“Chelsea was an incredible guiding light for us throughout our son’s birth and even following. Her genuine approach made us feel informed, confident, and cared for every step of the way. She is so thoughtful - in the ‘chaos’ of labor and delivery, she provided a sense of calm and thought of many details that made it a magical experience for both of us (e.g. making sure the hospital room was a tranquil place with the right lighting, music, helping with the logistics of hospital arrival, suggesting different movement and positions to aid with pain management and labor progression, ensuring our wishes were communicated well to hospital staff as needed). Thanks to Chelsea, I will forever reflect on our birth story with the utmost love and gratitude.”

- Lauren M. (Birth Doula Client)

“Perhaps the most impactful area of Chelsea’s support was in the guidance she provided to me as a husband… being on call during labor to answer questions and give encouragement… gently suggesting when to step in and help… reminding me of basic things that I wouldn’t have thought of at the time… Chelsea was an amazing coach for both of us! Her follow up visit was a breath of fresh air during a tired (yet happy) time. She is truly a wealth of knowledge in both birth-related things as well as general child life and postpartum. In hindsight, neither of us can imagine our experience without Chelsea’s support.”

- Matthew M. (Husband of Birth Doula Client)

“My husband and I had an instant connection with Chelsea. She is incredibly knowledgeable and we really liked that she had worked as a labor and delivery nurse in the past. Chelsea is warm, attentive and reliable and her passion for pregnancy and birth is palpable. She was an integral part of our birth team and I truly cannot imagine giving birth without her support.”

-Genevieve L. (Birth Doula Client)

“Chelsea was so nurturing and intuitive in her care during my postpartum journey with my third baby. Her presence is very calming and comforting. She made me so many delicious postpartum friendly soups, congees, teas, and treats and they were all so nourishing. I truly felt like I was getting special treatment each week and it made such an impactful difference in me having a great postpartum experience. I highly recommend Chelsea to anyone who wants to be held in the best way during their postpartum care.”

-Talea B. (Postpartum Doula Client)

“I’m so grateful for the support I received from Chelsea. She brought such calm and kindness into my postpartum time, nourishing me with delicious, healthy meals and creating space to process and talk about my birth experience. Her presence was grounding for our whole family (my three year old loved having her here!) and I always felt cared for and truly listened to. I highly recommend her to any mama looking for both nourishment and heartfelt support.”

-Sadie S. (Postpartum Doula Client)

“Chelsea is so kind, warm, and empathetic. Even though I only met with her a few times before my delivery day, I immediately felt like I had known her forever. On the day of my birth, she kept me informed every step of the way and helped me understand what was coming next. She was truly the best support system I could have asked for.

She is such a good source of knowledge and helped me prepare both emotionally and physically for my delivery. She also advocated for me in ways that made such a difference. Knowing about my needle phobia and the challenges I have with IVs, she helped me ask for the IV team so the process could be as comfortable and painless as possible…

…she was a calming, steady presence when things didn’t go exactly as I had envisioned, and I felt so seen and cared for by her. Having a hospital birth for the first time was intimidating, but Chelsea brought so much comfort. She knew the hospital, many of the nurses, and the procedures and processes, which was incredibly reassuring for me as a first-time mom who had never been in a hospital before.

Chelsea continued to check in on me afterward, holding space for me to process my birth experience with such patience and care. I truly loved working with her and would do it again in a heartbeat!”
