Ready to meet the doula of your dreams?

“We took one of Arlene's childbirth education classes and were blown away at the level of expertise she had as well as her ability to communicate it in easily digestible ways. She was just as charming and helpful virtually as she was in person and was incredibly respectful and encouraging throughout the entire class. When it was finally time for us to give birth, we both felt a lot more comfortable and equipped during the process because we'd been prepared so well for the process!”

“My husband and I LOVED working with Arlene, she was such an essential part of our birth team. We interviewed a few different doulas and after talking with Arlene I said to my husband “wow I feel like with her on my team I could do anything.” Throughout pregnancy she was available to answer all questions and provide specific strategies to address concerns I had as they came up. Her pre-natal visits were so helpful to be able to connect with her. At the birth center she brought tea light candles and a blue tooth speaker to help create a peaceful environment and coached me throughout the whole labor and birth helping me to stay calm and centered. She worked so well with our midwives and I fully believe that having Arlene there allowed me to have my literal dream labor and birth. I highly highly recommend her!”

“From the first call we had with Arlene, even before the call ended I knew I wanted her to be there! I could tell she was very experienced, warm, respectful, and fun to be around! I knew this was the energy I needed! It felt like I had known her before! She took us through a crash birth class which am glad we got because everything she shared with us, were able to apply it during labor and it was very helpful! During labor, I felt like I had a sister and friend! For someone who I had just recently got to know, Arlene’s passion for her work shines through and is truly palpable! Thank you Arlene for making my birth experience special, beautiful and memorable!”

“Arlene was such a wonderful blessing to our birth experience for our first baby! I gave birth at a birthing center with a team of midwives and Arlene as my doula, and we also signed up for her prenatal birthing classes. When I went into labor, Arlene came right over and helped me labor at home until it was time to go to the birthing center and stayed until well after the baby was born to be an extra set of hands and help with latching. Having a doula during labor helped above and beyond what the midwives provided because she didn’t leave my side and she was able to read my body language and help me into new positions when I started getting tired. It was also great to have her over for our 2-week postpartum visit to think back on the labor and discuss recovery and all the new things that come with parenthood. Would absolutely recommend Arlene for birthing classes and doula services, she was wonderful!!

“Arlene is amazing! She is super knowledgeable, warm, easy to talk to, kind, and gives an amazing hip squeeze and massage. She helped my husband and I through a super long labor, always kept a positive attitude, helped us with tough decisions, created a peaceful environment, and was a fabulous support person. She knew exactly when to step in and what to do to help me through. She's fun to be around and is a fantastic doula. We were lucky to have her by our side for the birth of our first baby.”

“I recently had the privilege of working with Arlene, and I cannot express how grateful I am for the incredible support and guidance she provided throughout my pregnancy and childbirth journey. First and foremost, her knowledge and expertise were invaluable. During labor, she was a rock of support. Her soothing words, massages, and relaxation techniques helped me manage pain and stay focused on the task at hand. Her empathy and compassion were a source of strength for both me and my partner, creating a sense of unity and reassurance during a challenging time. I can confidently say that Arlene played a pivotal role in ensuring a positive birth experience for me. Her presence not only reduced anxiety and pain but also fostered a deep sense of connection and trust. If you are considering working with a doula, I wholeheartedly recommend her, and I urge you to choose someone as exceptional as the doula I had the privilege of working with. I cannot thank Arlene enough for the positive impact she had on my childbirth experience.”

“Arlene was absolutely the best part of my birthing process - we had multiple scary and unforeseen moments and she provided so much emotional and practical support as we navigated them, truly our rock! I would highly recommend her to any birthing person thinking about Doula support in their birth.”
