I was blown away when I met Hanna for the first time! She is very holistically-minded, knowledgable, and always puts her mamas first. She has been amazing to work with and I would definitely recommend her!

Hanna was a true blessing in my pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. Hanna provided so many recommendations throughout my pregnancy from spiritual preparation for labor to ways to ease discomforts of pregnancy. She supported me through an unexpected long induction at 34 weeks before the time she even had to be on call for us. Her presence during my labor was so calming and comforting and instrumental to my unmedicated delivery. She checked on me and provided so much emotional support during my baby’s NICU stay and visited us a couple days after my daughter was home and sat with us for hours as I processed everything. She was such a comfort to me throughout the unexpected twists and turns of our pregnancy, labor, and postpartum and I truly feel she was a key factor in the positive birth experience that I had despite everything that went astray. I felt completely safe with her from our first conversation and could not recommend her enough!!

Hanna made me feel so much more confident in myself for my first birthing experience. She is incredibly knowledgeable on everything pregnancy/birth related. You can tell she has a deep passion for her field of work. Choosing her as my doula was easily one of the best decisions I made! I learned so much about the birthing process & I was able to reach out to her with any questions I had leading up to it. I would recommend her to anyone who is trying to have a more natural birthing experience! My husband & I are SO grateful that we hired Hanna & we will definitely be using her for any other pregnancies we have!
~Allison and Austin
Having Hanna as my doula was without a doubt one of the best decisions I made for my birth and postpartum care. She is holistically minded, a woman of strong faith, and knowledgeable about so many things. It was very important to me to have like-minded women on my birth team and I was blessed to have found Hanna. After our initial meeting, I felt like I had known her forever, and I was very comfortable and felt like I would have a best friend at my birth. Her confidence in my ability to have a natural, no-intervention homebirth made me confident in myself too! Postpartum support is invaluable, and Hanna gives you that support along with wisdom, information, and genuine care for you and your baby. Being able to ask her all my questions as they would come up was so reassuring! Hanna is an amazing doula, and you’ll be so glad you have her with you.
~Sarah and Adam
We loved working with Hanna! She put us at ease right away at our first meeting - listening carefully to our needs and thoughtfully answering all our questions. Even when we moved from our “Plan A” birth plan, Hanna was right there with us, making Plan B work just as well. She was excellent about proactively reaching out to us periodically before and after birth; which was super helpful when I had so many other things on my mind/plate. Definitely recommend!
~Marjorie & Mike
We met Hanna pretty far along in my pregnancy, but we were still able to form an amazing bond in that short time.
She has been so supportive and informative. She put me at ease at our prenatal appointments and during labor itself.
This was my first birth and I'm so grateful to Hanna for her ability to keep me calm and relaxed during labor. She did such an amazing job quietly holding a supportive space for me when the contractions came in full swing and when it came time to push. She was so attentive throughout the labor; ensuring I was eating and drinking water.
I carried my baby in the posterior position and thanks to Hanna, we were able to spin her into a more optimal birthing position during labor! We couldn't have done it without her.
The postpartum care has been just as amazing. I really appreciate the "checking-in" texts and the postnatal visits.
I will always be grateful to Hanna for making this magic, life-changing experience an empowering one.

Hanna did a great job translating all of my wife’s concerns. My wife had a lot of anxiety postpartum, and Hanna supported her the whole time. She didn’t leave until me, my wife, and our daughter were both comfortable, and had all of our questions answered. I highly recommend everyone that can use Hanna as a doula.
