I don't even know where to start with how much I genuinely adore this woman. Trust me when I say…read morethat there is no better midwife around. This woman is not only personable and kind, but she is also incredibly knowledgeable and experienced as a midwife and sound in her medical understanding of birth and prenatal care. Do yourself a favor, and pray to God that she is available to take you on as a client! Even if you live an hour away, I promise you, she's worth the "inconvenience." Emily is so thorough in her care and so genuine in her compassion for you as a person. She easily became one of my favorite people on this planet. Unsure or uneducated about midwifery? Don't know much about homebirth? No problem. Just book her already.

Having Emily Schultz as my midwife was truly an amazing experience from start to finish. This was…read moremy third birth, but my first home birth and first time working with a midwife -- and I can confidently say, I couldn't have asked for a better guide through this journey. From our very first meeting, it was clear that Emily views pregnancy and birth with a deeper, more holistic perspective than a traditional OB. When I mentioned past hormone issues, she immediately had a thoughtful plan and ensured we monitored everything closely with lab work and had a solution ready if needed. I felt truly seen and cared for. Staying in contact with Emily was incredibly easy. She was always responsive, open, and supportive -- I never once felt like I was a burden or just another appointment on her calendar. Even in the final days before birth, when her schedule was packed and I was still working full-time, she made sure I felt prioritized. She kept me updated, was flexible when needed, and never made rescheduling stressful. On the day of the birth, she was in constant contact and headed over as soon as I felt ready. The birth itself was absolutely magical. I felt empowered, in control, and safe -- all because Emily was by my side. She brought such a calm, steady presence that allowed me to focus fully on the experience. Since giving birth Tuesday evening, Emily has checked in multiple times, making sure I'm recovering well and feeling supported. Honestly, I feel like I hit the jackpot having her as my care provider -- and even more than that, I feel like I've made a lifelong friend. Emily is a true angel. She genuinely cares about the people she serves, and you're never just a number to her. Anyone lucky enough to work with her is in the absolute best hands.

This being my first baby, Erica gave me the assurance, support and confidence I needed to reach my goal of a natural birth. She is an amazing listener and her calming energy is infectious. I always felt loved and cared for by Erica. I truly don't know what I would have done without her. She will forever be my doula for all of my future births. Thank you Erica for being such an amazing person and my forever doula!!

I absolutely couldn't imagine how my birth may have gone without having Erica as my doula and educator! She is knowledgeable, well educated, prepared, and brings such a calming presence. She helps mothers feel empowered to make informed decisions during their births and helped me cross the finish line to birth my baby after an extremely long labor because of baby's positioning. She helped make the hospital room feel like it was our own and made me feel comfortable enough to communicate my needs and wants to the hospital staff without ever having gone through birth before. If you are hesitant about hiring a doula or signing up for birthing classes, this is your sign to sign up. You 100% won't regret it!
