Katie was there for the birth of my first son. I had big goals to give birth naturally, un-induced, without intervention, and unmedicated. I achieved my all dreams and beyond.

My birth experience was amazing and incredible and I owe some of that to Katie. I was texting Katie for hours before we met at the birth center. She sent me suggestions on ways to labor and cope at home. Katie stayed in touch every couple hours all night until I called her at midnight saying it's game time!

We feel very lucky to have had Katie as our doula. She is very calm, kind, and caring. I had a very fast labor and I have to attribute some of this to Katie--I call it the Katie Method! :) To summarize, she encouraged me to continue on with normal activities through early labor, encouraged me to stay relaxed, and then she encouraged me to labor sitting backwards on the toilet. I went from about a centimeter dilated to delivered in less than 2 hours!

Katie was amazing. She’s the exact kind of person you want in a doula! My birth experience was one of those you don't think will happen to you: I was induced 2 weeks early due to sudden elevated BP. My entire pregnancy up to then was flawless, no issues, no sickness, totally healthy mommy and baby the whole pregnancy, until my 38 week appt when my entire birth plan out the window.

Katie was our doula for the birth of our first daughter in December. We were so grateful to have her on our birthing team. At first my husband was unsure about hiring a doula but once we met Katie he quickly changed his mind. To be honest there were so many things that I was completely clueless about when it came to delivering our baby. Katie provided us so much helpful information and encouraged us to make our own decisions that were best for our family. We truly appreciated that!

We chose Katie to be our doula when I was about 6.5 months pregnant. We had finished baby/birthing classes and decided the we'd both benefit from a doula! 

Our time with Katie was really helpful! As first time parents, we had no idea what to expect from labor/delivery, but Katie asked great questions and made us feel as ready as we'd ever be!

I worked with Katie for the birth of my two daughters. One was a home birth and the other at a hospital. Katie was a godsend in both cases. I see this not only because of the comfort she provides and the knowledge she has. Because, Katie's presence was comforting. There aren't too many people when they are physically present you feel a sense of peace. Katie brings that into the delivery room. She is patient, focused and above all supportive.

We really loved having Katie as our Doula. I (Christine) loved how Katie really cared about what we wanted for the birth. She was a great source of evidence based information and was there before, during, and after labor as a source of encouragement and comfort. Her experience and peaceful presence were awesome and a big part of having the kind of birth we wanted!

Katie was a god send for me and my family. I don't know what I would have done with out her. She was professional, knowledgeable, caring, empathetic. words do not describe her. All I can say is my birth experience went well because of her. I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you Katie.

My experience with Katie was a true blessing to myself and my family. Never having a Doula before with our first child i wasn't sure what to expect but Katie was able to help us all through it. From our first visit to the birth of our daughter i was able to always count on Katie for advice, support and anything else I needed for our big day. The knowledge she gave us before the birth was what we could expect and what she could give us was comforting.

From the first moment we met Katie, she made us feel comfortable and reassured. We liked her calm and knowledgeable demeanor, and her unflappable support. Originally I had a plan for a low-medication, low-intervention birth, but health issues forced us to pivot quickly, with an induction needed. Katie was wonderful at helping me adapt my birth plan for the new circumstances, and helped me feel less worried about the change of plans. 

Katie was a wonderful doula for us. She was the doula for both my now two-year-old and my six-month-old. We asked her to be our doula for a second child because she did such a phenomenal job at our first child's birth. Katie made me feel safe, comfortable, and loved all throughout prenatal, postpartum and of course during labor and delivery. Both times she came to our house to help us get to the car. Her gentle and kind spirit made for such an inviting relationship right away.

I cannot recommend Katie enough! We hired her to help with the birth of our first baby, especially with pain management since I was going med-free. Katie was very thorough before the birth with helping us prepare with labor positions, stages of labor, etc. A huge plus was helping me know when to go to the hospital; she definitely saved us a trip when I had prodromal labor for an entire day. When everything started happening at the hospital, Katie came and was an absolute life saver! She was there for me as much as I needed during labor, which was also nice to reduce some of my husband's stress.

My husband and I recently chose Katie as our doula to attend the birth of our daughter. Having had a long labor and difficult birth resulting in NICU time with my son 3 years prior (without a doula), we had a lot of fears and concerns with going through another birth.

We are so happy with our decision, as Katie met and exceeded all of our expectations! Prior to my delivery, she was always available to answer questions and would check-in frequently to see how I was doing. She went above and beyond to address all our concerns and help us formulate a birth plan (and even a back-up plan) which resulted in a very smooth, complication-free delivery.

Katie is awesome. I am so glad to have made her part of my birth plan. The in person meeting we had at my house in the beginning got me on the right track with Katie making me aware of different sources and sharing sites with me I didn't know about. Then she came to my home to help move labor along and offer support as it got closer to delivery.

I cannot even begin to express fully my gratitude and appreciation for Katie as a doula. Peaceful doula is exactly the vibe she gives! I have always known about doulas etc. And they have volunteer ones at hospital births for many but I was new to hiring one separately on my own. I was going through some major life events/tragedies on top of being pregnant, and I was up late one night just searching and happen to stumble upon her business and sent a message on a whim. She pursued me back and made the exchange SO simple and easy. She answered all my questions and explained the process and anything I was uneducated/unaware of.

Katie was Godsend to us right on time. She empowered me to know my rights and to make the right choices in preparation for our baby. I was weak and on partial bed rest. She encouraged me to take yoga classes and do other simple exercises. That’s when I discovered I could do things I thought I was too weak to do. When I almost failed to decide on accepting an induction, she asked if it was okay for her to pray with me. We prayed and the baby came naturally a week before induction–AMAZING!
