What do clients have to say?

Watching my little brother’s birth at a young age sparked a deep (and rather romantic) interest in labor and birth. I read all the books, watched all the documentaries, and I knew I wanted a homebirth as soon as I became pregnant. As an introvert and very introspective person, I wasn’t sure I wanted a doula -another person attending my labor- but after connecting with Jen, I knew she was the perfect fit.
It was the best decision I could have made for me, my husband, and our new son. Jen’s intuition and support were invaluable, reading the room and supporting myself and my husband in ways we didn’t know we needed. She is an expert. She advocated for my dream birth and made sure I could focus on nothing but the connection with my baby and God’s plan for bringing him into the world. My husband even got to catch him. The most magical time of my entire life. I couldn’t recommend Jen and her team enough.

I CANNOT RECOMMEND WORKING WITH JEN ENOUGH!!!
Jen attended my water birth as our doula and also provided me and our baby with after care support, and lactation support, too.
The entire birth experience was SO EMPOWERING and positive.
It was truly the most empowering experience of my life.
Jen always said the right thing that I needed to hear... even though I was definitely nervous to do a natural birth (after using an epidural with my first baby).
Although she was not technically my birth midwife... she would be fantastic in that capacity as well.
She is EXACTLY the kind of calm, confident, loving presence you want at your birth.
She is SO knowledgeable about the birth experience, postpartum, breastfeeding, and newborns... we need more Jens in this world.
My husband and I cannot thank her ENOUGH for everything.

We found Jen in our search for a doula, I believe it was a Godwink. From the moment that I stepped into her office around 28 weeks pregnant, frazzled from a day not going according to plan, I was met with a calmness that’s hard to articulate. Jen was made to mother. She is a peaceful presence, warm, caring, funny, a great listener, and most importantly- extremely knowledgeable on all things birth. Our initial appointment quickly ran out of time and we knew we found the perfect fit for our birth team.
We attended her classes, both breastfeeding and empowered birth, and found them very valuable, even as second time parents. Our home birth went faster than anyone anticipated and Jen made it in time, in the middle of a snowstorm. Jen continued to be a calming presence for me through labor where we welcomed our sweet boy. She continued to support postpartum as well, providing our placenta encapsulation and CranioSacral Therapy for our son. We are so thankful to have crossed paths and will be her biggest fans for years to come.

Jen belonged at our birth. She melded into a chaotic space and brought peace, comfort, insights, laughter… she built a deep and trusting relationship within our prenatal appointments and stepped into the birth space with confidence, peace, professionalism and set a tone of joy, patience, and love. She rejoiced when I rejoiced and celebrated my baby’s sweet arrival. But she also saw me through all the chaos: she saw the doubts I had and had faith in me, she saw the huge answer to prayer that my healing birth was, she hooked her arm around me and said “you did it! Can you believe it? You did it!” I know the Lord brought her into my life for so many reasons, I knew that if my birth took a turn (as birth often does) and became more challenging, I would need a powerhouse presence to create a hedge of protection, autonomy, and grace around my birth. Our safety net, our damage control. She was exactly who we needed her to be for our family, she was our friend, our resource when we needed it, and she does it all out of love.

My wife and I had Jen as our doula through our birthing process. Having her on our team was amazing. She helped prepare us for something we had never done before and made us feel very confident. When it came time for birth, she came over when my lab outing wife asked. We had a long birth, and she was so important for the positive outcome we ended up having. Between making sure my wife was taken care of, making sure I was still doing ok, and the most comfortable transition period for my wife she was a rock star! After our little boy arrived she supported us with lactation consulting and man was she a godsend! After making a plan for us, we saw our little boy change and it was amazing! We are so glad we met Jen and so excited to have her a friend forever :)

Working with these women was a dream come true. I have 5 children and this birth was the best experience! I felt so supported and safe. They listened to my needs and helped me physically when I didn’t even know what I needed. I almost wish I was having one more so I could experience this again.

I chose to work with jen before I even met her. I could sense she had a warm personality just from her website and after talking with her on the phone for 10 minutes i knew she was the doula for me. I felt we had a lot in common concerning birth practices and this helped me to feel very comfortable with her. Jen is a very passionate and dedicated doula. im so pleased I was able to work with her during the birth of my son. I was so lucky to have her and my midwives supporting me in my home. I will recommend her to anyone that I know that’s pregnant! :)

Thanks to Jen, I was able to have my dream labor and delivery! When I first told my husband I wanted to look into doulas, he was skeptical because he did not understand what they did. After we interviewed Jen, we both knew she was the perfect match for us. She was so professional, friendly, and explained not only what she would do for me, but how she would be there to support my husband. From then on Jen stayed in contact with us. When it came time for our pre-labor meetings, Jen was wonderful in answering questions, explaining more about what she will do for us, and put together a beautiful birth preferences sheet for us. These meetings also gave us a chance to get to know one another better. When the big day arrived, Jen was there for us over the phone until we decided we needed her to join us at home around 2:00 am. Jen came and we both instantly felt more relaxed. Once we got to the hospital, after laboring at home a little longer, Jen went to work filling up the tub and hanging up my birth affirmations all over the room for me to look at. She was there supporting me and my husband the whole time. Jen worked so well with the nurses and doctor, it was beautiful to see such a supportive team around me. Once baby arrived, she helped me achieve our first latch and made sure my husband and I were comfortable before she left. We also used Jen for placenta encapsulation. They turned out beautifully and were delivered to us promptly. My husband is now a believer in doulas and suggests them to everyone. Jen helped me achieve my dream natural delivery in such a supportive, judgement free way. She was not only there for us during labor, but before and after. I honestly cannot say enough good things about her. We will never birth without Jen!

We had the awesome pleasure of working with Jen for our son. He is our second child.
We met with Jen prior to the birth and she gave us very thoughtful insight, asked great questions and listened to us. 
Jen arrived promptly at our birth, which went FAST, and helped each of us every step of the way! Having her there gave me such a sense of calm as this quick birth was so different from our previous birth experience! I remember being in a state of disbelief so much this time but a reassuring word from Jen really calmed me! While it hurt, it was a lot of fun, too!
Jen brings a ton of knowledge, lots of love and sooooo much passion for the work she does! It was a blessing to have her be with us as we met Arnold and became a family of four!
