Urban Goddess Birth And Postpartum Doula Services

Checking in to update my previous review!
My final month of pregnancy was definitely the craziest. As I grew closer to my due date with no labor signs, I began to feel incredibly stressed and inadequate. Luckily, Daron was always there for me. She visited me at my house once, sometimes twice a week and would speak to me and my husband about preparing for the baby. Whenever I had worries, I could text her and she would call me back ASAP with advice/​a shoulder to cry on (let’s be real, I cried a LOT.)
Once I hit 40 weeks, she provided a myriad of resources and ideas for natural induction because she knew how important it was for me to not be chemically induced.
When I was 41+1, I went to the hospital for a check up and was told that I needed to induce that day because of my baby’s health. Daron got to the hospital very quickly and helped me assess my options. She was so great, that entire day supporting me and my husband despite the fact that my birth plan went out the window.
Because of her love and support, I was able to deliver a beautiful baby and would 100% hire her again if I ever have another.

Daron was with me every step of the way during my pregnancy. I’m a single mom, active duty military AND stationed overseas. She would wake up no matter the hour and talk me through every question I could possibly ask. When my son came 8 days early and I was alone at the hospital waiting for my mother’s new flight to come in, she stayed on call for every second. Daron has this uncanny ability to make the most tumultuous moments stress free and calm. She has been my biggest breastfeeding supporter and I wouldn’t be the mother I am today without her constant support and comfort.

I am currently using Daron for my doula services and I cannot express how calm and prepared I feel for this upcoming birth.
So far, she has been a valuable asset to my birth team. I did not know much about my options for birth, so she provided me with reading material, local support groups, and personal experiences to help me along. I had no idea how much control I really have over my birthing experience!
What I really love about her is the non-​biased support she has been giving. I feel very safe with her on my birth team and completely un-​judged (my midwife on the other hand has been stressing me out!). With my anxiety and limitations, she has been very considerate, always making sure to ask me if I am comfortable with touch.
She checks up on me *at least* once a week and is always available when I need to talk. I feel the need to add that I am not comfortable with my own mother being in the delivery room, but I most definitely need to have Daron there!
I am due this month, so I will update with much more detail after the birth of my total experience!
