I've been so excited for Lacy to offer pregnancy, birth, and postpartum services to women and families in Atlanta. I also used postpartum doula Gwynne Knappe. She was wonderful to help us in the first week when we didn't have family here! Gave us some great tips for helping our baby sleep, watched the baby so we could sleep, and helped out around the house. Having Gwynne is better than having family in some ways - because knows exactly what to do and exactly what is helpful for exhausted parents! I highly recommend Lumina for any of your pre/birth/post needs!

Great massage. Good pressure, adjusts as needed. She really listens to what you need.read more

Highly Recommended! Wife and I attended a class with Guina…read moreabout 3 months before the arrival of our baby girl. She walked us through the background of the "why" and then transitioned into the "how". Many of the tips and tricks Guina provided and demonstrated were incredibly helpful during the run-up to being in labor and during our stay at the hospital. 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. Thanks Guina!

I did the smoothie add on and I am so thankful to have had that during recovery. The pills are clearly making a difference in my mood and I do not have the mood swings my friends have had post partum. My milk came in early and has been in abundance - our son gained over 2 pounds in his first 2 weeks! They were spot on with pick up and delivery and even included a chocolate treat. My friends and family have really enjoyed getting to see the tree of life - it is a wonderful work of art. Shari was our doula. You can read more about how much we love her on her Yelp page - Bodyworks Atlanta. She is simply AWESOME! You can't go wrong with Emerge!

I will never forget experiencing the birthing process with Della!

I didn't think she would have taken me as her client because I was already 39 weeks pregnant at our first meeting. The night I went into labor at 41 weeks, she showed up ready...essential oils and all! 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!

Yolanda was (and still is) truly a blessing during my pregnancy and postpartum. I have a good support system around me but I wanted someone with more experience in the field of entering motherhood. 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. You can tell she loves what she does and has a love for her mamas and their families. She will definitely be hired for baby #2 for us. I am truly grateful!
