Ana is very professional and knowledgeable, yet deeply caring and respectful of your opinions and…read morevalues. Even though this was my third pregnancy, I learned so much about how to care for myself and my baby. I loved that she wasn't pushy, but gave us the facts and let us make our own decisions. We often covered the importance of exercise and nutrition, and I made changes from that, which I believe contributed to a smoother and easier pregnancy than my first two. She also was so calm and professional throughout my labor and delivery. My husband noted how much he appreciated her composure during the most intense moments of my labor. She's the kind of person you'd want by your side when you're not in the right frame of mind. She also collaborated very well with her assistant, respecting her skills and experience during my postpartum assessment. We loved having her as our first midwife and home birth experience and will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!

Ana is a godsend. When I was planning to have my 5th baby, the one thing I knew for sure is that I…read morewanted to have him at home. I interviewed so many great midwives, but as soon as I met Ana, I knew she was the right fit. She took me on late in my pregnancy (27ish weeks), and onboarding with her was so easy. The care that I received from her was supportive, kind, compassionate and steady. I appreciate how calm and nurturing she is while staying firm in her knowledge of pregnancy, birth, and of a woman's body overall. Her care is holistic and evidence-based, and she makes her clients actual partners in their care. We never did anything that I was uncomfortable with (which is almost unheard of in a hospital birth). When I started to go overdue, she was there to reassure me, and because she genuinely trusts the process of birth, she helped me trust my body as well. I had an absolutely amazing birth experience that my husband and I wouldn't trade for anything. My baby is two now (sorry this is so late!), but I still think of Ana often and so fondly. She became part of our family for the time she was with us and I will always love her for helping me have the birth experience of my dreams (even at 43 years old). Thank you Ana!

So when we were looking for a midwife we went to a few and weren't pleased UNTIL we found Charisma Midwifery! As soon as we met Ja'Nelle I felt so calm and at peace maybe it was her energy or the vibes of the place but I knew she was who we wanted, she took such great care of me and my baby and come labor and delivery I loved that she let me and my husband do all the work I felt so in control of everything and she made me feel so comfortable, loved and took in care of through the whole process! Come baby number 2 we found out were expecting and I did not hesitate to say I wanted Ja'Nelle again she treats us like family welcomes us like we've known each other forever and I can't picture having my babies anywhere or with anyone else!!

Approximately six years ago, I attended a birth in which a beautiful spirit, Chula Doula,…read morebrightened and heightened the birth experience with her loving mannerisms and charm. I immediately was drawn to her gentle ways of being, moving, and methods of sharing birthing knowledge. Her words embraced my heart and I immediately knew that she was a gifted doula. In time, I discovered that Chula Doula was not an ordinary doula, no; she was a compassionate body and sexual healer, a radical reproductive health educator, a pregnancy masseuse, an herbalist, and an expert birth worker. Since then, I have attended numerous of Chula Doula's workshops on reproductive health. She provides a comfortable and radical space to discuss the reproductive anatomy, self-examination, and sexual pleasure in ways never taught or discussed with me before by gynecologists and others in the health field. Through her teachings, I became visibly acquainted with my internal reproductive system. Who would have known? I now embrace the Power of my vagina. Aside from building a relationship with Chula Doula through her community involvements in creating spaces to explore and discuss reproductive health in which I support 100%, I outreached to her for birthing guidance a few years ago. I was 34 and pregnant at the time with my second child after almost 15 years (son's age). I had no clue to what my birthing options really where or the manner on how to approach these options. I too was clueless on the various healthy prenatal options like vitamins, iron and calcium sources, and other supplements that were available to me which aligned with my philosophical dietary patterns. She welcomed all of my questions via phone, text, email, Facebook, and person-to-person contact. Chula Doula really nurtured my pregnancy, my womb, my body (prenatal massage and body care), my spirit, and my mothering abilities with her positive outlook and expert advice. What made and makes Chula Doula shine and unique is that she too is an artist, which I forgot to mention above. After my birth, like a surgeon, she arrived with an icebox to transport the placenta to her home kitchen where she first created several placental art prints, then separated the amniotic sac and the umbilical cord from the placenta to prepare for encapsulation, tincture medicine, and birthing memorabilia. I was gifted with placental art, postnatal placental pills, rubbing amniotic sac tincture, and a beautiful dried umbilical cord shaped into a heart. From time to time (mostly in moments of despair and/or anxiety), I take these pills and my goodness...magic. Real medicine. I have shared much and tried to broaden my experiences working with Chula Doula and in all honesty, every time we come into contact, this beautiful spirit enlightens me with so much knowledge! Most recently, I learned how intricate the relationship between menstrual blood and land is and how this connection brings us closer to each other through blood extractions and water. I sincerely am humbled and grateful for her friendship and continual support, as I have still so much to learn about my body.

We took Lia's virtual Bradley method class, and would highly recommend it for any expecting…read moreparents. First off, it can be hard to find time to take a birth class, and Lia chooses convenient times, with multiple options to choose from. It's a very comfortable classroom atmosphere where I felt good to ask any question, or add any comment. Lia keeps it fun and interesting, and is a great teacher. Lia is also available outside of class for questions, and she is super responsive. It shouldn't really matter if a doula has been pregnant herself.... But it was really helpful to hear about her first hand experiences and to know that she has gone through it all before. I just wish we in lived in LA so that we could have Lia as our Doula.

