Makenzie & her baby girl
“We got to meet Brenda through the online Lamaze trio class in preparation for our firstborn! I found Brenda’s website amidst countless other Doula/Lamaze websites and truly believe her practice and services have the best to offer. Brenda was personable, kind, informative, trustworthy, and talked to you like you’ve known her for years. She put the knowledge in our hands and really wanted us to succeed! Her evidence based practice MAKES SENSE and has made us even more excited for the birth process! ”
“I love working with Brenda! She is so knowledgable and kind, helping me build up the info I need to have a healthy birth and also answering questions with kindness, understanding, and humor. I recommend her Lamaze classes to anyone expecting a baby!”
“As a labor and delivery nurse, doula, and pregnant new momma, my husband and I went to Brenda’s class because I knew that she would help fill my husband in on what to expect during labor and delivery and also help educate me on tips and tricks that I didn’t know. Plus, it feels good to be an active participant in preparing for birth from a new perspective- as the mom rather than the RN or doula. Brenda has been a doula for 27 years and has more certifications than I honestly knew existed; she is the original, the OG, the birth God Mother, that can help educate you to feel confident in your choices and prepare for the birthday. Her method covers all types of learning styles and keeps participants engaged. She is cheerful, excited, and a wealth of knowledge with experience in home birth, birth centers, and hospital birth.”
“We used Brenda as our doula for our first baby. She taught our hospital classes and we just instantly liked her. My husband who was very skeptical about using a doula was sold when he met her. Besides her 30 + years of experience. She has a calming presence that and will give you confidence that you can do this. She walked with us through the entire process leading up to the birth each week. I ended up having a challenging labor that would have been a lot more scary for us if we didn’t have her by my side guiding us. As my husband says she was the best money we spent this entire process. Her postpartum visit literally saved our sanity and sleep as we were following some bad advice from a lactation consultant. After following Brenda’s advice our baby started sleeping 5 hours straight at night, and gaining weight properly. I’m forever indebted to her for being such an incredible resource and guide through this journey to becoming a mother. If you are fortunate to get the oppurtunity to have Brenda as your doula consider youself the luckiest woman! I hands down recommend her, her online tutorials, and post partum care. ”
“Lamaze classes were amazing. Brenda is very knowledgeable and had a great personality that made the classes very enjoyable for a full three and a half hours! We learned many significant aspects of birthing, and most important the awareness that it is a natural process. This makes us feel more comfortable, less anxious about delivery. We also like the doula community; we hired one after taking this class. They are very caring. Thanks so much.”
“Brenda was extremely helpful with my lactation journey. We booked her for an in-home session as well as shorter virtual sessions. She was supportive of all my choices and we just love her energy! She’s a wealth of information, so you can’t go wrong with hiring her.”
“This class is so educational and empowering as a first time parent. Brenda is awesome at making everyone feel comfortable and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!!”
“Brenda was just the right amount of informative and entertaining! I left the class feeling empowered to make choices that will be right for me and my birth experience. First time mamas, do yourself a favor and enroll in ALL of the Healthy Birth classes!”
“Thorough childbirth education geared towards those hoping for natural childbirth. Comfortable learning environment with very enthusiastic & knowledgeable instructor! Recommend to any first-time parent.”
“I could not be more pleased with the Lamaze Healthy Birth Classes my husband and I took ... Brenda, is outstanding and enthusiastic. She is knowledgeable and presents information in a judgement-free/fact-based manner, enabling attendees to make choices about their birth experiences that best suit their needs. [She] has taken us from feeling nervous about our upcoming birth experience to feeling prepared and well supported. I can’t recommend their services enough!”
