The best investment my partner and I made during my pregnancy was choosing Jill as our doula. I am a first time mom and the first of my entire group of friends to have a baby and am so thankful for the emotional/mental and physical support Jill provided throughout my pregnancy and labor/delivery experience. She was always there to answer any questions my partner and I had and ease any anxieties I had about becoming a parent. When I was in labor, she turned my hospital room into a cozy space with string lights/tea lights and told my partner and I stories that had us laughing through the night. She also made sure that I was an active decision maker in my hospital experience and made sure the staff knew and honored my birth plan. When it was time to push, Jill made sure that I stayed hydrated and cheered me on and helped keep me feeling encouraged and safe. We were listening to to 90’s/2000’s R&B when my daughter was born and with Jill and my partner in my room, it truly felt like a celebration. I had a wonderful labor & delivery experience and having Jill as my doula was an integral part of the support system that made that possible. I cannot recommend her enough!

It’s hard to find words that would equate to the way Jill made myself and husband feel throughout pregnancy and our birthing experience. She is the ultimate hype woman, a wealth of knowledge, a friend and the best support person. She made me feel so confident going into birth. She came over and spent time with both my husband and I beforehand to ensure we felt that way. Then day off - she made the room feel so calm and made sure it was perfect for us. She coached and cheered me on and made me feel like the ultimate bada** while pushing our sweet baby out. She helped remind us of the little things - like music to set the mood etc. she also took the most incredible photos of us that I cannot stop looking at. Jill is a friend for life. 

Jill was FANTASTIC! When we interviewed Doulas, the thing that stood out was her sense of humor and her balance between Western medicine approaches, and more midwifery-informed approaches. What was clear throughout: she is not there to judge any choice about the birth you want or the advice your provider gives, but to support your ultimate desires and well being above all.

​

From the moment we hired her she was always super available and we were in close touch about our plans when changing hospitals, dealing with Covid protocols, etc. she always weighed in accordingly and remained flexible and optimistic to the shifts we wanted and those out of our control. She had a wealth of insights as we put together our birth plan, helping inform our choices from an evidence-based approach while always respecting our vision and priorities.

​

We all made an amazing team, and together advocated for our vision every step of the way to end up having the type of birth we wanted. She was full of love, for us and our baby, from beginning to end, and we recommend her to anyone hoping to round out their birth experience with a grounded, supportive, knowledgeable and profoundly positive presence and energy!
