Praises for Dauphin County Doulas

“She brought ease, comfort and empowerment to both me and my husband. My husband felt that he could provide me with what I needed, and step away if he needed a moment knowing I would be in good hands with Amy.” ~ Stacey St.Hilaire, Birth Doula Client

“Amy helped guide and coach my husband and I through a truly memorable, medication-free (nitrous oxide only), labor and delivery. Amy helped us with our birth plan, provided tips and stretches when contractions began, and was there for us during the entire journey. I was able to move around as I desired, she reminded me when to breathe and how, taught me to relax, helped my husband provide support, and so much more! After delivery, our little boy was much more alert and I was able to get up immediately after skin-to-skin time. I am so very thankful for our wonderful experience with Amy.” ~ Jen McCorkle, Birth Doula Client

“Amy was an amazing doula to work with! She was patient, kind, and informative.” ~ Nessa Rodriguez, Birth Doula Client

 

“Dauphin Doulas is wonderful! I knew I wanted a doula for my last pregnancy and thankfully they accepted our Tricare insurance! I worked with Amy, and ultimately had Cassie at my birth. (the possibly of having Cassie at my birth was known from the beginning). Can’t rave enough about these women. Kind, caring, makes you feel instantly comfortable, during what can be a vulnerable experience. I had a traumatic birth experience in the past and with them, I felt safe. These two women are incredible and I will forever remember their role in my last pregnancy.” ~ Elaina Good, Birth Doula Client

“Amy is an incredible and kind doula. Her energy will get you through the toughest moments in labor! My partner and I enjoyed her sense of humor which she uses very appropriately at just the right times. She is knowledgeable at navigating all aspects of birth planning. I will call her as soon as we are expecting again without hesitation!” ~ Kaci Wood, Birth Doula Client

“As for myself and my husband, she was able to give us reassurance, as well. Knowing that she was working with S and D throughout the late part of the pregnancy was a relief. She was able to give them the attention they needed to answer questions and coach them through the last weeks of preparation...which gave me a huge sense of relief as a worried mom/grandma. Overall, Amy's presence made a huge difference for all of us on that very special day.” ~ Sandi, Birth Doula Client’s Mother

“Her encouraging words and presence were invaluable during labor and birth.  She calmly and knowledgeably gave others in my support team instructions on how to help me get through the contractions.  There was one moment during the pushing when I didn't think I could do it, but Amy knew exactly what to say to help me refocus.  After the birth, Amy has been a supportive presence.  She provided helpful breastfeeding support and continues to be there if I have any questions.  Even though this was our third baby and we knew what to expect, I still highly recommend the support of a good doula.  Amy was the most effective, knowledgeable and kindest doula we've had!” ~ Lara Schlitter, Birth Doula Client 

“Amy’s childbirth and baby basics classes helped my husband and I feel prepared, and we couldn’t have felt better about Cassie’s home visit and support throughout labor & delivery. I truly believe having them as doulas made for a wonderful experience during a time that can be really vulnerable. Best money spent in supporting our family!” ~ Caitlin Davidson, Birth Doula Client

"Julia is the postpartum doula I was matched with. Words do not accurately describe the amazing experience I have had with her. I am so grateful for this experience and highly recommend this to anyone having a baby. It is an investment in yourself and worth every penny.” ~ Melissa Runkle, Postpartum Doula Client
