Where Embracing Birth works
Services families mention
“As a first time parents, she helped us really think about the labor/delivery process and how to prepare.”
What families say again and again
“During labor and delivery, Liz was everything we needed her to be - a calm but reassuring presence in a situation we were unfamiliar with.”
What families say
Liz was, hands down, the best decision we made in prepping for our baby. There is something to be said about going into what is inevitably going to be chaotic/messy/unexpected/actually life changing - with a sense of calm, because you have someone on your side who has spent literal HOURS with you going over Every.
Liz was beyond incredible as our doula. As a first time parents, she helped us really think about the labor/delivery process and how to prepare. She was always helpful with any questions we had, and was always prepared for our prenatal sessions with questions and topics to guide discussion.
Liz was an amazing support before, during, and after my birth. She is very kind, thoughtful, and has taught me a lot about caring for my little one. During labor, she provided constant comfort and help. I'm very thankful we found her!
Working with Liz as my labor doula was such a game-changer. She patiently and kindly answered all my questions and helped empower me to make birth goals that aligned with my values. Having her with me in the delivery room was so comforting knowing that she had my best interest and comfort at heart.
