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.

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.

From the moment we met Coley, we knew we were in the best hands for our first pregnancy. She…read morebrought a sense of peace and reassurance that made our decision to have a home birth feel so right. Throughout the entire journey, Coley was there--answering every question, calming every worry, and never once making me feel like I was asking too much (even when I thought I was being annoying, haha). She guided us with so much knowledge and warmth, making sure we always felt safe and supported. Our delivery was long--being my first--but Coley never wavered. She knew exactly what to do, always reassuring us that everything was unfolding just as it should. Her confidence and care made all the difference, and I can't imagine having gone through it without her. Without a doubt, I'd call Coley again for my second pregnancy.

Our family is so grateful for the love and care Coley has given us. It was an honor to have her by our side during the most sacred experience of our lives. Coley, being on the other side and experiencing your care from the perspective of a birthing mother really makes me emotional thinking about how much you have impacted my life with your wisdom and loving heart. You are a true blessing to all the families you care for

This review is for Meghans doula service. Very long review-hope it helps:…read more I had my baby in 2017 - overdue review. Meghan was amazing at answering all my random questions as this was my first baby. I was looking for a doula to help me in delivering my baby naturally. I didnt want pytosin or an epidural so i interviewed a few doulas and Meghan sounded perfect. I didnt want a doula who would act like a doctor and argue with my ob during my delivery. I just wanted someone who would help me with managing the pain and to coach me while i delivered. I knew the pain was going to be bad and an epidural would sound great so i wanted someone to push me and remind me why i wanted a natural birth. From the day I meet with her up to the day i delivered, Meghan was amazing like i mentioned before. Quick at replying to texts, answering questions, just amazing so i was excited to know she would be present during delivery. The day i began having contractions she was on the phone repying back making sure i was ok. She showed up and everything was great. Of course as soon as i got to the hospital, the nurses offered pytosin which i declined. The pain increased and Meghan offered help with the medicine ball and other methods to ease pain. When night came and the pain was to much, i was disapointed that she just kind of sat back and watched. This is when i needed her coaching, her encouraging me to fight through the pain, that everything was going to be ok, that the pain would get worse but then better when id see my baby for the first time, helping me with my breathing something like that. The room i delivered at had ONE fold out chair for my husband to sleep in. She set up post and passed out in that chair. My poor husband had nothing to rest on but a standard plastic chair. I was in pain so i didnt find out about this until after i had delivered my baby and was home. In the end i did get and epidural and my birth did not go as i had hoped. She was there when i delivered my baby and was helping me with pushing. She took some amazing pictures that captured some beautiful moments which im forever grateful for. I do feel like hiring a doula was a waste of my money in that she didnt really encourage me and push me to keep going which is why i wanted a doula. I do understand it was my decision but thats why i hired her, to help me be strong. The contract also uncluded 2 postpartum visits, she only came to 1. The final visit we scheduled but she never showed up. I hope this helps anyone also looking for a doula. Would i hire her again, not for her doula service. Shes a very loving and caring person but not the strong woman i needed for a natural birth. Her salves are great. I cant really speak on the ecapsulation service sense i didnt get that.
