Kathy was such an amazing source of support as a doula during the birth of our daughter.  As first time parents we were pretty shocked by how quickly an unmedicated birth starts to feel a little out of control and overwhelming.  Kathy helped keep us both calm (well as calm as possible during childbirth :) ) and made sure to explain everything that was happening.  I was unprepared for the fact that I forgot all that I'd learned about birth and labor during the actual experience.  Kathy was absolutely essential in maintaining a controlled and stable environment.  I don't know what we would have done without her.

We hired Kathy when I got pregnant with my second baby and was very hopefully for a vbac. So much research pointed toward the benefit of having a doula. After some convincing of my husband, he agreed and when we meet Kathy I could tell she was a good fit for us. Her attitude toward the importance of supporting all births and birth wishes was evident. She had no agenda toward a right or wrong birth, but she was knowledgeable and encouraging about asking questions and allowing ourselves time to make decisions if we weren't total comfortable. She was not only a constant support thought out my pregnancy, but I firmly believe was crucial to ultimately achieving the vbac I wanted despite going past my due date and a long, up and down labor, including one particularly negative doctor. Her presence though labor and delivery was absolutely the calm, collected, strong support that my husband and I both needed. And I do know too, that if for some reason I wasn't able to have the vbac I hoped for, that her support and strength would have been unwavering and would have gotten us through with my head high. My husband, who was like many and a bit skeptical at first, completely agrees. Kathy didn't replace any of his role at all, but supported both of us, plus went above and beyond. I cannot recommend Kathy more!!! Thank you so much Kathy!!

I highly recommend Kathy as a birth doula. I had a high risk pregnancy with twins and due to a footling breech, underwent a scheduled c-section. Kathy not only was a confident and soothing support for me but for my husband as well. She is skilled and professional in an OR /hospital setting and was able to act as a liaison between hospital staff, my family, and ensured my birth wishes were carried out. Everybody loved her. I ended up having a calm and wonderful birth of our twin boys. If we had any more complications there is no doubt in my mind she would have navigated the situation beautifully if the boys had any NICU time. Knowing she had my back before and during the birth made things progress smoothly. She also took some pretty amazing pictures! She is also quite the baby whisperer at her postpartum visit, I learned a ton from her!

Kathy came recommended from a family member, and I was very thankful to find her.  She was a immediate match with the style of doula I had in mind, and proved herself to be extremely thoughtful in anticipating needs, and giving her sincere kindness and friendly but professional support that I needed along the way.  In my 24+ hour labor she was quick to provide exactly what I and my husband most needed at every step of our journey, and she worked with us to learn about those needs in advance.  Even now, in the post-partum phase of my care she has offered herself generously and been of much help.  I would highly recommend Kathy's services to any of my closest friends without hesitation.
