Caring for you before, during and after the birth of your baby.

Had it not been for Terri and Tammy, by husband and I would have been lost. They remained calm, remained surefooted and reassured us that everything was ok. That no matter what they were there to hold our hands, and nurture us through this..... There is so much more that I could say about them. Nothing can compare to meeting them in person and having them usher your child into this world. Of all the things that I am grateful for on my son's birthday, it is three things - My faithful and dedicated husband, my son's safe delivery in this world, and two phenomenal doulas who loved us through it......Even to this day, I am honored to call both of these women my friends, and each parent they touch, each sweet baby they get to participate bringing in this world are all blessed to have CCD there.

Terri did an excellent job. I will recommend her to all of my friends having children in the future. Being by my side for support was extremely helpful.

Tammy's consistent support helped me so much during labor! I can't say enough about how it felt to be surrounded by both her and my husband during my labor. It was amazing!

I was privileged to have both Terri and Tammy during my first birth experience, and what an amazing experience it was to have them as my Doulas They are absolutely phenomenal! They stayed very focused and attentive to my every need for over fifteen hours during my labor. They were very encouraging, compassionate, and comforting. Their constant support and creative ideas helped me achieve my goal of a natural childbirth. They also offered consistent support to my family, and everyone including the nursing staff was amazed by them. They compliment each other and are an exceptional team. I highly recommend them to any expecting mother, and I will definitely utilize them for any future births. Individually and together they are outstanding women. I give them two thumbs up and five stars!!

Tammy was amazing, I don't know how I made it through my first birth without her! She helped me achieve my goals of a totally natural childbirth. She was a wonderful support throughout my entire pregnancy. I will always look back on my birth experience with fond memories, partly in thanks to her.

Tammy did a wonderful job in coaching the patient and helping her keep control. She was supportive with the nursing staff and maintained a good working relationship.
If I could give 100 stars I would! I just had my first baby, and Terri provided the knowledge, emotional, and physical support that I never knew my family needed. I only opted for a Doula because it was recommended by a dear friend, and I didn't want my first labor to be shorted in any way. I like to be prepared in all aspects of life, and my first birth was no exception. That choice ended up being one of the best I've ever made-- for myself, my husband, and my baby boy. Trust me, my standards are high, and she absolutely exceeded any expectation I had. Her experience and compassion truly set her apart from other Doulas, and anyone who chooses to include her in their journey is already blessed beyond words! Bree

Terri is absolutely amazing! I am so glad we decided to "splurge" on a doula for my second birth--and so is my husband who laughs at how naive we were, thinking we could do it alone. Terri did a superb job at mimicking my breathing so I could stay on top of the contractions. Terri coached me so well that I never made it to the point of desperation. I remained calm and collected throughout the entire process. Terri knows every trick in the book of helping you through this challenge. Her skillful massage was a nice added perk! Although she is not a professional photographer, the pictures she took were tasteful and I will cherish them immensely! I am sincerely thankful for Terri's skillful and caring support!
Terri is amazing! I was able to give birth to my daughter unmedicated in a hospital setting and I 100% could not have done that without her. The support she provided in pregnancy, in early labor, and active labor helped me manage fear and pain, and she helped baby get into a better position. She also took some photos during labor that we will cherish forever. Will absolutely be partnering with her again for future children. Kate

Terri came into the room and immediately put me at ease with her caring touch and was like a mother to me. She offered suggestions that really helped in my comfort during labor. She made our birth experience as calm as it could be and kept me focused on my breathing, cheering me on and encouraging me throughout.

Tammy & Terri made our experience wonderful. We wouldn't change a thing and we would love to have them at our next birth. I don't think my husband would have left to eat or taken a nap if they weren't there.

Tammy was the primary labor support for this mom, the labor progressed rapidly and she was there to help support the mom and dad while medical staff quickly set up for the birth.

Terri's knowledge and confidence in past experiences was obvious and helpful. Her knowledge of what was coming up (order of events) lent some stability to an otherwise foreign situation.

Tammy helped me focus more on the labor and my wife. She took a lot of the stress away.
