Clients say…
Jenny was a wonderful doula for myself and my husband. Jenny was calm and supportive, and had a great sense of humor which helped during the difficult moments. Jenny never told us what to do, but she was able to help us think everything through so we felt more confident with our decisions. Through it all, she was a steady and calming presence. Both my husband and myself felt we really had an ally through our birth experience. I would recommend Jenny to anyone looking for a doula.

Let’s face it. Birth is weird
And everyone – from your mom to your doctor to your college roommate – has something to tell you about it. They all know what will happen, what has to happen or what can’t ever in a million years happen. But the fact is, a lot of that stuff they tell you is a myth, based on nothing more than tradition or provider preference. In this quick little guide, you’ll get an evidence-based overview of 10 common myths about labor and birth. Get a free copy for requesting a consult!

Jenny was calm and supportive, and had a great sense of humor which helped during the difficult moments. She helped us with the practical, such as making sure my husband took breaks and ate and keeping me cooled and hydrated, and she helped us as we navigated pressure for various interventions. Jenny never told us what to do, but she was able to help us think everything through so we felt more confident with our decisions. Through it all, she was a steady and calming presence. Both my husband and myself felt we really had an ally through our birth experience. I would recommend Jenny to anyone looking for a doula.

Jenny is a rockstar of a doula! I had a long, long, LONG labor, and to top it all off, it was a VBAC. I gave birth with the GW midwives, amd was at the hospital almost 48 hours before my daughter was finally born. Things didn’t go exactly as I hoped (I mean, who hopes to be in labor for multiple days, right?) and I ended up using pitocin and an epidural. Jenny was so supportive of me as I made these decisions. Jenny help me with all kinds of techniques to get the baby moving down. I felt empowered and in charge when I decided to move forward with interventions I hadn’t originally wanted. It was a night and day difference to my previous birth. She never wavered in her support; she never made me feel like she doubted my ability to give birth. Jenny’s support was invaluable.
