"From the very first conversation, it was clear that Jenna offers something truly special and is very knowledgelable! The holistic approach she takes is so refreshing and really aligned well with what I was looking for. It's not just about the physical aspects of birth, but also about emotional and spiritual well-being. I felt truly supported every step of the way. Her knowledge of natural birth and ability to create a calm and positive environment made such a difference in my experience. I felt empowered and heard during the entire process, and I know that her presence was what I needed, and helped me have the birth I had hoped for."

"Jenna has such a beautiful, warm and loving presence. She’s very confident and nurturing in the way she shows up in labor, I felt so safe with her and I felt like she knew exactly what to say and do during my labor to make me feel at ease. Even just with a look you can feel her heart and her love. I also loved having her postpartum support! It was so nourishing to have delicious, healthy, warming meals to help me heal. Her massages, foot baths, help around the house and more was so helpful, I felt so taken care of!"

"Having Jenna by our side for the birth of our first baby was an incredible gift. Her warm, calming presence brought so much reassurance throughout the entire process. During contractions, her intuitive support and soothing massages made a world of difference—I truly can’t imagine going through labor without her. We’re so grateful she was part of this deeply meaningful moment in our lives. Thank you Jenna!"

-CF

"I can’t imagine having a baby without Jenna by my side! She was with me for the homebirths of both of my sons. Her energy during labor is calming but also empowering. She prepares you for birth with her wide knowledge, providing books, herbs, and conversation that instills a sense of the sacred. After little one arrives, mama cares for baby, and Jenna cares for mama. My husband was also grateful for her involvement during my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum because she is helpful and competent; it took some of the pressure off him and allowed him to be fully present with me during an intense (and beautiful) time. Thank you Jenna!"

-AJ

"Jenna was present for both of my births. After a very tough and long first birth, I knew I wanted her support for every birth to follow. She is so compassionate, calm, uplifting, and supportive. Jenna helped calm nerves via prenatal visits and texts as needed. She provided me with specific teas to help my individual needs throughout pregnancy and postpartum. During my births she provided counter pressure, reminders when she’d see me tensing my body, position change support, water sips, support for my husband and toddler who were present, took photos during and after labor, and so much more. She also delivered teas and a homemade meal postpartum. She is so genuine in everything she does and I cannot picture a birth without her. I cannot recommend Jenna enough!"

-K

"Jenna was my doula for the birth of my first child, and I am incredibly grateful I got the chance to work with her. In the months leading up to the birth, she supplied me with knowledge and practices that made me feel grounded and confident. She was a soft and steady hand during labor, reminding me of that knowledge and giving my husband and me further support that led to a very positive experience. It was also so nice to have her check in a few days after the birth, when she brought me delicious homemade teas to help the healing process. I couldn't recommend her more!"

-CR

"Inviting Jenna on this journey with us is something that I value deeply. The knowledge and resources she shared with us has helped me envision birth in the most beautiful, natural way. Jenna made creating a birth plan something sacred and of ease. Being able to lean on her for support has been immensely helpful."

-BH

"I'm so glad I found Jenna back when I first became pregnant. I could have never imagined then the impact she would have on our family. She worked her magic quietly and with so much skill that you can tell she has done this many times before. She was "on" the whole time. She worked with the nurses and doctors to make sure I was getting what I needed and wanted. There were points that I was fearful or scared and I would find her eyes and be reminded to breath. She was a calming presence and a huge comfort to me. She also did the most beautiful placenta prints that we will cherish forever. Not everything went as planned, but she went above and beyond to make my dreams come true. She respects all of your choices without judgement or influence. When we have another baby, she will be my first phone call."
-KH

"Jenna will be at all of my births. She’s not just an angel for first time moms, she’s the sister you need during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Hire her. Unless you’ll be due when I am for my next one, in which case I call dibs."
-CC

"I truly don't know what I would've done without Jenna. She was the anchor that held me steady throughout the wild preterm birth of my son. Everything I had planned went out the window, but Jenna remained a calm constant. She was there every step of the way from the 4am texts, driving me to the hospital, coordinating getting my husband there in time, and advocating for me while I was extremely overwhelmed. She held my hand during the most vulnerable moment of my life and made me feel safe, seen, and held. Jenna has since become a beautiful friend that I will absolutely be wanting at future births and life events. I can't recommend her enough. You deserve her to witness you in this miraculous phase of your life."

"I utilized Jenna's services for a closing of the bones ceremony this Spring. She was professional and knowledgeable, but even more important, she was nurturing, reassuring, and present. I felt safe to let go in her care and give myself over to the experience, and left the ceremony with closure and an ability to move forward that I had been lacking previously. I highly recommend Jenna to anyone who may be considering her."

"I contacted Jenna when I was already 6 months postpartum. My recovery was hard and slow and I needed some support but wasn't sure what would help. Jenna immediately had ideas for what could help and for a few weeks she came weekly and worked her magic. She took care of me in the most loving, nourishing way. The herbs, the body work, the food, the conversations, the knowledge, even cleaning up the kitchen... everything was so incredibly helpful and magical! And delicious! Week by week I started to feel so much better. My energy returned, my body felt better and much less achey, I finally started to feel fully alive again. She's so mindful of everything, even the tiny details, you really feel that you can relax and she will take care of everything. She does everything with so much care, love and respect. I only wish I knew her sooner!"

"There are people who come into your life at exactly the moment you need them, and then there are the rare souls who change the entire way you experience something as profound as birth.

Having Jenna as my doula for my second child was nothing short of transformational. She was the catalyst I did not even know I needed to finally feel safe, held, and deeply supported. From the moment labor began, her presence was steady, intuitive, and almost otherworldly, like a quiet, grounding force that allowed me to fully surrender to the experience.

She moved through my birth space like a fairy, tending to my every need without a single word needing to be spoken. She anticipated everything. She created an environment where I could drop fully into my body, trusting that I was cared for in every possible way.

After birth, her care only deepened. She nourished me not just with the most comforting elixirs, broths, teas, and food, but with something even more powerful, her energy. Her presence is warm, intentional, and rooted in genuine love. You can feel that she truly cares in a way that is rare and impossible to replicate. Each postpartum visit felt like a gentle restoration, she would arrive with intention and leave me more whole, more held, and more myself than before.

If you are considering having her by your side, do it. There is no greater gift you can give yourself during birth and postpartum than to be supported by someone who embodies safety, intuition, and true devotion to your well being.

She’s not just a doula, she’s a profoundly loving human and I will carry the imprint of her care with me forever."
