I first worked with Michelle during the birth of my oldest child in 2020. As a first-time mom, I…read morefelt excited about giving birth but also overwhelmed by all the unknowns. I wanted someone who could help me understand my options, prepare for labor, and provide support beyond what I expected from my medical team. Hiring a doula gave me the reassurance that I wouldn't have to navigate the experience alone. Knowing Michelle would be there to guide, educate, and encourage me made me feel much more confident and prepared going into my first birth. After that, having a doula, for me, was a non-negotiable. Michelle has been by my side for the births of all three of my children, and I can't imaging a birth without her. Each experience was so unique and different, but her support, knowledge, and encouragement were invaluable every single time. I wanted unmedicated births, and Michelle gave me the confidence, preparation, and tools I needed to achieve that goal. During labor, she knew exactly how to support me physically and emotionally, helping me stay focused and calm through some of the most challenging moments. When I doubted myself, she reminded me of my strength and helped me trust my body. What sets Michelle apart is that she doesn't just show up on the day of your birth. She invests in her clients, provides evidence-based information, answers questions, and helps you feel empowered to make decisions that are right for you and your family. Her presence brought a sense of peace and confidence that benefited not only me, but also my husband. She helped my husband understand my needs and how to be a source of strength. She guided him through ways to encourage and comfort me during labor, which allowed us to work together as a team and made the experience even more positive. Because of Michelle's support, I look back on all three of my birth experiences with gratitude and pride. If you're considering hiring a doula, I wholeheartedly recommend the Modern Momma team; they are compassionate, knowledgeable, professional, and truly passionate about helping mothers have positive and empowering birth experiences.

I want to share our experience honestly so other expecting families can make an informed choice. We…read morehired this doula for full birth and postpartum support, and we came to them through a trusted family referral -- which makes what happened even harder to understand. When my wife's water broke, we let the doula know and headed to the hospital. She was also told my wife was contracting. Despite knowing all of this, the doula never came and never once called to check in. We went through the birth of our son without the support we had paid for and counted on. What happened afterward was just as disappointing. Rather than taking responsibility, we were told it was our fault for not explicitly instructing her to come -- even though she knew we were at the hospital and in labor. Instead of accountability we were blamed for not "telling her to come" -- as if a laboring mother at the hospital isn't signal enough. When we asked to speak with the owner, no one had the courtesy to call us directly.

We cannot say enough great things about Ashley! She was everything that we each hoped we could get…read morefrom hiring a doula, and so much more. We hired Ashley for the birth of my second child, when I was attempting an unmedicated VBAC after a horrendous experience with my first birth. I knew I wanted labor support for this birth, but honestly hiring a doula was a little "crunchy" and outside of our realm of comfort. From the first meeting with Ashley I could tell that I was completely wrong! Ashley was so real and down to earth, and made us both feel completely at ease and prepared for our TOLAC and hopeful VBAC. During actual labor, Ashley came when I told her I needed her, and helped me to do relax through contractions and do some exercise to try to turn my posterior baby. We labored at home with her help for as long as possible, and when I felt "pushy" she got us to the hospital and into a room ready to have a baby! Her coaching through early labor, transition, and especially pushing was instrumental to my successful VBAC. She was amazing at addressing my fears during labor and made sure I was informed and felt completely in control the whole time, as well as kept my husband calm and helped him to be involved with helping me. After the experience we had, I would 100% recommend Ashley to everyone I know, and would have her by my side for all future births.  Thank you so much for our healing experience Ashley!!

