Jenny Corbett, Silver Spring Doula
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.

Who is the best obstetrician in Silver Spring?
Hands down, Dr. Randy Lizardo of Capital Women’s Care in Silver Spring. Dr. Lizardo provides compassionate, respectful care at Holy Cross Hospital. There are literally DOZENS of Capital Women’s Care locations, so if you are looking for Dr. Lizardo, you have to make sure you are going to the right office! You also have to understand that not everyone at this office practices in the same way, and not all the doctors at any practice share the same philosophy of labor and birth care.
The best way to get evidence-based care in our area is to go see a midwife! Fortunately, Silver Spring is an area that has access to great midwives, practicing in great hospitals. Learn more about the DC area hospital-based midwives and the midwifery model of care here.
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, and 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.
