By Allison KG You were an excellent source of information as we prepared to bring our boys into the world.

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 […]
James’ Birth, January 2014
By Betsy Root I am so glad that we chose Elaine to be a part of our birth team. My husband, Tim, and I first looked into having a doula when I decided that I wanted to have an unmedicated delivery. I was confident we could do it, but thought we’d need some extra support and […]
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 […]

Asher’s Birth, February 2013
By Megan Hackworth I really appreciated the reading recommendations, birth plan exercise, and other prenatal info and having someone I could email with questions. I felt like you went above and beyond with the hypnobabies birth rehearsal – thank you! Your demeanor at the birth was very relaxed and go-with-the-flow and I really loved having […]
Beck’s Birth take 2, February 2013
by Gib Pennington Elaine was very prepared with labor support ideas (i.e. positions, techniques, etc.) and keeping our birth preferences in mind. She was also very good about making medical staff aware of our preferences in a respectful, timely manner! She was also willing to do whatever my wife needed in labor.
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 […]
