Your Journey. Your Birth. Your Doula.

 I had the privilege of experiencing a home birth exactly as I had dreamed: beautiful, quick, and full of presence. And Joanna was an essential part of making everything flow with such grace and calm. She gave us thoughtful guidance on how to involve and support our older daughter in case she was awake and present during the birth. She offered us continuous support, with a calm, respectful, and nurturing presence. She knew when to give us space, but was also there for every detail: breathing with me, reminding me of my strength, and creating an atmosphere of safety and surrender.

Words aren’t enough to express my gratitude. I can only hope that more women have the chance to be supported by someone as present, respectful, and wholehearted as Joanna.

 Joanna was an incredible support for me and my husband throughout the entire journey - before birth, during labor, and postpartum. Even though this was my third birth, I learned so much from her. She shared a lot of knowledge, helped me prepare emotionally by healing past traumas, and guided me towards a beautiful, empowering experience.

She was always there - listening, checking in, and offering guidance. Joanna’s pain relief techniques, special massages and emotional support made a huge difference during labor.

This birth and postpartum was truly healing and transformative. I’m so grateful for Joanna - she made all the difference ❤️

 I was hoping for an epidural this time around because the last birth was brutal but it ended up going so fast I had a water birth instead. The whole thing was just 3.5 hours and I truly believe it went so fast from the technique Joanna used to move baby down. She knew exactly when to massage me or give me space. Pain was actually managed during this birth and I owe a tremendous amount of that to her. She worked in tandem with the midwife who found it to be a big relief that Joanna could help me through the pain while the midwife could prepare medical things.

Her quick thinking, Intuition, photography skills and massage techniques made my birth a best-case scenario. Joanna was indispensable. HIGHLY recommended. She is worth her weight in gold!

 Joanna's support meant a ton to me during my pregnancy, labor, and after the birth. From the moment I reached out to her, she was there, answering all my questions and guiding me through everything. Joanna was with me through every contraction during my 24-hour labor. She helped me cope with each contraction with a calming presence, guiding me through techniques to progress the labor, such as using the peanut ball and encouraging kneeling and standing positions to help turn the baby. Joanna knew exactly what to do and when, and that made everything feel much easier to handle. My partner also felt so much more involved and confident with Joanna there. Her care, support, and calm presence made my birth experience so much better than I could have hoped for.

 With Joanna, I could understand and accept care for myself. Throughout our journey she was close and kind, present but never intrusive, loving and respectful, a true partner to me and my family. As she was so lovingly taking care of me, my partner found a real ally for unconditional support. My home birth was perfect and Joanna played a crucial role in making it beautiful. She held my hands, talked words of encouragement and strength, kept me warm and present for my baby, listened to my partner needs to be of help, made me feel like I could let go. Like my midwife said, I had the best team. She is strong and kind, courageous and humble, she is the knowledge, the safety, and the energy you want around you and your baby during pregnancy and when giving birth.

 I had an amazing experience having Joanna as my postpartum Doula! She had a key role to take care only of me, while everyone else was busy with the baby and the house. Joanna helped me with the belly binding (my main ask), but also cooking healthy food for me (enough for almost 2 weeks), I had a very relaxing time with a feet massage too. Joanna also helped me with healing teas and baths (as I had some issues from labor). She helped to keep the house organized, helped to take care of my baby so I could do a couple of tasks at home and the most important she made me company and this was everything that I needed! Just like a friend. 

I think giving this experience to a mom, is the best gift you can give her!! I recommend her to all my friends!
