  • “My wife was in labor for 3 days—it was very intense. We could not have done it without Erin’s support! Erin answered all of our questions and worked with my wife through every contraction. Thank you, Erin!”

    — Josh, First Time Dad

  • Erin was by my wife's and my side for the birth of both of our children, and I can't think of a better investment. I had such a great experience that I referred Erin to my sister. The emotional support she provided and her guidance throughout the process was unmatched. We felt like Erin was part of our family. She was so respectful of the decisions my wife and I wanted to make and was ready to be there for us for whatever we needed. You will not regret hiring Erin. We'll never forget what she did for our family.

    —Jason

  • Erin was my doula for my second pregnancy and I am so grateful to have had her on my support team. I had some emotional baggage entering this pregnancy, a rare condition pop up at 36 weeks, and a labor induction I was not anticipating. Erin’s knowledge and calm demeanor was the balance I needed, every step of the way. She held my worry for me and made me feel empowered. I had a beautiful birth, even though it was different than I had planned. Erin continued to check in on me and baby for a couple months after, which has been so appreciated. Anyone would be lucky to have Erin as part of their journey!

  • Erin is simply the most caring and knowledgeable person you could have on your birth team!

  • We took the EBB class and it was amazing! As first time parents, we learned so much about the process of giving birth and how to advocate for ourselves. I was incredibly nervous going into having a baby, but I truly feel calm and prepared (well as prepared as I can be) to have my baby! She makes the class fun and interactive while also being incredibly validating, kind, and supportive! If you are looking for education on the birthing process, evidence on best practices for labor and delivery, and tips on advocating for yourself in the hospital, this is the class for you!

    -Garrett and Jenna

  • I cannot speak highly enough of Erin and I cannot imagine how my birth would have gone had she not been there. My labor was unexpectedly very difficult and lasted multiple days. Erin was our rock and a steadfast, comforting and encouraging presence (with an amazing sense of humor). She stayed by my side while also making sure my husband ate and caught naps when possible. Thanks to her, I found strength I never knew I had and my son’s birth ended up being the most special and powerful moment of my life. She has stayed a constant source of wisdom and encouragement through postpartum. She goes above and beyond, she is wonderful and we count ourselves extremely blessed that we know her!
