Words of Gratitude
“Aja’s conscious breath work session was very well organized and explained prior to the session. She thoughtfully guided us through the process and provided a comfortable safe space to experience the process. She was warm and kind with positive energy as she kindly helped us through the experience as I didn’t know what to expect but felt safe. She has the perfect voice to ground you as you breathe. I look forward to doing it again in the future..”
A Grounding Breath Session"I am incredibly grateful to my birth doula, Aja, for guiding me through a 10-hour labor that ended in a smooth, normal delivery of my baby. She showed up for me within an hour and was equipped mentally and physically to make sure I am safe, I am heard and I reach my goal. From the very beginning of her arrival, she was a constant source of calm, strength, and reassurance. She supported me physically with continuous massages that eased the intensity of contractions, coached me through breathing techniques that kept me centered, and offered gentle words of motivation exactly when I needed them most. Her presence helped me stay focused, confident, and empowered throughout the entire process. I truly believe her care, experience, and unwavering support made all the difference in bringing my baby safely into the world. I cannot recommend her enough to any expecting parent looking for compassionate and skilled labor support."
A Thankful Mother“Aja was a wonderful help during pregnancy and postpartum. She helped put techniques into place that really made a huge difference in my labor. We did multiple breath sessions to help me learn how to cope with an unmedicated birth along with exercises to help speed along labor. She was a wonderful support in the delivery room facilitating my position changes and supporting my partner when he needed a break or knowing when to change things around. I honestly don't think I would have had the birth of my dreams without her!”
A Supported Family
“I had the privilege of meeting Aja at a pivotal time in my 4th pregnancy. I knew I would need a different type of intentional support and my family and I agreed working with a Doula was the right choice for us. A month before delivery I met with Aja, she was warm, friendly, direct, and knowledgeable and I felt comfortable right away! Aja assessed what my needs were which led us to engage in powerful breath work and exercises that would be foundational to the birthing experience I was hoping for this time around. I went from having a big breeched baby to a big baby in the ready position and I was determined to use all of the tools Aja gave me to prepare my mind and body for the laboring process that I desperately wanted. I desired to be unmedicated (if able) and have a positive birth experience, different from previous induced labors. Thanks to Aja I was well prepared. She checked on me, held me accountable to my exercises, helped me process through tough moments, and was all around the best cheerleader. This I know prepared me well in such a short amount of time. My Induction day was postponed twice and a few hours after the final call, my contractions came on strong and fast. Aja was on-call and ready, dropping everything to be by my side. Aja advocated for me in the hospital room. She held to my birth plan when the nurses in the room were not as attentive. She coached my breathing and integrated my family for additional support when appropriate and possible. She was a calming presence in tough moments after the baby was born. I believe so much of this beautiful final birthing experience was because of the partnership, support, trust, and gained friendship with Aja! In the postpartum phase, she has supported and cared for me in various ways as well. I wish I was so lucky for my previous birthing experiences. I highly recommend her services and praise her heart and passion for this special intimate work. You will be in the best hands!"
