Testimonials
"Lydia is a positive, calming and knowledgable doula who truly loves what she does. She showed me an extreme level of compassionate empathy during the birth of our first child. She truly understands that natural childbirth is difficult and painful. She helped me and my husband feel safe by ensuring us that the pain was healthy and purposeful. Lydia supported my birth plan, provided effective comfort measures, and worked well with my husband and the midwife/nurses. Lydia was an invaluable part of my birth team! Highly recommend!"

"After a traumatic experience with a non-medicated first birth, Lydia worked with me from the very beginning of my second pregnancy to create healing. She offered emotional and professional support and resources whenever I had questions, concerns or just needed to talk. When labor started, Lydia entered our home and immediately began so many amazing comfort measures and held a space of peace I cannot explain. She encouraged me through each contraction with counter pressure and breathing techniques that allowed me to labor at home for eight hours with my husband and eighteen month old daughter. She helped me consult with my midwives when deliberating an ideal time to head to my birth center. We arrived to the center and to my surprise I was ten centimeters dilated and ready to push. Fifteen minutes later, our baby boy was born in the water into the most peaceful, beautiful atmosphere. Because of Lydia I had the absolute birth of my dreams. I cannot thank her enough and recommend her to any and all Mamas hoping for a healing, peaceful, amazing birth story. Bonus: she took some amazing photos of my labor and birth that I will cherish forever!"

“I leaned on Lydia for support and advocacy as a high risk, first time mamma. She helped me make informed decisions about providers and encouraged me trust my body when any complications arose in pregnancy. During labor and delivery her peaceful demeanor calmed and reassured me that my body was doing exactly what it was supposed to be doing, pain and all.
Achieving my natural hospital birth was an experience I look back on fondly and proudly! I attribute the positive associations I have with child birth to Lydia’s comfort measures and fear clearing exercises!”
