"If you are on the fence about hiring a doula, thank your future self by going for it. Not just any doula, but Lizzy. She was a Godsend for my husband and I during our fertility and birth journey for our first child. I had a vague idea of what doulas do before meeting Lizzy during a related project and now couldn't imagine not having one after going through birth. She was a calming presence throughout, knowledgeable in her depth of experience and reassuring that I could do it. We met with her twice before our due date and she made sure to remind us that she was accessible and ready for whatever questions that I had. I had a birth plan - but in the later weeks found out our baby was breech. Lizzy encouraged me that baby could still turn and this gave me motivation to keep trying. Unfortunately, baby didn't turn and we even tried an ECV, which then went straight into a c-section. In the right moment, Lizzy made sure to remind me that I try to ask if she could be in the OR when I initially thought she might have to wait outside. Even with these complications, she was granted access to the OR with us, and during the moments where attention was mainly on the baby, Lizzy was a calming presence, focused on me, relaying information to me with what was happening when otherwise I wouldn't have known. She was with me until the recovery room, when my husband and baby were in another area, and checked in on us even after the hospital. Thank you Lizzy for your gift and for your presence with us during a vulnerable and special life changing time!"

"Lizzy is an an amazing Doula and a great support system! I had gestational diabetes and was able to deliver vaginally and unmedicated as per our birth plan. When I was diagnosed with GD, Lizzy helped me calm down and not overthink anything too much. My water broke before contractions started, Lizzy made sure we were calm, and could follow our birth plan as discussed. She is incredible. At the hospital, she helped me push. She stayed with me for a long time after the bit tbh as well. She took some great pictures!!! She is super kind and will go to lengths to support you. Highly recommend Lizzy!!! She is truly the BEST!!!"

"10000/10!! 🌟 From the moment we met and spoke to Lizzy to the day of our baby’s arrival, she gave the best guidance and motivation through the entire process. We are truly grateful we had found her! She is a gem and I highly recommend her to everybody. The best decision was not only getting a doula but having Lizzy by our side made the experience stress free. She is a great friend to have through your birth experience. If you needed a sign to book her, this is it.. You’ll be happy you did!"
