Her empathy and encouragement went above & beyond what I thought would be provided. The late night calls and early morning visits were comforting to say the least. She has a calming and supportive way about her that provides peace in such a beautifully chaotic journey. The educational knowledge provided was informative and empowering, as a mom wanting to make the best possible medical decisions. Highly recommend her to anyone, it's reassuring to have such an empathic advocate on your labor team. " - Asili G. Baby girl born 11/18/24

I met Liz when I was just a few months pregnant. I knew I wanted a Doula and planned to meet with…read morea few and see who I fit with best. From the moment I met Liz, I knew I didn't need to meet anyone else. I loved her, and was so excited to be working with her. She came over to my house a couple times, and she provided me so many great resources for before and after my birth! She was always so helpful whenever I had any questions, and I had a ton! When it came time for my son to be born, there was meconium in the water, which led to a c section. I was scared for my baby, Liz was right there holding my hand while I cried. She waited at the hospital with my husband and I for hours. It was like my best friend was there. After my son was born (11-23-19) Liz took my placenta for encapsulation, and came to my house a few days after his birth. We talked about the birth and she gave me a beautiful placenta print, my sons dried cord, a picture of my placenta, and my placenta pills. Liz is so kind and genuinely caring. She is meant for this line of work. I cannot think of a better person to have had by my side through my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I highly recommend her as a doula, and most definitely for her to encapsulate your placenta.

She picked up the placenta within hrs of delivery and dropped off the pills, a print of my placenta, dried heart made from the cord and an herbal sitz bath directly to my house. She emailed me directions for use and followed up with me a couple days later to confirm I didn't have any questions and didn't have any side effects from the pills. I would definitely recommend her to anyone I knew looking for placenta encapsulation and suggest her for anyone looking for her other services.

AMAZING arrivals could not be a better name! Taryn and Diana are both absolutely incredible! The…read morebest choice I ever made for the birth of my first son was to hire them. They immediately made us feel comfortable at our first meeting. Both are warm, sincere, and obviously love what they do. They really helped educate, prepare, and empower us throughout my pregnancy. Our birth went according to our birth plan, with Taryn beside me as my advocate at Loma Linda the whole time. It was the most amazing and empowering experience, and not having to worry about making sure the staff followed my plan took a HUGE stress off my shoulders so I could focus on birth and bonding. Every single wish was honored. Taryn continued to be a valuable resource after, making my placenta capsules, assisting with breastfeeding and new mom questions, even coming over just to rub my feet! I sincerely think that the high number of interventions (drugs, complications, C-sections, etc.) would drastically reduce in this country if every woman, especially first time moms, had access to a personal doula. Absolutely 100000% worth every penny!! Even though I know the ropes this time around, I was honored to ask Taryn to be my doula again as we prepare for our second baby.

Diana was such a blessing to both my husband and I. After 4 vaginal epidural births I decided I…read morewanted to make my 5th and last birth, a non medicated hospital birth. I knew I would need the help of a Doula to achieve my goal. After meeting with several other Doulas it took one meeting with Diana (and Terryn) and we knew they were the right fit for us. Diana was immensely helpful throughout my entire pregnancy. Always knowledgeable and helpful no matter what my concern was. From sending me a yoga DVD when I wanted to start exercising to coming over to massage me when I had a pinched nerve Diana was always just a phone call or text away. My labor was unexpectedly fast and Diana was there to help and stayed calm even during an unplanned home birth. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for knowledgeable and caring Doula in Southern California.

I am so happy to have found Amanda! My family and I absolutely love her, and I would recommend her…read moreto anyone planning a natural birth. Her passion for what she does shows, and she'll care for your baby like her own. This was my second birth, and when compared to the coldness and unfamiliarity of the hospital, I can't imagine giving birth any other way! I also want to mention that Amanda is prepared for hiccups. My baby got stuck in-between my legs, and Amanda was calm when helping baby and I get through it. She managed to untangle the cord, encourage me to continue pushing, and grab the resuscitator incase baby needed it. Amanda works calmly, swiftly, and effectively. Also, I'm convinced my baby already knew who she was! Baby could recognize her voice, and Amanda's loving energy because she was/is as calm in Amanda's arms as she is in mine. If we were to have another baby, we wouldn't hesitate to call her. She's worth every penny and much more. She is such a genuine person. Her support does not end the day baby is born, she continues to check in on the well-being of you and baby. I feel so fortunate to have had her as my midwife!

When I became pregnant with my second son I knew that I wanted a natural home birth after feeling…read moredisregarded during my first son's birth at the hospital. I did a little research and spoke to 3 midwives. However there is something special about Amanda and choosing her as my midwife was a no brainer. For one, she offered to have our first meeting at my house. Second, upon meeting her, she had such a calm demeanor and soothing voice that my worries and anxiety regarding a home birth went away. From then on my interactions with Amanda became more meaningful. I always brought my first son to all my appts and Amanda was so sweet at letting him play with her stethoscope. During these appointments she talks to your baby as she is checking baby's heartbeat. She looks at your health holistically, and even allowed to me to talk about stress and worries that I was experiencing at the time. I feel this was so important for my overall pregnancy health. The day I have birth I was already experiencing intermittent labor and my water was leaking out. Amanda came over and offered different options on how to get my labor to progress, and was so patient with me as I was able to dictate what I wanted to do and not do. She gave me the space to listen to my own body. She was incredibly patient and calm and guided my husband and I every step of the way. And let me remind you, her voice is so soft and soothing that when you are in the thick of labor contractions, she is all you will want to hear. Several hours later, my son was born and Amanda was by my side! Amanda is truly a caring person and it is evident that she loves what she does. Her energy is so warm and inviting. When my baby met her, he just melted into her, as if he knew her. This entire experience was nothing short of incredible for me, and I really have Amanda to thank for that. I encourage anyone looking for a midwife to consider Amanda.

I always knew I wanted to have a natural and beautiful birth experience. When I found out I was…read morepregnant with our first baby, I instantly researched for doulas and natural ways to have the best birth plan for us. I had a couple of friends rave about their doulas and how awesome of support they were for them. I can't thank Toran enough for joining us in our journey. She was such a support with such a sweet, calm, and caring spirit about her. The day I went into labor she did not hesitate to make me feel at peace and reassuring me that I wasn't alone. She guided me through different coping methods and made sure I was being constantly taken care of. She never left my side during my 12 hour delivery. Toran was such help in making the labor progress quickly. With all her suggestions using the medicine ball, pressure points, different positions I truly feel like it sped up my delivery time. I love how she made sure my husband and I worked as a team. We are so blessed to have had such an awesome support and she made my birth experience so beautiful. I highly recommend Toran. She is so gifted at what she does and you truly can feel her love of helping mommas and daddies have such an amazing connection to their pregnancy and birth story. Thank you Toran so much for everything, we hope we can stay in touch and continue this beautiful relationship. Her services are priceless and a story we can share forever!
