With over a decade of experience, here’s what my clients say:
“Doula Mae (Samantha) has been our doula for two of our births now. She provides an incredible amount of support and knowledge beforehand, but during labor it’s amazing how helpful, composed, and positive she makes the experience. We will not have any more babies without her there to support us!”
— Jeff H, Minnesota Dad“I’m so happy I had Samantha on my team for my second birth. I was able to give birth the way I hoped. My husband and I appreciated how she was not only professional and knowledgeable in pain management techniques, but also kind and, most of all, super encouraging at just the right moments.”
— Ann M, Second-time Mom“Samantha has been at two of my three births; she’s everything I need in a doula and, most importantly, a support person during labor. I would highly recommend Samantha to anyone considering a doula.”
— Alyssa P, Homebirth Mom
