Empowering Birth

My first birth was a somewhat traumatic experience but nothing compared to my second. I don't feel I could have mentally or physically gotten through it without the support of Mikala. 36 hours of labor in all and for the majority of it she sat and talked to me like an old friend ,made me laugh and respected every decision I wanted to make. she tirelessly offered Hands-On support during every contraction and it felt like she was laboring with me. She remained professional and so empathetic during the whole process. You can tell she has devoted her heart to servicing women during one of the most challenging times of change in life. From my first inquiry with her I could tell she is someone I wanted in my corner. I want to add that the special touches she provides ( homemade tea, body moisturizer, homemade meal etc.) are extra comforts and so appreciated !! I am most likely done having children but if my partner and I decide on another I will definitely hire Mikala again

Mikala is one of the most knowledgeable people I know when it comes to everything pregnancy (obviously she doesn't know everything, but she knows a lot and is always willing to learn more). Not only is she knowledgeable, but she is also respectful of women's choices to birth their babies how they feel comfortable, without judgment. She will stand by you and support you however you need, and make sure your needs and wants are being met with your baby. I'm so lucky to have met her and have her as my doula/birthkeeper.

I have had the pleasure of working with Mikaela at a few births now . Her knowledge and passion are just so amazing . She is a fantastic doula , I am thankful that her and I can partner on births because we do great as a team as well . Mikalea understands the birth process and there’s no pressure to be or do , she’s there and you know you’re in good hands !
