I feel so much more prepared about even just one thing and it's so comforting. My husband was able to come as well and they even dedicated a part of the class to the dads and how important their role is. Sarah was the instructor for the course and she was so friendly and welcoming. She was really thorough, didn't make us feel rushed, and literally answered everyone's question with such thoroughness and care. I'm so happy we did this and will be back for sure! It's nice to know there's support even during/after.

    While I appreciate how friendly and thorough Leora was at my consult, the recommendation she gave…read moreme for flange size for pumping was completely wrong and caused me a few days of terrible pain. I had been exclusively pumping, pretty comfortably after a lot of trial and error on my own, with 24mm flanges. However, my output was diminishing and I saw so many different approaches to flange sizing online that I decided to see a professional to get sized. I was shocked when Leora said I was a 14/15mm instead of 24mm given the vast discrepancy, but after trying the smaller size out in her office on my pump, the output did improve, and the comfort level seemed fine. I was initially very excited and bought the new smaller flanges from her. When I went home, I did 2 more pumps with the smaller flanges, but noticed that my nipples were starting to go numb at the end of each pump and throb in the hours after, even when I adjusted suction to the minimum. I thought maybe this was just part of the transition process and was initially planning to try the new flanges for a full day, but the pain kept getting worse so after 3 sessions with the smaller ones, I switched back to the 24s. I noticed new dark spots on my nipple tips that looked like bruises. The next day and a half of pumps even with the 24s were miserable as my nipples were constantly throbbing and sore from having been injured. Finally about 36 hours later, they started to feel better. Thank goodness I stopped before the damage got worse. I'm very disappointed by this experience because Leora came highly recommended by a friend, and has so many excellent reviews. I understand flange sizing is a bit of art and thought I could trust a professional with so much experience, but unfortunately that did not turn out to be the case.

I've taken two of their mommy-and-baby class series, and I loved both of them. Each series includes special touches like each week is a different topica mini photoshoot, a swim party, and so much more, which makes it absolutely worth every penny. Carmen, who helped lead the group, is amazing. She is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and always makes me feel heard. She gives thoughtful advice and truly cares about the moms and babies she works with. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does. I've also attended several music classes with Michelle, and those have been some of my favorites. My daughter absolutely loves music time, and Michelle does such a great job keeping the kids engaged and entertained. We truly love The Mommy Center and are so grateful for everything they offer!!

Prior to class, we had a group WhatsApp which made it so easy to communicate and get introduced to each other. I love that the center organized mommy outings for us, planned family picnics, as well as provided professional photography. I was never stressed out when I was at the center, knowing that there's a diaper station with plenty of diapers in many sizes, formula in case mamas forget to bring sustenance for baby, bottle warmers, and everything we need to feel comfortable. It felt above and beyond. I highly recommend trying one of several classes they offer! I'm excited to continue onto their 4-6 month old sessions and try out the baby music class.

    Dawnita is truly one of a kind. I saw Dawnita when my daughter was 2-3 months old when I noticed…read moreshe would cry so much while nursing I didn't know what it was and Dawnita helped diagnose her reflux. Soon after she went on medication for reflux our nursing journey really began to improve. Dawnita always had great advice, she dove into the numbers with me and as a type A mom I really appreciated it. She always equipped me with what to say to our pediatrician and together we really helped my baby thrive. I saw Dawnita both at my home and her clinic a few times and both experiences were great her scheduler Shawna was also extremely responsive and helpful. I didn't have great experiences with the LC at the hospital and clinic, I was so nervous meeting Dawnita but she instantly put me at ease and offered great advice. I can't recommend Dawnita enough!

