What families say
Marlene has so much love for birthing women. She is supportive of your birth choices and believes in the strength of women's bodies. She has helped me navigate my choices in pregnancy. She's a sweet, wonderful mother herself.
Marlene from Designed to Birth was absolutely amazing. I found their services last minute online when I had my child unexpectedly. She replied right away and pick up the placenta the next day. She was also completely understanding when I accidentally slept through our drop off time with my newborn baby.
Thank you so much for your help. You made this a wonderful experience for us. It is a memory we will treasure forever. Your help was very intuitive and unobtrusive. I would definitely recommend you to my friends and family.
I reached out to Marlene a few months before my planned July birth. She was wonderful from the beginning, providing me with information and also supporting my personal choices with the birth. In the end, my birthing plan did not pan out the way we anticipated, and I had to have an induction.
