by Jana F. Sometimes as a doula we are called to step in to a birth for another doula when she must be elsewhere. It’s one of the ways we make sure we have our clients covered no matter what! I’m sharing a few kind words written by a mother that had my support as […]

Marian Elaine’s Birth, Sept 2015
by Sarah S. Elaine was amazing! I felt fully supported and prepared to try for my natural birth! This birth was so much different from my first, and I wish I would have known about doulas my first time in labor. Elaine not only supported me, but she taught my husband how to support me […]
Nurse Review, Sept 2015
In an effort to be accountable and professional, I receive reviews from nurses at births I attend as part of my affiliation with Central Ohio Doulas.

Danica’s Birth, June 2015
by Laura M Elaine from Columbus Birth Arts was our doula and she did an excellent job! She was there to help prepare us for the birth of our first baby. She did a few pre-birth meetings with us that really helped prepare us for what labor and delivery are like. Then she was there […]
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 […]
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. […]
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 […]
