"Getting a doula wasn’t something I always knew I wanted but now after my experience with Jenn we will definitely be using her for our future pregnancies as well!" -Lauren

"Hiring Jenn as my doula was honestly the best decision I could have made for my pregnancy and labor. She helped me so much during pregnancy and was always available to answer all my questions. She helped me with my birth plan and took detailed notes on everything that was important to me during my delivery. She offered so many tips on how to naturally encourage labor when I went way past my due date. On the day I went into labor, Jenn was with me for nearly 24 hours in my hospital room. She provided hours of counter pressure, massage and heating pads for relief during my contractions which helped immensely. She was my biggest cheerleader and supported every decision I made regarding the birth of my daughter. From our first conversation, I knew she had the kind of energy I wanted around for my labor and felt an instant connection with her.  Jenn truly is the best there is. When we get pregnant again, we hope to have Jenn as our doula." -Lesley

"There are not enough kind words to say about Jenn and what she meant to my pregnancy journey and labor/delivery. She was a God send for my husband and I. She makes you feel like you have known each other for years and that kind of comfort for such a personal moment in life is priceless." - Jenna

"Jenn was such a gift to have at the birth of our first child. We would highly recommend her to anyone in the Charlotte area looking for a reliable, friendly, resourceful, and experienced doula. We wanted someone who would not only cheer us on, but fight for us. Jenn is very professional, yet down to earth. The resources she provided on each trimester, what to pack for the hospital, how to induce labor naturally, and frankly the dozens of podcast episodes were so helpful for us in preparing. We had a great and thorough prenatal visit to go through many details for our labor. Her presence for our labor allowed my husband to be fully present with me without having to "decide" what to do next; she advised him how to support me the whole time. Her encouragement along with her gentle cues that we were progressing well helped me endure through my first labor with confidence and hope. She also took some photos of our labor that we will forever cherish. I could go on, but the summary is Jenn is great - I highly suggest her as your birth doula." -Anna

what our families are saying!

"Adding a doula to our birth support team was one of the best decisions we made with our second child. Although we didn’t make the decision until 36 weeks, adding Mariana as a support person was 100% the best decision." -Amanda

'Mariana was amazing! Mariana made herself available to me when I had any questions during my pregnancy and was a huge comfort and great resource while I was in labor. We loved having her as our doula." -Rachel 

"Mariana was amazing explained all the options the hospital might give me and gave me a clearer idea of what the day of will look like. Mariana was there to help keep me calm and supported (even in the middle of the night) through the process and helped my husband feel empowered on how to be there for me throughout. She took amazing pictures/audio of the birth and I am forever grateful and so glad to have those memories saved forever. She brought a beautiful gift and a meal for my postpartum visit and answered any questions I had and reassured me that we were doing a good job.. I could not recommend them enough!" -Ruth

Jenn was the best decision we made for our pregnancy. With her help and guidance, I was able to have an unmedicated VBAC after a very traumatic induction/c-section with my first child. She is a wealth of knowledge and really gifted at what she does. She enabled my husband with the tools to be a strong support to me during labor, empowered us to ask questions and be able to have the birth experience we so longed for. If there is one thing you do for your pregnancy hire Jenn to be your doula. You will 100% love what she brings to your birth experience." -Bethany

"My husband and I worked with Mariana and it was the best experience. My first pregnancy had a number of hurdles which resulted in a scheduled c-section. Going into my second pregnancy, I knew that i wanted to VBAC and that a doula would make that much more likely. Thanks to Mariana, we were able to reach our goal of having a VBAC. She took a video that recorded my son’s first moments in the world and beautiful photos in the moments after that we will treasure forever." -Casey
