Testimonials

“…She adapted very well to our baby girl and her needs, as well as my own, being a first-time mother with some chronic illnesses. I never once felt judged by her…” – Carrie & Jonathan

“At our initial interview, I felt so comfortable with Karrie. She is assuring, knowledgeable, and confident. She is down to earth, making it feel so natural in conversation. She had great resources to go over and a birth plan to help us prep. When I realized I was in labor, I texted her and she responded right away. She was supportive and encouraging via text by helping me track my contractions and giving me relaxation techniques. It was so helpful to have a sound mind to communicate with while being in such pain and stress. Once I decided I needed her with me at my home, she was able to come in a very timely manner. She was ready with some good pressure techniques to take some of the edge off. This helped immensely! Once at the hospital, she was able to advocate for me, support my husband, and encourage me through the process. I loved having Karrie with us through the process! She was comforting, and supportive, and gave me a good nudge when I needed it. I would highly recommend her to any expectant mother!” – Missy

“Karrie was a great emotional and physical support to me during my labor and somewhat-complicated delivery of our third child. She was with me every (literal) step of the way, into the late hours of the night and early morning as I labored. She guided me in trying a variety of movements and positions to change the position of the baby. Her calm presence and strength provided encouragement and comfort. She rejoiced with us when our baby was finally born! She checked in on us when our baby was just a few days old, as we were adjusting to our “new normal”. Her support during this time was invaluable! I highly recommend Karrie as a doula!” – Sara
