Testimonials from clients get to the heart of why I love working with families during this important time of transition.

A few words from some of my clients:

Anne is amazing! Not only did I connect with her immediately during our phone call, but what I appreciated about her is that she is such a calm, practical, salt of the earth person that made my experience during a very difficult of time so reassuring. My husband and I were barely coming to terms with the notion of having a baby in the middle of the pandemic and having Anne be there not only during the birth but after (virtually) made all the difference. I was given the calm and confidence to push through a difficult labor during a difficult time because of her. I am so grateful to have had her as our doula. I really can’t imagine what it would’ve been like otherwise.

Panicked from a not-so-great doctor's appointment where induction became a very real possibility and medication was not going to be an option, I called Anne with just over a week until the baby was likely to arrive. I was nervous and felt like anyone I talked to would be an immediate "absolutely not. in a week?!" response. She called me back that same day, actively listened to me and immediately got engaged to get us prepared for an unmedicated induction. In the days leading up, Anne shared tools and information around induction and labor, and helped me put together a birth plan so I was prepared to advocate for myself. Anne was the biggest blessing during labor. In the throes of it all, she was able to coach me into different positions and apply pressure (mentally and physically) when I needed it - this was HUGE and allowed my husband to just be present for me.

Anne very clearly has a passion for helping families navigate childbirth - she is kind in her approach, nonjudgmental about your decisions, and an incredible advocate during those confusing and sometimes overwhelming times. Not to mention, she has a fantastic personality and kept me and my husband laughing. We felt loved and supported and had only known her for about 10 days at that point, a wonderful addition to any birthing team.

Anne is a wonderful doula. She is knowledgeable, supportive, caring and comforting. Right from our first conversation, I knew she was the doula for my family. She helped make my birthing experience a positive one and her presence was invaluable. I also really appreciated how she kept checking in on our family after my son was born. I highly recommend having Anne support you on your pregnancy and birthing journey!

Anne was amazing during my pregnancy days and postpartum. She was (and continues to be) available to answer my questions (no matter how trivial they seemed) and provide whatever support I needed at that moment. She had great insight on what to expect before, during and after childbirth giving me the knowledge I needed to prepare myself and feel confident in understanding the different things I might experience. After my daughter was born, she was there for breastfeeding support and was an advocate and full of tips on how to not only taking care of your little, but also take care of yourself which was really welcomed during this new and crazy time in my life.

As a first time soon-to-be Dad, Anne was there for all my questions and concerns anytime. She eased many of my fears and really instilled confidence in me from day one. She taught me how to help my wife and really took time to offer me guidance and support, as well. I am so glad we went through our journey with her in our corner.

From the first moment I spoke with Anne, I knew she was exactly the Doula I wanted (and needed!)! I immediately felt comfortable with her, like we had known one another for years. Anne is so kind, so compassionate, so supportive, and I also knew she would give me some tough love if I needed it! Couldn’t have done it without her, truly. Anne is now a friend for life!
