What families say

Very grateful to have found Alissa and Katie to help me stay strong and optimistic during my baby’s birth. We found open heart doula late in my pregnancy around 8 months but they have been very quick to respond and meet.

★★★★★ — Swati, 2023-07

I cannot recommend Open Heart enough. Alissa and Rachel were an incredible source of support during one of the most vulnerable times in my life. Their expertise, compassion, and kindness made all the difference.

★★★★★ — Mary, 2025-06

I had a wonderful experience with Alissa Claxton as our doula. She was so nurturing, encouraging, and supportive throughout my pregnancy and labor. I was able to successfully achieve a VBAC and I don't know if I could've done it without Alissa believing in me, reassuring me, and empowering me the whole way through.

★★★★★ — Camden, 2022-03

We have used Alissa with Open Heart Doula for both our births and can say we wouldn't have had the births we had without her. She is FANTASTIC support, for both my husband and myself. She is absolutely gifted at being a Doula. Highly recommend her!
