Testimonials

MANDY

Tonya: We selected Mandy to be our Doula because we just seemed to click. She has a very comforting voice and calm demeanor, which was very helpful during the labor process. She was very supportive of our choices, even when we had to make a last minute change to our plan. We wanted an unmedicated birth but in a hospital setting, we delivered at Barnes Jewish and she fit seamlessly into the environment. She was always at my side with word of encouragement and I know she helped my husband to feel confident in the situation as well. She took some fantastic photos and videos of the labor and our family meeting our son. I am very sad to have to choose a different doula for our next birth since we have since moved out of state.

Courtney: The importance of Mandy's support and calm, strengthening presence during our birth can't be over emphasized. We had an absolutely transformative experience and credit much of that to having found just the right doula. Mandy came to us in sort of a round about way when our primary doula had to move unexpectedly and I now believe that Mandy was always meant to be our doula. It was fate. My husband can't sing her praises enough. He felt informed, supported and confident in his ability to help me through the experience because he had Mandy in his corner. Our birth was a dream experience and we really couldn't have had that without Mandy. She's amazing. 

ANDREA

Tiffani: Andrea was an absolute blessing at just the right time. She was so supportive, understanding and helpful. Our conversations before the big day as well as during enabled my husband to be a great support partner for our big day.  I not only ended up with my natural birth (which was my ultimate goal) but I also managed to do so even though they requested that I take pitocin to progress faster. There is no way that I would have been able to have the natural birth that I wanted without Andrea. She played a very vital and necessary role in making my dream a reality and I would recommend her services to anyone seeking emotional support throughout pregnancy, delivery and postpartum care. Andrea is absolutely an amazing doula. 

Mary: Absolutely outstanding! Andrea was an amazing support before, during, and after the delivery of our son. Before the delivery we met twice. The first time to learn more about her services and to see if it would be a good fit. The second time to provide resources, information on the delivery, and her role during that time. Andrea was available via phone and text prior and after the delivery. During the delivery Andrea was an amazing support and a huge blessing! So grateful she was there. She provided emotional support, many tools on pain management, and help with making difficult decisions by providing pros and cons. She was very knowledgeable on hospital procedures. Andrea also was present during my emergency c-section and kindly took photos for us. She was with us for over 18 hours and did not waver in her dedication. After the delivery Andrea visited our home and provided information, resources, and answered my many questions. Overall we are extremely grateful Andrea was our doula. We highly recommend her!
