“When I was early postpartum with my second child, Megan had just opened up the space and I enjoyed going to the weekly meetups for new parents, called Glimmer Gathering.”

What families say
I have written a previous review regarding Megan and her amazing doula services, where she provided me with an abundance of invaluable physical and mental support during my labor and delivery. Megan helped me feel very much heard and seen during such a vulnerable time.
I am so thankful we happened to move to Acton and found Megan during pregnancy to be our doula! She was such a great support in pregnancy and during a birth that very much did not go to plan. But where I really really appreciated Megan’s support was in her business that serves new families in so many ways.
Megan is so incredible in all she does, we worked with her to achieve our first VBAC in 2023 and hired her to provide support for our second VBAC in December 2025. She’s the perfect mix of professional and friendly; she provides an amazing amount of knowledge, support, advocacy, and warmth without being overbearing.
Megan is a lovely person. She is very straight forward and explains things really well. We really wanted to hire her as our doula but unfortunately she was not available during our due date period. We did attend her birth class and it was really informative. She explained every stage really well.
