TESTIMONIALS

Kristi and her team are so kind and pleasant to work with! I reached out to the service to see if there was anyone available to help care for my toddler while I work from home, and have been so happy with the outcome. Katie started shortly after, and watches my daughter (2.5ish) and her cousin (2ish), both kids warmed up to her almost instantly! Her experience as a Doula and a mother is so clear, having someone I can truly trust has already been so helpful for my mental load. Very thankful for this service and Katie!!

I recently had the privilege of working with Your Birth Doula Services for prenatal and birth doula support, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for their exceptional service. My team (Kristi & Jill) went above and beyond to provide me with unwavering support, knowledge, and comfort that truly made my birthing experience as a gestational carrier unforgettable. They understood that this was a deeply personal and important journey for me, and they made sure I felt completely at ease throughout the entire process. Jill, my birth doula, was always just a text or a phone call away. Her guidance and reassurance were invaluable as I navigated the uncertainties and challenges of pregnancy throughout my surrogacy journey. Having her by my side during the birth was an absolute game-changer. Her presence was calming, and her encouragement gave me the strength to persevere through the most intense moments of labor. She ensured that my partner and I felt supported and informed every step of the way. Even after the birth, Jill continued to check in on me and offered postpartum support, which was deeply appreciated when things weren’t always the easiest. If you are seeking an all-encompassing doula support team that is tailored to your needs and delivered with genuine care, I wholeheartedly recommend Your Birth Doulas! Thank you SO much Jill & Kristi! :)

I reached out to Your Birth in preperation for my second and final birth. Kristi was so easy to talk to and relay my needs and nothing felt like "just business". Jill was my doula and was such a breath of fresh air for a racing pregnant mind and none of our interactions felt like I was being a pain. The end of my pregnancy hit a few nonpregnancy related health scares which ultimately led me to change my birth plan and Jill was nothing but supportive. She came to the hospital and immediately (but gently) jumped into being my true comfort. My husband even said she was awesome and he is a man of few words :). If you are on the fence about wanting a doula, just do it. The money you spend on comforting yourself will never be spent in vain. Thank you Jill!

I knew from the beginning of my pregnancy that I wanted a more natural, holistic support person with me throughout the labor & delivery process. My goal was a natural hospital birth (most importantly vaginal and not c-section) and since I was considered "high-risk", I wanted a combination of my chosen medical team and birth doula to help me through it. From the moment we spoke with Kristi, she was very knowledgeable and had such a calming presence that I knew we'd have a great shot at achieving our goal with her. She provided fantastic prenatal coaching and advice and expertise throughout my last trimester and was in touch with me daily in the last couple weeks before labor. During labor, my husband and I both appreciated her knowledge about positions, breathing, technique, etc. She also was great communicating with the doctor and nurses on our behalf when it was just too difficult for us to do anything but labor. In the end, she was not only an amazing support for me but also for my husband! He definitely was skeptical about the idea of needing a doula in the beginning, but he fully admits that he looked to her for direction and guidance to help him support me. In the end, I delivered a 9 lb 5 oz baby vaginally, and I love love love the entire birth story. I wouldn't change a thing about it. Thanks to Kristi and her team! We're also using the postpartum services for help now that we're home and need help at night for the first week while we try to care for the baby as new parents and also get some rest ourselves. Don't know what we would have done pre or post without Kristi and team!

Kristi was an amazing support through my first, high-risk pregnancy! She coached me through a long, difficult labor and 4 hrs of pushing. Her quiet, confident, encouraging demeanor helped my husband and I navigate untrod territory to welcome our firstborn. I really think I would have ended up with a C section, if it had not been for Kristi! She made my hospital delivery as comfortable as it could be. I will be forever grateful for her caring support in one of the most vulnerable and emotional times of my life! 💕 We will definitely hire her again, if we are blessed with another pregnancy.

The best decision we made to prepare for the birth of our daughter was hiring Kristi for postpartum care. I recommend Kristi to anyone I know having a baby as she has been there for me and my family more than I could have ever imagined. We had her sleepover and care for our first born starting on night 1 through 3 months old. We continue to keep in contact with her and will without a doubt be using her for baby #2. Her expertise, advice and support around all things pregnancy, birth, feeding, and postpartum have been so helpful and such a comfort. Kristi was also incredibly intuitive — she seemed to know exactly what we needed and we immediately trusted her. It is truly the best money ever spent. I was able to have a healthy recovery and I could get rest new moms deserve to be happier around their sweet baby. We would be lost without her and she has become part of our family!
