Testimonials

Kassandra - "Kimberly was such a lovely, knowledgeable guiding hand as our doula. I had a planned birth center birth that ended up transferring to the hospital due to stalled dilation. She helped keep me calm and focused, helped my husband advocate for me, and was by my side every step of the way for 32+ hours. I am so glad I chose her as my doula and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking doula care."

Jennifer G - "Kimberly was my doula for my first birth and she was absolutely amazing. She helped me learn how to keep myself in a relaxed and positive state of mind during labor, rather than in a fear state of mind which can be so easy to fall into. She really helped me feel safe during the whole birth and I knew I could count on her for whatever I needed during! It was a truly beautiful and tranquil time!"

Kaleigh  - "Kimberly was an absolute blessing for me during my labor! With her classes and coaching I felt prepared for my birth! She was very kind and attentive to all of my needs and she went above and beyond to answer any and all of my questions ( I definitely had a lot!) My husband and I are so grateful that we had her to help us through this difficult but very rewarding process! We love you Kimberly! Thank you for everything! :)"

Shanti - "Now that I’ve settled into newborn life I wanted to give a special thanks to our doula Kimberly Dalrymple!! This woman was an absolute godsend during my labor. She is calming, patient, and really cares about you and your needs. I would not have made it through without her.  SO seriously… if you are on the fence about having a doula or aren’t sure, JUST DO IT. It is so worth it and makes all the difference in the world. Thank you Kimberly!"

Tressie - "Highly recommend if you're having any issues with breastfeeding especially as a first time mom. I was having lots of pain when nursing and Kimberly showed me tricks to help during a home visit and now my baby is nursing great and I have almost 0 pain now. So glad I agreed to get help from her."

Danae - "Kimberly was an amazing doula! My birthing plan did not go the way that I wanted, but she was there every step of the way to ensure a smooth delivery. She arrived to the hospital and was by my side trying to make me as comfortable as possible. I am so grateful that she was there to guide me during the hardest/most beautiful time of my life."

Andy & Angela - "I can’t stress enough how happy we were to have Kimberly as our Doula! Never did I think I would need a Doula until I reached my last trimester. The whole time I figured “I got this!”  Then reality kicked in. This was our first child and the only thing I was certain about was getting an epidural so I wouldn’t feel pain. After reading about birthing plans and about so many people regretting getting a Doula, I figured my husband and I could use some additional help. When we were considering hiring Doula, I knew that I wanted someone who would help me understand our options and to feel empowered to make good decisions about the birthing process.  I also wanted someone who would not push a particular type of birth or philosophy as well as not push their beliefs on me. From the first time we met Kimberly, we knew she was going to be a great fit for what I wanted in my birthing experience. 

Kimberly is extremely knowledgeable, professional, patient, and kind. She was a tremendous help to my husband and I before, during, and after the birth. We met with Kimberly a few times before my due date. She provided a lot of useful information (but not so much that we felt overwhelmed) and responded to our questions thoughtfully. She helped us formulate our birth plan and to feel as prepared as we could for the birth of my son. Throughout the process, I appreciated that rather than telling us what we should do, she explained the pros and cons of various decisions. I never felt like she would judge me if I decided to do things differently.

My birthing process wasn’t exactly as planned. I was induced at 37 weeks due to preeclampsia. I really didn’t know what to expect but Kimberly educated me on the process and encouraged me to get some rest. The next morning, Kimberly arrived at the hospital and jumped right in to provide support and answer any questions we had. I did eventually receive an epidural, not once but twice as well as a spinal block. The pain meds were only deadening the pain for short amounts of time and eventually stopped working. Kimberly helped tremendously when it came to easing my pain by giving my husband advice on pressure point, breathing and applying heat. She helped me feel more comfortable until I could receive more medication. Kimberly was with us every step of the way and I couldn’t believe how involved she was even though my labor went on forever. She was very attentive to my needs and always made it a point to ask me how I was feeling and if there was anything I needed. Even when I felt like I couldn’t go on she was right there lifting me back up and reassuring me that I was doing great and I would make it. You don’t realize how much those simple things help until they are being done for you or said to you. On the third day of being in the hospital and only progressing to 7 cm, it was time to make a decision since I was not progressing. I chose to go ahead and have a C-section. Kimberly waited for me to get out of surgery and made sure I was situated and had everything I needed. We talked through some issues I was having with breastfeeding and she helped connect me to resources. While at the hospital, Kimberly worked extremely well with all the medical staff. She helped me ask questions of the nurses and Doctors, which helped me feel a bit more in control of what was going on. My son was in the NICU for a week due to hypoglycemia and jaundice. Kimberly kept in contact with us to check on how we were both doing. A few days after being released from the hospital, Kimberly came to my house for our post-partum appointment. Kimberly was not only a Doula to us, but also a friend that I can’t thank enough for everything she did for our family. I could not imagine going through the birthing process without her."
