Robert William’s Birth, Dec 2015

By Kaci H When we contacted Elaine, we had no idea what to expect from a Doula, but she sat down with us and answered all of our questions.  We made the decision to go with Elaine and realized after our first official meeting that we made the right decision.  Our first meeting allowed us […]

Isaac’s Birth, Oct 2015

By Ashley W. Elaine was such a wonderful support to my husband and I prior to, during, and after the birth of our son. As first time parents we had a lot of questions during our meetings before giving birth. Elaine helped ease our minds and normalize our fears. She provided great education and activities […]

Breastfeeding as a Communal Event

photo by Leah Harms Photography I’m going to admit something here: last week I engaged on the internet with a man that simply couldn’t understand why mother’s “now-a-days” had to breastfeed in public. His claim was that breastfeeding is an intimate experience that should be shared between only the mother and the infant and that […]

Harrison’s Birth, June 2015

by Krisin M. Elaine is a compassionate and knowledgeable doula and, honestly, become one of our pals! She always came prepared with lots of material and backed-up everything she said with data. She never had an agenda other than making sure we got the care and support we wanted. We had a ‘plan’ but we […]

Isaac’s Birth & Postpartum, February 2015

by Colleen S I just wanted to send my belated but very heartfelt thanks for all of your support during my recovery.  In the hospital, you were a TREMENDOUS help in allowing me to process what had happened during delivery and were instrumental in helping me get a little rest in the hospital. Then, in […]

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 […]

A message for 2013

I’d like to thank all the mamas and papas that invited me to be a part of their birth team in 2013. It was truly an honor to see the birth of so many families and see others grow! I’m looking forward to more in 2014. I’m happy to announce I’m signed up for several […]

Keep Calm

And by “a doula” I mean ME! It’s never too early in your pregnancy to start your doula search. Please feel free to share my info with any couple you know that are expecting, even if newly so. Looking forward to supporting some summer and fall births.

Beck’s Birth, February 2013

by Katie Pennington Elaine was wonderful and I definitely recommend her as a doula for expectant parents. First, her prenatal visits were so beneficial in helping us to define our birth preferences. The process of planning for birth can be overwhelming, but Elaine was a great source of information to help guide us. We particularly […]
