What families say

Kattrina was our doula for my first baby and I can't say enough how amazing she was!! She made a point to come to all of my prenatal appointments and I always looked forward to seeing her.

★★★★★ — Hattie, 2023-07

We are beyond thankful to have used In The Beginning doula services. Kattrina & Tabitha are so knowledgeable about pregnancy, labor and delivery. They do a great job of meeting you where you’re at, educating and answering questions; They explained things to us that help us make an educated decision if/ when needed.

★★★★★ — Michael, 2023-12

In the beginning of Birth Services goes beyond 5 stars! I would and will recommend them to anyone I know. Tabitha is by far one of my favorite human beings I have encountered. She has a sweet welcoming nature while educating and helping you advocate for your needs through the birth process.

★★★★★ — Alicia, 2025-01

Katrina and Tabitha are both outstanding and make an excellent team. They have the knowledge, experience, compassion and are truly passionate about what they do! We never felt “alone” as first time parents. They encouraged and reassured me consistently-they helped me believe in myself!
