They showed us exercises to work on then at 7 months and exercises  to work on during labor and they were very helpful and kind. Bri was with us when I went into labor at home and because of a Florida law after waters breaking if you have a home birth and 12 hours have passed you have to relocate to the hospital to give birth. Bri was so kind enough to come with us to the hospital and stayed for the whole process including my unexpected and unplanned c-section. Not only was she knowledgeable with any questions we had in the hospital but she also gave us a sense of calm and care that we so needed during that stressful time. Bri even suited up and supported us in the operating room during the surgery. Bri even stopped by our house before we got home to drop off the placenta. Bri came to our home for a follow-up visit a few weeks after our Jack was born to answer any questions or concerns we had and to see how we were all doing. We are so lucky to have had Bri on her side and appreciate her so very much! Marie came to our home for the childbirth education course. She pulled up her slides on her computer and we connected it to our television. It was incredibly helpful to learn both home and hospital birth situations as I mentioned above we had to relocate to the hospital and make some very tough decisions. This was a two-part course so Marie came to our home on two separate occasions. Marie was also there to answer any questions we had about the birth and when baby arrived and how to care for him. If you're looking for a doula team you must choose One Love Doula. They won't disappoint. They are knowledgeable, easy to work with, come to your home, and they are very sweet and compassionate and go above and beyond the call of duty. We love One Love! -Rachel, Alex, and baby Jack

On our First meeting Yamel made me feel at peace, provide me with so much information that my fears went out the window, at that moment I knew I was going to have this Angel(Yamel) care for my family to be. Yamel is very professional, knowledgeable and caring. Her prices are very reasonable for the services that she provides which is excellent, I HIGHLY recommend one love Doula services for all the mommies out there.

She was very respectful of our needs and wishes and had great communication with us throughout the whole process. Without Jennifer's knowledge and care, we definitely would not have had an amazing experience as we did bringing our daughter into the world. We also attended a birth class at Buddha Bellies with Paige and really enjoyed it! The class was very informative and Paige was very friendly and explained things well.

As we don't have family in the Tampa Bay area, for our first pregnancy/childbirth experience, we…read morewanted to hire a birth doula. After seeing so many great reviews and recommendations for Buddha Bellies, we booked the birth and postpartum doula services and honestly couldn't be happier. You get a pair of birth doulas to ensure one is available for when you give birth. Both were knowledgeable, friendly, and super supportive throughout my pregnancy. After an initial zoom call to get to know each other, we had a group text chat to check in and answer any questions I might have. They also suggested things to bring to the hospital, like an essential oil diffuser that really helped me and the nurses loved. My on-call doula on the day my son was born was Susan, and she was a lifesaver!! She arrived at the hospital promptly (despite living an hour away) and helped keep my husband and I calm. My husband had to leave for an hour to bring our dog to his boarding location, and so I was so grateful I had Susan with me during that time. I tried to give birth without an epidural, and her magical massages literally saved me and brought me to 6cm dilated. At that time, I decided I definitely did want/need an epidural, and she was very supportive of my wishes. She honestly felt like she became family that day and was so dedicated to my comfort. I can't imagine having done this without her. We're now onto the postpartum doula phase, and while we just started with our overnight care, we are SO glad that we made the decision to have a postpartum doula (kind of like a night nurse in this scenario). So far, it has been absolutely wonderful--the doula is very caring and loving to my baby boy and gives me a few extra hours of sleep each night, which is invaluable. As newbie parents, she offers advice and reassurance that things (like infant gas!) are normal. We are able to sleep soundly knowing that our son is safe with her in the other room! The Buddha Bellies support staff have also been excellent. It was very easy to be matched with and interview doulas--we hired ours on the very first try, as they were all of amazing quality, friendly, and with great experience/reviews. We cannot recommend them more!

I can't say enough good things about Charlie. I was planning my second home birth when I found out…read moremy baby had some health concerns and would need to be born in a hospital. I started calling home birth midwives for doula referrals, and I was so lucky to connect with Charlie. She truly brought a piece of the home birth experience into the hospital room. Charlie was a fierce advocate, not only for me, but also an incredible source of support for my husband. She brought a sense of peace and calm to what felt like a very unknown and overwhelming situation. I felt completely safe with her by my side. Charlie helped us talk through every decision, making sure we felt informed and confident in our choices. Her support didn't end after the birth either, she consistently checked in postpartum and continued to care for our whole family. I truly can't recommend Charlie enough. She is an amazing, steady, and calming presence. Whether you're planning a home birth or just looking for strong, compassionate birth support, you are in the very best hands with Charlie. Her care extends beyond just mom, she supports the entire family.

I'm currently in the process of taking Barefoot Birth to court for money I prepaid for their…read moreservices. I made a prepayment before 36 weeks and it is not being returned. I informed them I would be transferring care at 32 weeks. I told the owner that I would pay for any prenatal appointments I went to, but she made a bill with fees I was not aware of. My invoice was the exact amount I prepaid which is very suspicious. The invoice even said my $500 deposit was a charge for some reason instead of applied to my balance like the contract states. The invoice seemed to be made in a rush and its purpose to zero out my account so they could keep my money. I will add my entire experience after court. In the meantime, if you choose this midwifery, ask them to outline their fees and what you owe after every appointment to avoid this. Overall disappointed with Charlie's (owner) handling of this issue.

We ending up needing just about every medical intervention possible (induction due to pre-eclampsia, epidural, c-section, and more), and Rachel was a rock star through out everything.

We could not be more grateful that Rachel was with us on this beautiful but difficult day. We would highly recommend her if you are hoping for a natural birth or not!

When I toured the facility, I had the chance to meet the owner and lead midwife, and the peaceful energy I felt there really helped shape my decision. I knew I was in the right place.

I got a call back from the their office shortly Ofer my ultra sound to hear some not so good news that I am now high Rick pregnancy and I'm not able to have care at their facility, then they went ahead and set me up to get further testing and I love that they took it upon them selves to do that for me instead of call me and have me deal with it all on my own.. If I wasn't high risk I would've definitely had my baby here with these amazing women.

I really like her holistic ideology. In a twist of events Zul wasn't able to deliver my baby due to various moms being in labor at the same time. However, her commitment to my care was unparalleled. She came after she was done delivering that baby and took over my care. It was everything I thought having a midwife would be.
