to be heard and held to heal. Truly witnessed in our process. Having that calm, loving presence was literally priceless. On top of that, her Ayurvedic recipes, oil massage, belly binding (and more) helped me to get back in touch with my body after a difficult and somewhat traumatic delivery. Next time I will try to have her with me prenatal, delivery and postpartum. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Susan! You are truly one of a kind... I don't think I'd be at the point in my recovery I am today without you.

Let me start by saying Jen is absolutely amazing! She is kindhearted, genuine and compassionate!…read moreShe truly loves what she does and it shows in her work. We interviewed a lot of doulas before deciding to hire Jen. I had honestly already selected a doula I wanted and almost cancelled the consultation appointment with Jen but something told me to keep it and I am so glad I did. After chatting with her I knew she was the one. Her energy and calming voice was exactly what I knew I needed! Jen has been there for me EVERY step of the way on this wild rollercoaster to motherhood! She is always just a text or call away and the amount of time I've called her and spent an hour or more on the phone with her just crying, venting, laughing or bouncing thoughts with her. She's quickly become one of my dear friends! At my birth she was pivotal, and kept me calm by helping with breathing tactics and pain management tools. She even helped me push my baby out. I am so grateful to have walked this journey and to keep walking this journey with you Jen! Thankfully we also added on her postpartum package and she has been spoiling me with yummy meals, foot and back massages, sitz baths and loving on my son. Jen is an absolute gem and I highly recommend her! Oh and I almost forgot she captured my birth beautifully too with photos and videos. And the education she gives during her prenatal visits are like nothing else any other doula does. Most doulas start there visits in late 3rd trimester and show up at the birth. Jen walked along this ENTIRE journey with me. I am so grateful to her for everything!

I had an AMAZING experience with Jen. She's the sweetest & makes you feel comfortable immediately…read more I was on the fence about doing an unmedicated birth after trying to go unmedicated with my first birth (and ending up getting an epidural) but I really wanted to give myself the opportunity with my second and final baby. I could not have done it without Jen! Highly recommend, worth every penny!

Emily was our doula when my daughter was born. She was incredible. We were nervous about sharing…read moresuch an intimate experience with someone we didn't know. But Emily was calm, confident, and clicked with my husband and I. She helped us craft our birth plan, but she also gave us the confidence to be Ok with however it turned out. She was with us giving my husband calm directions during the harried car ride, advocated for my natural labor in the hospital room, held the monitors in place so I could labor in whatever position I needed to be in! After my daughter was born, she was back at our house the next day, and a few times after. Checking in, showing us the ropes on newborn gear, etc. I truly felt like I've gained a friend. She checks on our family regularly, and even stops by for a visit when she's in the neighborhood! LA is lucky to have Emily !

I worked with Emily during my recovery process after sustaining major injuries from a car accident…read more Although I am not her typical postpartum client, I cannot recommend her highly enough. She's a caring spirit with a great laugh who possesses a deep knowledge of the body -- she helped me with exercises to regain mobility and strength after my surgery, pain alleviation through massage and gentle bodywork, as well as support in recouping independence in daily tasks. She was receptive and adjusted her care based on whatever I was needing that day. Having Emily's help was a large part in both my physical and emotional recovery. Finally, she's generally a lovely person to have around!

Sadly, I cannot speak to Kate's abilities with regard to the birthing process, since she was…read morealready booked for my due date. I am, however, able to discuss her nature, her knowledge, and her dedication. I suffer from a rare condition called hyperemesis gravidarum. It's a condition that had me hospitalized on three occasions, and on bed rest for six months. I lost my job, I was unable to connect with friends and family, I was too sick to speak, and I was on anti-nausea meds that kept me asleep or too groggy to think most of the day. To compound matters, I'm fairly new to LA and didn't have the social resources to help me through that incredibly difficult time. When I finally emerged from the fog, a friend recommended I research doulas for additional support, which is how I found Kate. When reaching out and explaining my situation, other doulas were "all business." Most let me know they were already booked, and explained that I should have researched doulas earlier (thank you for your wisdom). Kate was the exception that took note of my difficult situation and all but rushed to my rescue. While she was already booked for my due date, she reached out to her vast doula community to help me find someone who was a good fit. Because of my condition and the after-effects of being in solitary confinement for six months, my needs are high--and specific. So, helping me find another doula was no small feat. Kate also set me up with a slew of other resources to help me manage the mental and physical stress I had been going through. She also welcomed me into her new mom community, which seems to be exclusively made up of kind, cool, welcoming women. Kate has been nothing short of a Godsend to me. It's hard to express in a Yelp review just how desperate I was to feel supported. Somehow, in my six sentence inquiry email that was overlooked by a handful of other doulas, Kate saw through the fog and saw a woman in need. I am eternally grateful to her and anyone would be lucky to have her on their side.

