Jeni advocated for us when we needed it and provided emotional and physical support that made me feel safe and empowered the entire time to have an unmedicated birth. Her post partum visit saved my breastfeeding journey where she gave us valuable advice and almost 5 months later, I am still happily breastfeeding. We couldn't be more grateful for Happiest Doulas!!

So thankful that Guina was willing to share her wisdom with us. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking a calm, reassuring veteran to help guide them through the birthing process.

Her presence was reassuring and steady in one of the most vulnerable times of my life. What really stood out was her care after the birth as well. At our postpartum follow-up she brought over a sitz bath and checked in on how we were doing, which meant so much during those early days. She's warm, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable -- exactly the kind of person you want supporting you during such an important experience. I'm so grateful we had her by our side and would highly recommend her to any family preparing for birth.

She was with my Husband and I for every step of the way (triage to an hour or so after the baby arrived) and she respected/supported EVERY decision my Husband and I made. She never once appeared tired, impatient, or frustrated with the birthing progress. We had a completely natural birth (in a hospital setting) but having Shiphrah and my Husband there made me feel like I was in the comfort of my own home- despite all the unnecessary hospital chaos that was happening around me. I would definitely use her again! I still think about the back rubs, the counter pressure, hugs, breathing techniques, leg rubs, smiles, reassurance, and just calm spirit she maintained to help me through such a painful & beautiful time! We need more empowering women of faith like this in the community, My husband and I thank God for her!

My husband and family initially did not see the need for a doula but once they saw her in action and how much knowledge she gave us they quickly changed their minds.

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.

At that point, we had already paid her trusting the great reviews she had online. Covid hit, and in Atlanta they didn't allow a 2nd support person (in some hospitals they were not even allowing the partner), and I was furlough from my job. We asked if she can keep half of the payment, and refund us half back since she won't join us in the hospital. She has not responded to my asks for that, literally tried numerous times, and feel very much scammed. Terrible experience- especially since we approached this from a place of wanting support, she turned out to be anything but that and added significant stress during my pregnancy.

Having her in our corner was invaluable as we navigated the uncharted waters of pregnancy and beyond. She was always available and quick to answer any questions (is XYZ normal? Can I get in a hot tub? What do we do about this?) etc etc. And then when the Covid-19 pandemic made EVERYTHING unknown, having Rebecca's NO BS style, guidance, empowering energy and knowledge made us much more comfortable and confident with every new twist and turn. The hospital only allowed one guest (my partner) so Rebecca video chatted with us during the entire labor. She coached us through every step of the way. I had some unforeseen complications and Rebecca worked with us and our medical staff to make sure we understood everything before moving forward with next steps. We ended up with a healthy mama and baby. And even though our birth story ended up very differently from our birthing plan, I wouldn't have changed a thing. I feel so satisfied with how well everyone worked together to nurture and support our little family. We found Rebecca to be worth her weight in gold and will highly recommend her to friends and family.

Stefanie was our doula and she went with us from the Atlanta Birth Center to the Medical Center. We had a 50 hour labor from start to finish and she was there for the entire labor. We had a great labor experience with Stefanie and I am looking forward to recommending her to everyone I know in the Atlanta area. I think I would have tapped out at around 24 hour mark if it was not for her comfort and support during labor. I highly recommend this doula team. Our midwife team was also impressed with their talent and professionalism.
