When we found out we were expecting baby #2, my partner and I decided that the first thing we wanted to do was to find a Doula to be our support through pregnancy and delivery.  Our first birth experience was really traumatic, and so we were hesitant to commit to having anyone along for the ride this time, but Jackie erased that hesitation after our first conversation.  

Throughout pregnancy, Jackie made sure that we had all the resources we needed to make informed choices.  If we had any reservations about anything, she was available to help us work through our hesitation.  She was a coach, a cheerleader, and an all around amazing support to have.  
When I went into labour, Jackie was here to help me move my body to get baby into position and keep productive contractions coming.  When labour fizzled out that first time, she was there to tell me it was ok to be sad and angry, but that I also needed to be patient and trust that my body would know what to do.   When baby decided to come for real, Jackie was right beside me, a constant support and comfort to me while my body did big and unfamiliar things.  She took AMAZING once in a lifetime photos that captured the beauty of our home delivery and that I will treasure forever.  
​
I know that I would have struggled to get through this pregnancy and delivery without Jackie's strong support and kind spirit.  She has a way of making you feel loved and respected that just makes everything you're worried about melt away.  My partner and I cannot recommend Jackie enough to anyone looking to add a Doula to their birth team.  I'll forever be grateful for the help she gave to our little family.

​Jackie was the perfect Doula match for my husband and I! We were expecting our third baby, and wanted to hire a Doula especially during these Covid times to help us advocate for ourselves and be that extra level of support. Jackie's presence was calm and encouraging and gave us the confidence to navigate the intense hours leading up to and after having our baby! She was an incredible support pre and post baby as well, and we look forward to continuing to foster our relationship! Jackie will always hold a special place in our hearts!

​​Jackie.... gosh. I don't think I can sum up just how incredible she is!!
Jackie is compassionate, caring, polite, courteous, knowledgeable, and all around wonderful!!! She was 100% the calm in my storm and I cannot recommend her enough! 
When (IF) we have another baby, I would not think twice about having Jackie there again. She is amazing and made labor not so bad. When I was ready to give up, Jackie was there cheering me on assuring me I could do it. Wow what a feeling to have someone like her in your corner. 

When I asked for anything, Jackie would jump to assist me, even if it was just a sip of water. I know this is her job, but she was so HAPPY to help, it really made a difference. When I didn't understand something, Jackie gladly explained it to me and made sure I fully understood what was happening. My daughter needed to be looked at right after birth by the Pediatricians and while that was happening, Jackie stayed with me and assured me everything was ok, which definitely calmed me! 
​
I am so thankful you were there for us! We love you Jackie and thank you for everything you do!!

​I am a single mom by choice and really wanted to have a doula and my mom as my support team when I gave birth. I read Jackie's reviews and after a quick conversation I knew she would be great. She sounded strong and gentle, exactly what I wanted and when the day came, she was exactly that. I am SO grateful for Jackie!! I honestly had the best birth experience and a huge part of that was how safe Jackie made me feel. It went exactly as I wanted, getting to the hospital fully dilated and having the baby right away. She helped mitigate my pain with her doula tricks. She also helped guide my mom to support me in the way I needed, without me having to ask. I loved my birth experience. If possible, I highly recommend hiring Jackie. Thank you, Jackie, you will always be in my heart
