Testimonials

  • Sarah Jamison

    "We were SO lucky to have Kara as our doula for the birth of our first child! The amount of information out there about birth is overwhelming. Kara’s childbirth education course gave us the most important information and tools we needed heading into birth. The material and tools she provided us with increased our confidence that we were doing the best we could to prepare for the birth of our son. She has years of experience, is extremely knowledgeable and always took the time to thoroughly answer any questions we had as well as followed up to see if we had any additional questions. Kara is also always growing her own tool box and so in working with her we knew we were getting the most up to date information on all things related to childbirth. We highly recommend working with her!"

    "When my husband and I found out we were expecting our firstborn, we were inundated with all of the options and thoughts on childbirth, preparation, education, and more. Since we were planning to have Kara serve as our doula at our son’s birth, and in lieu of a hospital-facilitated course, we were thrilled that Kara also offered childbirth education. I’m the kind of person who likes to prepare as well as possible, and knowing what could happen in every scenario, as well as what our options were in advance was so important - Kara helped put my mind at ease by guiding us through the process. She is one of the most compassionate, gentle, encouraging, strong women I have ever met, and having her on our “team” was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. So thankful for the opportunity to learn from her and simply to know her. 5/5 (and then some) recommend Kara to anyone seeking childbirth education!"

  • Brittany Cominsky

    "I have so many good things to say about Kara and her services that I don’t even know where to start. I learned so many things that I didn’t know before and was able to eliminate so many fears that I have always had. The most important things that I learned from the childbirth education courses were all of the physical changes that were about to happen during labor. It helped so much to know exactly what stages of labor that my body would go through and what I could expect before I actually had to go through it. She taught me different labor positions and breathing techniques that I would not have known to do without her. She gave me so much confidence in myself and the natural birth process as I mentally prepared for labor and birth!"
