Client Comments

Just a note to let you know who much I truly appreciate you being there for S.  You are such an inspiration and I feel privileged to have worked with you. It's great to be around someone that is so passionate about their work.  The children you help bring into the world are off to a great start because of you.

Your prenatal visits were a precious time for us to reflect on our hopes for our daughter's birth at to really connect with each other and our daughter-to-be.  Your presence at her birth was calm and confident, which in turn, made us calm and confident in our decisions and allowed us to appreciate how amazing it was.  Thanks for everything!

In my darkest hour, you were calm and sensible. You don't know how important a doula is until you have gone through the birth process. Thank you so much for going through it with us. I still site you as the reason I made it through that experience without an epidural.

Thanks so much! You were great! We were so glad to have you along for the labor and birth, it made everything go smoother and things ended up exactly as we had hoped.

Thank you for your unbelievably great energy and enthusiasm, your positive unfailing support, and being there for me, for all of us, from the start and all the way through. Thank you for your guidance and supportive company, for much needed back rubs, and for listening so well. You massaged my back for 10 hours, through back labor and into a great delivery.

We couldn’t have chosen a better doula for the birth of our first baby. She met with us several times before his birth to answer our questions and to prepare us for the big day. Throughout the experience, she was supportive, responsive and understanding. She provided encouragement, patience, and knowledge throughout my 28 hours of labor! She was there for both my husband and I and made us feel at ease and in control. She provided information and respected our decisions. She has a friendly, positive personality with a big heart and a big smile. Thank you, Liz!

Working with Liz made a huge difference in our birth experience. She has such a warm personality and is so easy to talk to. It was incredibly helpful having someone there with the knowledge and experience to reassure us everything was progressing normally, and to ensure that I was as comfortable as possible.  We wanted to stay at home as long as possible, and without Liz we would have had no idea when to leave for the hospital. She was exactly what we were looking for in a doula.

You were an incredible source of emotional, spiritual, and physical support before, during, and after my labor. You encouraged me, made me laugh, you rightly intuited when my partner and I needed space, and you helped us navigate the hospital system. Ultimately, you made me feel more at ease and empowered to achieve my ultimate goal for a natural childbirth with no interventions ..and for that I will always be grateful!
