Where Gentle Waves Birth Services works
Services families mention
“The Birth Doula Every Mama Deserves – My Experience with Kiera I interviewed quite a few doulas before I found Kiera, and from the moment we connected, I knew she was the one.”
“I was extra thankful that she continued to support us postpartum breast-feeding was a lot harder and difficult than I ever imagined and her support helped make things easier.”
“I truly cannot put into words how grateful I am for discovering Kiera and working with her throughout my pregnancy and birthing journey with my twin girls.”
“Kiera’s approach is holistic and centered, and she brings a depth of knowledge from both her professional experience and her own journey through motherhood.”
“She was a listening ear during moments of uncertainty, offered thoughtful breastfeeding guidance, and made herself available by phone whenever questions came up.”
What families say again and again
“Even after a long and exhausting day, Kiera packed up the delivery room, moved us to our postpartum room, and made sure we were completely settled.”
“I was extra thankful that she continued to support us postpartum breast-feeding was a lot harder and difficult than I ever imagined and her support helped make things easier.”
“She was a listening ear during moments of uncertainty, offered thoughtful breastfeeding guidance, and made herself available by phone whenever questions came up.”
“Throughout the entire hospital process, Kiera was just a text or call away, guiding me through every decision and helping me advocate for the low-intervention birth I wanted.”
What families say
I could write an entire essay on why Kiera is the best doula you could possibly work with but I’ll try to keep this brief! When I met Kiera I was pregnant with my first child and I can absolutely attribute my success birthing an 11lb baby naturally to her incredible support!
Kiera was an incredible and integral part of our positive birth experience. My husband and I are first time parents, and knew we wanted to work with a doula to support with the birth of our baby.
Kiera is such a light and an incredible human being. She was my doula for both of the births of my two boys. While both births couldn’t be more different, her support was unwavering. My first son came 5 weeks early and we unexpectedly had to pivot from a birthing center to a hospital induction.
Kiera was my doula for my first birth in 2018 (hospital), for my second and third in 2020 and 2024 (homebirths). She filled me with knowledge that helped me through my pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Being a repeat client was so special.
