Prenatal visits so we can get to know each other better! I want you to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible! We’ll laugh and be awkward (because that’s just me) and talk all about your birth preferences and comfort measures. If you have dogs, I will totally snuggle them.
I will always try my best to be reachable for any questions, comments, or concerns by phone, text, or email though in between our visits.

On call 24/7 from 38 to 42 weeks!
Yes, even at 2 am! You let me know when it’s “go-time!” I will show up looking like I just rolled out of bed (because I probably did) with a coffee in my hand because let’s face it, it’s my life blood.

~ After birth, I can help with bodyfeeding if needed and make sure everyone is as comfortable as possible!
I mean a human being did just exit your body. This is your time to revel in the journey you just went through and soak in all that oxytocin and that postpartum meal we all dream about (I mean HELLO calories)!

~ A postnatal visit to check in on you and your beautiful family!
We will go over your thoughts and feelings regarding the birth and new parenthood. If you have any questions I can answer them then. This is for you and your family!

You truly made it possible for me to achieve the positive birth I hoped for! I’m so glad I can remember that day with pride and joy….You are worth your weight in gold!!” - Katie B. (2019 Doula Client)

You were such a help on the day I became a dad. And for that I cannot thank you enough.” - Luke T. (2019 Doula Client)

Jelina is absolutely amazing! She was a great resource to my husband and I through out my pregnancy. We would have been lost without her during my delivery.” - Rosslyn L. (2019 Doula Client)

“When labor finally came she stayed at the hospital with me for 35 hours and she validated my feelings of frustration when things weren't going to plan. She calmed me down so we could make a new one. I could go on forever complimenting and appreciating all she did for me. Thank you so much Jelina. I truly appreciate you. You made me feel secure and calm and I will never forget everything you've done for me.” - Bethany W. (2018 Doula Client)

Jelina is AMAZING!!!…I didn’t really know what to expect when it came to labor and delivery or what I even wanted but she helped prepare me for everything and was such a rock during delivery. She went above and beyond my expectations and I can’t imagine what it would’ve been like without her there.” - Cristeal C. (2019 Doula Client)

….right when she showed up she immediately made us feel at ease. She supported me through every contraction, supported my husband, and made us feel like we were in complete control….We were both very thankful to have her with us. She is amazing.” - Lindsay W. (2019 Doula Client)
