“Having Sarah and Sarah help us through the process of having out first baby was a choice I would 100% make again. Their knowledge was helpful, practical and comforting for both my wife and I. Couldn’t imagine doing it again without them.”

“Everything happens so fast. My 2nd child was born via a c-section and it seemed like a whirlwind. Granted, it wasn't easier (and hasn't been so far) than our first. But, especially when you're not as much in the driver's seat, it was hard to keep a handle on things. It was really helpful for me (as the Dad) to have a doula there- partly because they have an objective perspective, partly because they have an idea of what's going on (no guys, Google doesn't cut it...), but mostly, I appreciated her support of my voice and our (my and my wife's) wishes during the birth of our son."

"My experience with the doulas was exemplary. I was felt clueless and useless when it came to childbirth, and I wasn’t sure how to show up as a husband for that. The doulas not only put my mind at ease by being a presence there for my wife, but also by keeping me calm and informed about every step of the way. My Doula Sarah also helped me keep it light and humorous (because I'm a huge softy). She even went to get us Arby's after our daughter was born! It was a world-class experience that I strongly encourage all parents to encounter, and I will most definitely be using a doula for all of our future children! Love the Sarah's!!"

"Having a doula to help me support my wife at the birth of our daughter was invaluable. It gave me somebody to rely on, both emotionally and in any other way needed, whether that was getting drinks or giving me a half an hour nap while she labor sat with my wife. She truly was OUR doula. "

Our doula was a huge help to us through the birth experience. I'd read about how to be supportive, but that was an intense couple of days and it was great to have support from someone who has been there personally, and professionally. Also it was great to know you've got someone with experience in your corner when it comes to navigating the healthcare system."

“It took the pressure off of me being the only person present as her labor partner-who knew, understood and could sympathize what (my wife’s)needs were during labor. I would say meeting prior to delivery helped us (mother and father) lay out a game/delivery plan. Made us slow down and talk about it. With this being our third child, it was interesting to see the nurses respond to my wife differently during this labor/delivery with a doula versus our two previous deliveries without a doula...in that she was able to labor the way she wanted to labor. They almost took her more seriously in how she wanted to labor because we had support (our doula) and not just me being the dad."

"Our doula gave so much support and comfort. I really wouldn’t have known what to do
without her."
