TESTIMONIALS

Melissa, aka Wonder Doula, assisted my quick birth at home. I chose her not only because she is also my sister-in-law, but because her presence is uplifting, empowering and joyful. She helped me connect to my own strength and wisdom during my labor, yet intuited what I needed in every moment. She was able to step in and make suggestions when I didn't know what I needed, yet gave me the space to follow my own intuition. She showed my husband (her brother) new ways of being supportive, and meshed really well with my midwife and birth assistant.
The day after the birth, she came over and helped me troubleshoot my breastfeeding issues with an unparalleled gentle confidence, which was crucial to my own confidence.​
She held my baby while I showered and napped, waking up to a clean kitchen. She was invaluable to my birth experience and I would choose her a hundred times over! And did again, as we are expecting again! ​​

Melissa, your acts of kindness and giving heart will never be forgotten by Laura and I. The bond we have words cannot describe. We wish you life, love, and happiness. God Bless! Thank you for being there for all FOUR of our babies births.

Thank you, Melissa, for all the emotional and physical support you gave us during Raunak's arrival in this world. Your presence and support made our childbirth experience exactly how we would have asked for. Hiring you was the first best parenting decision we took for Raunak!

Many years ago an old lady in Italy told me that each baby arrives with “a loaf of bread under their arm”. Part of the abundance Victoria brought into my life came as your friendship. I knew you were my doula the minute I heard your voice on the phone. You are a wonderful woman and I feel blessed for having had you by my side during the most special moment of my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. P.S. The picture you took of Victoria just born in the pool is my dad’s favorite - he shows it to everyone! :)​

Thank you Melissa for your guidance as we entered into a new chapter jof our lives! There is so much to say because you provided so much for us. Thank you for mediating in the labor room and making that day more gracefull and less stressful. I appreciated the encouraging words and shoulder rubs to calm me. I think what I appreciate the most is empowering us to be confident! Thank you as you advised Paul with how to coach me. Thank you for everything! Too much to say!

Thank you so much for being a part of Fiona's and Jordan birth stories. You helped ease our fears through preparation, and served as strength and support during Fiona's long and difficult labor and delivery, and helping me have a VBAC with Jordan. WE can't imagine how things would have been without you there. We will always love you for sacrificing time from your family to help us become ours.​

Thank you for being with us. We felt cared for and supported the whole way through, and when the decision was made to have a c-section, we found our calm because you were right there with us.

There are not enough words to explain how much it meant to me, Carl, and Makena to have you be a part of our birth experience. I was always at peace through every surge knowing I had such amazing support. It was just as empowering as Warren's birth, but honestly, it was even more empowering doing it again the way I envisioned. Thank you for reminding me I had a voice and to use it when it came to my care. Mostly, it reminded me to trust myself, my body, and my baby. You are such an amazing person and you have truly found your calling. I am so honored to call you a friend also. I look forward to continuing to grow as friends and for Makena to have more wonderful women like you in her life. From the bottom of our hearts, Thank You!