I don't even know how to begin this review as I am in the midst of grieving the loss of our 16 week…read morebaby girl but it's important to me to express this experience, especially for any families going through birth or loss. I hired Kelly again after my first successful birth of my daughter in 2024. Since this time, I hired Kelly when I found out I was pregnant in May 2025. Unfortunately, in August we lost our little boy at 12 weeks gestation. I had delivered baby boy at home but Kelly was one of the first people I told, I remember her crying with me over the phone, this gave such comfort in that moment. She was just a text away to offer any assistance. I didn't ask her to be there, I was in shock and didn't know how to handle this experience at the time, I was just so focused on delivering at home and really didn't know what to expect, even though Kelly did educate me. She checked in on me through those hours and following days. She offered resources of miscarriage support and healing. In January we got pregnant again, Kelly was one of the first people I told. I wanted her to doula for us but was nervous to commit until after 14 week visit. She totally understood and gave me time to process. Everything had gone so smooth with baby's growth and development. I booked Kelly right after that 14 week visit, my husband and I were so excited to have her as our doula again. We saw our amazing OB, Dr. Hervey at my 18 week appointment and we were shocked and heartbroken again to find out we lost our baby girl. This time it was decided to deliver the baby at the hospital for safety reasons. I was extremely nervous especially as I was still healing from delivering my baby boy at home just 8 months prior. Kelly again was devastated, I asked her if there were any miscarriage doulas who could support us during this time. Without hesitation Kelly said she would be there for us in any capacity. I can't tell you how relieved my husband and I felt knowing Kelly would be there with us. I was induced at 9 am, Kelly checked in regularly throughout the day. By evening labor started slightly, felt like it was going to be awhile for this process to begin. Kelly showed up to the hospital and I instantly broke down with relief when I saw her. Once she arrived I could feel my body say, you're safe to have this baby now. She supported me through the tough mental moments of birthing our angel child. She cried with us, helped me stay hydrated and focused, got me into more comfortable positions and per my request, she took photos of our journey in that hospital room (actually the same hospital room we birthed my living child almost exactly 2 years prior) . Even though an extremely painful experience, Kelly met us with grace, love, and comfort and made my child's birth healing for us. A miscarriage birth is already hard and traumatic, let alone going through back to back losses. Kelly showed up in the most profound healing way. I didn't feel alone or scared. I always joke but I'm actually serious, Kelly is my pain control. Forget the epidurals or pain meds when Kelly is with you. We will get through it, we always do. Kelly you truly are a gift from God, supporting mommas and families through the beauty of child birth. You supported my family through the loss of our angel baby and gave her the dignified birth she deserved and you gave us the healing we didn't know we needed. The photos you took help us heal and remember that even through the darkness there is light, there is healing, and there is support. We didn't have to do this alone. Kelly Sunshine doula services are not just for live births, she supports families through all kinds of births, especially miscarriage loss. Don't go through it alone if you don't have to, I will never regret giving my two children a birth experience and grateful Kelly was the one who supported us through. We are forever blessed and grateful for your care.

The minute Kristen walked into our home we both felt a sense of calmness wash over us. Our baby loved her and felt so good, he never cried at night. Me and my husband on the other hand slept like babies! My maternal instinct told me Kristen is to be trusted fully and I was able to get such good rest when she was here (not the case with all other doulas I've had). She's also mega knowledgeable about everything baby and child related and cares genuinely about your family which is so important when you're at your most vulnerable. Finally she is extremely professional. Never once I felt like I had someone else at our home as her presence was both immensely supportive and ethereal at the same time- which takes serious skill. Hire her without hesitation.

However, I did encounter one very rude phlebotomist (the heavy-set Caucasian woman who worked in the small office near the bathrooms). Every single time she took my labs. Don't work in healthcare if you have a negative attitude. What truly broke my trust was what happened with my sister, who I referred here because I believed she would be well cared for. She suffered a miscarriage, and instead of providing compassionate and thorough care, the office repeatedly gave her medication to pass the pregnancy without success. Her concerns and fears were consistently dismissed with reassurances that "everything would be fine." Shockingly, they never performed an ultrasound to confirm that the pregnancy tissue had passed. This went on for months. Ultimately, my sister ended up in the ER, where it was discovered that there was still retained tissue, and that the baby had been inside her for three months. I am horrified that her life was put at such serious risk of infection and complications due to the negligence of this office. To make matters worse, one of the doctors even told my sister that "ultrasounds were too expensive" when she asked for confirmation that the tissue was gone. Because she is non- confrontational, she didn't push back, but the ER nurses were shocked at how poorly this situation was handled. The ER reviewed her medical notes and confirmed how severely she had been neglected. My sister ended up having to get a D&C at the ER where they pulled out A LOT of tissue. I am disappointed. For that reason, I will not be coming back. If I were ever to experience a complicated pregnancy or miscarriage, I know this office would not take my concerns seriously or provide the care needed. It is truly unfortunate, but I can no longer trust this place, and now I have to find care elsewhere.