Kate was our Doula for the birth of our second child just over a year ago and I could not have…read moreasked for more beautiful perfect support. I wasn't sure I was going to have a Doula the second time around. I felt that my husband and I already had a pretty solid birth partnership and because it was going to be a home birth we'd have lots of constant support from our midwife and her assistant. When we decided we wanted the extra love/care, we knew Kate should be that person. Perhaps what stands out most in my memory of Kate on that day is how she seemed to know exactly what was needed in each given moment. As a Doula myself, I'm aware that each birth is unique as is every couple and family. Sometimes a Doula needs to be very hands on, and sometimes not as much - more as a supportive presence in the room from a distance. Kate just totally took our cues and because of my husband and my relationship, because we'd done this before and because it was a shorter and easier labor...we did a lot of it on our own. But in the moments I needed Kate and didn't even know it, I'd look over and there she was - whispering the most perfect motivating and inspirational words in my ear, or massaging my neck and shoulders with lavender oil. I feel honored to have Kate in my life. It is clear that supporting new families is her true calling, and I can say from experience that any couple considering using her services will most definitely have a more peaceful and positive prenatal, birth and/or postpartum experience with Kate by their side.

My wife and I used Sarah as our birth doula and she has been a tremendous help!!…read more Sarah is very knowledgeable, easy to work with, and has a very calming motherly demeanor which helped my wife get through a quite stressful delivery. We also liked that Sarah made herself available to us at any time whereas other doulas had an approach that felt like they were nickel and diming us (ie charging by the hour) and it generally felt more transactional. We would use Sarah again and would definitely recommend her!

Sarah has been by my side for two of my births--each profoundly different, and both equally…read morelife-changing. She supported me, alongside hospital-based midwives, through the unimaginable loss of my first son, who was stillborn at 37 weeks. And she stood beside me once again for the emotional, healing, and empowering early-term induction of our daughter, supported by our wonderful OB/GYN. Sarah's innate wisdom, grounding presence, unwavering support, and fierce advocacy carried me through both the darkest and most transformative moments of my life. Each of my births has marked a powerful transition into a different version of motherhood, and Sarah has been there for every step of that evolution. Her passion, deep knowledge, and confidence are truly invaluable--whether you're pregnant, giving birth, or finding your way through the early postpartum experience.

A friend recommended Candice after I reached out to all my mom friends via a frantic text at 2am…read morewhen my newborn stopped latching 5 days postpartum. The Kaiser lactation consultants were unable to answer why or offer suggestions so we were desperate. Candice responded to my inquiry so quickly and was so knowledgeable, so compassionate and empathetic, and so patient. Our whole family immediately felt comfortable with her and she was able to answer technical questions, was so professional but still very emotionally responsive, and most importantly, she helped us start our successful breastfeeding journey. I wish wish wish we had worked with her with our first who also did not latch. You can tell from the get go that Candice loves what she does and knows what she's doing. She offered recommendations for other specialists (our baby had a suspected tongue tie, which is something no other consultant or doctor had even mentioned) and offered ongoing help and checked in after our initial appointment. Price-wise, she's definitely affordable and within the range of what other consultants are charging. I think she also can work with some insurances as well. I continue to feel so lucky to have met and worked with her and highly recommend her.

Candice was so patient, kind, and never made me feel rushed or judged. She really took the time to watch, listen, and pick up on things I wouldn't have noticed, which led to a referral for a frenectomy that made a big difference for my baby. She referred me to Dr. Rumack, and she and her staff were also amazing. Thank you so much for the referral. Even though breastfeeding didn't go exactly as I planned, I felt supported the whole way and more confident advocating for my baby. I'm so grateful for Candice and highly recommend her.

Sara was a wonderful doula to have by our side! She came highly recommended by my previous doula…read morefrom when my first son was born, who was not available. At first I wasn't sure we needed a doula this time since it was our second child, and I wasn't sure I wanted another person in the room due to COVID, but my husband felt pretty strongly that he would feel much more confident and comfortable if we had a doula. So I agreed, and now I'm so glad we decided to use Sara's services. At my 40 week appointment my blood pressure was elevated and it was decided that it was safest for me to be induced. My goal was to have an unmedicated birth, and I was afraid that wouldn't be possible because of the pitocin I'd be getting, which makes contractions really intense. But with Sara there with us, I did it! I truly don't think I could've done it without her. She was a calming presence and was very skilled with keeping me comfortable as possible. I used the Hypnobabies method (which I highly recommend!) and it was very helpful that Sara had experience with that method and knew the philosophy and terminology. Sara was very helpful, knowledgeable, responsive, and a calming presence from the first time I reached out to her all the way until after my son's birth. I highly recommend her services!

We had a good feeling about Sara from the get-go, and our instincts proved to be right. Sara was…read morevery knowledgeable, supportive, and nurturing. She did a great job preparing us mentally and emotionally for the birthing process, and we were very grateful for the meetings before and after the delivery. She also has two little ones of her own, so we appreciated the extra level of first-hand knowledge, around birth and parenthood in general. We felt very well equipped to handle whatever may come during labor, thanks to Sara's thoughtful guidance and encouragement. We've already recommended her to several friends, and continue recommending her now to whoever might be reading this.
