What families say
I had the honor and privilege of having Allison as my doula with my second birth, and to this day I still can’t believe how magical my experience was compared to my first birth. When I first met Allison, I immediately felt so comfortable and supported by her.
Allison was so amazing as my doula! I hired her during my third pregnancy because of her wealth of knowledge and because I was able to connect with her the day I met her. Early on, we were able to get a written out birth plan established and she regularly checked on the progress on my pregnancy.
Allison is an amazing birth worker and I wish every family could experience the care, support and knowledge she provides! She uses her many years of experience to truly support the birthing process and families. I find her to be the perfect balance of emotional competence and practical evidence based care.
Allison gave me the best prenatal, during labor and postpartum experience I could have ever asked for!! She was INCREDIBLY supportive and informative during all prenatal appointments and really made me feel heard while keeping my expectations realistic!
