What happens in the Discovery Call?
In this initial 20 minute Zoom call, you will meet with one the owners of The Nest. The goal is to ensure you come away with a clear sense of who we are and what we offer. Once we understand what you are looking for in a birth doula, we will match you with one of The Nest’s professionals, who will then connect with you to introduce herself. You can share more about your pregnancy journey and wishes with the birth doula to determine if she is a good fit for you. We love to meet new couples and would thoroughly enjoy talking with you!
Marika was amazing! She and I clicked right away, and she was so incredibly helpful in preparing for birth, preparing the birth plan, etc. Unfortunately things didn't work out the way I had planned and I ended up needing a C-section three weeks early, but Marika was still there every step of the way. I was so thankful that she was able to be in the OR with me during my C-section because she was describing to me what was going on with my husband and my baby while I was lying there getting closed up. She also got tons of pictures, which I appreciate because everything kind of went by in a blur! I would recommend The Nest and specifically Marika to anyone I know who is expecting a precious miracle of their own ❤️
My doula did a great job and I highly recommend!
We had the best experience with the team at The Nest. From our first phone call through postpartum care, the team was kind, friendly and very informative. Our doula, Alex, brought so much encouragement, faith and support to a long delivery.
Highly recommend hiring your doula through The Nest! We had an amazing experience with them. Bri was our doula and she was so kind, supportive, encouraging and respectful of our wishes! I had really great birth outcomes and I believe that’s a testament to her support in helping me get into different positions! It’s a faith based company so we prayed together over my baby’s health and safety. They also have childbirth, breastfeeding and newborn care classes and offer postpartum doula support- which I think we’ll do with baby #2! I would recommend Bri and The Nest to anyone who’s pregnant!
My experience with Jeannie & Linda was the best! We instantly connected. They are both so sweet and passionate about what they do. I felt so supported going into labor - they were there to answer all of my questions throughout my pregnancy. Linda was there with us during our baby’s birth, and she was phenomenal! She supported my husband and I very well, and she was always doing something helpful whether we asked or not. She stayed to make sure my baby latched well and answered every question we had, and she’s been a wonderful support since then. I highly recommend working with them! They are very experienced and great at what they do.
My husband and I love The Nest! In particular, we have been so deeply blessed by their postpartum services. We hired Janice, their postpartum doula, to help us after our first baby was born. I legitimately have nothing negative to say about our experience, and she earned every star on this review! She helped us understand our little one and how she was developing, helped with so many practical things around the house, honored our family's wants and needs at all times, was such a pleasant and peaceful presence in our home, and respected our family in every way. She works hard, loves people, is extremely knowledgeable yet humble, and is such an incredible support to have during such a chaotic and confusing time. We had tons of family and friends supporting us during the transition as well, so I was hesitant at first when thinking about hiring a postpartum doula in general. But after our experience, I found that having Janice's support was a different kind of help with no strings attached and no expectations. We are so glad we hired her and will absolutely be hiring her for future babies! She helped us become the parents and family we want to be, and that is truly invaluable. We can't recommend her highly enough! We miss you already, Janice! 🤍