    Dawnita is phenomenal. Both my partner and I absolutely adore her. On top of it, Shawn is…read moreincredible!! She works with Dawnita and has so much experience and expertise that I have relied on her for questions anytime. And Shawn is so on top of her game that she will work you in to Dawnita's schedule if needed, even though Dawnita is so sought after. I found out we could do a prenatal lactation appointment, which I was excited about because everyone tells you to get a million different things and spend a ton of money on breastfeeding products and you don't know what to actually get. On top of it, you go to the hospital preparing for labor but no one really prepares you for once the baby comes! So I wanted to get some guidance on how to breastfeed in the hospital as well. We read reviews for a bunch of different lactation specialists and I honestly thought that the reviews for Dawnita and Shawn were almost too good to be true. I even asked her if these were incentivized and she said absolutely not. They are just a testament to who she truly is, which is clear once you get to work with her. My experience at the hospital with breastfeeding was not good, which I understand is many Women's experience. I got conflicting messages and no real help. Then i was tossed out on my butt to figure it out alone at home (the nurse legit said she wouldnt answer my question and said I have to figure it out myself because i had signed the discharge paperwork). I left in a complete panic that I would not be able to take care of my baby. I have hyper sensitive nipples so I was in a ton of pain (felt like super fun razorblades). Everyone kept saying it was the baby's latch, etc. No one gave validation to what I was feeling with my sensitivity. I sent a panicked email to Shawn and Dawnita before we even left the hospital (so glad I has established that relationship so I had a lifeline), and they got me in for a virtual appointment that very day we got back from the hospital - on top of it, they even scheduled me for an at home appointment the very next day too so I wouldn't panic. Our virtual appointment got me through that fear day one - my partner was holding an iPad up to my boobs while I tried to nurse my baby (looking back, i can only laugh). Dawnita never made me feel rushed or crazy. Dawnita and Shawn walked us through the next number of weeks and made me feel empowered during every dark moment and brought confidence. When Dawnita walks into your house, she glows. And somehow she always finds a way to make you feel better about yourself - even when you're barefoot in a nightgown with milk stains, unshowered, no makeup, and your hair a mess. But more importantly, I'm now six weeks in and my baby is completely thriving. In fact, she gains more than the expected weight. Dawnita does baby weigh ins (so fun), weighted feeds, answers crazy questions (even if not directly to breastfeeding - like helping with baby's first bath), and guides you through YOUR problems meeting you where you are at! She helped evaluate my sensitive nipples, checked the baby's latch, took away my fears about ties (because everyone raises this), and gave me tools for what I needed - including nipple shields and ways to increase my milk supply without going overboard. She also reassured me and provided solace every time someone else made me fearful. I also love that she's minimal so you don't have to buy a bunch of stuff! While other people are taking supplements and doing lots of things, she doesn't sell you things if you don't need them!! She also doesn't judge if you decide not to breastfeed, which I find to be so important. No more shaming mamas!! Speaking of which, everyone always wanted to tell me that my diet and other things were the cause for any discomfort my baby was going through and Dawnita always made me see that it wasn't the case!! I could go on about Dawnita and Shawn forever, but they changed our journey and I'm so grateful that they helped us through the tough road of breastfeeding. One sidenote. Do not let cost and money stand in your way. Dawnita works through the Lactation Network and they work with your insurance so that you have no co-pay. Plus, she travels anywhere in Orange County to meet you at your house (because who wants to travel after having a baby?!)!! I think people like Dawnita and Shawn who work through the Lactation Network to help moms are angels on this earth.

Unfortunately Ariana was no longer local to my area but regardless she responded promptly and offered a virtual consult. The virtual consult was so helpful. Ariana suspected my daughter wasn't lateralizing her tongue effectively enough causing the bottle refusal. She worked with us on exercises we could try and even referred us to a local chiropractor. After our consult Ariana followed up with an email of suggestions and tools which has been immensely helpful. Ariana has been so patient, answering every question thoroughly. We haven't been able to get my daughter back on a bottle but she is now taking a straw cup at 21 weeks old and I solely attribute that to Ariana's help. We can now rest easy knowing my daughter will be nourished while I'm away at work. I whole heartedly recommend Ariana to anyone. She is a god send.

I never been around a baby and there was so much miss information out there my head was spinning, I was about to give up and go to formula, My family then went looking for support out of the insurance and found Ariana online. Ariana responded right away and got me in as soon as she could! She came to my house really listened and got to understand what challenges my son and I are going through. She gave lot of amazing detailed information that no one else had given me, really gave me hope and trust that the work we are putting in is worth it. She saved my sanity and I will continue to use her during my feeding journey with my son until we feel confident we know what we are doing! I am now recommending her to all my friends who are about to have a baby. Cause idk what I would have done if I didn't find her.

    I found Labor of Love by doing some of my own research online. And thank God I did! My doula,…read moreKaren, was my rock throughout my labor and was 100,000 percent amazing--I'll definitely be working with her for my second! A little backstory: I was overwhelmed and so nervous about finding "the one" person to be a part of the most important event of my life. After doing my research and reading through all these bios, I honestly was left feeling overwhelmed, especially knowing how indecisive I can be. I knew I just had to trust my intuition and my gut on this one! After looking at Karen's bio on their website, I had such a good feeling. Staci (the owner), who was super friendly and professional, helped me get connected with Karen, and I booked an interview right away! Karen was so sweet and asked me about my pregnancy experience so far. We discussed how I wanted my birth to go and any concerns I had. There wasn't any pressure to hire her, and it just felt like she was already invested in me, like I was already family. I even had her video chat with my husband to make sure we both felt comfortable and vibed well together--and we sure did! Overall, Karen ended up being the perfect balance of knowledge, experience, and professionalism. It was the most perfect amount of care I could have asked for. She was also such an advocate for my birth plan to work out. Before, during, and after my labor and birth, she was always naturally in tune with what I needed. She was never overbearing, worked so well with my husband, and gave him space to be a part of my support team as well. I am so grateful to have come across Labor of Love

My experience with Labor of Love was almost two years ago now but continues to upset me when thinking back on my experience. We hired Lauren as our doula, who made it clear she expected us to go far past my due date as a first time mom. While it's possible for that to happen, it didn't in my case. At 39 weeks and at 5am while in active labor and getting ready to head to the hospital, she let us know she had Covid. Her backup was Karen, who I wish we hired to begin with as she is far more caring and professional. Though unfortunately our experience still fell short and we ultimately delivered without Karen present. We were left feeling like we invested a lot of emotion and money into this process with ultimately no help. Staci has been incredibly rude to us since then and even revoked our access to watch her training videos, sending me a link to pay her once again when wanting to rewatch for our now second baby on the way. Karen herself even recommended we ask for a partial refund due to our experience, but Staci lacks the professionalism and courtesy to her clients. Truly mindblowing that she revoked access to the training videos after we had already paid for them. I would stay far away and recommend a more experienced and caring doula group.