I cannot say enough good things about Lia and her natural birth classes. I did the 12 week in…read moreperson classes with my husband. I really wanted to know everything I possibly could and I was also looking for a little community as I was feeling very alone in those first weeks of pregnancy (and overwhelmed with what I didn't know). AND THESE CLASSES DELIVERED! My husband is also a knowledge seeker so when I told him these were the classes I wanted he was all in. We learned so much. We joke that he didn't just learn about the natural birth process he learned how to be my "daddy doula". We still enjoy talking to people about everything we learned and how to support each other and how to speak to your doctors or the hospital nurses. Even if you aren't considering a natural birth these classes should be taken by everyone expecting a baby. You learn about the body, you learn about the different stages of labor, how to prep your body and your mind. There is even a class on breastfeeding which was invaluable those first 3 days postpartum. Lia is also an amazing teacher. If I have another I would definitely also hire her as my doula. She is a person you want in your corner during birth.

I am so glad that my husband and I were referred to Jessica for her midwifery services. It wasn't…read moreuntil halfway through our Bradley class that we decided we wanted to do a homebirth. At that point we were already 28 weeks pregnant and now had to find a midwife. Jessica was always so compassionate and helpful in answering all of our homebirth questions and concerns. She also invited family members to come to prenatal visits to feel more comfortable about our homebirth decision as well. That was a huge win for us! She took great care of me During pregnancy and each time we got to listen to our little girls heartbeat. I loved that she focused a lot on making sure I was getting great nutrition via food and supplementation to help make sure my body was as healthy it needed to be for delivery. When it came to Labor Day, Jessica's experience definitely prevailed! As I was slow to progress, she knew exactly what I needed to do in order to help Baby along. Her guidance and experience made our homebirth a reality. Her and her assistant were fabulous during our golden hour that we got to spend with our baby girl in our home. They took amazing care for me and the baby. Postpartum visits were so helpful and informative especially as a first time mom. Jessica took care / monitored both me and baby for six weeks. We put our full trust in her for caring for myself, our new baby girl and all our future babies.

After talking to her, I instantly knew she was THE one and didn't even bother interviewing anyone else. I'm so glad I trusted my gut. Jessica provided the best holistic prenatal care and still continues to do so postpartum. I always looked forward to every appointment with her knowing that no matter what I was feeling I would walk out feeling comfortable, supported, and heard. She made my fiancé feel included throughout the process and always made sure all of his questions were answered too! During early labor she was in constant contact with my fiancé to check up on me. Unfortunately I didn't end up having the home birth that I had planned for, but Jessica was by my side every step of the way. When we ended up transferring to the hospital, she made sure to advocate for me, and thankfully, she was still able to be by my side throughout the rest of my labor and delivery. Mine and my son's health and safety was always her #1 priority through our entire journey. I am so grateful for her holistic approach throughout pregnancy, her informed consent for every single decision, and most importantly, her friendship. Jessica's passion for guiding mothers and bringing babies earthside shines through everything she does. Thank you, Jessica!

I found Renea online & met with her a few days later in our home. I knew by the end of our meeting that she was who I wanted beside me as I labored and gave birth. On the day I went into labor we were in constant communication via text. Once active labor began she came over to my home (with all of her essential oils!) and worked through the contractions with me. She was a strong supporter for me during this intense time! She came with us to the hospital and was right by my side as I delivered my son. We hired her again for our second-born son's delivery and she was with me, again, during active labor and at the hospital. We also saw her for a postpartum visit after each delivery. It's been 2 years since we first hired her and we are still friends. I text her randomly with a question and she is quick to reply! I've said this before and i'll say it again--i wouldn't want to birth my babies without Renea by my side!

I decided to go the home birth route with my second pregnancy and choosing to go with Heather did…read morenot disappoint! She was referred to me from a friend, yet I still did my own research and interviewed a few other midwives before committing and I felt like she was the best fit. Each prenatal visit was at least an hour long - she gave me time to ask my questions and never made me feel silly or brushed me off. Having no previous exposure to a home birth, I had a lot of questions yet she answered them all gracefully and in great detail - giving my the confidence I needed to believe in myself that I could do this and that it is safe. Also included in the package was a prenatal massage around 36 weeks and when I tell you it was the best massage in my life - you have to believe me! It was amazing! That hour flew by and I was ready to book another one When I went into labor, I waited until almost the last minute to tell anyone, just to be sure it was the real thing. Well, it was the real thing and it was go time by the time my husband got home from work and Heather arrived. But she didn't waste any time, she jumped in and gave me the encouragement and reassurance I needed to get through transition and birth my baby girl. She was so amazing and was not afraid to get her hands dirty. My 3 year old was there and Heather included her in everything and never pushed her out of the way. Even though I was almost pushing as she walked through the door, she still handled everything with such a calmness and peacefulness that it made that crazy intense last part of birth go so perfectly. If I decide to have baby number 3, a home birth will definitely be my preferred route and Heather would be at the top of my list of midwives (but I would give a longer heads up next time ).
