by Colleen S I just wanted to send my belated but very heartfelt thanks for all of your support during my recovery.

The Birth of Rowan & Samson
By Allison KG You were an excellent source of information as we prepared to bring our boys into the world. After finding out we were expecting twins and that the birth experience would be much more medical than we had originally hoped for, being able to navigate all of it alongside you was incredibly empowering. […]
Baby Will’s Birth & Postpartum
By Melanie C I wasn’t sure what specifically I wanted from my doula when I first contacted Elaine but I knew I wanted my labor, delivery and postpartum recovery to go differently than it had with my first son. I couldn’t put into words what I needed from Elaine but somehow she just knew. The […]
Hopes and Dreams for a Birthy 2015
2015 is looking like a veritable baby boom all over town. I’m feeling the good birthy vibes tingling down to my toes thinking about the wonderful families who have asked me to join them on this journey. I’ve eased back into this work after my maternity leave in 2014, taking only one family per month […]
Elliott’s Birth, December 2013
by Jen Scaggs We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect birth and I know that it was in part due to your support. The initial meetings were helpful for me to clarify my wishes for the birth. Also, thank you so much for the letter to Elliott. It was so sweet!

Sean’s Birth, Sept 2013
by Ellen Essex I am a first time mom and didn’t know what to expect about labor/birth. A friend recommended Elaine as a doula, and I thought I probably wanted a natural childbirth, so I decided a doula would be a good idea. Even though I wanted a natural childbirth, I was open to the […]
Zachary’s Birth, June 2013
By The Hellenthals When preparing for our first child, we decided to do all that we could to have a natural, low intervention birth. One step toward that goal was to hire a doula. After interviewing others, we knew Elaine would be the best fit for us as she came across as eager, knowledgeable, and […]
