I was in Christy's care for the birth of my first baby this past April. I truly could not say…read moreenough great things about Christy and the support she provided. I delivered at the birth center before she went hospital only, but I don't think location matters when it comes to Christy. Through all of our appointments and the labor she was kind, attentive, supportive and calm. She was always willing to help me with anything and answer any questions I had. I really appreciated the opportunity to talk to her and get to know her not only as my midwife but she truly felt like a friend. I'm forever grateful for Christy and the midwife experience she provided to me. I recommend her to absolutely everybody, she loves what she does and it really shows. Thank you, Christy!

From the very beginning, communication was clear, professional, and supportive, which made the entire process feel easy. They coordinated pickup seamlessly after delivery, even after our delivery plans changed they were right there when needed and handled everything with care and professionalism. My capsules were delivered quickly, beautifully packaged, and came with clear instructions also check-in's and any questions! I found the experience incredibly positive. I noticed more stable energy levels, a smoother emotional transition postpartum, and overall felt more supported in my recovery. It gave me peace of mind knowing I was doing something intentional for my healing during those early weeks. For me, I can honestly say it was a worthwhile part of my postpartum care especially after a c-section. Even a few capsules made a noticeable difference in how I felt adjusting to life with our first newborn. I'm so grateful I chose Feel Good Placenta and would absolutely use them again!

Never see a professional not want to be able to answer all questions to understand the type of care needed and required and then sends a flyer that shows she does delivery for additional fee yet when I inquired she said only if I spend a extra $200 .. * To your reply; I reached out in Dec and you did the same thing ( not wanting to talk on the phone name only text and sent your flyer ) but after looking at your paid reviews I decided to give you another chance yet you proved me correct. You said you can take us on then after me asking two or three questions you changed your mind when I refused to get the $500 service you suggested instead of the $300 I inquired about. Wha is NOT ok is you lying * Now she updates her replies and again trying to make herself sound better and seem better than the experience she provided! I pray the best for you at the end of the day you were rude , off-putting , and dismissive.

I continued to see Jaci monthly throughout my pregnancy for massages and also attended her birthing class.

I also used Jaci's placenta encapsulation services and I feel it has helped with my postpartum depression and anxiety.

I am beyond thankful for my doula, Glyol. She began working with me when I was 6 months pregnant…read moreand guided both my husband and me through childbirth education: what to expect, how to prepare, and how to feel empowered in the process. At every visit, she included hypnotherapy sessions that I truly enjoyed and found deeply helpful in preparing for birth. She even created a personalized hypnotherapy playlist for me to listen to at night, which brought me comfort and relaxation throughout my pregnancy. Because of her guidance, I was able to connect with my son in utero in such a meaningful way. Glyol was by my side during labor and birth, and continued to support me after, especially with breastfeeding and postpartum needs. She also encapsulated my placenta, which has helped me tremendously during my postpartum recovery and healing. She has been attentive, kind, and so loving toward both me and my son. Her care, prayers, and presence have meant the world to me. I am beyond grateful for all that Glyol has done for my family. She is truly God-sent!

As…read morefirst time expecting parents, she made the months leading up to the birth feel calm, focused, optimistic....and did so with advice that we could actually put into practice. I'm so humbled by the positive impact she made on our experience from our first meeting through the safe delivery of our son. I think important to point out (as someone who was initially wary of anyone who felt too woo woo!) that Glyol's calm presence isn't some hand wavy thing...She's one of those rare people who have such detailed mastery of their craft that you feel safe, informed, and ready. As the partner this was super helpful to feel. She really listens, soaks up where the mother is at, where the partner is at, and then out of left field will say something that is just so so helpful and specific to that context. During the birth, she balanced supporting my wife, helping me support my wife, looking out for me too (making sure I hydrated and ate!), all of that also with trusting us and letting us drive our experience. I just can't recommend Glyol enough. I want everyone's birth experience to be as informed and supported by someone like her. And i can't wait for our little guy to know her as he grows. We love you Glyol! Thank you!

He is an older doggie and is a bit blind and can't hear well. It was a miracle for me to find such a kind hearted person in 2 days, as his home was put on the market and had little time to find him a loving home. Charlie Tuna seemed very shy at first but sensed the love that Lainee showed him and in seconds he came out of his carrier and went to her. I was amazed as he had been an abused dog when we got him from the pound for our dad. He loved him so much when he passed we promised never to return him to the pound as he would not fair well. Because of our situation we couldn't keep him. So I am so grateful for the Nextdoor app. It connected us with Lainee. The miracle was not only the perfect quick timing, but the wonderful family he has now. I am so grateful for Lainee and I know Charlie Tuna is too! One more shout out to her as she has a fantastic following of women who have raved about her profession as a Doula! Lots of 5 star reviews. I totally understand that just from meeting her. Kind, loving, gentle, caring, and a smile that says it all. Thank you from our hearts Lainee! We pray you are all safe from the fires. God bless you.

She came to my rescue after a terrible experience with an unqualified "night nurse." I was floundering for help and Lainee had a short window of weeks to spare amongst her always busy and full schedule. If you want the best, and she is, you better book her way in advance. I'm talking as soon as you know you're pregnant! Her clientele list is a thick phone book of Celebrities and High Profile parents who will pay the extra dollar for someone to swoop in and give them the much needed rest they need, but more importantly, to give their baby the best care a baby could have. I immediately felt Lainee's loving caring confident bohemian energy. I took my first breath after giving birth. Lainee is a walking sigh of relief. Her attitude is the perfect balance of highly educated and practical calmness one needs to custom tailor what each particular newborn needs to have a great night sleep. Lainee was beyond generous in helping me not only nights but also with any questions I had during the day. She's a wealth of infinite baby knowledge and her straight forward candor tells it like it is so a new Mother can easily fix problems as they come. I'm forever grateful to her for being there for me and my daughter in those first few months. Bu Baby Concierge lives up to its expectations and delivers the much needed solace a new mother is looking for after she gives birth. My only regret is not knowing her sooner!
