Jourdan was instrumental in the birth of my daughter in October 2016. My partner and I had a taken the birth classes but all of that was hard to remember during my exhausting 62 hour labor. Jourdan was the perfect support for us, meeting us where we needed to be supported. Whether it was massage, reminding my partner how he could help, coaching around breathing, help with nausea, or anything else we could need. I don't know how I would've gotten through it without Jourdan. My midwife was so impressed she asked for Jourdan's contact info at our first postpartum meeting. If you are looking for someone who has a knack for being exactly what you need at any moment, look no further.

The most important co-decision I made as a non-birthing partner was deciding on hiring Jourdan. Hands down.
Her approachability, kindness & just sense of humor really made us feel more at ease with bringing a lil' human into the world. You might have attended a bunch of seminars (online + in-person), read books, watched YouTube videos, but when the ball gets rollin' it's really invaluable to have a doula like Jourdan to advocate for you & guide you through the experience. Her rates were also very reasonable, especially considering the high level of care and attention she provided.
Jourdan, we'll never forget how you showed up for us, and we hope to see you at our child's 1st birthday!

Jourdan joined us four days post partum and stayed with us for four months. They looked after our newborn during the nights for 4-5 nights per week and made the transition to parenthood incredibly smooth. We trusted Jourdan entirely and are so grateful for their care. Jourdan helped us get into a solid eating and sleeping schedule and our daughter was sleeping through the night by 10 weeks. Jourdan is such a natural with babies and is still, to this day, one of the only people we trust with our daughter. Beyond how great Jourdan is with babies, they have a wonderful and easy going presence that really calmed me in those early pp days. Jourdan made great recommendations and was never overbearing with them. In addition, Jourdan was a welcome presence in our house --they are empathetic, thoughtful and considerate. We would highly recommend Jourdan and would be happy to talk on the phone about our experiences if you have any questions! 

I feel that my partner and I hiring Jourdan to assist with our son's birth was the best decision we've made so far in the adventure that is parenting. Our labor and delivery turned out to be long and very stressful. Having Jourdan there to support us was an absolute blessing. Her expertise, skill level and compassion were amazing and far surpassed all of our expectations. Jourdan is a pro with labor discomfort mitigation and was there to help my son's mother every step of the way physically and emotionally. From my perspective, having her there for support was priceless and I can say with 100% certainty that she will be there for our next child's birth when that time comes.
