“She has such a calming and reassuring presence and was fast acting when I needed help.”
My birth didn't go in the direction I planned at all. I was setup to deliver my baby at a local birth house with trusted midwives I've built a relationship with throughout my pregnancy. I always know to expect the unexpected, especially with birth, but that didn't change the fact that I NEEDED Rey. She was there to support me during my 70+ hours after my water broke until we welcomed our son into the world and into postpartum. Not to mention the resources and support she provided me by text (Whenever I had a question come up or was looking for some advice.) and in person meetings during my pregnancy. She held my hand when I was scared and in pain, was there to reassure me every step of the way, and even played my favorite song when the time came for baby to finally greet us. She also took amazing photos to document our labor and delivery journey. Even during the tough moments for me because I wanted to see it all. The raw beauty and pain I experienced. I'm so thankful I have those special and powerful moments. She would have respected my wishes either way, in regards to the photos I wanted along with every decision I made along the way, free of judgement. She has such a calming and reassuring presence and was fast acting when I needed help. Right after I gave birth, and the hospital staff cleared out of the room, I started to freeze. My teeth were chattering and my body was shivering uncontrollably. Rey kept a close eye on me and was quick to recognize something was wrong and immediately called for help. Turns out I was hemorrhaging. She has such a warm energy and a passion for birth work. I wasn't sure a doula would be worth the money when I was researching birth years ago and planning my future pregnancy, if that was in the cards for my husband and I, but looking back I would 1,000% hire a doula every time in the future, and I sincerely hope Rey can be there for me again.

“Rey has gone above and beyond to make sure I feel supported emotionally and physically.”
This pregnancy has been such an enjoyable journey with her on my team. I can’t imagine bringing my son into the world without her by my side. I am incredibly grateful for the advice and suggestions she has given me.

“Rey and I did our doula training together.”
I cannot speak highly enough of her intellect, her calming and warm demeanor and the empathy she exudes. She will take the time to get to know you and what your definition of a dream birth experience would be and she’ll help you prepare mentally, physically and emotionally. Rey has an extensive knowledge of pain management techniques and will support you and hold your hand as you work through labor and beyond. I would recommend her to any expecting parents!

“Doula Rey was the best doula!!!”
I still remember I was so desperate for some help because we don’t have any family around. And here came Rey, who has a great heart and was willing to help us by being a birth doula and also a sibling doula. Rey understood the difficulties that we face. She was willing to help out by being by my side when I just delivered my second baby and she waited until I transferred to the postpartum room. She even helped watch my first baby in the waiting room while my husband came to visit me. So appreciated your help!
