“If you are a local and looking for a doula to be part of your support team during pregnancy/delivery, I can’t recommend Ashley enough, She was amazing! After searching for local doulas, Ashley stood out to me and from our initial in person meet I felt right and comfortable about everything. I could tell she loves what she does and knows so much about birth and all things pregnancy and delivery. She was always ready to advocate for me. Anything I had a question on she always gave me a professional and honest opinion, so I always felt good about it. I am so grateful to have had her as my support system in such an important and special journey in my life”

"Ashley planned a beautiful Mother's Blessing event for me in the summer of 2022. I loved how she thoughtfully prepared options for activities at the event that I could customize to my wishes. The evening of the event Ashley set everything up in such a beautiful careful way. I loved the decor that really set the tone and the gorgeous table with place settings for each guest. I enjoyed the outpouring of love all orchestrated by Ashley. I believe the women who love us want to show it, but sometimes do not know how until they are invited to do so in a certain way. I thought it was so tender to be loved in a way other than simple gift giving. Ashley's activities provided opportunities for supporting words and thoughtful keepsakes to feel poignantly of the support through the remainder of my pregnancy and even after birth. I would recommend a Mother's Blessing to any mama who wants to feel pampered, cherished, and lifted by loved ones."

“Ashley was a phenomenal doula to have by my side, not just throughout my birthing time, but through my entire pregnancy! So many worries and concerns melted off my shoulders once I knew I had her in my corner. During my birthing time, Ashley knew exactly when to be hands on and by my side, as well as when to take a step back and let me manage things on my own. Her gentle counter pressure was a constant help, and she even learned my hypnobabies cues to help me deepen my relaxation during pressure waves. She helped me come up with new positions to help progress labor, and stayed behind after my birth to make sure I had everything I needed. I cannot recommend Ashley enough! She is as amazing of a doula as she is a friend. Anyone who hires her will not regret it!”
