Our Clients Say
“Samantha was my saving grace during my pregnancy, birth & even afterward thru the struggle of the 4th trimester as she coached me thru my healing and gave me tips and confidence to tackle the newborn stage.
Being my first baby I was not only naive as to what to expect but I was petrified! Sam has such a calm about her and a way of explaining things that made me look at things from a different perspective & not a fear based one.
The meditation cards she created for me individually was such an unexpected surprise and I loved having them with me during birth to keep my mind focused.
Samantha is not just a doula, she serves from a place that is purely genuine, she became my friend and I felt so taken care of and in the most capable of hands. “

What happens if i have to have an emergency Cesarean?
In unforeseen emergencies that necessitate additional medical interventions, such as a cesarean section, it's common for support personnel to be restricted from entering the operating room. During these situations, I will stand by your partner's side, providing unwavering support throughout the surgery to ensure they feel accompanied and well-informed. Following the procedure, I will maintain the same level of support mentioned earlier, assisting you as you transition into the post-operative phase, establishing breastfeeding if you choose and and addressing any questions or concerns that may arise. Your comfort, well-being, and positive birthing experience are my top priorities.
