“I was looking for someone who I could trust with my newborn so that I could rest and have one-on-one time with my 2-year-old son. Isabel has given me so much more than that - she supports me with my baby’s feeds, she listens to me without judgement, she builds me up when I’ve felt vulnerable, she validated my concerns when my body didn’t feel right exercising early days postpartum.”

“Isabel was friendly, professional and really respectful of my preferences while supporting me before, during, and after birth”

“Isabel was excellent with our baby and helped my wife while she was recovering and I had to go to work right after our baby girl was born. She even goes beyond what her duties call for without being asked. She takes initiative and that is absolutely helpful. Her calm and soothing energy made it super easy for our 2 babies to feel safe and comfortable with her, and that is exactly what you want in a Doula.”

“She offered very informative and helpful information on lactation concerns and supported me through my breastfeeding journey. She is extremely knowledgeable on lactation and newborn care and I found comfort in her education, knowledge, and continued support.

“She pays attention to all the important little details too, to make sure you felt comfortable in your own way of doing things, and was very open minded to adjust to your preferences. I felt very cared for and relieved every time she came to help.”

“I knew to look to Isabel to feel comforted while the whole event felt tough. The team kept asking about meds and all but Isabel discussed with me about my progress without needing additional interventions and I felt confident again and again. Overall, I felt the labor and birth experience was as best as it had been because of Isabel.”

“Isabel has a wonderfully calm and gentle energy which was just what both baby and I needed, and her presence in our home and with our family felt natural and comforting. We are so lucky to have her in our family’s life and I can’t recommend her enough.”

“She helped us create a detailed and evidence-based birth plan, and when the time came she was present, engaged and helpful throughout a long hospital labor. She made sure we were informed and felt empowered to advocate for ourselves, kept sight of our birth plan, captured special photos and even remembered details of my labor and delivery after the fact that I had forgotten.”

“She was also a lifeline during a very difficult postpartum for me, offering her newborn and infant care expertise and practical help around the house, making sure I ate and rested, connecting me to other care providers and resources through her professional network, and just generally supporting and encouraging us as overwhelmed first time parents.”
