Testimonials
When we started our pregnancy journey, we were not really sure about what a doula did or what role they played. When our midwife suggested that we secure one as soon as possible, us tending to be naturally informed consumers, we began to search. After doing research we began interviews. Though others were lovely, from the moment we jumped on a call with Hannah it was clear what a doula does. Your doula is your advocate and Hannah was our advocate from that day forward. She is a loyal champion for women's sovereignty in their pregnancies and their babies' births. She has done the work and continues to improve her knowledge on a daily basis. She has traveled to great lengths around the world to train with other incredible women in birth work. We had a home birth, and even under the circumstances that were mostly in our control, we cannot fathom having done it without Hannah. Had we been in a hospital setting, either by choice or by emergency, she would have been that much more important. She watched out for us, slowed the process down, and did it all with a sagely wisdom that she has crafted with experience from a long list of incredible women. There's no better combination of life experience and temperament and we can't say enough positive things about her. Hannah is kind, she is loving, and we are glad to say she is our friend.

There are no words to accurately describe the special attention and care we got from Hannah. From the moment we signed on with her until our last postpartum visit, Hannah has been there for us physically, mentally, and emotionally. Her resources and research were abundant and very informative, and no question was too big or too small to answer 24/7. When it came time for labor, Hannah came to us before she was “supposed” to, knowing I needed her support earlier than expected, and then stayed with us 36+ hours until the baby was born . I can’t recommend Hannah enough! You’ll be in the best hands!

Hannah, you have helped shape in beautiful form, the course of my postpartum, my story about this time, my corresponding next chapter, and subsequently, my life. You named the deep ancestral grief I was feeling crushed by of not being in a community of women to hold me in the weeks and early months after my baby’s birth and opened the door into that loving world for me that you stepped through every time you came. In your time with me and my family you created around me in your words, actions and presence- my village- mother, sister, daughter, friend, advisor, healer, baby tender, confidante, cook, witness. You held me figuratively and literally, as well as my husband and children. Grateful isn’t big enough a word to cover it.

Hannah was with our family for the first 6-weeks postpartum for our 3rd daughter - and she was absolutely fabulous! Hannah was so calm and gentle with our newborn, and got her to sleep like a dream! She was so helpful supporting our other postpartum needs - having her with us was invaluable! Our older kids also took to her - she was very kind and warm to them. Overall, Hannah is an amazing doula - caring equally for the newborn as she does for the rest of the family. I cannot recommend a more helpful, and supportive doula.

Hannah was so important in our birthing process. We signed up a bit late and she still provided all the necessary care in a shortened timeline. I went into labor a month early and she came right over. She was so attentive and was never overbearing. I would absolutely refer her to any friends or family and would highly recommend her for your birthing experience! Thank you!

“Hannah made my pregnancy, labor, delivery and postpartum so much better. She is extremely educated, humble, open minded, and non judgmental. She gave me the space to make my own decisions and made sure I was provided with all the necessary information to make the best decisions for myself and baby. She was flexible and adapted to what I needed. Hannah advocated for me and supported me in the most intense moments of labor and delivery. She gave me and my husband peace of mind and was always available to support us. I am forever grateful.”

“Hannah was an incredible doula and a true calming presence throughout my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Even though this was my second birth, Hannah's support for my family and I was absolutely invaluable. Her encouragement and expertise helped us navigate the entire process with joy and confidence. During labor, she provided comfort, reassurance, and hands on help right when I needed it most. On top of that, she makes a delicious salmon and potatoes--a much-needed treat for a hungry mama! If you're looking for someone who is caring, knowledgeable, and truly dedicated to your well-being, I highly recommend Hannah.”
